There was something In Cecil Hartley's man
ner toward women which exactly hit the happy
medium between coldness and ofiicious "fussi-
ness" Perhaps the charm lay In his evident
pleasure In rendering whatever service lay In
his power. No woman ever felt under any bur
densome obligation to him for such service; on
the contrary. she felt she had conferred favor.
and was happy accordingly.
Both Mrs. Armytage and her niece expert

handed down the slippery. swaying accommo-
dation-ladder. and helped to their places in the
broad fiat -bottomed harbor- boat which already
held their modest supply OF luggage.
Mr.. Hartley had just seated himself near
them and their boatman-a lean. bright-eyed
old Genovese sailor-was In the act OF preparing
to push off from the ships side when unex-
pected and startling development OF the situa-
ton occurred. A crowd OF tall and swarthy
Arabs returning home In the steerage after
having taken part In some "Wild East exhibit

ladder into the boat in which the terrified ladies
were sitting while their less fortunate fellows
clung with long. dirtbegrimed. slender yet SIM

The danger was obvious and imminent, and
for a minute Cecil could do nothing to avert It,
He had been forced right into the stern by the
FIRST unexpected rush. and before he could fight

had made good their footing In the boat, and a

MURDER WITH CONCEALED WEAPONS.

The man who carries concealed weapon
is "A murderer at heart, ana should be So
recognized.
His only object in arIuing himself is to
kill somebody, and it is impossible to eX-
cuSe that deadly design with the pretcnsc
thatthe weapon is to he used in self defense
or for protection against robbery
In any event. 1t is better to he robbed
than take human life, and it is easier to
run away from danger than to engage in
an unnecessary shooting Scrapc
Laws are created to defend honor and
afford protection. Courts are citadels to
which we resort when prosecuted and
there Is no necessity for carrying deadly
weapons.
This dangerous practice is becoming
entirely too prevalent. The habit seems
to be growing, and frequent arrests are
made of blood,hirsty individuals bent on
destroying a fellow being.
Nearly every case of shooting or maim-
ing can be credited 10 the concealed weapon
craze. and every person convicted of this
offense should he made to suffer the ex-
treme penalty of the law.
The ordinance prohibiting the carving
OF concealed weapons, provides that any
person convicted of concealing about his
person any deadly or dangerous weapon,
such s a dagger, air gun. pis.ol. bowie
knife, dirk, razor, sword cane slung,shor
or brass or other metal knuc lil es within the
District of Columbia shall, ppun such con-
viction, be fined and compelled to nav
not less than $50 nor more than $50 for
each offense.
The officers, non-commissioned officers,
and pIivates of the United States army.
and members OF any regularly organized
militia company are exempted from the
penalties of this law when on duty. All
other persons are subject 10 it's provisions.
Suggestion has been made that punish
ment for carrying concealed weapons is not
adequate. Instead of regarding it as a
misdemeanor, subject to fine only. the of

but among the vagabonds themselves this
appelation is restricted to a certain class,
says the Chicago Times Herald. A hobo
is tramp who begs, but will work rather
than commit crime. A criminal tramp
who does not hesitate to commit larceny,
robbery or burglary is known among the
fraternity as a ,'yag." The latter class
never works unlessunder penal duress The
"yas'' never affiliates with the hobo and
each is proud of his exclHsycness. The
usual saluiation by Which unknown tramps

tramp patois johnny Gattleman'' means
freight tram, and the greeting is pIac-
