tracted smallpox several days ago, died Sat-
urday morning, and was inferred in the
afternoon. This was the first case among

escaped the contagion. There have been
no new cases in the past few days among
the colored people in Tadetown. The Kelly

The Citizens Vote for Annexation More
than Two to One.
According to publication and proclama-
ton made in due form of law, permission
having been granted in a legitimate way by
the board of mayor and aldermen, an cleo
ton was held yesterday in that thriving and
prosperous suburb, Mechanicsyille, on
the subject of annexation to the corporation
of Knoxville. Those in favor of annexation
voted Corporation" and those opposed
voted ''No corporation"
The matter was pretty thoroughly worked
up and a heated contest was conducted, Blu {
the corporation" ticket won an easy and
decided victory, the vote standing 157 for
corporation" to " against, thus giving
majority of 80 for corporation, which was
more than two to one, in total vote of
234.
1t will be remembered that an election
was held in February, in which annexation
carried by a vote of 1872 to ST. The pro-
ceedings were not altogether regular. how
ever, and it it was not lawful election.
The reading public are familiar with subse-
quent proceedings, and the bitter fight that
was made in the board, but the matter was
finally settled in favor of allowing the
Mechanicsville people to hold an election
according to law, which they have done.
and the result speaks for itself. 1t will
certainly be no longer commended that the
people are so overwhelmingly against an
nexation. This decision is final, as far as
the voters are concerned, and we presume
the proper steps will be taken in due time
to extend the city limits in that direction.

Blooming Grove Academy.

Blooming Grove Academy.
Knox COUNTY, June 2.
Mr.. EDITOR: The teachers of this sec
ton have had quite pleasant time during
the past week in Normal Association, con-
Quoted by Supt W. C. Gibbs. Although it
has been quite busy time, twenty-five
teachers have been in attendance, and the
people in the neighborhood, generallya
turned out to see the good work go on.
The entire time was devoted to common
hool work, such as our teachers have to
perform daily.
Superintendent Gibbs distinguished him
self during his stay with us, as an able in
structor in Normal work, and manifested
q lite an interest in the cause of education
i which the country has sent him forth to
work He seems to be the right man in the
right place, and does not conine his work
to towns and railway stations, where the
whole matter of common school work is
overreaehed, but goes forth into the coun-
try and works with and for the people, and
comes down into an atmosphere where the
common school teacher can breath with
impunity, and where even the boys and
girls can comprehend his instruction. He
knows when to work, where to work and
how to work.
If we could always have such men as
Superintendent Gibbs for leaders in Knox
County, and in other counties in thu State,
Tennessee would not be found Tagging be-
hind in education, but would soon be placed
in the front rank. 5.wD.
