O! the worlo was foil Of the summer time,
And the year was always June,
When we two played together
In the days that were done too soon.
O! every hand was an honest hand,
And every heart was true,
When you were king Of the COMMANDS
And was queen with you.
When could believe in the fairies still,
And Our elf in the cottonwood tree,
And the pot Of gold at the rainbow's end
And you could believe in me.
Speckle Burnham sat on Mary Eliza'e
front porch waiting until she finished
her practicing. Apparently he was not
in hurry for her to do 30. He shuffied
his bare feet unessily over the splintery
boards when the dragging. hopeless
humping within quickened in tempo
to a rapid. hurried volley of sounds
telling that Mary Eliza's "hour" was
nearly over and that che was proddipe

patience.
Indeed, cares OF state were weighing
heavily upon Speckle. and he had some
excuse for gravity. for Speckle was g
prince in his own righs and ruler oil
men.
In Speckle Burnham's back yard were
half-a-dozen drygoods boxes OF large
dimensions, placed evenly in row
against the eide of the barn, aud there
was Spe- kle's empire. It had long beer

Speckle's street to collect their scat

booths and organize q community; but
without Speckle's wonderful executive
ability the thing would never have beer

LII the fret place, Speckle had the
most disreputable back yard in the
community. 1t would have been quite
out Of the question to have Uttered W
any other yard on the street with half
a.dozen drygoods boxes and the assorted
chattels Of their respective occupants
But Speckle's folks had been farming

as the natural repository for such en-
cumbrances as were In the way in thu

Speckle had offered his yard az a pos

other boys brought their drygoods boxes
and called the town Speckleville in

Now it must not be thought that
Speckleville was transient town. such

townships in the northern part of
the state, which was recently re-

show that there had been any births
or deaths in the township during

promptly replied that he had been
supervisor OF the township for Il

that the population was made up of

A Lake Michigan Gale Was
Rough For Chicago
Tugs.
FOUR TOWS LOST IN STORM
One of Them Reported to be
Lost Entirely, But May
BE Safe.

Mackinaw City, Mich, Sept. 2S.-
The Chicago tugs Andrew Green and
Mccarthy, bound from Chicago to
Toledo, met disaster in the gale on
Lake Michigan Wednesday night.
The Green is here with one of the
three scows she had in tow, but the
Mccarthy is missing.
The boats encountered the gale
at 8 O'Clock when about half way
from Green Bay to the Straits. Two
scows that the Green had in tow,
one wood and one steel, broke
adrift near Seul Choix point. The
boats parted company during the
night.
The captain Of the Green believes
the Mccarthy sought shelter under
some of the islands at the foot of the
lake. The Mccarthy had a scow
and dredge in tow.

RATE OF INTEREST GOES UP
Auditor General Notifies the
County Treasurer That q
New Law Is I'm Force.

The rate of interest on taxes paid
to the county treasurer has been in
creased from 8 to IL per cent per
year, according to the provisions Of
the new law which went into effect
last Saturday. Comparatively few
people were aware of the change.
The following telegram was received
by County Treasurer VIM. T. Menge
Friday of last week from Auditor
General Roscoe D. Dix, of Lansing:
ION and after today, charge in
terest on payment of taxes at rate
of one per cent per month or frac-
tion thereof from date of return to
date of payment.
The rate heretofore paid to the
treasurer has been only 8 per cent.
Many people allowed their taxes to
be returned to the county treasurer
as delinquent, and paid them when
ever it was convenient. With the
new law now in force it will be much
cheaper for them to pay their taxes
to the village aud township treasur-
ers when due.

2O,13 Marriages In Michigan
Last Ycar-Largest Number
Ever Recorded i'm one Year.
ONE GROOM 40 YEARS OLD
And Eleven Others We're Over
80 Years-MOst Favor
able Months.

There were 20, 1873 marriages re-
turned by the county clerks of Mich
igan to Secretary Of State Stearns
for the year 1898. This is the larg-
est number ever recorded for a
single year and represents mar
riage rate of 16.9 per 1000 popula-
tion. The largest number of mar
riages took place in November,
1854; while the smallest number,
1902, was in February. Next to
November, June, and then October,
seem to be favorite months for mar
riage.
OF the total IL, 935 were between
natives of the United States, and
2,6S6 were between persons of
foreign birth. The favorite ages
were between 20 and 25 for both
brides and grooms. There were
1911 marriages in which both par

to this period in frequency come
marriages of males of the ages of 20
to 25, and females under 20, of
which there were 1893. There were
IL couples in which the groom was
oyer so, in only one of which, how
ever, the bride was equally aged.
Probably the oldest age at mar
riage on record occurred in IL case
reported from Washtenaw county,
in which the age of the groom was
given as 10 years, while the bride
was 81 This seemed so cXtraordin-
ary that special inquiry was made
of the county clerk as to the ac-
curacy of the report, with the re-
suit that he stated that an affidavit
to that effect was on file.
