NIGHT NOT FORGOTTEN.
Halloween Duly Celeb arcd asst Night-P or-
tIon OF the Proceedin. Outrages.

The innocent observance of the last even.
ing of October, called Halloween evening,
is an occurrence duly celebrated for many
years. In different places the Observance
of The evening is entirely different, as it is
in this country by different person.
Last evening several parties passed the
evening 10y driving through the streets.

men aud young ladies, paraded the streets.

OF horns. All these could be endured and
In a measure approved. There WAS still

several banGs-of young outlaws, who had
no higher conception of the day, nor why
il was celebrated, who looked upon its oc-
currence as time for performing deeds of
outlawry. To such too severe cri icism car
not be given. II is only necessary to men
ton few instances, with the hopes that
the officers OF hs law will be able To bring
them to justice.
Attbe corner OF Waco and Oak streets
the electric arc lamp was let down TO the
ground, bringing the wires SO near the
pavement that persons walking along the
the sidewalks were in danger OF being
e!ectrocuted by the deadly current.
Luckily the deed was discovered and no
one was hurt.
On the paved street, near hose house No.
that person driving in the dark would
strike il with the vehicle. A party of
young people driving at a rapid rate about
10 o'clock struck the log with their car
rIage und the driver and "a young lady were
thrown 10 the ground. The other MEM
bers of the party caught the team, and no
o.her harm was done than few bruises
About this time fire alarm was turned
in from box No. t. at the corner of RIVER
view and Waco avenues, by some boys
taking IA stone and breaking the glass. All
the companies responded promptly to the
call, which was an energetic one, and the
chemical wagon struck the log and came
near throwing the firemen to the ground.
AS il was the wagon Was considerably
damaged.

DECIDED BY REED
LEVY ALLOWED TEN THOUSAND
FOR THE RECIVERSHIP.
Judge Reed Made His Decision Last
Night and Expresses q Doubt
Whether the Amount is Not Yet
TOO High-Attorneys and Citizens
Listen to Courts Ruling.

The court room was well filled last
night with leading business men aud at
torneys to hear the decision of Judge Reed
in the allowance for the services OF NJ. w.
Levy, as receiver of the Whitaker Pack
ing Louise. At 7:45 the judge began full
review of the case and the best of attention
was paid to each word spoken by the
Judge His review of the case, in sub
stance, was as follows:
THE testimony ranges in this case from
500 per month to $40, 900. There Is no
rule to go by. The witnesses are all good
men and of equal veracity. The compen-
sation of county officer rs who handle large
sums of money is quite small. As Judge
here receive s.. 500 per year, while Judge
in New York receives SIC, 600 for the same
services. So this Is 10 criterion. 1t is
true that the receiver has been liable on
his bond at very critical time and Used
great business ability. / do not lay much
stress upon the receiver using the plant. as
others testified that its use was of benefit
to the trust. This matter has troubled NE
Il great deal, and have taken the opiuion
of persons who are hot bised on Ell; hsr
side. The question in my mind is whether
the sum, at which | have made up my
mind to allow, has been agreed to by all
whom | have consulted as very liberal. Ia
fact the only question in my mind Is
whei her IL Is not TOO large. The sum of
$50, 600 gave mo no trouble at all, as L was
Convinced IL was too high, and can not
get the consent of my mind to allow over
SO 900. In fact il Is something which has
bothered me all day, as TO whether this
sum Is not too large l am certain it Is
high enough for the services rendered"
ATTORNEY Boyle asked the court if he
hal considered the matter of 5000 or
81, 100 Interest which was received by the
receiver.
Judge Reed continued: 81 did not con-
slider this matter fully upon this subj ct,
as the exact amoudt OF interest was not
testified to-"
Judge Boyle held that this subject should
be weighed by the court deliberately, as it
was of momentous Issue. He was satisfied
that the receiver should use the same dill
gence with the moneys of the trust he
would with his own funds, and asked that
the court would weigh the matter fully
before rendering u final verdict.
judge Reed took tue subject of reduc-
ton of the amount allowed the receiver
under advisemeut until 9 a. III. today.
The question was not fully decided by h IN
AS TO whether or not he should charge the
receiver with the amount of interest,
amounting to between 5000 and 81 600
The question under consideration is TO
whom the accrued interest on the funds
should 60.

Some queer discoveries by the
prince of Monaco during his deep-sea
dredging in the Atlantic and Mediter-
ranean in the present summer are made
known. He found that at great depths,
where it was supposed nothing could
live, life is abundant. Many black
ground sharks of species supposed to
be extremely rare were caught at a
depth of mile and half. Some fishes
not identified were found at a depth of
more than two miles
"A new idea comes from Indiana,
which is TO make ice with natural gas.
When gases are compressed they part
with a portion of their heat, and then
as they expand they take back the
same amount from bodies in contact
with them. These gases when deprived
of heat can be made TO take IT from
uncongealable fluids, and thus accumu-
late cold, which may be applied TO the
freezing of water. Gas in this way can
produce ice at fifty cents per ton, an
ordinary well having a capacity of fifty
tons per day.
AT fashionable esta blishme for
the sale of mems furnishing goods in
New York il was said that perhaps one
per cent. of all the half hose sold were
unbleached: they are bought mainly
by older men who have been accus-
toned to wearing them and don't wish
to change. Scarcely any white half
hose are sold, but the unbleached are
pretty nearly white after few wash
ings. Nearly all the half hose sold for
fall and winter wear are black, and
this year they will almost all of them
be of solid black, unrelieved by stripes
or other color effects.
An effective and simple fence pro-
tects the riverside roadway along GER
tain parts of the Housatonic in west.
ern Massachusetts,. Posts are sunk as
in making an ordinary fence; along the
tops of these are placed whole trunks
of trees, varying in length from thirty
20 fifty feet. the butts being from six
10 ten inches in diameter. In each
butt longitudinal hole j. bored. into
which the tip OF the next tree is driven.
Thus fence is soon built, as long or
as short as Is needed. practically with
out any break. with very few joints,
and as strong as necessary.
