CARVING Concealed Weanons

Statistics compiled in New York city
show that out of S01 arrests made there
in 1909 for carrying concealed weapons,
lib were allowed to go by the magis-
trates and the others were given only
very light sentences or fined.
The proportions are probably about
the same in this as in other cities, and
the number of persons who make a
practice of packing a gum and are
not found out must be many more. The
habit is a dangerous one in the ex-
IRENE, and considerably more strictness
should be applied in discouraging it. A
man who carries a concealed weapon
does 1T for one of two reasons. Either
he thinks he needs it for his own pro-
lection. in which case he is entirely
within his rights if he can prove it; or
he does it for some Interior motive. In
either event the burden of proof rests
upon him. and unless he can satisfy
the authorities as to his motives a man
on whom a weapon has been found
should receive. no leniency from the
courts.
1t is this practice that causes one of
the greatest menaces in time such as
Philadelphia has just been through
The man who mingles in a crowd with
a deadly weapon in his pocket nine
times out of ten carries it not for self
protection, but to do damage with it.
If stern measures were adopted in
dealing with all found SO armed. the
examples provided would undoubtedly
have deterring influence on many an
other man or boy who has a weakness
for feeling a gun in his pocket.-Phila-

There are some worthless, prominent
ly connected with institutions, especial
ly Anglo-SaXOn institutions, who fail
TO acknowledge obvious facts, provided
those facts ought not to be facts, from
their moralistic point of view. Every
body knows that Poe has entered the
larger, the international, hall of fame
long ago; that his reputation is secure
perhaps even more secure than even
some of the institutional WORTHLESS who
securely occupy places in the Hall of
Fame of New York university.
But many of these excellent gentle
men d1sapprove of Poe's manner of
life, and consequently are unwilling,
have been unwilling, to admit the fact
that Poe belongs to the invisible but
broad hall of fame to which these ad-
mirable pillars may knock in vain.
Whatever Poe's frailties may have
been-whatever his nervous weakness
es-all that is left of him-namely, his
spirit as it lives in his works rela-
lively immortal. He is among the i'm
mortals, but up to the present time i'm
portant nobooies have refused to admit
it. Their m0ralistic tendencies have
worked against the morality, one of the
obligations of which is to acknowledge
facts, humbly, and to keep ones mind

Citizens Interested in Carnival
Proposition.
Matter Awaits Action of Civic
Club at Present.
PEOPLE WANT SHOW.
State Fair Finds Many Friends
on Other Side of River.
Working to Promote Both
Events Success Expected.

Interest in the street fair proposed
for the North side in the near future
Is growing. This morning the sentl-
ment was that such an undertaking
should be carried out. The only ques-
ton is as to what would be the best
time for such carnival. Nearly all
of the North siderS are anxious that
the proposed street fair shall not con-
flict with the state fair scheduled this
fall, but are also anxious that the for
mer be held as soon as possible
At present the matter has developed
until it now remains for the Civic club
TO take hold Of it and appoint the best
men on the committees to look aItef
the matter. 1t is well understood thal
such an affair, if successful, will mean
work and lots of it, but there seems to
he a willingness on the part of all con-
cerned to put their shoulder to the
wheel and help push the proposition.
Many things will have to be taken
into corsiC eration for the management
of the fair. A committee must coop
crate with the street fair people In Sc
curing the best location for ali cor
cerned. Plenty of space for the tents
and attractions must be provided ana
at the same time the shows must be
arranged so as not to interfere Will
traffic. Then of course a committee on
decorations, men to look after seeur-
ing lumber ard water and other minor
committees must be apr ointed.
All OF this will require considerable
time and effort, but If a fair Is brought
here and carried on successfully ii is
thought that it will more than pay for
the trouble. 1t is likely that the fair
management will, as mas been done in
the past, give a certain per cent OF the
receipts to the Civic club.

TRIED TO MAKE GOOD

There is a howl going up over the
city against the action of the city com
.nissioners ir holding up the paving
work in Topeka for the coming year
Much of it naturally comes from brick
men and contractors, but real estate
men. progressive people who want pave
ment in front of their homes, and bust
ness interests also complain.
1t is a well known fact that the city's
rart in paving is a large amount and
the taxation extends all over the city.
The city mas to pay for the intersec-
tons on all of the streets and in past
years with such a large amount of
pavement on hand. the taxes for this
pavement ran up into the thousands of
collars.

