About the most deadly weapon
in the world is the pistol OR gun
which the careless pointer
supposes is unloaded. A weapon
of that kind never misses fire
and, strange to say, the aim OF
the one who supposed" it was
unloaded is never bad. The fact is
that no one has any right to sup
pose' about a thing of that kind,
and nobody but a consummate
fool or a reckless scoundrel ever
does 'suppose'that gun which
he playfully points at another is
unloaded. Unless man is abso.
lutely sure, beyond the perad-
venture of a doubt, that a gun is
not loaded, there is no sort OF
excuse in his pointing it at an.
other;and the only safe thing il
not to do such fool stunt ever
then. 1t sometimes happens thai
men of sense kill in hot blood O.
even deliberately, but by pointin.
a gun supposed to be unloade'
at another-never! 1t is unthink
able. A lad met death in Fay
etteville the other day that wa,
and the coroner's jury said
was accidental. 1t was due
cri minal carelessness, no less, an
the criminally careless one shoul
be punished.

When President Taft is tour
ing the South and West this fall
he leaves Beverly, Mass. ,on the
18th inst. we believe-those who
are appointed on committees at
various places to do the honors
need not worry about what to
wear. The announcement has
been made that frock coats and
silk hats will not be worn, so the
boys may stack up in their
hand-me-doWns with no one to
molest or make afraid. This an
nouncement will doubtless bring
JOY to many anxious hearts.

COMMENT.
FLYING RECORDS.

One record is good in airship
flights until another is made.
During the contests last week at
Rheims, France, of heavier-than-
air flying machines a new record
was made almost every day.
Thursday Hubert Latham, the
French aviator, established a
new worlds record for distance,
154 kilometers $50 meters. or
95.88 miles. Latham covered
$50 kilometers in 2 hours, 13 min
utes and 9 seconds, and the full
distance in 2 hours, 18 minutes
and 9 3-5 seconds, also world re-
cords, the flight being at the rate
Of about 68A kilometere an hour,
as compared with 534 made by
Wright at LIE Mans and a fraction
under so made by Paulhan at
Rheims last Wednesday. On Fri
day Henry Farman, an English
aviator, until that day an un-
known quantity in the aviation
contests, made a new record. In
a biplane of his own design he
broke the worlds record for du-
ration of flight and distance in a
heavier-than-air machine and
won the grand prix de la Cham
pagne-the endurance testify a
remarkable flight officially re-
corded as 18O kilometers Ill. 78
miles-in 3 hours, 4 mintes,56 2-5
seconds. AS a final flourish he
covered an extra ten kilometers
and remained in the air ten min
utes after the hour that the time
keepers, under the rules, ceased
to keep a record of the flight.
Saturday another record was
made, the international cup of
aviation, known also as the Cor
don Bennett trophy, being won
by Glenn H. Curtiss, the Ameri-
can aviator, in the fastest aerial
journey of 20 kilometers az. az
miles, ever accomplished by man.
His time was Is minutes, so 3-E
seconds. Curtiss broke another
record Sunday, closing aviation
week, when he made the rounds
of the course, 80 kilometers, al
the greatest speed. The lions
share of the honors OF the meet
ing came to the United States.
Wonderful flying stunts are
now matters of daily record ant
he must he skeptical indeed whe
doubts that in the near future
flying machines will be in prac
tical everyday use. ThomasA
Edison, than whom there is NJ
greater authority on matters sci
entific, says that within ten years
the United States will be using
1OO-miles-an-hour flying m a
chimes to carry the mails ant
that these machines will also car
} ry passengers.

1t is said that Georgia is to

pany that will insure only total
abstainers from strong drink, of
course. No objection, to be sure;
but for ourself, we should rather,
if we were going to branch out,
take insurance in a company that
would require all its policyhold-
ers to eat properly. We believe
that it is safest to let strong
drink severely alone, but the mar
