THE CONCEALED WEAPON EVIL.
State Police Organization Wishes
 Stringent Legislation.


 Stringent Legislation.
 The state police association, which has membership of. four hundred and thirty-seven members, placed itself on record yesterday as in favor of more stringent state laws regarding the car- rytng of concealed weapons. The po- lice recognize, as no others can, the constantly increasing number of crimes which result from the carrying of weapons, and they will support any reasonable measure which provides an adequate punishment for any person who is found armed without first hav- ing obtained permission from proper authorities.
 The police may be excused if they fa- vor such a law for selfish as we'll as public reasons for several of their comrades have been shot during the past year while attempting to mage ar rests, and If every man Is permitted to carry firearms the occupation of a po- |liceman becomes a dangerous one in deed. Furthermore, any laxness in unlS Hauuer IS sure to create tilnlQlty among the best of officers and to mage towards of the bravest. It is bound to result, too, in a proneness on the part of the officers of the law to be quicg to shoot before beingg shot at, thus pro- noting the undesirable policy of pull the trigger first and mage inquiries af- terwards"
 Unless a person is authorizer to car ry a concealed weapon It's possession should be considered as evidence that he intends homicide There is mo other reason for carrying weapon among a law-abiding people. The pistol Is car ried for aggression. The man who has none cannot shoot. Abolish the prac- ticeof carrying weapons and thus re- move temptation-Ansonia Sentinel.

Talk Up The Presbyterian Enter
tainment

Lsk1A"cht
The Presbyterian. of our
town easily make up in quality
what they lack in numbers. These
good women are never idle, always
planning for.or doing those things
that promote the cause of their
Master. They had large part IN
tie recent repairs and general
renovation of their church build
iIg. Now they need additional
funds to further prosecute their
work, and in order to raise the
necessary means they will give an
entertainment on Friday evening
at the very elegant and commodi-.
GUS home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. w.
Adams. An exceedingly elaborate
programme, consisting of vocal
and instrumental music, readings,
recitations, etc., has been pre-
pared. The programme possesses
the spice of variety. The pathetic
and humorous, the grave and the
gay, have been SO lnterpersed that
there will not be a dull or monoto-
nous moment of the entire evening.
The intellectual feast, with its
accompanying social feature, is
all that the entertainment will
consist of. 1t will not be one Of
those entertainments that cost a
quarter to get in and dollar or
more to get out. No refreshments
will be served. Urge your friends
to go.

Hand. ONE Lee Scott came to
see US wilhelm Edgefeld on Sat-
urday. Lee is one of the few
young men who attend Clemson
college and return home to take
up the life ola practical farmer.
He has recently purchased q de-
sirable farm adjoining that of his
father, and being brimming full
of energy, perseverance, and OF
economic habits, he is destined to
own houses and lands and cattle
upon q thousand Clark's Hill
hills. Mark our prediction.
The ladies of the Presbyterian
church have made an enduring
reputation for themselves in the
matter of giving frst-class en-
tertainments. And We feel conf
dent that the one to be given at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs w. w.
Adams OH Friday evening, Janua-
ry the 26th, will not fall below the
high standard that they have
hitherto set. Moreover, we be-
lieve that the ladies will add new
laurels to their crowns by sur
passing themselves, if that be pos
sible.

So far as our information goes,
Newb berry county takes the ribbon
in the number of western mules
purchased this year. The, dealers
in the town of Nnwberry have
already sold 275 mules this sea-
son, and it Is conservatively esli-
mated that the number will reach
500 before planting time. The
average price has been about 5000
per head, which will make $780,
600 paid for western stock. Unless
cotton ls Is cents next fall where
will the farmers profit come in2
It appears to us that our City
fathers could no where else spend
a dollar or two so wisely as at the
entrance into the college grove.
A very small sum would either
widen the entrance, or erect
railing SO as to make it impossible
for any one to drive off the pre-
cipitous embankment. The coun-
Gil has very thoughtfullY and
wisely placed street lamp near
by but that does not fully meet
the need. 1t seems to be the irony
of fate that when light is most
needed it refuses, or fails from
lack of proper attention, TO give
light.

Woman Need Not
Tell Her Age
COLUMBUS JUDGE so DECIDES,
FREEING PRETTY MISSrLock-
Ed UP BECAUSE SHE
WOULDN'T.

COLUMBUS, o.. July 24.-Judge
Black of the Probate Court of Frank
lin county bas decided that a womsn's
age is a privileged matter when she
is a party to a lawsuit, unless 1t can be
shown that the question of her age
has a material bearing on the issue.
Judge Black is a married man, but
stIll on the sunny side of life and as
gallant man as ever sat on the iu-
dIcial bench in this State.
Miss Tennie Fristoe apparently has
no reason to be ashamed of her age. be
it what 1t may. She is petit and viva
cfous, and the curves of her lips give
no indication of the firmness which
led her to go to Jail rather than permit
a lawyer to find out publicly how old
she is. Miss Fristoe brought suit to
recover loaned money. When she took
the witness stand almost the first
question the attorney for the defense
asked was her age.
"I1l not answer that" said the wit
ness and her black eyes snapped.
you'll answer the question or go to
JAIL" said the attorney.
Miss Fristoe was advised by her at
torney to answer the question, even
though 1t was irrelevant, but she pos
lively declined and constable es-
corted her to Jail. Almost immedi-
ately she was released on a writ OF
habeas corpus from Judge Blacks
court.
The hearing ON this writ the next
day resulted in the triumph of Miss
Fristoe.

SENTIMENT IN PARIS.
The Feeling There That the Gar
Has RIundered.

PARIS, July 23.-The discussion of
the Russian parliament attracts the
widespread comment and disappoint-
ment of the people in this city.
Sentiment in all quarters. including
governmental circles, is unanimous
concerning the unwisdom Of the pre-
cipitate action Of Emperor Nicholas
and the gravity of the situation re-
sulting therefrom. The Tempe ex-
presses this view wheh 1t says:
"The Emperor's counseIors have
committed a fault which probably is
irreparabIe. The dissolution of par
lament and the postponement of it's
next meeting to March 5, 1907, means
that parliamentary guarantees have
been completely suspended for seven
months. The government dismissed
the assembly without attempting any
thing in the nature of loyal collabor-
alton, probably hoping that time Will
change the current of events before
the next session"
