Continued from Page IL

and Attorney Tupper, the court up
held the motion.
Chief of POLICE Hutchinson came
in for some sev anunciation from
MIR. Berry during the course of the
trial, MIR, Hutchinson is as guilty
as this girl, and the city is as guilty
as this girl, for the chief of police
conspired to have this girl commit
this crime so as 20 get the proprietor
of this rooming house. A man who
will break one of Gods command
ments will break another. and 1t is
history that he has no use for the
second commandment; so why should
he not violate the fourth as well?''
The trial was held behind closed
doors. although the doors were not
locked. Standing room was at a
premium in the narrow office of the
mayor.
Chief Hutchinson defended the as
saults on the character of Bailey
from the counsel for Mrs. Hall, and
explained that he was an upright
young man, who was temporarily
working for the city in the capacity
of detective.

same style Of drawing n u used when
picturing the sun.
The Romans are responsible for the
use Of the pumpkin. tho apple. the
cabbage and the nuts used for Hal
lowe'en feasts, and N this mythology
plays its part On November first
the Romans held their great feSst In
honor OF Pomona. the goddess Of fruit
and seeds. and 1t was at that time that
the fruits Of the field and forest were
brought In and the stores for the win
ter examined. There was great feast
ing and merrymaking with games and
dances. As the pumpkin In ripe about
this time 1t was one Of tho greatest
offerings. and is to this day the most
popular emblem OF Halloween. Oc-
tober thirty-first seems to have been
sort OF Thanksgiving day for the
Druids and the Romano. The Welsh
men, who are descendants Of the
Druids, kept up the festival for many
years. and do yet to . certain extent
with some Of the superstitious Gus
toms eliminated. There are always eat
ing and drinking and games. Fires
are lighted on the hillsides just ~ they
were in the time Of the Druids. when
the torches were burned In honor Of
Baal.
Ono Of the customs which has

The Inhabitants Of the Island Of

are responsible for the queerest Of all
Halloween customs. Here the nam6
Of Saman. the god Of Death. was
changed to Shony. and the ceremony
was held in his honor. Early In the
evening the Inhabitants used to gather
In the church, each family bringing
provisions and . pack OF malt which
was brewed into ale. One person was
then chosen to wade into the sea

stories told by the Irish OF the super
natural happenings Of Halloween are
admirable creations Of wit. Some Of
the Irish Halloween customs are fol-
lowed in America, such a. . young
girl pairing an apple without breaking

the rind over her head three times
and tosses 1t on the floor. BY q stretch
Of the imagination q letter II deciph-

marked for future Identification. Az
ter this ceremony the family said
their prayers and went to bed.
Early the next morning the ashes were
examined and II any Of the stones
were missing 1t was taken a. . sign
that the owner of the missing stone
would die before the close Of the year.
It was an easy matter for ma
liciously inclined person to carry on
one Of tho stones during the night.
and after this had been done many
times the practice was abandoned.
This custom prevailed in Scotland a.
