The Vicksburg Herald, in very
able and lengthy editorial condemns
the carrying of concealed weapons,
and, among other things says:
make carrying a pistol conc ealed
penitentiary offense, and killing or
attempting to kill with such weapon
a crime admitting of no defense, and
court in every Indictment for car
rying the pistol, and the evil practice
will be greatly lessened, If not en-
tirely broken up"
The press of Mississippi is doing all
that Lies within its power TO arouse
the public conscience ON the concealed
weapon mania, and we shall be sur
prised IL the work OF the next iegis-

Vile, are recovering form their wound
in THE Natchez sanitariums. Mr.. Cloy
was accidentally shot the day after

is the young man who announced
his determination to- return to Mead
Vile and clean up the whole Pritchar
clan if his life we're saved. What
ever may be said of the objective
truth of Earnest Newmanis conten-

cerity. The inconsistency that is

Airs Wei0ht.

There is no uniform weight for air.
For instance, saw the weight of a cubic
foot of air at sea level is 100 grains,
the pressure removed, say, by It's ele-
walton to an altitude of 10000 feet, its
weight would be about the half OF
1,700 grains. In other words, the cubic
foot, at ten or twelve thousand feet
above the sea, would expand to two
cubic feet, each of about $50 grains
weight.
