HALLOWE'EN IN PAW Paw.
Things Done and Undone by Young and
Old on that Night.

The spirit of Halloween was abroad
in our midst Tuesday evening and all
the small boys were busily engaged In
carving out the ideas that had been in
cubating in their busy brains for the
past week.
In most instances the imps of mischief
carried out their plans in harmless ways;
the usual number OF signs were changed,
the old time honored custom of tick
tacking, stringing wires across walks
to stub the toe of the unwary pedestrian,
and the familiar figures of jack o'lan-
terms placed in positions where they
would create the most excitement, was
duly carried out. For those of larger
growth, the overturning of old wagons
and buggies, removing steps where not
securely fastened down, and writing
signs out of keeping with time or place,
was the program
Several Halloween parties were given
where bobbing for apples in tubs of wa
ter or tied to strings were among the
pastimes enjoyed. One of these pleasant
gatherings was at the home of Doctor
Hoyt. This was the first division of the
Presbyterian church, it being the regu-
lar meeting. Coming as it did on Hal
lowe'en the husbands were invited.
While the ladies were engaged in the
peaceful pursuit of scheming ways for
extracting the coin of the realm from the
pockets of the lords of creation, there
came an alarm at the outer door. The
door was thrown open and in rushed
ghostly forms to the number Of 40 or
less who proceeded to march in solemn
procession through the house; before
those present recovered from the panic
into which they had been thrown, all
made their escape but one, which being
brought forth from the outer covering
showed the smiling face of one of the
Every Friday club from the same
church. After agreeing to keep the
peace she was allowed to depart and
those present turned to their former
pastlme. A favorlte game was guessing
the ages of some of the lady members,
with the result of gathering many shek-
els and being no wiser than before.
The genial doctor and his better half
proved themselves royal entertainers,
and before the departure of their guests
were the recipients of the thanks of
those present.
1t would be doing scant justice to
those who bobbed for the apple on the
string did we not say something about
the agility displayed by Bros. Thompson
Heckert and Bangs Warner, and Sisters
Avery, Kilmer and Swan in their efforts
to get bite. The persistency with
which they pursued the elusive bait
will, if continued till spring, fit them to
be the charter members of fishermen S

Adjournment.
In telling Of the various means of
self-advertisement adopted by certain
authors, a critic says that Alexander
Dumas, the elder delighted to appear
in the uniform of the national guard
of France, with medals pinned to his
breast, though it is doubtful whether
his motive was anything deeper than
a vain, childish delight in gauds. He
was the sort Of man." one of his en-
emies once remarked, who was ca.
pable Of riding behind his own car
riage in order to prove that he kept
a negro in his service" A certain
literary person once appeared in the
stalls of London theater wearing
jeweled brooch in his long hair; but
he was anticipated in this respect by
Theophile Gautier, whose many-color-
ed waistcoat was always the most
conspicuous object in any theater
which he entered, and even by Dis
raeli, with his rings outside his gloves,
and his green trousers. II is said that
NJ. Paul Bourget also wore green
trousers when he was a denizen of the
Latin quarter; but that was in the
days of poverty and early struggles,
AID perhapse he had no others.
