How It is Celebrated by the Boys and Young Girls, RICKS PLAYED UPON HOUSEHOLDERS AND PRDES- TRIANS — HOW TO ASCERTAIN ONE'S FUTURE HUSBAND OR WIFE—HOW A MAIDEN CAN HAVE HER FORTUNE BEVEALED TO HER IN A DREAM, Tomorrow is All Samts’ day and tonight being Ali Halloween the young folks will no doubt do their celebrating as usual. All Halloween is the evening preceding All Haliow day—properly called All Saints’ day. Hallow-tide is @ comprehensive name for both days. There is scarcely any time more distinguished than this by the common people throughout the British Isles, This is probably owing to the fact of November first having been one of the four great festivals of ! their pagan ancestors. It was formerly cele- brated by immense bonfires in Wales, Ireland, the Scotch Highlands and even in England; in the latter place up to a very recent period and | | the finances of municipalities is nearly ready, Occasionally at the present time. This custon also prevails at present among the Weish peo- pie, who still practice superstitious rites for divining the future. In Ireland particularly the Ist of November is regarded as the proper time to offer than! for the realized fruits of te earth. ‘The Irish in this regard call it La May Ubbal—that is, the day of the apple fruit, aud celebrate it with feasts of roasted apples mixed in ale or milk. Chas. Graydon. the Irish poet, very aptly de- scribes one favorite practice thus: These « © DY pau ruth sincere, hule they urn, t ferce ordeal bring past, Their mingled ashes rest af lant All Halloween has always been the occasion of an enjoyable time in Christian countries, The performance of spells by young peopie to discover their future partners for life bas been one of the most popular usages, as well as fire- side reveiries, such as cracking nute, ducking for apples and other enjoyments, It is the night when witches, evil spirits and other mis- chic f-making beings are abroad on their mid- journeys, and when the fairies are sup- to hold ther grand anniversary. ‘The | “atin il kept up and the evil-spirited boys, as well | as the fair maidens. take part in the celebra- tion, THE SMALL Boy's FUN. Whether witches, devils and other evil spirits go about on their banefal errands or not is probably a question of belief for those who study such things; but certainly if they do not | the small boys take their place on earth, while the maidens take the places of the fairi holding their grand auniversary and give par- ties and social gatherings for their friends. The mischievous boys were among the foremost of the merrymakers, but as boys will they gener- ally carried their amusements so far as to e them objectionable. Bonfires was the | general order of the occasion when the city Strects were not concreted and when large va- cant lots were more numerous than they are now. When their material became exhausted and the fires could no longer be kept up the | hittle demons turued their attention to their favorite pastime of the occasion, which was to enn’ their neighbors in various ways, such as to tie the dead bodies of smail animals on front doors, or ring door bells and = the persons answering the bell with cab- ages of some other objectiouable article. Sometimes live animals were used, when dead Ques were scarce, and it was not an unusual happening to be awakened after midnight by a yelping dog that the boys had tied to the door beil, ‘THE SHOWER OF FLOUR, In these days the boys consider themselves as boys no longer, and they turn their atten- tion to the social gatherings, while some of the older young men have gone back to some of the pranks that were formerly played by young America. Particularly does this apply_to the throwing of flour about the streets. During | THE EVENING STAR: WEALTH, DEBT AND TAXATION, The Broad Scops of One Division ia the Census Bureau, The work of the ninth division of the census bureau—termed in the official reports the “division of wealth, debt aud taxation”—in- cludes a thorough investigation, personaily and by letter, into the financial condition of every incorporated placo in the United States and the territories. An inquiry 2s to annual re- ceipts and expenditures of ali unincorporuied places comes within the general scope of the work. The term “financial condition” em- braces, for municipalities having # population of 2,500 in 1880 or in subsequent censuses, a full statement of reccipts and expenditures during the past ten years under the most im- portant headings. A complete exhibit is also being calied for and prepared with reference to taxation, assessed valuation, —esti- mated true valuation, bonded debt, | Hoating debt, sinking fund. cash in treasury | end other available resources and annual inter- est charge. Anexbaustive bulletin is being prepared showing the bonded debt, doating debt, total debt, sinking fund, cash in treasury, total available resources, net debt, assets in excess of expenditures and aunual interest charge, summarized and in detail, for 858 large cities and tow ally termed municipali- ties. This foliowed very shortly by a supplementary buiiotin showing the financial condition in detail of at least 200 additional municipalities, A third bulletin conceruing giving a full showing of receipts and expendi- tures, with comparisons for 1880 and 189), of the 300 largest cities in the United States. Then will come a statement as to tho valuation and tgxat.on of these places. ‘The figur bonded debt of citfes, &c., will be accompa: by an exhibit giving the purposes for which bonds were issued, when they mature, rates of interest aud everything else pertaining to the general subject calculated to be of service, All Halloween's night is | sessed vuluation,” INDEBTEDNESS AND RESOURCES OF COUNTIES, A bull has already been is- sued to show in summarized form the indebted- ness and resources of counties by fates, Within the next few weeks a bulletin will be pnblished giving the debts and credits of counties as units in detuil, figures for 1880 being placed alongside of those for 1890 as @ basis of comparison. More than 2,800 connti have been corresponded with to get the results and there is uow only one delinquent county in the whole country. Concerning the muni- cipalities Just referred to correspondence has been carried on for # yeur at least with nearly 1,200 executive and department officers of cities and large towns, the net results being that there are very few delinquents indeed. ‘The othe sections of the work reprosent seven distinct classes of in = Urban div “villages and tow: ool districts, slimated true valuation, “colored holding “taxation.” Under one or other of these headings correspoudence is now in progress with. in round pumbe 200,000 places. Giving them in detuil there a about 17,000 rural div about 35,000 vil- incorperated and uuincorpo- 2,000 school distri Valuation shave been sent to at least 40.000 pal From each of these places a statement is called for TO SHOW THE FINANCIAL CONDITION. Wherever receipts and expenditures can be given the opportunity for sending in the facts has been furnished, schedules and circulars with proper instructions having been for- warded. As the information comes in for each section it is tabulated wnd prepared for The sorting out of mail matter by subdivisions, such as counties, rural and urban divisions, is being carried on vigorously by a clever and industrious body of computers, copyists and clerks. At the present rate of working. with the facilities at his disposal, Mr. Campbell Copeland thinks it more than likely that the volumes containing sa complete and | accurate statement of the financial condition, taxation and valuation of every community— no matter how small or ho 3 e—in the United States and the territories will be ready for press in the latter part of 1891. An in- quiry into the local goverument of counties, muuicipulities, towns, vilinges, boroughs, town- ships and school districts is now in progress. This class of work being done under Mr. Cope- land’s personal eupervision and direction, is in- tended particularly to show the conditions un- der which communities are permitted to con- tract liabilities. The statutes of the states aud other official documents of like character have been carefully examined in this connection. Mr. Not argemee believes that he will be able to e preparation of the text—which will the past few years in this city this form of | include a comparison of the financial and mu- amusement has delighted many parties of young and caused merriment to persons on the streets other than those who happened to fall Victims. In the first some ration is made as a security against the police, and that is often done by turning the coat inside out and wearing « slouch bat turned in the same m: ner. There are some who do not care to risk this, and they use burned cork on their faces. When once disguised in this manner each of the party takes a bag of flour and they start out to turn black into white, and before the nicipal regulations in the states with those of foreign countries—in time to issue the result in book form simultancously with the final yol- umes on wealth, debt and taxation, THE COURTS.
