Advertisers usually get from ten to one hundred dollars for every one invested in its advertising columns, THE BOYS HAD THEIR FUN, But it was Rough on Tidy House Keep- ers—All Hallow E’en Manifestations. The material manifestations peculiar to the last evening in October were very marked last night, Shortly after dark animal and vege- table matter could be dimly seen fiying through the air in great quantities and those who hap- pened to be out on the streets and were too absorbed at first to notice the phenomena were unexpectedly awakened to their presence. A Pete ve observations determine: bord —— lying objects consisted principally of ca! e8 and other vegetables, deceased cats, dogs, &c. Flour also was showered through the air in great quantities and door bells were rung by agencies which were invisible, at least to the who answered the call. The con- ductors, drivers and passengers in street cars were especially beset by these influences. A sudden often left s car conductor or driver white with flour, A dead cat moving with great volocity sometimes flew through a car full of passengers, Frequently peals of laughter would be heard after one of these demonstrations and a great scuttling of feet. Everybody seemed to take these unusual ex- Periences philosophically and the ordinary remark h was: “The boys are having a good time tonight The fact seemed to be generally recognized that it was Hallowe'en. A good many of the boys referred to wore very demurely marching into church sony A take part in the services of All Saint's which is observed by the Catholics and a ft other denominations, THE FLOUR NUISANCE. The policemen, as a rule, gave the boys a chance, and the youngsters seemed to appreci- ate their freedom, and there was very little throwing of dead animals by them. Throwing flour was their chief amusement, and many pedestrians were ‘dusted.” The sidewalks, streets and door steps were covered with enough flour to feed many poor families. Some boys were more considerate than others and used corn meal instead of flour, The meal was easily brushed from the clothing of victims. If the police had taken occasion to arrest the boys every time an opportunity was presented the station houses would not have held the offend- ers, ‘TWO SMALL COLORED BOYS ARRESTED. Policeman Campbell of the third precinct ‘was one blue-coat who departed from the gen- eral rule and arrested two small colored boys— William Hewitt and Louis Day. Tracesof flour were still on their clothing when they appeared inthe Police Court this morning after being locked up in cells all night. Thoy admitted they had done wrong, but justified their action on the ground that the other boys were having fun in the same way. The officer made the case against the boys as strong as he knew how, but Judge Miller was lenient and took their personal bonds. Louis Pollard, a colored man, was arrested by the same policeman on acharge of disorderly conduct. He was one of the flour victims and, denouncing the actions of a girl who threw flour on him, he picked up a stone to frighten her. The judge also took his bonds, AN INDIGNANT CITIZEN was in the Police Court this morning—Mr. Brennan, who lives on 14th street not far from Boundary. His thirteen-year-old son John was charged with violating a District ordinance. Mr. Brennan said that things were coming to a pretty pass when his son could not go half a square from his own house without getting arrested and thrown into a police cell, al- though he had not misbehaved. It was the child's first appearance in a cell where ordinary criminals are placed, and it nearly broke his heart. Policeman Steirman told the court that the boy threw flour and corn at a window at 14th and Riggs streets and that’s why he arrested him. The youthtul defendant denied the officer's accusation and said that some other boys threw flour on himself and his companion. ‘They took off their coats to shake off the flour and while doing so the officer ar- rested him. He denied that he had either corn or flour about him, except what the other boys threw on him, His companion corroborated every word the boy said and Judge Miller promptly dismissed the case.

Those who are voters in the states of Maryland, Virginia and Ohio especially sre making ar- rangements to go home and vote. During the next few days there will be quite an exodus from this city of government employes. In some of the departments the employes find a difficulty in the way of obtaining leaves of ab- sence, This is caused by 4 DECISION OF ATTORNEY GENERAL GARLAND, which was made February 24, 1896, and has been reissued by Attorney General Miller. The decision is that when an employe has had dur- ing the year a leave of absence om account of ness for thirty days he is not entitled to any farther leave during that year with pay. But if it happens that has enjoyed the re annual leave of thirty days then he can have leave of absence on account of sick- ness for any length of time the head of the de- partment may determine to allow. IT 18 CLAIMED that this decision works an injustice ‘as it de- prives anemploye of his regular annual leave in the event that he should happen to be taken sick before the leave is ted, He can have @ regular leave firstand then the sick leave afterward, but when these conditions are re- versed he loses his annual leave. This is the situation of anumber who want to go home and vote. They have hadasick leave during the year, but no regular leave, and now they find that when this decision is followed if they go home their pay is stopped. THE RULE IN THE INTERIOR DEPARTMENT. The Interior department, however, pays no attention to this decision, which was made in response to an inquiry from the Secretary of the Treasury. The rule there is that each employe is entitled to a regular annual leave of thirty days, If he should happen to be sick during any time in the year the absence is not charged to the regular leave, but a sepa- rate account is kept. Asarule thirty days are allowed for sick leave, but of course excep- tions are made in deserving cases, > COMMITTEES NOT QUITE READY And the Maritime Conference, After a Short Session, Adjourns Till Monday. The international maritime conference re- sumed its sessions at the Wallach mansion this morning at 10 o'clock, The president said that when the conference adjourned on Monday to meet this morning the expectation was that the reports of the various committees would be ready for presentation. He called for reports from the chairmen as to their progress, Admiral Nares, on behalf of the fog signals committee, said that the report was complete and in the hands of the printer, but that it was unsigned and that the committee would like an opportunity to read over the report before finally submitting it. Admiral Bowden-Smith and Capt. Malenburg of the committees on devices and lights, re- spectively, reported the same state of affairs. THE CARRYING OF LIGHTS, Capt. Malenburg withdrew his amendments numbered 11 and 17, both in reference to the lights carried by vessels under tow, and he sab- stituted for them another amendment, to the effect that such a vessel shall carry the lights prescribed by vessels not under command, Mr, Goodrich, on behalf of the delegates of the United States, proposed an amendment to article 3 of the rules of the road providing for auxiliary side lights for steamers. Has second one was to amend article 5 so that vessels not under command shall carry three white lights instead of red ones. TO PREVENT COLLISIONS. Capt. Bisbee of China offered an amendment to the effect that small, handy boats ina large concourse of vessels shall not attempt to cross the bows of larger vessels, but that nothing shall exoncrate a large vessel from doing everything in her power to avoid a collision, After this amendment was read there was a pause for ® moment in the council room, roken only by the low hum of conversation. The chair then asked: ‘Are there any more amendments?” “I should hope not!” remarked Mr, Hall from the lower end of the table and beaming upon the conference, THEY SHUDDERED. “T have half a dozen here.” said Mr. Good- rich, from the upper end, holding up a large bundle of papers, whereat Mr. Hall and the rest of the delegates gave a good-natured shudder, Mr. Goodrich, however, was induced to hold his amendments, and he accordingly mndo a little speech to the conference propos- ing an adjournment on account of the inability of the committees to report. He thought that there werea number of topics which might easily be discussed at present without waiting for the committees, but he offered the motion | in deference to the wishes of several dele- gates, The motion was carried and the conference at 10:25 adjourned to meet on Monday at 10 o'clock.

