THE STORM KING
The pnmnea bone in Tnt- CIV.

On Sabbath niIht about $3.50 o'clock,
the wind suddenly varied from East
to South, aud the temperature rose p
degrees In one hour, being 6S degrees
at 1880 The velocity of the wind
constantly increased, and by II o'clock
had attained to about 30 miles per
hour. At ll:ij a heavy storm passed
over the city accompanied by thunder
and lightning and torrents Of rain fell
to the amount of 1l0 inches in one
hour. Total amount Of rain fall since
our last report is 2.54 inches. The ba-
rometer fell rapidly during Sabbath
night and at I A. NJ, yesterday, was
1888, the lowest 1t has been for some
time in this vicinity. After A. M,
it began to rise again. Yesterday the
wind attained its highest velocity, be-
isg go miles per hour at p. NJ.
We have not beard of any serious
damage being done to any property
with the exception of the tin roof Of
the NJ. T.. Church being loosened, and
the damage done to the county bridge
over the Tennessee river. The tin roof
on the church was torn loose, and
would perhaps have been blown eff,
had not n workman of HoXsie 81 De-
Pue's been sent up on the building at
once, who fastened it down again with
pieces of timber and nails.
The county bridge was raised of the
piers about the middle Of the river
and settled down again about half
inch from its former position on the
piers, while towards the top, the
bridge had swayed up stream about 10
or l. inches, and some ten or twelve
of the supports inside were broken
and split, and iron rods were bent
Wurkmen have been engaged for sew
eral days i'm tightening bolts, but they
had not reached out that far towards
the middle of the stream, and 1t is
thought that If the work had been
completed no damage would have been
sustained. As soon as the storm sub
sided, the upper part fthe bridgec NJ
menced swaying back i'm its place,
and the workmen engaged in making
the repairs yesterday evening
think that by this morning the
sprung timbers will have come back
to their place. The bridge when re-
paired will be as safe as ever. The
damage was caused by the wind get
ting in under the bridge, and having
no outlet it forced the bridge out of its
position at that point.

SHADE wENTuOREIAND TO HANG |
IN CHATTANOOGA TODAY.
The Facts Abou, His crimc and Trln,.

The Facts About His 'riinc and Trial.
From Knoxville Daily Chr ,ui,lc. Nov. 9ol.
According to the sentence Of the
Supreme Court of Tennessee Shade
Westmoreland will be hanged to-day
in the Jail yard in Chattanooga, be-
tween the hours of 10 A. NJ. and z. NJ,
by the Sheriff of Hamilton county.
Some facts about the awful crime for
which this man, to-day, suffers the ex-
treme penalty Of the law, will be Of
interest.
He was tried in the Law Court Of
Chattanooga, on Nov. 18Th and 10Th,
1873, before Chancellor ID. NJ. Key,
sitting toy interchange with Judge j.
Il. Hoyl for the murder of William
Emberlin, which took place on
the oath day OF May, 1872.
Through the courtesy of Mr. J. +.
Deaderick, Clerk of the Supreme
Court, We have had access to the trans
script, giving the testimony i'm the
cause, from which we gather the fol-
lowing facts:
William Emberlin was a man in bad
health and the father of five children
10y his wife, Sarah Emberlin. He re-
turned from Il six months absence from
his family a few days before he was
murdered. From the evidence aud
what we have heard outside of the rec
ord it seems that during this absence,
Westmpreland was living ON too init
mate terms with Mrs. Emberlin. On
Sunday, May II, 1872, W,stmorelaud
went 10 the house uf Warner, the
father of Mrs. Emberlin, ON
Waltreu's Ridge, near Chattanooga,
and there found Mr-. Emberliu. She
asked Wcstmurelaud, where the child
rem were. He said that "Bill had Ia
ken them away She said he would
/ throw them IN the pond aud asked
him to go after tuvm aud bring
them back If he had to kill " Bill
! They met few hours afterwards at
| Warmers, and Wcstmorelaud began
violently abusing Emberlin, who took
10 without remoustrauCe. He had Il
walking stick, but made no demon
/ STATIONS. Wes.moroland without pro-
vocation drew a pistol and after some
scutlle shot Emberlin three times, once
| in the foot, once i'm the arm and once
! through the body near the heart. En-.
| berlin went of to the end of the lot
moaning. Westmoreland afterward
| threatened TO " finishn him If he did
not stop that grooming"
These were the facts proved, tC
which no defence seems to have beer
made. The jury found n verdict o
murder in the first degree. A new
trial was refused and an appeal taker
to the Supreme Court. This court
affirmed the Judgment of the cour
below, Chief Justice Nicholson sen
fencing the prisoner to be hanged to
day in Chattanooga.
Westmoreland is large man ahou
middle age and seems to have had
bad character. He threatened to Kill
Emberlin because he said he "coul,
dress Mrs. Emberlin like lady ant
take care of the children The wo
man was tried as an accomplice, bu
| acquitted.

