This winter has been up to now comparatively
mild in this part OF the country, although there

counts from Maine and the upper Hudson indi-
cate that activity in cutting and storing ice has
not been lacking. while the mid-season Is not

if it puts up prices TO extortit rate figures in
the coming summer. 1t has had already plenti-
full opportunities TO fill its houses. both in New

New-York tribune., 1901-01-07

The passion for absorbing much contigu-
Gus territory as possible seems to have some
what abated among we'll known American
cities. So many abuses and evils have followed
the creation of greater New-York that munich
pal ambitions both in the East and the West
have encountered some obstacles. Chicago has
not yet taken the whole Of Cook County within
its borders. and Jersey City is staggered at the
thought OF swallowing the entire area of Hud-
SON County. Undue haste in such schemes is
exceedingly unwise.

CONCEALED WEAPONS.
A Dangerous and Growing Evil.
1t Causes Many Crimes.

President Mckinley was shot by a
man who had concealed pistol. 1t is
alarming to contemplate to what ex-
tent the practice of carrying concealed
weapons is followed in this country. 1t
is a great menace-a growing and most
dangerous evil. The courts of the land
should impose the heaviest possible
penalty under the law on all persons,
excepting officers of the law who have
arresting powers, who are found carry
ing concealed weapons. A man who is
in the habit of carrying a pistol usual
lv has murder in his heart. The prac-
tice has been the cause of the commits
sion of many daatardly crimes. The
carrying of concealed weapon is pref
judicial to society, and one OF the worst
forms of law violations. 1t is an enemy
of peace and good order.
A writer says: "No man can now de-
fend himself with a pistol. IL is almost
solely the instrument of the murderer
and assassin. When it kills, it kills the
wrong man. The having a pistol on
ones self is so far from being defense
that it constitutes d strong presumD'
tive justification of ones slayer. He
, who conceals an engine of death 10Th
ers on his person thereby makes him
self virtually an outlaw. When the
man accused of murder can prove that
his victim was carrying or was accus-
toned to carry d pistol he is nevercon'
victed.
'If pistols were abolished so that no
man could have one then no honorable
man would want one. At least seven
tenths of all murders in this country
would he avoided if pistols were abol-
ished. The right to bear arms does not
imply the right to carry pistol Inc

also stated that he owned the team he

A WOMAN'S CRAZY FREAK.
Set Fire to Curtains and Towels
in Several Lodging Houses.

With apparently no reason to
prompt the deed, Mrs. Sadie Laundon,
age %, a member of prominent fami-
ly of Cleveland, Ohio deliberately set
fire to the curtains and towels in the
Wedell House, the Forest City House,
Hollendon and Colonial hotels. At
forwards she set fire to four lodging
houses and saloons in which she sought
refuge before the police captured her.
That no conhagration followed is con-
sidered almost miraculous. There was
plenty of excitement. however, for the
three hours during which time she was
at large,
