Break Up the Pistol Toting Evil.
Norfolk Virginian-Pilst.

Norfolk Virginian-Plet.
1t seems a little strange, when one
looks at it closely, that in this day, when
the most stringent regulations are
thrown around the purchase Of pOisons
such as laudanum, corrosive sublim ate,
carbolic acid, etc, pistols, which are the
instruments OF a great many more
deaths than pOisOns, should be sold
without restriction OF any sort.
The Washington Post, commenting
upon this subject, aptly describes it:
"Given fool who is a coward and an
egotist, and then make this creature
drunk, and put a pistol in his pocket,
and the chances are seven out OF a posi-
BILE ten that there will be murder in that
fellows haunts before midnight. Co
lumbia State.
The pistol toting evil is one which
has recently been engaging the at
ton of the public throughout the
country, but especially in the South;
and everywhere there is evidence OF
a willing disposition to conscien-
tiously apply an effective remedy,
If such can be found. To the accom-
plishment of this end two things, in
our opinion, are absolutely essential
One is to add to the severity in
fiicted for carrying concealed weap-
ons, without a permit, while the
other is to restrict the use, and there
fore the manufacture, of pistols by
placing a practically prohibitive tax
upon their sale In the latter direc-
ton Texas has already taken a de-
cided step, the Legislature OF that
State, at its last session, having
passed an act imposing tax OF fifty
per cent. upon the gross receipts de-
rived from the sale OF pistols within
the commonwealth. II other States
would take similar or even more rad
ical action in this respect and at the
same time make confinement in the
Jail or penitentiary the minimum
penalty for carrying concealed weap-
ons, without II permit from the
court, it is a safe prediction that
pistol toting would become compar-
atively infrequent and that the
criminal record OF the country would
shortly show ii marked improvement.
The experiment is at least worth
trying.

HENDERSON. NC THURSDAY, JULY 25, 1907.

AS to personal comfort, benches are
innumerable throughout the grounds
so there is abundance OF room for
people to sit down and rest. In ad-
dition, all the charming State build
ings along the water front are hos
pitably open, and their wide porches
and breezy rooms are favorite places
for repose. They, too, contain OBJ
lects worth seeing.
Restaurants are plentiful all over
the grounds. Prices cover an equal
ly wide area. At most places, how
ever, dinner Or supper may be got
ten at reasonable rates. For a glass
OF cold tea noplace is better than the
Formosan tea garden, not far behind
the Pennsylvania State Building.
Here dainty little japanese girls
serve delightful tea, and give you a

When it comes to shOWs-and every.
body does come to the shows-you
can spend all the money and all the
time you wish. Probably the Merri-
mac and Monitor is the most re-
markable thing on the grounds, but
it is we'll worth while to see the cyclo-
rama battles of Gettysburg and Sec
Ond Manassas, Ferari's trained wild
animals, to ride camel or a donkey
along the streets of Cairo, go for a
time into the very interesting NOV
ing picture show, Colonial Virginia.,
see the deep sen diver, the magical
transformation of Pharoah s Daugh-
ter and dozens of other shows of
more OF less merit. OF course, one of
the biggest things on the Warpath
isthe 101 Ranch, which is the great
est Wild West show which ever ap-
peared in this part of the country.
Perhaps the star actor Of this show
is the darkey (who will certainly be
killed some day., who jumps from a
running horse and throws both arms
around the horns of a Texas steer
(also running), and after being drag
ged on the ground for some distance
succeeds in twisting the bulls neck
until he throws him on his side.
Every one who visits the Exposition
should see Kiralfy's wonderful "Po-
cahontas" This show, which is
given in the old Horse Show Build
ing, about a mile from Norfolk on
the Ocean View line, is of the same
class as the famous '1492" and

ACQUITTED WITH HONOR.
President Not to Blame for Failure to
Pot Wild Turkey.

From the New York Sun.
1t now appears that the President is NOT
to blame for his failure to pot that Abe
marie county turkey. Assuming that the
returns from that illustrious incident are
all in, we gather the followingly highly
important particulars:
On the afternoon OF December 20 Mr..
Roosevelt took a pleasant iaunt OF seven
miles or go. covering the Blue Ridge foot
hills with characteristic agility and ease.
Arrived at Green mountain, he managed
with the assistance of Dick Mcdaniel. his
colored guide. to flush whole flock of
turkeys, which. however. escaped with
out losing a plnion of the smallest conse-
quence.
Immediately the President enseonced
himself In the nearest blind" and then
Dick Mcdaniel. in his we'll known ca
pacity as a turkey charmer began to
play upon his ppe--Pan Turing the hama
dryads from their grottes-and soon
naughty gobblers praneed into the check
cred woodland aisle. The President took
a rest" got a perfect bead, CRASHED his
teeth and pulled. The gobbler rose upon
a lelsurely and sneering wing. The Pres
ident fired twice more within fair range"
but the contemptuous bird sailed heavily
away unscathed.
The official report of the episode as
SureS. ana we recognize the Idcc OF Tue
hypothesis. that Mr.. Roosevets miss
was in every way honorable and in no
manner dlsgraceful. The gobbler in Ques-
ton Is described as tough and hb~d "
and it appears to be the fixed belief Of
the Presidents retlnue that its feathers.
or rather quilts, We're of such ancient
and indnrated quality as would have
turned the projeetle of n Mauser at
pointblank range and never attracted the
slightest attention on the part OF the
gobbler himself. The resident population
are reported as saying that Dick Me-
Daniel carries an old brass-mounted
army musket Of the pattern OF 1860, and
that with the usual charge of a handful
of No. shot he would have picked that
turkey clean at seventy-five yards. To
this We give no serious notice. The ques-
ton is not one of Dick Mcdaniel with
his obsolete weapon and his Boeotian
ways. The question is that of President
Roosevelt. who carried modern arms and
attacked Il Virginia gobblers in strict oh
servance of the square deal Even though
1t be true, as gossip has 1t, that the bird
had been plcketed with string and that
the Presidents first shot released 1t from
bondage we should still hold that the
Incident does equal credit to Mr.. Roose-
velts head and heart.
Acquitted with honor? Well, why not?

COUNT CREIGHTON'S
LAST WILL FOUND
Since One Found Was Drawn the
Count Sold Mine for 100000
Unaccounted For.

Omaha, Nob., February 12.-The last
will of the late Count John A. Creighton
has disappeared and all efforts of the
executors to find 1t have been unavailing.
A will made three years ago has been
found but it is believed there is a later
one Judge Woolworth, Count Creighton s
lawyer. died one year ago.
It is believed Woolworth drew the will,
but no record of it is among his papers.
Since the will which was found was
drawn Count Creighton has disposed of
much property. having sold one mine for
$l,GOO,000.
None of this has been accounted for
in the will which has been found and the
executors are sure there Is another Will
in existence. Matters pertaining to the
property are at a standstill until the miss
ing will can be found.
