What Electrician- %,ay of Taking Life by
Means of a Battery.
(From the New York Star.)
Some New York physicians think that
improvements in hanging are urgently
needed. They want to make the death
penalty easy, pleasant and delightful.
Electricity has been proposed by them
for capital punishment, and the Legisla
ture yesterday considered a bill to sub
stitute the electric battery for the hang
man's rope.
An eletilician at the E :son building
in Pearl street. where electricity is man
ufactured for illuminating purposes, was
yesterday asked how people might be
killed with neatness and dispatch by
electricity. He said that it was the
easiest matter in the world. All a con
aemned man would have to do at the
hour and moment when he was to leave
the world for brighter climes, would be
to.take hold of two wires, one connected
viith a positive battery and the other
with a negative battery. Acting thus as
Aconductor between the two wires the
electricity would go through him like a
stroke of lightning. He would die in an
infinitesimal fraction of a second. His
taking off would be as painless as it was
sudden. He would never know what had
hit him.
He might stand on two plates, receive
the electric current through his toes and
die with his boots on. He might sit in
a chair with his feet resting on the plates
and die comfortably.
Kling the condemned by electricity
is a-humane, civilized and scientific way
of disposing of them. A man is usually
sixteen minutes in dying at the end of a
hangman's rope, and he usually suffers a
great deal before death comnes to relieve
him. A one-cell battery would kill all
the prisoners who will ever be hanged in
the Tombs under the present law. The
only people oppose d to the use of elec
tricitv in capital punishment are the
hangmen, and they are opposed to it be
cause it would throw them out of work.
-If the gallows are taken down all the
hangmen in the country will strike.
BisHOP SiTPON'S TO3B.
The Beautiful 1ausoleum Erected by Mrs.
Simpson in West Laurel Hill.
(From the Pbiladelphia It-cord)
On the edge of a declining slope in the
northwestern part of West Laurel Hill
Cemetery stands the grand mausoleum
erected io the memory of Bishop Simp
son by his widow. It occupies an eleva
tion overlooking a beautiful landscape,
through which wends the narrow
Schuylkill. The structure, composite
gothic in style and cruciform in shape,
is 22 by 18~ feet in dimension, includ
ing the wings at the side, and 21 feet
high from its base to the top of the
crosses on-the main building. It looks
like a'miniature church. There are five
windows and four trefoils of cathedral
stained glass giving light to the cham
. ber which is 19 by 10 feet in the clear.
Eight catecombs, four on each side.
bt of white Italian marble, occupy
the wings of the structure, while in the
centre of the chamberis the sarcophagus
in which rests the dead body of the
bishop.
Upon the end of the tomb is the in
scription: "I shall be satisfied when I
awake in Thy likeness." Then follows:
"Matthew simpson, Bishop of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. Born,
June 21, 1811. Died, June 1S, 1884."
The lot upon which the mausoleum is
erected is circular in shape, ninety feet
in diameter and surrounded by a granite
coping. The prevailing feature of the
whole structure is its simplicity.
THE SOUTH'S IP OVEMENTS
Some of the Leading Companies Organized
Last Week.
The Tradesmnn's weekly report of
new enterprises in the South shows that
the remarkable development that has
been in progress for some months past
*in all sections of the South is onthe in

Among the leading orgarizations of
the week reported by the Tradesman are
the following:
* Kentneky &c Arkansas TLand Company,
of Louisville, Ky., capital, 52,500,000.
Peacock Coal, Iron & Improvement
- Company, of Blirmingham, Ala., with
$200,000.
Cotton Press at CGainesville, Texas,
with $10,000 capital.
-Cotton factory at Shelby, N. C.
Electric light works at Shelbyville,
. Als.,.and Dallas, Texas.
* .Three furniture factories, one at Win
ston, N. C., one at Rome, Ga., and one
atILouisville,. Ky., the latter with $500,
000 capital.
Gold mine at Marysville, Tenn.
Cumberland Iron and Band Company,
of Henderson, Ky., with $8,u000,000
capital.
2Black Ba Iron and Railroad Com

tal
Four marble companies in Tennessee

fNine railroad companies; two in Ten
ness., one in North Carolina, one in

The~ Tradeemaan also reports that cot
ton mills at Chae'nooga, Waco, Texas,

will be considerably einlarged.
A large number of smale industries
arealso reported.
Thbe Anderson Road Law.
Senor Muirr'v hats raised a row in his
county by his new read lav, and sby
trying to satisfy his constituients. The law
provides that the reads im Andeisen county
must be worked enouigh days to put and
keep them in thorough order, and the pro
visions of the bill are stringent enough to
accomplish this end. There is, also, a
smanll ievy made for macoatmiang parts of
of the road which are so spomgy that ordli
-nary work cannot cure the defects. The
law is an exellent one and we wish it had
been cxtecded to tits county. The howl
is raised principally by Mir. 31urray's oppo
nent, who would ;ee any opportunity to
render him unpopuiar.--<patanflourg H~er
