Iacantat'.ons and Hallowe'en is Duly Honored in 0b-
Vv servance,
The festival' of .All Saints eve. or Hallowe'en, as it is more cominonlv called, is one of the most lovely and •'pinint of the holidays. By tho Scotch people it is particularly observed and from their traditions, legends and folk lore it tukes much of the pleasant mystery and superstition wliich distinguishes it from the other festivals of the chnrch. For ages the rf.'otc peasantry have observed il as a niglit for the working of wonders, the testing of charms, the easting of nets for tardy lovers, and ti thousand other weird ami amusing observances. Strange to relate all the cabalistie rites to be per formed are for the furtherance of good luck and nothing, is done to avert the evil. It is a uighl when warlocks and witches, ghosts and goblings, and especially* thedear little fairies i:i their vi j-ts of. green and gold are nbroi:c! In tiding good fortune anil sweet hearte to all deserving voting people.

The: oVinervunce of Hallowe'en« in America is .provincial rather than national and it is safe to.say that no other place in this section of the country begins to compare witih Crawfordaviiie in the elaborateness ef her celebration ol the holiday. Fur a number of years it has been the-custom of her voting folks to entertain on Hallowe'en and of late the social events have assumed a decided1 recherche tone and as a time for receptions and pleasant parties the ovenI ing has completely superceded New ear's day. Last evening proveil no exception and the society events were all of a most pleasant as well as a dcdt cidei'ly novel character.

cidedly successful event, that ever marked the observance of All Saints eve in Crawfordsville, occur reil last scning at Sherwood IMace, the residence of Maurice Thompson, on east Pike street. No better place could have en selected for the affair as the residence is peculiarly adapted to entertainment. It built on the plan of the old southern mansion house and ie replete with immense parlors, halls aud verandas, nil capable of being thrown together. The young ladies acting ae hostesrea last evening had gone to uuusual trouble in preparation and the affair could have been nothing less than the pronounced success it proved.
The decorations were very extensive and displayed a high order of artistic taste, in the hall were bauks ol immense potted plants, while graceful vine? entwiued the winding stairs and hung from the chandeliers in glistening ribbons. The east side of the mansion is composed of two gnat parlors terminating on the south in a wide latticed veranda. The veranda had been hung with curtains and portiers and was thrown into the same room which the waiting of the parlors made. Thus an immense room, as large, in fact as a good sized ball room was, obtained and here it was that tho receiving was done.. The decorations of the hall way were repeated in the parlors and addi lions made in the shapeof huge bunches of chrysanthemums and hot house (lowers. The air was heavy with the sweet perfumes and under mellow light the appearance of a llowered grotto or bower was presented. At the veranda end of tho long room tho decorations were of a more striking character and harmonized more perfectly with the weird and ghostly. The orchestra was out of view in the hallway and its soft, low music seemed to proceed from some mysterious nowhere and was in perfect accord with the scene presented by the maskers. The ladies were in masque costumes, all of them, and so received their guests, the great majority of whom were also disguised by various striking costumes. Much merriment was naturally occasioned therefore, in the search for friends and quite often laughable mistakes were made. The gentlemen callers nearlv '201) called during the course' of the evening were taken out to refreshments I iv th". ladies who remained masked. Where the identification of his fair entertainer was kept concealed the ordeal was a Irving one for the gentleman although productive o? much merriment in the long run. :\t the south end of tho veranda the 'avors were tendered the guests on leaving the dining room and this feature was one of the most quaint and unique ever presented in the city. A huge caldron hud been hung up and under it a glaring red tire raged with nnearthlv
fierceness. Tic caldron was filled to
oversowing with a siarthng collection of very life like rubber snakes, tarantulas, toads, lizzar.ls and some other horrible creatures which from their genera! makeup might- aptly have typified the fabled .labberwock. Each guest was presented with a replile by Mis1 ora Larsli. who presided in witches' costume at the bubbling caldron's side At the north end of the veranda little Misses Lucilo Somerville and Agnes Thompson attired in long gowns ol white and yellow respectively served a delicious punch from an immense silver punch bowl. It was nearly eleven o'clock before the ladies unmasked anil the dancing begar,'ind it was nearly two o'clock when the last merry guest had departed and tho celebration of All
Hallowe'en was over. The costumes worn by the ladies were unusuallv elaborate, beautiful and quaint and the fol lowing list may serve to give the reader some conception of them:
Miss Hattie Detchon represented "Mirth," pale blue silk with ribbon skirt of all colors and bells on ribbons, also blue cap and bells.
Miss May Kline represented "Gayety," pule blue silk with ribbon skirt of all colors, bells on ribbons of lavender, pink and white, blue cap and bells.
Miss Mayme Smith, "school girl" with checked dress, sun bonnet, and carrying third reader.
Miss Martha Thomas was very becomingly gowned in empire costume of pale pink crepe with pink coral ornaments and nephitos roses.
Miss Mayme Somerville represented a "baby" in long gown of baby blue, baby waist, and huge silk sash drawn under the arms and tied in butterfly bow, hair hanging loose from under baby cap.
Misses Belle Allen and Ada Detchon represented "twin babies," and were at-
dolls and
tired all in while, with bibs, ivory teething rings. Misses Edna Dice and Campbell were gowned in witching "Kate Greenawav1 of sjHitless white, with short gowns, and poke bonnets.

