On last Sunday morning the res idents of Huttig were greeted with a unique sight caused by the boys on Saturday night while eelebra- ting Holloween. A wagon was on the gallery of E. R. Simms' barber shop. buggy and wagon on the postoffice gallery. two delivery wagons on the gallery of the com missary, two in front of Bells res taurant and the ice wagon in front of Bells pool room. If the gang of boys thatplaced them on the various galleries had been asked to do it for their parents without pay we expect there would have been a considerable kick. aad they would have considered themselves badly abused.
