COUNCIL FACES TASK OF CLEARING RECORDS

Business Which Has Been In Hands of Committees for Some Time to Be TakeA XTp Monday.

Efforts will be made at the regular November meeting of the city council toriiorrow night to clear up a large amount of business which has been in the hands of committees for months.

It is probable that the council among other matters, will vote $25,000 from the general fund to be applied on street Intersection certificates oh all paved streets of the city, Issued during the 1914 paying campaign, with the exception of North Third street, North Fifth street and College avenue, on whloh streets court action is pending relative to assessments.

The matter of purchasing two pulmotors, one for the fire department and one for the police department, also will be discussed. It is understood the majority of the council favors the purchase of the two machines.

The petition of the traffic officers for an increase In pay from 5 per cent additional to regular salary1 to 10 per cent, which was. presented some time ago, probably will be disposed of, as will the petition of the city firemen asking that they be allowed full pay of $90 a month after five years' servI«» l«ste6d of Sfter ten years as the l$w Is now..

A petition from the day nui^sery for rfemission of taxes amounting1 to abou^ $88 will be acted upon.

The tax levy of $1.11 provided for In the annual budget of City Controller Man court will be stricken from the files as the time for adoption has passed and the tax levy of the 1912 budget, $1.15 on the $100, will continue. The salary ordinance also will be strloken from the files as the matter of reduction In salaries was dealt with when the 1916 budget was passed and the ordinance Is unnecessary.

An appropriation ordinance calling for $3,000 for prosecution of the city's case against the traction company for lower light rates, probably will come up for final action at Monday's meeting also. The city has appropriated money for the gas and water cases.

BOARD WARNS ATJT0ISTS.

Urgep Adoption of Dimmer to Use With Bright Lights. The board of safety is mapping out a campaign against brilliant lights on automobiles and motorcycles and has advised all owners to supply themselves with some sort of device to dim the lights. President Braden recently bought some dimmers for his machine, which the board indorses. The dimmer is in the nature of a cap which fits over the under side of the electric light bulb, thus throwing the light all to the top of the reflector, which, in tuvn, varies It to the ground so that in the end the full value of the light is obtained and at the same time eyes of those approaching are not blinded. "We do not demand that automobile and motorcycle owners purchase this kind of dimmer," said Rev. A. E .Monger, member of the board, yesterday, "but merely suggest that it is a very satisfactory one and can be obtained at a moderate prtoe."

Women's Gipsy Boots

Observance of Hallowe'en. Gives Police No Trouble, Although Big Crowds Are on Street.

Hallowe'en came and passed last night unusually noisy but minus the usual rowdyness. It was a night of hilarious celebration. Terre Haute turned out to enliven the street scenes ancl the business district was crowded.

Police were busy keeping the crowds moving in the business section and ex,tra policemen were placed in the congested districts to keep order. The masqueraders and the spectators refrained from rowdy demonstrations, however, and it was only occasionally that the police were oalled upon to quiet any of the celebrators.

Police Not Overworked.

"Charlie Chaplins," "French soldiers," ghosts, witches, gypsies, clowns, negroes and other comedians crowded and elbowed through the streets, in a conglomeration of costumes, characters and colors.

At. one time a parade of fifty or more of the celebrators marched single file through the streets to the tunes of a clown band. This demonstration probably attracted more attention than any of the others during the night

There werp but few calls to police headquarters of any damage being done over the city and scarcely any rowdyism was reported. The day force of patrolmen was on duty until 11 o'clock at night, but did not have much to do. The night was declared by the police to be one of the quietest Hallowe'ens in years.

BOYS ENJOY FE8TIVAL.

More Than 150 Take Part In Celebration At Club Rooms. The Flora Gulick Boys' club was the scene of a gay festival last night when more than 150 youngsters gathered in the club rooms to celebrate Hallowe'en. At the top of the stairs a big pumpkin head greeted the visitors. The rooms were artistically decorated in true Hallowe'en fashion.

Many of the boys wore fancy costumes and the prize for the best "make up" was awarded to Clayton