Miss Ota Nicholson represented a "wood nymph" in a gown of white wool fancifully trimmed with trailing vines.
Missee Nell Coutanl and Maude McMechan represented "pop corn" and their handsome red gowns were elaborately trimmed with the delicacv.
Miss Flora Work was a "Grecian maiden" and wore a loose, draped costume of white wool caught up with heavy gold cord.

AT MISS MVI.KM.AN'S.
A very pleasant and select reception of guests was given last evening at the residence of Miss Mabol McClellan by the following young ladies: MissesMabel McClellan, Anna Mill'g in, Mary Campbell, M.iry Elston, Helen Smith, Anna Willson, Mary Gerard, Henrietta Allen. Judge and Mrs. A. I). Thomas and Sir. and Mrs. C. L. Thomas also assisted in the reception of guests here. The residence was beautifully decorated and in every room was profusion of palms, beautiful vines and bright blossoms, Among the cut flowers there was a decided predominance of chrysanthemums and rose6. What added materially to and heightened the effect of the decorations was the large number of "jack o'lanterns displayed. The stairway stood crowded with these grinning and agreeable monsters and the effect produced upon the visitors on entering was at once startling and amusing. The orchestra furnished delightful music from the hallway and for those who chose to dance the large double parlors afforded ample room. The dining room was beautifully decorated with vines and flowers and the table from which elaborate and delicious refreshments were served was a masterpiece. It glistened with silver and cut glass service and as a center piece was an immense cake of ice hollowed out and filled with sherbet. Only about thirty guests w»re invited and all responded. Jt was a very leighlful affair in every sense of the word and the young ladies won new laurels as accomplished entertainers.
Noue of the hostesses were masked and only a few of, the tied is came in costume.
AX INFORMAL AlTAlIi.
From 8 until 12 o'clock the following young ladies received at 012 west Main street: Misses Maud Mahomey, Edna fones of Torre Haute, Murtha Johnson of Logansport, Mary Stevenson, Anna Watson, Madge, Belle and Emma Johnson. The affair was wholly impromptu and informal but was none the less en joyable aud delightful. The guests were received with cordiality and warmth and made to enjoy themselves most thoroughly. Although the young ladies had acted on short notice the call ere were served with choice refreshments and entertained in a most hospitable manner. Tho chandeliers in the different rooms were Bhaded with variegated and mellow lights and the most pleasant effect in color was thus produced. The young ladies received an unusually largi number of guests and although an informal affair it was a thoroughly sue cessful one.