Cutting Down Taxes.

Many of the people VINO are against
the action of the city commissioners
claim that this was their reaSOn-tO cut
down taxes by cutting down civic i'm
provements. 1t will be remembered,
however that at the meeting of the
commissioners, when this matter came
up, Commissioner Holman made a
strong talk for paving only on streets
where the intersections were paved and
where the cost to the city would be
practically nothing. But the commits
Sioners decided that this would cause
a disturbance in other parts of the city
everyone would want it then-and
they voted the Holman proposition
down.
There is another argument presented
against the postponing of the pavement
work. 1t is said that the two large
brick yards In the vicinity of the city
with the laborers living in the city
have been planning on a big turnout
this year with the proposed paving.
These brick yards employ hundreds
of men and all of them live in Topeka.
The brick yard proprietcrs claim that
unless they are able to depend upon the
Topeka trade this year their output
will have to be reduced and eventually
the plants will discharge their men and
close down for the time being.
The D1air argument against the paw
ing contracts this year, presented by
the city commissioners, was that the
two paving contractors now at work
were far behind with their paving and |
they would find it almost impossible to |
take on any more work with the men
they have employed.
The people who are kicking against |
the commissions action. claim that |
there are other contractors on earth |
and that there are scores of them who |
would take UP the Topeka work in a |
minute and rush the work to compile

EInlhurst Complains.

"Just because two contractors are be-
hind in their work, 1 don't think that
the whole progress in the city should
be held up said N. B. Burge, prom
inent real estate man, this afternoon.
Topeka will not have any more paving
until next year just because the COM
mission sees fit to put damper on the
work-taking for their argument the
action Of two contractors. There are
hundreds of people who want more
pavement and if Topeka is going to
keep in the front rank of the cities in
this country in pavement work. the loss
of one whole year will be serious
1.-The whole thing is ridiculous" SAID
H B. Howard this afternoon. "To think
that the slow work of a couple of con-
tractors is going to hold back all i'm
provements in the city. A lot of men
will be thrown out of work on account
of this. If the contractors are unable
to get men why don't they put a little
ad in the newspapers and advertise out
of town for men-Topeka has plenty of
room for more people,"

Auto People Interested.

There is one part of the city that IS
especially anxious to receive more paw
ing this year-that is the district in the
vicinity of Elmhurst. If a strip of two
blocks could be paved across Elmhurst
between Munson avenue and Huntoon
street the city would have a cross
town pavement extending from Fourth
to Seventeenth street, a distance of
over mile. This makes new route
to Washburn college and one that in
cludes only one block with a street car
line.
The Topeka Automobile club has
taken up the matter and they will work
hard against the action of the commits
sioners. They will try to make it pos
sible for a few of the streets, at least
to be paved. The Automobile club has
the matter up for action and they will
present their plea to the commissioners
at their next meeting.
The commissioners themselves claim
that they have heard nothing but fav-
orable comment on their pavement ac-
ton. With the exception Of Mr.. Tandy
they all clair that they have heard
nothing to the contrary. Commissioner
Tandy has received a stack of letters
that would fill a desk, asking that the
action of the commissioners be recon
sidered and paving contracts be let this
year as usual.

SIGNS AWAY HER DOVER
Mrs. Hinckley Accepts S14, 600
as Satisfaction of Her Claims.

Attorneys for Samuel P. Einckley. a
wealthy real estate operator, of No. 166
East 61st street, who has a summer
home at lawrence, Long Island, fled
papers yesterday with the County Clerk
Of Nassau County which constituted
legal release Of all dover right on the
part of Mrs Hinckley in the estate OF
her husband. According TO the papers,
q disagreement had occurred between
the husband and the wife. and they are
row living apart. Mrs. Hinckley ac-
cepted $4,000 as full satisfaction Of
her claims.
The Hinckleys are well known in and
about Lawrence and Cedarhurst, and
yesterdays proceedings caused much
comment. MI Hinckley's estate is sup
posed TO be worth millions, and the fact
that his wife was willing TO accept only
$4,000 came as a surprise.
Clifford. Hobbs & Beard. Of No. 8
Nassau street, who filed the papers, gave
no reason for the disagreement Mrs.
c ". Wickersham. daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs Hinckley. said that her mother had
gone abroad and intimated that the sep
aration might be only temporary one.
