Terrible Death of a Young Man
Near Meridian.

Meridian, October S.-One of the
most peculiar accidents in this sec
tion occurred yesterday AFTERNOON,
news OF which has just been received
here. Ed Brown, young man %
years of age. and unmarried. was
hauling logs for McBrides mill, To-
Gated at Topic, eight miles up the
Alabama Great Southern railroad,
and not returning with his load at
noon yesterday a number of men
started out from the mill to see w hat
the trouble was. They found the
oxen quietly standing in the woods,
and were horrified to see the dis
torted face of Brown just above a
loop in the heavy log chain. The
cause of death was apparent. Brown
was attempting to get an unusually
heavy log on the wagon by means of
chain when it slipped. He was
standing beside the timber when the
chain began to run" his neck was
caught in loop. He was literally
choked to death, doubtless before
he could make any outcrv. The
weight of the log had caused the
chain to cut into the flesh until the
j head was nearly severed from the
4 body.

Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
jackson, Oct. IA. b. Carter,
a Copiah' county inventor is now at
work perfecting a cotton picking de-
vice with which he expects to eclipse
the work of the machine now being
given practical test in Warrington
county.
Mr.. Carter's plan is to bring forth
machine that will pull up the
cotton plant by the roots, carry it to
theSinterior mechanism, and turn out
the lint at the other end. He has
working ,model prepared which yet
needs a few finishing touches, and
is now in Washington county to get a
few pointers from the device of the
Philadelphia inventor.
Some time since Mr.. Carter invented
machine which separates and hulls
English peas from the vines, and his
cotton picker will be somewhat after
this design. the principal change being
in the method of taking the cotton
fiber from the boil.
