his special lieutenants in blue uniforms
and brass buttons, vulgarly referred to as extra police. Chief Places Limit. Chief Goodwin oersonallv eave his
assurance that he will permit all the
celebration necessary to mark the passage of All Saints Eve but "within reason." "They can throw corn and pumpkins, can they not?" he was asked. "Yes, they cannot!" he replied, "no corn, no pumpkins and no cabbaee.
Also no turnips," he added as an after-
tnought. "Nothing hard." They can throw confetti then, I suppose." "No, no confetti. There's a city ordinance against it," said the chief. "How about Irish confetti?" "What's that?" "More commonly brickbats." "Oh! well, there's nothing doing with the brickbats, either." "Powder puffs?" "Go the limit. We wont' kick on powder puffs." Use Powder Puffs. There is the edict. There are nlentv
of available powder puffs in Richmond
should the A. H. C. R. accept the chief's suggestion. Also, by way of added snire'eKHnn
things that should not be done, the
chief's ideas embody these mischievous All Saints night pranks:
Falling to restore woodsheds to their
foundations after removing them for any purpose.
Not refilling gasoline tanks of autos purloined for joy rides. Deserting dirt wagons in the middle of sidewalks down town or in the suburbs. ' Burning fences. Bonfires of fences
absolutely will not be tolerated. Fences
may be torn down auietlv but must be
replaced in tneir original condition and
position without disturbing the own
er. Putting wheels on porch furniture or furnishing empty houses with it. This mieht cause some confusion next
spring when outdoor weather starts
again, the chief said.
Will Annoy Place. Care must be exercised not to dam
age door bells and not to tret shot in
playing- with them. In either case, it
would be some annoyance to owners and in case of shooting, to the police also. Live stock must he chased back to the barns at the close of the evening's entertainment." Masks will be tolerated with moderation. Masqueraders must not act ruffianly. '." ... There are many other alluring ways of spending a Halloween. One can dress like a ghost and say "boo!" at member of the family if care be exercised not to cause them a nervous shock. 1 Other Indoor Sports. Autumn leaves for parafining are plentiful. They should be strung on thread, black preferred because it will not show, and draped about the parlor ceiling. ' Exonerating sport can be had without great danger by engaging in what is known as "bobbing for apples," the apples being placed in a tub of water and seized with the teeth. Girls will take advantage of the opportunity of discovering their lovers' initial with ' long apple peels tossed over the left or right shoulder. This knowledge can be augmented with a quiet and awesome evening on each side of a "weegie board" which is said to have spelled the names of many a man since become a husband.
LONTZ OPENS
Continued From Page One. from the Richmond Industrial Development company which raised $100,000 a few weeks ago to attract industries with bonus offers. The annual payroll is expected to. be $250,000. Send Cut Rush Orders. The organization wa3 completed yesterday to the selection of a manager and arrangements for incorporation in the sum of $100,000, contracts were let and orders were sent flying in every direction for immediate shipments of materials. A big force of workmen started excavations for the foundations for a new building back of the F and N. Lawnmower company's office building and the old gas tractor building in the M. Rumely company group on Washington avenue. The gas tractor building and the new building both will be used by the foundry company. The foundry floor space will be approximately 43,000 square feet, probably ranking in size close to a malle
able iron foundry in Indianapolis which is one of the biggest in the United States. The gas tractor building is 100 by 300 feet and the new building will be 75 by 180 feet Lontz Predicts Boom. Mr. Lontz expressed his confidence in the future of the new company, which is his project. He believes it will be a good financial investment for the company and for Richmond from the start. Particularly, he said, he be
lieves it is a big thing for Richmond. "Richmond Is going to boom!" he confidently declared today when making public the new organization. He added with emphasis that there will be other new factories here and good ones. The strings are out in the Richmond Industrial Development company, of which , he is president, and results soon will be returning. "If we don't get them from other cities, we will start new factories here ourselves," said Mr. Lontz. Begin Work at Once. "We are going to begin work here
in CO days. We have a regular bee
hive down here already. Materials be
gan to arrive this morning and we are beginning to equip the gas tractor building." Prospects for business are not only excellent but malleable iron is commanding a high figure at the present time. Industries which use malleable Iron are booming in every part of the country, he said. The new factory probably will mean that no less than 200 families will move to Richmond from other cities,
which is about four times the number
which has been attracted from Richmond within the past year. In the families will be about 1,000 persons, figured on the government census average. It Is possible a new housing problem will be created which will have to be taken care of separately. The new company has no connection with a malleable iron company which endeavored to secure a building for a foundry in the triangle between the Chicago and Indianapolis tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad in Fairview. This foundry is a small one now located at Cambridge City. It is probably lost to Richmond for lack of facilities for handling it. With the gas tractor building occupied, practically no space is at hand here for new factories. A small building will be available in Beallview, built for the Brown Collar Pad factory.

For the convenience of our Gas Customers we will put in operation on Npvember 1st, 1916, anew system of reading meters and making bills for gas used, which will do away with the congested condition in the office usually prevailing on the 8th, 9th and 10th of each month. Instead of the periodical meter reading of about one week from the 20th to 26th of the month we will have Continuous Meter Reading beginning the first of the month and ending about the 25th of the month. . . The City will be divided into 20 districts and the bills for each district will become due and payable on different dates, thus distributing the payment of gas bills over the entire month. At the top of the meter statement left you by the meter reader you will see your last discount date and discounts will not be allowed unless bills are paid on or before the date indicated on meter statement. , After November. 10th, 1916 the office will not be open on any night.