A timely discovery yesterday prevented a general delivery from the jail of Washington county and the escape of a number of des- perate prisoners, including Michael Zimmer- man, the murderer of Slick, and the negro Charles Sanders, who killed Farmer Herr. Several of them had in some manner released themselves from their iron hobbies, while one Of them, Delaney, a burglar, had sawed the rivets off of the door of the large iron cage and released himself and several companions When discovered by the sheriff and several as- sistants the prisoners became furious and showed fight. They were armed with knives and razors, evidently furnished them by out- siders, and threatened vengeance upon the officials, They refused to return to their cells, but were driven back at the mouth of loaded muskets and a strong stream of water from hose attached to a hydrant, They are now all hobbled with a heavily armed guard over them. When their cells were searched a num- ber of saws and other tools were found. ‘The flood of June last played such havoc with that portion of the national turnpike ex- tending west to the Allegany county line,owned by the Baltimore and Cumberland turnpike company, that the company yesterday executed a decd conveying it to the commissioners of Washington county, who will immediately re- Pair and maintain it asa public road and do away with toll gates.

Correspondence of Tax EVExINe Stan Si1c0, Mp., November 1. A citizens’ meeting was held im Sligo hall last night to take action in reference to the liquor sajoons on the 7th-street road. The meeting was called to order by Wright Carties, who waselected chairman of the meeting, with S. A Layman secretary. A committee on resolutions was appointed, consisting of F. Benjamin, J. C. Dowell and 8. A. Layman, who submitted resolutions, which were adopted and will be laid before the Commissioners of the District of Columbia tomorrow. The resolu- tions set forth that the presence of many liquor saioous on the main thoroughfare from Montgomery county to the District renders partially ineffective the local option law adopted im the county; ask the Commissioners to re- fuse, so far as possible, to tany new or re- new any old licenses for liquor saloons said thoroughfare, and invite the co-operation of all citizens of good repute in the county and in the District of Columbia in the effort to se- cure the abatement of the evils complained of.

After an all-day session yesterday in Phils- delphia the Unitarians closed their conference with a great demonstration in the academy of music, at which three of their foremost men— George William Curtis, who presided, Rev. Edward Everett Hale and Rev. Minot J, Savage —f#poke on the subject of the future of reli- gious thought, Dr. Savage's address, which was the first and longest, was marked by the radical views for which he is famous. He con- tended that no intelligent person believed that Moses wrote the books attributed to him im the Bible, and said that, as there had never been any such thing as ‘fall of man,” all the machinery of religion and of theology which was based on that myth was artificial, born of the dark ages, and would pass away, Mr. Hale said some striking things, “The Present tendencies in religious freedom,” he said, “are but continuations of political free- dom. This country was born of the people and has become a country of the people. So reli- gion is destined tor the people. Mr. Curtis, after saying some pleasant things about Philadelphia and paying a graceful tribute to the Rev. Dr, Furness, went on to discuss religious progress and said, apropos of calling Uniterians infidels, that if Dr.Chenning was an infidel than au infidel society repre- sented the ideal community. “Cervantes was just as good a man as John Knox,” he said. “The pope considered the most orthodox Protestant minister just as much an infidel as he did a Unitarian, but after all it was note term or any creed that setth it. The man who is the most upright in any community is after allthe best man, The characteristic of the time is its sympathy, charity and frater- nity, ina word its humanity, The real and only rock on which the church is built is the brotherhood of man,” Justice Miller was re-elected president for the ensuing two years, with most of the same Ofticers, one of the changes beimg Rev. George Batcheler as secretary. The endowment of professorship to the late James Freew: Clarke in Meadville theological school, which has occupied a great deal of attention during the conference, is practically settled. With the coilections iast night and the mouey aiready pledged it is thought the chair will be eudowed, ee ee Mrs. Mackay’s Libel Suit. The action for libel brought by Mrs. John W. Mackay against the Manchester Examimer came up in London yesterday in the court of queei bench, The libel alleged that the plaintiff was «poor widow with two children,and thatshe was employed as « washerwoman by Nevada miners when Mr, Mackay fell in love with her. The plaintiff conteuds that the words of the article suggested that she was not a lady of birth or education and that she was not accustomed to associating with persons of good position. ‘The detendants admitted the frst innuendo, The detendante paid and the court held that it was applicavie te that part of the libel. oe.
