See place Thursday o ALL HALLOW F’EN. Peculiar Tricks, Spells and Conjuration of the Young Folks. All Hallow Fen will no doubt be observed tomorrow night by many young. folks in the usual way. The children will play their ac- customed pranks and the young people of mar- riageable age will try their fortune by uncan- ny spells to ascertain something about their future life partners if they are to have any. In days gone by the principal Hallow E’en en- joyment for mischevious boys was the making of bonfires and the throwing of cabbages or dead dogs. cats, chickens at the front doors or windows of persons objectionable to them, or they would hang the dead animals or decayed yegtables on the door knobs and then use the knocker or ring the door bell and run off. An- other favorite pastime of the season was to throw stones over the back sheds at their neighbors’ cats and if they happened to break a window then they would scamper. A vacant lot was generally used as a place where the dead animals and stolen cabtages could be stored. If on Ail Hallow E’en an inoffensive colored man did not get a dog or chicken strung = his neck he was lucky. Now it is differ- en' 4 REMINDER OF CARNIVAL TIMES, The boys find it difficult to get dead animals or eabbages and now use flour. They band themselves together in groups and by contrib- uting 2 or 3 cents euch can purchase a large bag of cheap fionr. Taking the bag to some out of the way spot. where there is no clectric lights, they wait for the appearance of an unsus- pecting person to dust him with the flour— colored ones preferred—because the flour con- trasts with the complexion. BOBBING FOR APPLES. The apple tub is still used, but chiefly by small boys, as the girls object to bobbing their heads into a tub of water to obtain nothing but an apple. In place of apples coin is now used by many persons, and the one who gets the coin keeps it. THE PETTICOAT SPELt.. The fair maids who do not care to have others know their superstitions usually try the petti- coat spell as a means of telling who their future husband is to be. “Hallow E’en night I go to bed, ph Rt my petticoat under ray head, ‘he livins and not of the dead, And dream of the oue who I am to wed.” When entering her bed room the maiden is to walk directly to the bureau and look into the mirror. She is then to disrobe and make her way to the bed backward, placing the gar- ment under her pillow. From the time she enters the room until morning she is not to speak to any one. WHERE THF JOKE COMES IN. An amnsing trick is done by the use of two | plates. One is to be smutted or smoked on the i bottom and placed on a table in a dark room. | Another plate. a clean one, is placed on a table | in sroom where there is a dim light. ‘The person whose fortune is to be told goes into the dark room and has to take the plate and imitate the motions of the fortuue teller. It being dark the soot on the plate cannot be | seen, and when the maneuvering is concluded the fortune is told by looking in the glass. The victim who uses the smntted plate then finds out what the others are laughing at. MEAL BALLS AND CHESTNUTS. Making meal balls isa popular trick. Small pieces of paper are secured and the names of two ladies for batchelors trying the spell. or of | two gentlemen for maidens, are written on the _ These slips are inserted in the meal balls, which are dropped into water. The name that appear on the water first is the name of | | the future husband or wife. Chestnuts are named and placed on the stove. The one which first “pops” and leaves the stove is the future husband or wife, as the | case may be. ' THE RING IN THE CAKE. The use of a ring is also popular at Hallow E’en parties, A gold ring is put ina cake be- fore it is baked and the cake is sliced in pres- ence of the entire party, and the one who gets the ring in a slice of cake is the one whe is to be married fi The ring is kept by the per- son who gets it as @ souvenir of the party. A GHASTLY SPELL | Among the ghastly tricks of fate tried is one in which three saucers are used. Into one a gold ring, indicating marriage, is placed: in another ashes, signifying early death; and in the third water, denoting single blessedness. The person whose fate is to be decided is blind- folded and is to turnaround three times before making choice. The positions of the saucers are changed and then the person, still blind- folded. is to put his or her hand into a seucer and thus determine the bright or sorrowful fate in store for the blind-folded one. THE MOUND OF FLOUR, THE ALPHABS? AND THE APPLE