All-Halloween Nuisances.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:

TO the EIAItOf OF TIE Evening Star.
The annual recurrence Of All-Halloween
always brings forth descriptions OF how the
feast was celebrated in olden times, being
looked forward to with pleasure by young
and old alike. Like many other good
things, this celebration has degenerated,
and instead of affording innocent and or
derly merrymaking, has taken on features
often of an outrageous character. Last
year The Star published some forcible COM
plants from citizens in regard to the ma
licious defacement of their premises. Some
houses were made filthy with the nasty
stun thrown upon them by ignorant or evil
minded persons. Now the question is, Are
we to have a repetition of such disgraceful
conduct this year? What say our police

cept hereinafter provided"
The matter, at Mr.. Ross suggestion, was
referred to the fire marshal Mr.. William o.
Drew, who reported: Il don't see that 1t

seems to me to be fully covered and pro-
vided for In the second paragraph Of sec
ton of article 2 Of the police regulations"
The attention of the attorney for the Dis
trict, Mr.. A. B. Duvall, was also invited to
the proposed amendment, and he made the
following recommendation, which has been
approved by the Commissioners: 'Inasmuch
as section / of said article relates to the
storing of petroleum, etc, 1 beg to suggest
that said paragraph Of section 2, article 2
be amended by adding the words except as
in this article provided instead of the
words suggested in Mr.. Ross memoran-
