VOLUME 82... PISTOLS AND BOMBS. | HE “dangerous weapons” statute of recent legislation becomes an effective State law in New York from to-morrow, Sept. 1. Law-| abiding citizens who keep a re- volver concealed in the bureau) drawer upstairs, in case of bur-| glars, will be financially inter-| ested to the extent that the| license now required for such real | or imaginary self-protection costs | $10. If you don’t get the li-| conse, there is nothing worse on| your conscience than a technical misdemeanor. | For a person whom business or inclination impels to go about! armed to the teeth the license is worth the money it costs. An at- tempt to do a regular house-breaking or gang-conducting business without it would be likely to prove unprofitable in the long run, as a $500 fine or imprisonment for a term of something less than a year is now the prescribed penalty for being caught unlicensed with the firearm goods. | In short, the new law will be more effective in discouraging hom- icide than the old law was—if the police enforce it more effect-| ively. ‘There is some talk of a special squad being put on this job, which certainly cannot be reckoned among the sinecures of the, terce. | If this prohibition of concealed weapons could be stretched so) as to cover bombs, and put into operation with proportionate zeal, it| would tend toward the improvement of present conditions. Only | this week the bomb zone has widened ao as to take in the busiest rection of Lexington avenue, between Forty-second and Fifty-ninth | streets. There was an eruption in upper Sixth avenue some months | ago. In the average tenement of the Italian district explosions are expected as regularly as rent day, only more frequently—and they furnish even more urgent cause for moving. A cueetsoenre EDISON’S NEW MOTOR. HOMAS A. EDISON seems to be having the time of his life on his European holiday jaunt. At pres- ent writing he is motoring in Switzerland. At the same time he pursues his scientific and utili- tarian observations with the eame boyish enthusiasm that for more than @ quarter of a century past has kept ennui out of the neigh- borhood of South Orange, N. J. Mr. Edison has been inspecting the natural cold storage plants and unemployed water power of the Alpine glaciers. Now he lends a hand to practical experiment in animal traction. Rounding a mountain curve somewhere between Geneva and Interlaken the auto accidentally turned turtle. Mr. Edison was not hurt, but the machine was—so badly, indeed, that even the wizard’s skill could not reassemble it. Fortunately it wasein a farming district, and there were draught animals about. After the custom of the country, a cow and a mule were hitched to the disabled motor car and towed it safely into port «eNO. 18,272 Here is where science, like the fashions, rotates and returns % primitive forms.
