BOYS KEPT QUIET
POLICE SAY HALLOWEEN WAS THE
DULLEST THEY HAVE. EVER
KNOWN
SCARED BY EXTRA POLICE
Mischievous Youngsters Cut Loose a
Barge Belonging to Yerxa
BrGs., but Did Lit
tie Else.

Last evening. even though it was Hal
loween, was one of the auietest that the
police have had for many days. 1t seems
as though the warning given by the
mayor together with the extra police
precautions, had the desired effect of
keeping the riotous young citizens of the
city from trying to play the various
tricks that are their custom on Hal
loween. Whatever may have been the
cause, the police say that it was the
quietest Halloween in the history of the
department. -,
The only trick that was reported to CHE
police was one in which it is quite diff
f:cult to see the real joke. A barge which
is the property of Yerxa Bros. was tied
at the foot of Chestnut street. Early in
the evening some boys gathered around
il and with their knives severed the ropes
that anchored it to the shore. 1t f1oated
down the stream and those who were
looking for it were unable to locate it
last evening It is quite probable that
the barge will float down the stream until
it lodges aaginst one of the wing dams,
where it will remain until the owners
have it returned to its moorings. The
trick, while it may have amused the
boys, will necessitate the expenditure of
a few dollars and viii cause no small
amount of trouble.

The hearing of argument in the Pc
tition of the board of normal school di-
rectors to the supreme court for writ
of quo warranto against the state board
of control has. been continued until next
Friday
When the case was called yesterday,
and Harris Richardson as attorney for
the board of control, declared himself
ready at that time to argue the case.
counsel for the normal board were some
what taken by surprise, as it had ben
generally understood that he would ask
for further time to prepare his case.
He said he would try the case at once,
either upon motion to dismiss the in
formation and quash the writ, or upon
the merits of the case as presented in
the information filed by the petitioners
Gen. III. w. Childs, counsel for the
normal board, was not present, and his
law partner, A. M. Wickwire, appeared
in his stead. Mr. Wickwire desired a
continuance until next week, when Gen.
Cbilds will return from Washington; but
Mr.. Richardson tried in several different
ways to secure a hearing before the court
at once. Mr.. Richardson's motion to dis
miss was finally continued until next FRI
day.
In his motion Mr.. Richardson present.
ed the following reasons why the case
should be dismissed:
First-Because in this proceeding it is
not sought to try the right of the re-
spondents to act as members of the board
of control, but simply to exclude them
from the performance of certain duties
provided for by chapter 122, of the Laws
of 1901, and to restrict them to the per-
Torrance of certain other duties required
by that act.
.'Second-Because the facts set up in
the Information and recited In the writ
show that the proceeding is brought
merely for the purpose of determining
whether certain official acts relating to
the state normal schools are to be per-
formed by the board of control of state
institutions or by the state normal school

trees, which were 200 feet from the

leaving the stumps cut off short and
partly buried in the ground. One Of
these stumps, q big oak affair, leaned
over, pointing directly toward the
house. The negro wanted to blow this
stump to pieces. and to this end he
bored a2-inch hole in it from the side
and then inserted stick of dynamite.
The hole was then closed UP and the
charge exploded. With the explosion
Of the dynamite the heart Of the oak
stump shot from It's place like a can

stump was uninjured, except that the
heart was removed, and after the ex-
plosion it stood pointing its "muzzle"
