Will Practice His Own Case.

Quite an unusual incident occurred
at the Office of Circuit Clerk + G
Barrass Wednesday. J. w Keown.
who has been engaged In litigation at
various times for several years, walk
ed into the Office, threw down a docu.
ment made up OF four pages OF Gle sely
written legal cap paper and directed
that the clerk file his lawsuit. He
said that he had prepared his petition
himself and proposed to practice his
case. After some hesitancy the clerk
filed the paper which Mr. Keown de-
nominated his petition and issued
summons for the defendants, J. T.
Smith and Others There was moth
ing else left for the clerk to do In the
matter for the law gives anyone the
right to practice his own law suit.
We examined the petition and found
that 1t contained some interesting
statements and very fair composition
but few If any OF the allegations are
facts, II properly stated, sufficient to
constitute a cause OF action.

The law making it an ofense, pun
ishable by fine and imprisonment, to
carry concealed deadly weapon, is
violated with more IMMUNITY, perhaps,
than any other law embraced in the
Kentucky statutes. Boys from the
age of twelve to seventeen years VIC
late the law ottener than do men OF
more mature years, but as a general
proposition, their violation of the law
amounts to little, as they seldom hurt
themselves or anyone else with the
pistol, their most coveted weapon,
but when the "gnn,' the knife and
various other deadly weapons are
found concealed on a man of mature
developments-a tough-on whose
person they are usually found, nine
times out of ten that individual would
do hurt or harm with them if favor
able opportunity IL afforded MIN. A
more rigid enforcement of the law by
imposing the full extent of punish
ment when an individual has been
found guilty will materially lessen
the tendency of the tough class to in
wade society with pistols, knives and
other deadly weapons in their peck
cts, and a little paternal foresight
would do much to keep the boys from
unthoughtedly, and sometimes un'
knowingly violating the law prohibit
ing the carrying of concealed deadly
weapons.

MUCH TALK OF WEATHER

New York June 27.-The cotton market
opened firm at an advance Of 15@22 points
on the old and of 7q1O points on the new
crop. Positions in response to better
cables then expected, and talk of too
much ain N Texas, while 1t was also
claimed that the weather in the eastern
belt was too dry and hot with showers
forecasted too local in character, and
too scattering to relieve the situation.
Shorts seemed to be covering from the
start, but they were evidently less ex-
ercised over the present condition of
the crop than they were over the posi-
bility of adverse conditions in the fu-
ture and the buying consequently pro-
crossed in a liesurely manner with the
advancing tendency interrupted by fire.
quent reactions that In some instances
helped prices slightly to the opening fig
ures. The forecast for continued rain
in Texas gave the market another slight
upward push and in the afternoon re-
ports that one of the leading southern
operators was an active buyer of the
late months In New Orleans, also helped
to energize purchases with the market
finally steady at about the best price of
the season, a net advance of 5000 points.
Sales were reported of $4,000 bales.
Generally speaking, trade accounts con-
tinue poor, ana it seems the more gem
eral idea that the crop Is progressing very
satisfactorily, but there was some uncer-
tainty as to the showing Of the weekly
crop tomorrow, and 1t was believed that
shorts would attempt to cover between
now and next Friday when the market
will close over the Fourth, while on the
following Tuesday the July report Of tho
government will become available.
