Tuesday morning this quiet little
city presented strange appearance.
1t was evident that the small boy-and
some that were not SO small-had not
neglected to observe Halloween in a
lifting manner. Buggies, wagons and
all kinds of vehicles lined the main
street and formed silent procession.
Gates mysteriously disappeared and
were found reposing on telephone
wires and other almost inaccessible
places. huge sign announced to the
astonished residents that the Republi-
can headquarters had been removed
to the drug store, and another sign in
front of dwelling house bore the
words, mo twelve o'clock closing
here.n
No property was damaged, however,
and the people all took the pranks
played on them in a good natured
way.
