Hrrk New Locations.
Comparative peace and quiet
reigned last night throughout the
greater part of Bend, in spite of the
annual visitation of Hallowe'en.
Chief of Police Nixon with a staff of
three assistants patrolled the streets
I until 2 o'clock this morning, dispers
I ing every group of pranksters and
in some cases conducting them home
to their respective beds, as a safety
precaution.
In spite of these steps the usual
amount of petty mischief was report
ed, the most serious instance being
the removal of an automobile from
the street in" front of the Hippodrome
to Greenwood avenue. Near Mayor
Caldwell's home on Wall street, a
dilapidated buggy was run out Into
the thoroughfare and left there. At
other corners telegraph poles, saw
horses and wheelbarrows were placed
in conspicuous parts of the streets.
Wire Trips Pedestrians.
Perhaps the cleverest prank in
dulged in was the stretching of a
wire across the center of the foot
bridge on the river Just, high enough.
from the floor to catch on the feet
of passersby. Many a pedestrian go
ing home late at night walked into
the snare and was tripped.
Soap and paraffine tracings deco
rate a number of the down town win
dows jut otherwise no damage was
done. Tick-tacks proved a popular
and harmless toy.
Jack o'lantern parties composed ot
small children were broken up and
sent home by the officers, so the
principal part of the ghost-walking;
was confined to back yards and prt-
vate celebrations.
Watchmen at Schools.
Night watchmen were stationed at
all of the school bouses in order to
protect the property. Special Police
Officers Jay Saltzman and Tom Mur
phy patrolled Kenwood and Park ad
ditions, respectively. Officer Frank
Kulp and Chief Nixon guarded the
down town streets early in the even
ing then took automobiles and cov
ered Hastings, Lytle and Center ad
ditions until early morning. Names .
were taken of all parties which were
halted. The largest group was com
posed of 14 children, many of whom
were escorted home.
In the past two years the number
ot occupants of the Jail on Hallowe'en
has diminished from 15 in 1915 to
none in 1917. Last year the occasion
was also celebrated in an orderly
manner.

PETROGRAD, Nov. 1. Finland;
