Anniversary Number.

Our acknowledgements and greeting
are due to the Scientific American, the
receipt of whose handsome Anniver.
sary Number reminds US that our es-
TENED contemporary has completed
the first half century Of its existence.
1t was fitting that a paper whose range
of subjects is so extensive should de-.
vote its semi centennial number to q
review of scientific and industrial de.
velopments during the past fifty years;
and Messrs. Mum &c Co. are to be con.
graduated on the discriminating iudg-
ment with which this ambitious work
has been carried out. In n review of
this kind the difficulty ia SO to select,
condense, and express the essential
facts of the subject that the result
shall be a reference book and readable
story IN one. In the number before US
the writers have achieved this result to
a marked degree; the historical inter.
est and the literary style of the articles
being equally good. The illustrations
appear to have been chosen with a
strict regard for their historic interest,
and readers will linger long over such
views as those of the American built
steamer Arctic, the fastest vessel on
the Atlentic in 1852, Morse's pendulum
instrument of 1887 and his telegraph
receiver of 1874. Edison's first phono.
graph, the Patent Office models Of
Howe's and Wilson 5 sewing machines,
the first safety" bicy Gle, the first Nc
Cormick reaper, the original Franklin
hand press, cuts OF the early forms of
the telephone aud electric motor, and
many another engravings of historic
interest. The subjects which have
necessarily been crowded out of the
illustrated columns are more briefly
noted in a very readable article at the
commencement of the paper; md not
the least interesting lcatue is the I'D.
mirable essay ON the progress of inven-
ton during the past City years which

p;ath Of Joe y. brown.


A telegram was received here Sunday
evening that Joe N. Brown who has
been in the ary!um Tor the insane at
Knoxville. was dead. Joe had been
ahhiii ted for sane time BY some para
lyt;c trouble which affected his mind.
Lat fall he was taken TO Lyons View
with a hope that he might recover but
he continued growing gradually worse
until Sunday morning when he died.
He leaves a wife and one child. His
remains we're brought here last Mon.
day for burial this being his old home.
His mother lives here, also one brother
and they have the sympathy of this
entire community.
We elliptic following from the Kuox
vile Journal of the 9th: a horrible
accident was that at the Lions View
Insane Asylum yesterday morning in
which Joseph Brown, Of Joresboro.
Tenn, an inmate of the asylum, was
scalded to death in a bath tub. The
accident occurred early in the morning,
but death did not follow instantly, the
patient dying four hours after
he was burned.
Early yesterday morning Joseph
Brown, one of the inmates, was taken
to the bath room by one of the attend.
ants, E. A. Chevannos. The attendant
placed Brown in the tub aud turned
on the hot water. Finding the water
partially cold. Chevannes turned on
the hot water in full force, mover think.
ing that the water in the hot pipe had
been cooled by standing all night.
After turning on the hot water in full
force he turned on the cold water
slightly and leftfor the adjoining room
to get some clean wearing apparel for
the patient. The cold water was soon
all forced outof the hot water pipe and
the boiling water poured in on the poor
man who being n paralytic could not
get out of it and was scalded to death.
The attendant returning in a few min.
utes found the man writhing in agony
in the boiling water, there being at
that time about six inches of water in
the tub.
The attendant at once ~~Gdeavored to
-
take him out of the tub but the patient
being u paralytic and having no use Of
himself, besides weighing about 100
pounds, was very diificplt to take out,
so the attendant cut off the hot water,
turned on the cold and took ont the
stopper, after which he succeeded in
getting the man out of the tub. He
had been on his right side and by the
time he was removed his right leg and
hip and his right hand, with which he
had held up his body out of the water.
were very badly burned. lie was
placed in bed and every care possible
taken of him but he finally succumbed
four hours after. 1t was a most horri-
bic death and the patient suffered
agonies during the four hours he lived
after being burned.
The remains were taken charge of
by Hall and Donahoe and will be
shipped to Jonesboro Tor burial.
