Ca rying' n Pistol.

To our mind there is no practice
more peruieious in it's character than
that OF carrying concealed weapons
upon the person. 1t is against the
laws of the country, violation of
decent society and has no element
in it that can be commended. Ii is
10 the credit OF this city and our
citizens that such an outrageous hah-
1t is not INDUCED in now to that ex-
tent it was a few years ago. but
even now it is too often the case that
a man finds in his heart to buckle a
pistol around bis waist, or to slip it
into his hip pocket when he poes out
among his fellow men. Civilization
is peace; war is a relapse into bar
barianism and butchery. Tue con
slant carrying of weapons Of death
in times of pence Is not civilization.
and the practice BODIES no good to
any community 1t is bad enough
to hnd men mineling with their fel-
low men with a six shooter in their
pockets, ready to be used with daa /
ly effect upon the least occasion for
an outbuI St of temper, but when we
find them fourished in crowded cars
and unfortunately shooting among
men, women and children. it is high
time that the community take steps
TO abolish the infamous custom.
That two of the citizens Of Columbus
were not buried yesterday is not the
fault OF the man who held one of
these deadly weapons ia his hand
the previous day Fortune favored
them AMI the wounds are not fatal,
but the principle involved remains
The same We do not know the
man who did the shooting, but we 10
know that any man who carries a
pistol habitually upon his person is
liable to Use il under the least PROV
ocaion, and the community should
see that the law against carrying
concealed weapons is enforced to the
leties, This young man may regret
this, we are told that le does, but
rrgrels would be poor consolation to
the friends u those who are the vic.
tim of a pistol bal fired in a IN >ment
OF passion 1t should be Il lesson
that all who engage in this pernicjous
habit SHOULD take to heart and for
ever abandon 1t. There is nothing
manly. courageous or commendaoie in
it, and to indulge in it is degrading

What deep feelings the word calls
up. We have all had mothers, per-

What cares, duties and pleasures
does not that sacred Office bring? The
mother, Is she not the Prie7tress of
Humanity She ministers at the al
ter of life an ilfant soul is placed at
her breast. She tends Its first wants,
soothcs its first prayer and guides the
first lettering step cut into the great
new world of life.
Ye weary mothers think Of this.
When heart and body fails, when the
burden of life weighs heavily, when
the dull daily routine Jars and all ma
ture seems out of tune, think of it /!
Hush that impatient word, smooth the
brow as the little one locks upward in
to thine eyes, let him not carry that
forth in thoughts of thee, bring with
them only memories of peace and love.
Let thy face mirror forth only the gooo
and true in l,fe casting its reflex upoa

tie of life, and when the shadows in
that life deepen, still let thy form be

A friend, while ia our Office few
days since related little story that

tlemen who had married sisters aud
settled on adjoining farms. In each
family there was boy ten or twelve
years of age. Ole of these boys was
per n;ted by his father to SOW turnips

dissatisfied, perhaps fran improper as

Trouble In a Music Store.

A young lady went into music
store TIL other day after some sheet
music. The CLERK was good locking
but rather green, as the reader will

''Well, Kiss mo, Waltz"
The clerk looked like a keen clap of
thunder had awakened him from

quite muster the necessary courage
The lady didn't observe his cmbar
rassmeht, AMI cintinaed
"a last, L've found some one to
love me.
This was confusion wprse conform
ded, and the clerks face was as red as
a picked beet. He suffered and
stammered like blind OK in china

glanced at the paper moment and then

The clerk couldn't stand Il much
longer, aud by this time She lady OBJ

He began to retreat slowly, and fol-

A few feet more the young man re-
treated, and she called o.t:

knew that q lite as well she did, and
took another step toward the rear
She said

But he couldn't There was lnmp

But the clerk was almost out of the

The young man din't stop to accom-

sang out at the top of her voice

He heard it MT, and as she passed
out the front door she saw him cross

loud enough for ali to hear
