AGES! P R L
Concealed w eapOns.

1t was evident in quarrel on Sunday,
between two men in this city, that both
carried concealed arms about the per-
son, and this quarrel came near growing
into first class duel at the Park. Had
this duel taken place, Richmond would
have become within tho next twenty>
four hours the Chicago Of Indiana.
The practice Of carrying deadly wea-
pons concealed upon the person. is one
that is generally reprobated in civilized
communities. There may be cases in
which the occupations of individuals call
them into places, and require them to
keep hours which would render it per-
haps dangerous for them to 60 unarmed,
but these are very rare. Many men have
suffered long terms Of Imprisonment for
using deadly weapons in the heat Of
passion, who would never have given
cause for such punishment if they had
not had the fatal instruments too COM
venlently at hand. Many accidents, too.
occur from the custom of carrying con-
cealed arms. Only a few days ago, i'll
Lou isville, lady moving in good society
was shot and very severely wounded
through the discharge of pistol which
accidentally fell out of the pocket of her
uncle, who was Baptist clergyman
though why a clergyman should 60
armed with pistols. it is difficult to see,
unless indeed he was the editor of re.
ligious newspaper.
Let those in Richmond who stick
shooters down in convenient pocket,
be dealt with according to law in every
case, and further trouble will be OBJ
waited.

Greedy has been rubbed and poked on every
side, concerning bis agricultural affairs, and
many s'diculoasly funny thags have been
published but here is one of the best:
"Mr. Greedy says the reason there is q
scarcity Of maple sugar this spring is, that
the farmers didn't more than half manure
their sugar seeds when they planted them
last fall. He says for everp seed you plan
you want whole pile of manure, when the
vines will be fairly weighed down with little
scolloped cakes. Farmers never will learn
anything they keep on fooling away their
time as they have the past year.
