The Nuisance Of Halloween JOCOSify.
Now that the returns regarding Hal
loween disorder are nearly all in, it APP
pears that the youth of Mineral Point
on the whole conducted themselves bet
ter than those Of many other towns
throughout the state. This was largely
due no doubt to the mayors request
and warning. Even the most reckless
of our merrymakers have wholesome
regard for the strong arm of the law.
At Waukesha the house Of citizen
whose wife was holding reception was
bombarded with squashes. One squash
was thrown through a valuable plate
glass window, and another through the
front door. 1t is evident that the crude
sense OF .humor which led to the break
ing up Of open-air religious meetings in
Waukesha by pelting the participants
with eggs has not been entirely sup
pressed.
At Fay Lake a Halloween prank was
followe,D ~ tragedy, en- elderly farm
err dyirig while engaged in the difficult
task OF recovering his wagon which
mischeieous celebrants had perched up
on the Top of wire fence. At Manito-
voc koodlums who conceived that
throwing lampblack was good joke,
and who ruined the dresses of number
Of ladies attending party at the
Opera House, changed their opinion
yesterday when some Of them who had
been observed in the act were placed
under arrest.
The fact is that even soaping win
dows is not very much of joke, and
the destruction Of other peoples prop
erty is no joke at all.
In Chicago group Of youngsters,
sons of professors in the University,
were taught lesson which convinced
them that what little there is of humor
in Halloween dis2rderliness depends up
on the point of view. Armed with pea
shooters, they made scrtic Upon a
| fraternity house, and were having a
high old time, when suddenly the door
opened and bard of fraternity MEM
bers dashed out, capturing the besieg-
ers and running them indoors, where
they were plunged, clothes and all, into
bathtuhs half filled with ice-cold water.
Then, 70 restore their circulation, and
prevent them from taking cold, they
were soundly spanked before being sent
home, carrying with them great many
peas which they had been unable to use.
In Sheboygan five small boys were
set at work under police surveillance
washing windows which they had soap
ed the Eight before.
II all Halloween nuisances, big and
little, were to have the tables turned
upon them in this way the result woule
hardly be such as TO make the judicio,li