All Saints Day is the birthday of Mrs. G. F. llughee aud about 40 of hor friends took advantage of the fac last evening to tender her a pleasant surprise party at her home on east .Main Btreet. In honor of the evening Iho entire party assembled at Dr. McOormick's and decking themsolves out as ghosts in sheets and pillow cases de scended upon the llughes mansion The surprise was a complete one and the evening was very pleasantly passed with cards, dancing and other amuse ments.
TIIK KAIN HOW ('I.riJ.
The storm of yesterday had its rain bow, not in the Bky but at the residence of J. C. Horubeck on east Main streot, where ribbons of all possible colors and in boundless profusion constituted the principal decorations. This rainbow, unlike the ordinary ones, portended not fair weather but hospitality and pleasure. Ami the signB did not fail. The young ladies here treated their friends in royal style and made tliem feel that it was good to live on this particular spot of this particular planet at this particular time. What their guests would have missed if they had been so unfoi lunate as to be inhabitants of Mars for instance! To set off tho ribbons were addeu autumn leavep, smilax and growing plants. The following young ladies constitute the Kain Bow Club: Misses Etta Alfrey, SiiBio Alfrey, Mabel .Smith, Mintie Goben, Grace Cavanaugh, Mollie McLain, Jennie McCormick, Laura Brothers nnd Mrs. W. M. Chapman.
XIIE JOLLY 01,1) MAHI1KKS.
Some call them the "Jolly Old Maids" but THE JOUHNAL found out this morning that this was all a mistake. But there is no mistake about their being jolly as all who called at the residence of J. II. Shue last evening will testify. The club is composed of Misses Anna

Mit-seB Jessie Thomsur. and Mary cleave. The rooms were daintily
touched up with chrysanthemums except the one where the ladies served refreshments, which was profusely draped with myrtle and autumn loaves. All callers were handsomely entertained imi the charming hostesses will be long rememberd by their guests.
ON WEST MAIN KTHEKT.
tine of the most delightful affairs of the evening occurred at the home of Miss Allie Marshall, on west Main street. She was assisted in entertainng bv Misses Maud Bunnell, May O'Haver, Jessie GiiUey, Clara Alston, Flora Shultz, Minnie Richmond, Carrie Human, Lottie ltobinson, Florence Bennett. Kate Snyder, Winnie Gerard, Flora Kostanzer, Annie O'Haver, Maud HuleU, liolierta Kmut, llatlie I'urcel and Dora Burke.
There was almost a jam of guests from 8 o'clock until midnight, but ttie young ladieB managed to take care of all and noue were slighted. Eddie Hrandkamp furnished the music which occasionally a few couples tip[od the iglit fantastic. A source of great amusenvnt was the gypsv fortune teller who with a musty deck of cards told fortunes without money and without price—considerably cheaper than Mrs. Crowe. Tho holies of future happiness and wealth that she raised were only equalled by the number of hopes she blasted by predicting ill luck and misfortune. It any one look those predictions in earnest they will bo intorested in ka.-wing that the old gypsy was probably Mrs. East luck well disguished. The decorations here consisted of ferns and chrysanthemums in abundance. Jn tho diningrootn yellow was the prevailing color and yollow favors were given the guests before their departure.
Oil -SOUTH WATKlt STHEI.T. The above caption has no poetry about it except to those who were at that place hist evening and enjoyed the entertainment offered there. It was a patriotic occasion, too, for the decorations consisted exclusively of the National colors, red white and blue. Everywhere was peon the hues of "old glory" except on tho young ladies who, to off set the patriotic sentiments aroused by the colors of the flag, so some evil minded persons said, were attired in nothing but red. Anarchistic red. Of course this was a wrong interpretation of their costumes which were meant to show their loyalty to the town which backs up tho Wabash foot ball team. In addition to their red drosses which were made of cheese cloth, thoy all wore pretty red caps. Over two hundred callers were served to refreshments and listened to the music furnished by different ones of the hostesses whese names are as follows: Misses Mae Wasson, Grace Ellis, Millie Jett. Fannie Birch, Mayme AVray, Fanuie Smitt^ Ollie Tolbert, Ada Hathaway, Daisy Ellis, Lvdia Dillman, Clenia Birch, Sallie Harney, Grace Kohls, Ada Epperson, Rose Sweet, Ann'e Winters, Annie Carroll, Maggie Cox, Bess Birch.
