YOUNGSTERS
ENJOYED JUST
LOADS OF FUN
At THE Halloween PARTY
Large Crowd of Young People
Took Part in Fun

A large crowd of young people rev.
eled in Halloween fun at the armory
yesterday afternoon during the hours
when the young peoples Halloween
party was being conducted there. Fun
was contagious, and many were the
games and pastimes enjoyed.
Probably most conspicuous of the
fun-makers was the bobbing for coins
in basins of flour. The youngsters
proved keenly their ability to find the
coins with their mouths and teeth
though many one came up putting
and blowing like porpoises, with moth
ing but an unbaked biscuit in his
mouth.
There were many other games, in
GLIDING bobbing for apples in tubs Of
water, looking in the well, and fortune
telling The real, genuine gypsies
were on hand, and the two booths had
many callers during the afternoon. AL
together there must have been a hun
dred chi dren present.
The ladies in charge of the party
had a present for each of the young
people who attended The decorations
of autumn leaves, jack-o-lanterns,
black cats, ETC., were especially beau
tful when the lights were turned on.
In the even ng another merry throng
assemb ed, this time made up of the
grown-ups, who enjoyed Halloween as
much as the young people.

DISPOSITIONS ALL IN
Defense Witnesses Are Next in
Labor Contempt Case.

The taking Of dispositions by the COM
mittee Of prosecutors before Justice
Wright In the contempt proceedings
against Samuel Gompers. John Mitchell
and Frank Morrison, labor leaders, was
concluded late this afternoon. The time
limit of thirty days set by the court ends
next Saturday.
Application will be made to court. 1t
is expected, by Attorneys Ralston,
Siddons & Richardson, for the labor
men, to set a date within the next
week or ten days for the hearing of
such witnesses as the defense may see
fit to call in refutation Of the charges
Of contempt of court.
AS counsel for the defense have all
along asked for a hearing in open court,
II is considered unlikely they would SUBJ
nit any testimony before the examiner
unless 1t became necessary to have the
evidence of out-of-town Witnesses
Undecided as to Dispositions.
Whether they will take dispositions OF
witnesses before Justice Wright, to be
later read to the full bench at the formal
hearing Of the charges as the prosecutors
have done, or will insist that the entire
bench hear their defense in open court,
has not been decided by counsel.
When the court overruled the motion to
take all the evidence before the full
DenCn IL CONSenIeu " near SuSf1 WItHcSScS
as might be offered in open court. The
defense may decide to hold the court to
this concession. Such testimony as the
respondents decide to take must be con-
cluded within thirty days, or about Feb
ruary II. After this date the prose-
cutors have an additional time allowance
Of ten days for rebuttal testimony.
The last witness offered by the prose-
cutors was James O'Conne!l. president OF
the International Association OF Machin-
lists, who was recalled for the purpose OF
correcting the testimony given by him
Mr.. OConnell said he recalled now that
he was present at the reception rendered
