A man was killed in New York last
week while repairing the wires of the
Brush Electric Light Company. No
one seems to be aware of the exact
manner in which the accident occurred,
butit is conjectured that his foot slipped,
and throwing out his hand to save him.
self he grasped the opposite or return
ing wire, thus making what is known
as "short circuit" and the electricity
passing through his body, killed him
almost instantly. The flesh upon the
plums of his hands hung i'm shreds,
and his features were contracted in an
expression of agony. The body was
removed to a police station almost OPP
posite the accident, and doctor sum-
moned, but the man was dead.
A prominent electrician, comment
ing upon the affair, and the danger of
handling uninsulated wire, said: "Elec-
tricity, as generated in this system,
might be used with frightful effect as a
defensive measure in time ofwar. Sup
pose 1 had in fort a steam fire engine,
with a hose that would throw a stream
of water a quarter of an inch I'm diane
ter 300 feet. Now, If had one end Of
a Brush machine grounded and the
other end connected with the water
passing through the hose, the very in
slant the stream of water struck a line
of troops that were advancing to at
tack the tort it would kill them. The
stream would then be really flexible
electric wire, and as it swept along the
line of men it would NOW them down |
like grass. If a thousand men were to
march up in a solid body, they could
all be killed in ten seconds. 1t would |
be absolutely impossible to take the
fort. 1t could be used with equally |
terrible effect in naval warfare. AS
soon as you make war SO destructive
as that, however, civilization will do
away with it."

a Somewhat Mysterious Death.

On Thursday morning last, Harriet Lati

MT. ). b. Pruitt, in Martin township. met
her death under somewhat suspicious cir
cumstances She and her husband, Robert
Latimer, did not live very peaceably toget{l-
er, in consequence of Roberts attentions TO
another woman, and on Thursday morning
some sharp words passed between them.
Alter breakfast he sent his eldest children
on 10 work hundred yards or two from
the house. and in about an hour ioined
them. Soon after he left the house the cries
OF some small children left with the mother
were heard, and continuing an unusual
Length of time, Robert sent one of his eldest
children to the house to see what was the
matter, when Harriet was found iifcless
and lying in the fire, her body being terri.
bly, burned from the waist up.
Col. II. Is: a. Robinson held an INQUEST
over the body on Thursday night, and after
o post-mortem examination Of the body
by DR.. G. v. Barnes and the examination
OF several witnesses, the jury returned
verdict that tho deceased came to her death
from causes to them unknown.
There was evident dissatisfaction among
the relatives Of Harriet with the verdict,
and considerable excitement prevailed ali
next day, caused principally by the discoy-
cry Of blood stains on the floor of Harriets
house and OF a bruise on the back of her
head: Col. Robinson again called the jury
together. on Saturday, and had the body
re-examined by Drs. NJ. c. Parker and G.
V. Barnes, who stated in writing that there
was no evidence of external violence to the
deceased, that sho was subject to epileptic
fits, and that it is the nature of that disease
to produce sudden falling. The blood on
the floor was accounted for by q daughter
of Harriet, who stated that hog had been
cut up in the house week or two before.
The jury returned the same verdict az be-
fore.

Anderson was the first county in the
State to adopt the Stock law, with the ex.
ception perhaps of Chester, both of which
secured this boon under the local-option
Act of 1876. In the outset it was adopted
by only few townships in these counties,
but was soon extended by legislation to the
territorial limits of the entire counties
The RcpI esentatives Of adjoining coun.
ties, realizing the advantages of the new
law, had it made of force in their respec'
tive counties by direct legislation. It in.
creased by going, and was in this wey
gradually extended to one county after an
other, until the Legislature, at its present
it the general law of the State.
The revolution i5 complete, and We ven
ture to say that 10 single law has been en-
acted by the State that will do more to de-
yelop and promote Its agricultural interests
and to benefit the country at large than this
same law. And it is because the revolution
has been as thorough az its results will be
beneficial that we are proud Of the position
of Anderson county as q pioneer in the
movement.
But it is not generally known that as An
derson was the first county to adopt the
new law, Anderson men commenced the
agitation and procured the Act under which
it was inaugurated within our bounds. AS
early rs 1865 or 80, we are informed, Maj.
b. +. Whitner commenced to urge upon
the Representatives of this county the ne
cessity and propriety of change of the
law. Though unsuccessful at first, he per-
sisted In his efforts, until finally, in 1873,
Col. John r. Cochran, then a member OF
the House from this county, in response to
his earnest request, introduced the bill,
which became a Law, under which the new
law was first adopted in Anderson. EH.
Senator Cochran il the author OF the Act
of 1873, but is frank enough to soy he was
induced to introduce it because Of the ear
nest solicitation and Jealous advocacy. OF
the measure by Maj. Whitner-a somewhat
rare coincidence of q Democrat and Repub-
lican working together in harmony (though
on measure not politically for the common
good of the country.
Thus It appears that while Col. Cochran
is the author of the original Act of 1873,
Mai. Whitner was the moving spirit
through whose zeal and influence it was
introduced. This circumstance points to
him as the original mover Of the law, and
as perhaps the first cause in series OF
events that led to its final adoption though
when once before the people of the county
It found friends enough, and he did no
more for its adoption than did several
others. and notably Messrs. Crayton, Ruck-
er and w. @. Brown, with whom he can
yassed the county in its behalf. :,
Thee gentlemen above named may well
feel proud of their agency in inaugurating O
law that is calculated TO work such change
in the material prosperity OF the country.

DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET
The Last Sad Rites.

The funeral of the late Bishop Scott
which took place from the old Scott home
stead, near Odessa, yesterday, drew together
large attendance of the ministers and laity
Of this Conference, as well as distinguished
representatives from other States. The
gathering showed how widespread was the
feeling of reverence and affection entertained
for the old Bishop, and the simple but
eloquent services were in fitting accord with
the life Of man who, although of modest,
retiring disposition, attained distinguished
position in the church by his eminent ability
and earnest devotion to the cause. The
little church, on the site of the one
in which he received his youthful
religious instructions, was crowded with
sympathzing friends, and sorrowful eyes
watched the remains as they were lowered
into the grave beside those of his life com
panion, who had gone before. The scene
was an impressive one that will never be
forgotten by those who witnessed it. The last
solemn services fell with earnest impressive
ness upon minds softened by this close but
sweet communion with death and the thought
naturally reverted to all, that at last this
faithful worker for the cause was receiving
the well-earned reward of his lifelong labor
of faith and love.
