Halloween, weird, dim,
ghostly Halloween, when all
the restless, roaming spirits Of
other realms are supposed to
feast at their silent banquet,
their white robed, gaunt, spec
trail forms chilling the blood Of
the timid who dare venture out
during their midnight reveleIy. (
This throng Of mystery greet /
led the many guests at the beau
Itiful home of DR.. and Mrs. A.
A.Evans on last Saturday even
ing.
The long, flowing white-rob-
ed figures, with unfamiliar
faces, silent and grim, bowed
their greetings, and with noise
less tread ushered the guests
into the dimly lighted hall,
where saucy little pumpkins
with happy faces seemed to en-
Joy the Mortified look that each
cast on their ghostly escort.
The house was lastly and
artistically arranged with beau
tiful autumn branches and
banks of chrysanthemums, the
favorite flower Of the season.
From the semi-lighted par
Tor floated soft, weird strains
of mournfui notes lie the wall
Of departing soul-a shadoWy
form lowering over the pulsa-
ting keys played in fiendish
glee a requiem to its misty
mates, who joined in rymthieal
sway to It's moarnful cadence.
In a dusky corner sat an old
Spook, wise in earthly lore, who
foretold the fortunes and mis-
fortunes Of the strangely curl
Gus who would enter the mystic
future and know their doom for
veal or woe.
The restless tramping of
weary feet, clanking Of heavy
chains and cries Of distress
smote the balny air, and upon
investigation an escaped spook
! conducted Us I'D dizzy flights
Of steps and with his magic
knock, the portals Of the
Chamber Of Horrors swung
wide for US to enter, but we
beat a hasty retreat, descending
more rapidly than ascending.
Back to terrafirma, we were
invited by our silent attendant
to the beautiful dining room;
festoons of bright red and gold
autumn leaves glinted in the
mellow light like fireflies on a
summer night.
A rich golden pumpkin filled
with chrysanthemums, the au-
tumn queen, graced the dining
table. Nimble, demufe little
tckes, angels Of the night,
served delicious refreshments
on wooden trays to guests re-
Iclining on sofa pillows.
With stealthy steps unheard
one Of the ethereal inhabitants
floated into our midst and rem
dered spectral reading in the
possibility of the "Hobgoblins
getting us if we didn't watch
out"
a liberal free-will offering.
given in behalf of the Ladies
Missionary Society was greatly
appreciated.
Mrs. W. W. Jernigan and her
corps of able assistants deserve
much credit for their untiring
efforts for the success of this
very pleasant and profitable
entertainment.
The evening sped away like
slippered Monks ere the happy
guests were aware the home
going hour had arrived, and as
with a magic stroke ourspooky
friends assumed the habili-
ments of earth again and show
cred the lovely hostess with
assurances of a most delightful

finding a ready sale at par and

The State Treasurer and Auditor
"hope' that when all the settlements

the state, which had reached $780,
900 as high water mark, will be
wiped out, But should that hope

to catch 1t will again be witnessed.
Temporary subterfuges, specious
devices, auto hypnosis, none Of
these will reach the root Of the
evil.

assessment laws, and the system of
expenditures, il the state Is ever 10
emerge from the slough of scandal
IN which il has been cast.
The Chlef Executive, adopting
the course Of Woodrow Wilson,
must declare policy that has the
merit Of sound business judgment,
and stay with ii till 1t Is adopted.
The Budget System, given a
partial trial under circumstances in
the last Legislature, must be ex-
tended and made To conform with
good business methods.
The Legislature must quit at

revenue, and shouldering the re.

dItion upon the Chief Executive.
There has been more litigation
over acts Of the Legislature Of 1915
than was ever engendered by any
other session, and wise manage
ment aud intelligent co operation
could have avoided 1t. When pet
ty politics Is banIshed, and states
manship takes its place, then will

The Votes of the Down-and-outs.

Two hundred and fifteen votes cast in the
House, under the operation OF gag rule, for the
ship purchase bill, the passage OF which is de-
nlanded by the President.
An examination OF the roll call discloscs the
interesting fact that exactly sixty of these afrna-
tive votes were cast by Representatives who were
rcpudated' by their constituents at the last cleo
ton. If ii not for absurd system which
respect for tradition allows to remain unchanged,
these Representatives would be at their homes en-
gagged in private avocations
1t is not necessary to recapitulatc the means
of these sixty men who politically down and
out Most of the names will be found in the list
OF those mostly loudly sounding the praises OF
President Wilson in the debate, possibly spurred
to these cnconiums by the fact that OF their
number has already been given a remuncrative
Federal office. No longer responsible TO their con-
stituents and naturally anxious to find favor with
the dispenser OF official favor, they lined up with
practical solidity for measure which bore the
administrations stamp OF approval.
1t is worth while to impress upon the country
tho fact that the apparently large majority given
in the House for the ship-purchasc bill
due to the votes OF men whose membership in
the House is only question OF few days.