Another Sad Accident.

A few nights since Mrs. Jane Green,
wife of Jesse Green, swho resides at
Washington College, was complaining
of not being we'll, left her bed and
went to the fire and it is supposed fain-
ted and fell on the burning Goals.
Being a large lady it required great
effort on the part of Mr.. Green and
his son to remove her from the fire.
She was found to be badly burned on
the arms, breast, face and one eye is
entirely burned out. She is now not
only suffering from the effects of the
fire, but has an attack of typhoid fe-
yer. Her friends and neighbors think
her recovery extremely doubtful.
\ daughter of Mrs. Green, when
she first saw her mother in the con-
dition aboye stated, tainted, fell on the
bed and injured her spine seriously. -

THE STORM At TUsCUMnIA.
Railroad Bridge swep, Away.

Our dispatches this morning give a
distressing account Of most terrific
tornado, which swept over the pleas
ant town of Tuscumbia, Alabama, on
Sunday evening. 1t is n story of de-
vastation, seldom equPlled in this
country. Tuscumbia is the county
seat Of Colbert county, and has pop
ulation of about fifteen hundred souls.
1t is situated on the Memphis and
Charleston road, an accident on which
caused by the destruction of bridge,
adds another item to this distressing
chapter.
The result of the storm, it will be
seen, is that hundreds of people are
destitute and homeless. The Mayor
appeals for aid Knoxville might
worthily bestow some of her charity
here.
In addition to the particulars given
i'm our dispatches, we are kindly per-
mitted by Caps. Jaques to copy the fol-
lowing telegram from Mai. Ross:
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. %, 1874.
CAPT JOSEPH Jacques, @. NJ: a
terrible storm 9t TusCumbia last night
carried away Spring Creek bridge.
The engine of mail train No. ], with
the mail and baggage car, ran into the
creek. The engineer was slightly
scalded. No one else hurt. 1t is re
ported that the storm blew down a
number of houses and number of
persons were killed.
(Signed) w. j. Ross, Sup't.
1t will be seen from this, that the
engineer is not so badly injured "a re
ported in our press dispatches.
The mail train alluded to left Mem
phis at noon on Sunday and was due
at Tuscumbia at s p. VI. The bridge
destroyed is about 100 feet long, and il
will probably require several days to
replace it.

In Lafayette college. Ecsiou. popu4yi.
Vauin.
We have received u catalogue, adj
dress by the President of the Insi,tu-
ton, and other printed descriptive ac-
counts of the school of practical science
at Easton, Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Pardee, one of the iron kings,
has given to this school, first aud last,
a sum about equal to that which has
been given by Commodore Vanderbilt,
to the Vanderbilt University at Nash
vile. Others have also contributed
considerable sums, making the aggre-
gate Of the capital invested in the
scientific department os Lafayette
College somewhere about one million
of dollars. This school of practical
science belongs to the class of schools
to which the young man must look
who wishes to become thoroughly
grounded in the great fundamental
principles Of science involved in the
various mechanical industries. Thor
ough instruction in Metallurgy, Min
ing, Road Construction, are among the
great objective points aimed at. But
we believe a young blacksmith
or house builder, who had been
successful in business, but realized
difficulties from defects in early edu-
cation, might in many instances do
well to takSholiday for year or two,
and devote that holiday to scientific
study in such a school as the pardee
Scientific School at Egston. We think
10 can not he doubted that many
young man OF talent, aud i'm possession
OF every natural quality requisite l1r

mechanical engineering, has fUIga
( from inefficient education ju science,
and that often want of instruction
/ in drawing has been of itself sufficient
| to cause such failure We hope the
/ time is coming when we shall have
| such schools of science ia the South.
/ The science of melaliurgy, is of an i'm
porlauce To- East Tennessee, which
! eau hardly be estimated. Our coal and
/ iron are so abundant that no truthful
/ man, having respectable knOwled re
l of the subject, would dare to say the
quantity at present could be estimated.
/ Limestone 10 serve as tluX is every
where abundant. Millions of dollars
almost countless are thus represented.
! But That immense capital IS for the
time being, nearly all oft, dead capital /,
and whatever may be our success i'm
attracting labor and capital hereafter
to engage in the development of this
wealth, a very high degree of skill
must also be engaged in it. That skill
is not only needed in the processes by
which the pig metal, wrought iron
and steel are obtained from the
ores, but also in the mining, and in
the road constructions necessary for
placing the materials in the furnaces
and rolling mills, and then in market.
We think any of our young men
who contemplate going outside of the
State to obtain information on practi-
cal science, would do well to take into
consideration the claims of the Pardee
school at Easton.
And we will conclude 10y saying, all
honor to such men as Pardee and Van
derbilt, who contribute so literally 10
the education of our youth, aud TO the
prosperity and greatness Of the ma
ton.
