WAS A QUIET HALLOWEEN
Juvenile Observation-Disclosures Did No
Particular Harm.
POLICE WERE WATCHFUL,
A Romantic Servant Girl Tried to Carry
Out Halloween Ceremony With
Disastrous Results-A Gay
Country Party.

All Hallow's eve was an uneasy one
for the Anaconda police, for no one
knew or could anticipate with what
particular form of mischief juvenile
Anaconda would elect to startle the in
habitants. Fortunately nothing very
serious was done by the youngsters and
the night passed off as quietly as any
Halloween on record.
About 40 youngsters gathered in the
residence portion of the town and made
raids on everything movable in sight.
Most of the householders had removed
their gates and secreted them in their
cellars. so the boys gathered only a
small crop Of these. They were obliged
ITO amuse themselves chiefly with q
large hayrick, which they drew about
town for an hour or so.
A crowd of boys made things I'M
pleasant for the residents on Sixth
street. causing a telephone for the po-
lice to be sent Night Chief O'Brien
responded on his bicycle and chased
the crowd until it broke up. One of
the boys drew a revolver and fired it
twice in the air. O'Brien went after
him as fast as he could pump his ma
the alley.
In one hill residence there was a COM
motion that reused the entire neigh
borhood about Ii o'clock. The family
in this particular house employs a serv-
ant girl of a romantic turn Of mind.
The girl sleeps in folding bed. She
had heard somewhere that an infallible
means of learning who her husband
was to be was on Halloween to write
the alphabet on rs little sheets of pa
per. a letter to a sheet, put the sheets
face down in basin of water and go
to bed backwards in silence. In the
morning some of the letters in the
basin would be turned right side up
and by properly grouping them the
name Of her future spouse would APP
pear.
The plan worked all right until the
girl started to go to bed backwards;
then she broke the charm, and also the
silence of the neghborhood. Some how
she didn't hit the bed right and it shut
up, leaving about half Of her wildly
struggling on the outside and the other
half yelling on the inside. The family
responded to the alarm, Strengthened
the girl out and left her. sadder, but
less romantic maiden.
Early last evening a large party of
young people went to rancher's place
down the valley where they had a jolly
good time. An old-fashioned kitchen fire
had been provided. where the custo-
mary ceremonies of roasting nuts, ap-
pies and ears of corn and making taffy
We're gone through with. The party was
accompanied by a string orchestra and
during the evening they danced the Vir-
ginia reel, the minuet, quadrilles and
other dances of the long ago.
