See the 1 ALL HALLOW Peculiar Tricks. spells and Conjuration of the Voung Folks. All Hallow E'en will no doubt be observed tomorrow night by many young in the usual wav. The children will play their accustomed' pranks and the young people of marriageable age will try their fortune by nncannv spells to ascertain somothing about their future life partners if tliey to have any.

In gone by the principal Hallow E'en enjoyment for mischevions waa the making of bonfires r.nd the throwing of cabbages or dead dogs, cats, cHckens at the front doors or windows of persons objectionable to them, or they would liang the dead or decayed on the door knobs and then use the knocker or ring the door bell and run off. Another favorite pastime of the season waa 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 cabbages could be stored. If on All Hallow E'en an inoffensive colored man did not get a dog or chicken strung about his neck he was lucky. Now it is different.

A REMISDER OF CARNIVAL TIMES. The boys find it difficult to get dead animals or cabbages and now use flour. They band themselves together in groups and by contributing 2 or cents each can purchase a large bag of cheap flonr. Taking the bag to some out of the way spot, where there is no electric lights, they wait for the appearance of an unsuspecting person to dust him with the flourcolored ones the flour contrasts with the complexion. EOTBlNO FOB 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 tne coin keeps it. THE PETTICOAT SPELL. The fair who do not care to have others know their superstitions usually try the petticoat spell as a nieuns of telling who their future husband is to be. "Billow E'en niirlit 1 fro to I put my petticoat nmler lay head.

To dream of tbe living and not of tbe dead. And dreaui ol tbe one wbo 1 stii to When entering her bed room the maiden is to walk directly to the bureau and look into the mirror. Rlie is then to disrobe and make her way to the backward, placing the garment finder her pillow. From the time she enters the room until morning she is not to speak to any one. WHERE TRF.

JOKE COMES IN. An amusing trick is done by the use of two plates. One is to be smutted or smoked on the bottom and placed on a table iu a dark room. 1 Another plate, a clean one, is placed on a table i in a room where there is a dim light. The person whose fortune is to bo told goes into the dark room and has to take the plate and I 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 nctim who uses the smutted plate then finds out what the others are laughing ut. HEAL BALLS AND CHESTNUTS. Making meal balls is a popular trick. Small pieces of paper are secured and the names of i 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 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 store is the future husband or wife, as the case may be. THE RING IK THE CAKE. The use of a ring is also popular at Hallow E'en parties.

A gold ring is put in a cake be- fore it is baked and the cake is sliced in presence of the entire party, and the one who gets the ring in a slice of cake is the one whe is to be married first The ring is kept by the person who gets It as a souvenir of the party. A OHASTLT 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 turn around three times before making choice. The positions of the saucers art- changed and then the person, still blind- folded, is to put his or fcer hand into a saucer and thus determine the bright or sorrowful late in store for the blind-folded one.

THE MOCS3 OF FLOCB. TTIE AI.PHABir AND THE APPLE PARING are also popular modes of trying fate. The mound is made by filling a tea cup with flour and turning it out on a plate. Then those present march to the table and cut a 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 on a 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 future wife or husband. The apple test is done bv removing the paring of an apple in one piece and then whirling it about your head three times and letting it drop behind you. It will form the initial letter of your future husband or wile, A Foot Ball Match. A game of foot ball was played yesterday I nfternoon between the Orients of Washington and the Georgetown College eleven.

The match was won by the latter team by a score of 6 to 0. Tobin. the center rush of the College team, was forced through the Orients' black line after the ball had been downed within about ten feet of "goal line." He then kicked a goal. Scullin and Henchy, half-backs of the College team, made some excellent runs. The game waa called at the end of the first half, on I account of darkness.

There was a large crowd i of spectitors. Death of Richard T. Bentley. Mr. Richard T.

At the time of his death he was president of the Sandy Springs savings bank and of the Montgomery county mutual fire insurance company.

Tlie National Kllles' Reunion. The National 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 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 tbe past the committee has determined to adhere rigidly to the rule to admit only those friends specially favored with nn invitation.

convicted of manslaughter for the killing of Baby Kelson, at Buffalo. N.Y., was yesterday ssateneed to twelve years' imprisonment THE OCCUPIED SIDEWALKS. Loulslaau Avenue Business Men Interacted Id the Coining Trial. The prosecution of persons (or occupying the sidewalk on Louisiana avenue between 9th and 10th streets, as mentioned in yeaterday'g Htau, promises to be interesting The first case to be called is against a dealer who occupies the pavement in front of one of Mr. Redman's buiMings.

It appears that Mr. rents the building to Mr. Michael, and that as. Robertson is a sub-tenant. Mr.

ltobertaon. it is claimed, refuses to pay rent on the ground that citizen, no matter whother he rents a house or not. has no right to collect rent for the public space in front of it. The case, he claims, is one not within the jurisdiction of the Police a landlord-and-tenant case cannot be tried in that tribunal. He admits that the space, like all others on that square, is illegally occupied, but he claims that if he cannot occupy that space no else can, and if convicted and forced to leave the other of sidewalks will also have to vacate them.

Mr. ItobertKon claims that he does not occupy as 1 much of the space as the other merchants are occupying in front of their respective of business. The case hag already been tried before a magistrate, who held that the defendant was in illegal possession of the space, but that it beiug public ground, over whicli no citizen had control. his court had no authority. If the defendant is found guilty of the charge against him other prosecutions will probably folio and some interesting legal questions be raised by Lawyer who will appear for Mr.

Robertscu. The result of the trial will be interesting. a decision in favor of the defendant will be a virtual invitation to squatters to fall upon and seize other portions of the sidewalks on that avenue, and this would probably lead to the revocation of the order made by the Commissioners. Such revocation fill cause great inconvenience to the merchants who occupy the pavements in front of their pUces for their owu business and do not attempt to rent them out. In New York the Central Liquor Dealers' association lias raised the price of ale, porter and beer to ten cents a pint.

Gen. F. E. Spinner, the ex-United States treasurer who was latelv reported as dying of cancer, is now said to be in fair health and engaged upon a book on American finance. He is eighty-eight years old.