PARING are also popular modes of trying fate. The flour mound is made by filling a tea cup With flour and turning it out on a plate. Then those present march to the table und cuta slice from the mound. The one who causes | the mound to fall is the one who above all others present will not get married. ‘The alphabet trick is performed by writing the alphabet ona sheet of paper and cutting the letters off in separate pieces and placing them in a vessel of water. The letter that turns on top of the water first is the initial of the fature wife or husband. The apple test is done by removing the par- ing of an apple in one piece and then dary ye | itabout your head three times and letting it drop behind you. It will form the initial foe ter of your fnture husband or wife. ——— A Foot Ball Match. Agame of foot ball was played yesterday afternoon between the Orients of Washington and the Georgetown Coilege eleven. The match was won by the latter team by a score of 6to®. Tobin, the centerrush of the College team, was forced through the Orients’ black line afterthe ball had been downed within about ten fect of ‘goal line.” He then kicked agoal. Seullin and Henchy, half-backs of the College team. made some excellent runs, The game was called at the end of the first half, on account of darkness, There was a large crowd | of spectators. —_>___ Death of Richard T. Bentley. Mr. Richard T. Bentley died yesterday at Bloomfield, near Sandy Springs, Md., in the seventy-first year of his age. He wes one of the oldest and best known citizens of Mont- gomery county, Md. At the time of his death | he was president of the Sandy Springs savings ! | bank and of the Montgomery county mutual | | fire insurance company. For many years he | served on the Indian commission and has been | one of the most active members of the Society of Friends. ea TS The National Kifles’ Reunion. The Nationa! Rifles have issued invitations | for the Saturday evening reunions of the com- mand for the season of 1889 and 1890, commenc- | ing November 2. These reunions hereto ore have been looked upon as the most pleasant of | the many popular entertainments given by this | favorite command. They last from 8 until 11 o'clock, and have been liberally patronized. In order that these reunions in the future may be as select and as popular as in the past the com- mittee has determined to adhere rigidly to the rule to admit only those friends specially fa- vored with an invitation.

The prosecution of persons for occupying the sidewalk on Louisiana avenue between 9th and 10th streets, as mentioned in yesterday's Stan, promises to be interesting. The first case to be cilled is against a dealer who oceu- pies the pavement in front of one of Mr. Red- man’s buildings, It appears that Mr. Redman rents the building to Mr. Michael, and that Jas. Robertson is a sub-tenant. Mr. Robertson, it is claimed, refuses to pay rent on the ground that @ citizen, no matter whether he rents a house or not, has no right to collect rent for the public space in front of it. The ense, he claims, is one not within the jurisdiction of the Police Court,as 2 landlord-and-tenant case can- not be tried in that tribunal. He admits that the space, like all others on that be anna is illegally occupied, but he claims that, if he cannot occupy that space no ofie cise can, and if convicted and forced toleave the other occupants of sidewalks will also have to vacate them. Mr. Robertson claims that he does not occupy as much of the @ ag the other its are occupying in front of their respective places of business, The case has already been tried beforea magistrate, who held that the defendant was in illegal posveasion of the a but that it being public ground, over which no citizen had con- tre 1i8 court had no authority. If the defend- ant is found guilty of the charge against him other prosecutions will probably follow andsome interesting legal questions be raised by Lawyer Closs, who willappear for Mr. Robertscn. The result of the trial will be interesting. as a de- cision in favor of the defendant will be a vir- tual invitation to squatters to fall upon and ize other portions of the sidewaiks on that avenue, and this would probably lead to the revocation of the order made by the Commis- sioners. Such revocation will cause great in- convenience to the merchants who occupy the pera im front of their places for their own usiness and do not attempt to rent them out, plasredtbeoe ~ nn sadn In New York the Central Liquor Dealers’ association has raised the price of ale, porter and beer to ten cents a pint.
