Came Law in Highland.

BY chapter Alb of Acts of '93-4
it is made unlawful to kill or capt
ure a deer or chase the same with
dogs, in the county Of Highland, ex
cept between the ifs day of Octo-
Der and the first day OF December
of each year.
By the same act the law for kill
ing turkeys and pheasantS was IL t
changed in Highland and the gen
eral law applies. which providesthat
they may be killed between the 10
day of September and The 1St day
Of February Of each year
The misrepresentation as to the
law, perhaps grew out Of the fact
that by the act first mentioned it
waa made unlawful to kill or capt
ure pheasants or wild turkeys IL
the counties of Allegheny. Bath
and Augusta. except between Oct
1st and Dec. Isl Of each year, but
this law only applies to Highland
SO far as deer are concerned.

Carrying concesIed weapons.

The Greenbrier Independent, com
menting upon the punishment Of
one Douglas, who was sentenced to
the penitentiary for life for killing
Thomas Reed in that place, gives
the following wholesome advice up
on the question Of carrying conceal
ed weapons;
Few, if am, wEo heard The eVi-
dence. entertain the doubt that the
prisoner fired the shot which put
an end to the life Of poor Tom Reed
But without commenting particu-
larry upon the verdict, which we
think is fully sustained by the evil
dence. we again take occasion to
impress upon the going men Of the
country the less N this ease so for
chilly teaches, showing the folly and
dangerof thus carving deadly weap
ons concealed about the person. -
Douglas started out last Christmas
morning with number OF his
young friends for day of fun and
frolic. According to the proof, at
least three of these young men. OF
whom Douglas was one, had pistols
in their pockets, which, during the
day, they amused themselves in
shooting Of, much to the annoy
ance of the lawabiding people OF
the vicinity. Had they all e
their pistols at home that morning
Tom Reed IA quiet, inoffensive man
would not have been brutally
murdered and Kenos Douglass, III
stead of being in jail under sentence
of confinement for life in a State
prison. would now be at liberty en-
loving the comforts of his home
the society of his friends and IL
free air of the mountains.
Young men of Greenbrier, VT
beg you to consider that i'll carry
ing pistols or other deadly weapon
concealed about your persons YOU
are violating the laws of your State
laying yourselves liable to indict
ment and prosecution and running
the risk of getting yourselves mt
lust such troubles ds that iii whlc'
Young Douglass now finds himself
IF you will persist in this un'a'
full practice, for which there can b
; no justification or excuse in civil
lied country like this, then we in
woke the juries and the conrts t
visit upon you the full penalties @
the law you violate"
What the Independent says
equally apple 'ble to Highland G
any other section. The people {
Highland have realized the un
fortunate results of the habit {
carving concealed weapons. Their
is no sort Of an excuse FOR it.
