In addition to the gola week and car nival of sport, which opens at Valdosta today, the county clerks, sheriffs, chlrfa of police and marshals of Georgia are i to nwet in convention and an effort is to be made to have a law passed nl ■ lowing such rfflcinls to carry concealed | weapons. There arc many reasons why certain officials should be allowed to carry them. To say nothing of the appearance of exposed weapons, It gives a criminal decided advantage when officers at [tempt to make arrests. Seeing where the weapon is strung it is no difficulty to make an unexpected lunge and dis arm the officer, or at least. It tn easier than If the weapon Is concealed. More over, exposed weapons are a hindrance | to detectives In making urresta for the reason that criminals can recognize them In this way. Some of the most important errests arc by the detectives, so that too many advantages cannot be given to enable them to properly discharge their duties. NOTES OF THEATRES.
