aO,1Ss Marriages In Michigan Last Year


There were 90, 1873 marriages returned
by the county clerks to Secretary OF
State Stearns for the year 1898. This
is the largest number ever recorded for
a single year and represents mar
riage rate of 1863 per 1000 population.
The largest number of marriages took
place in November, 1894; while the
smallest number, 1909, was In Febru-
airy. Next to November, June and
then October, seem to be the favorite
months for marriage. The favorite
ages were between 20 and 25 for both
brides and grooms Probably the old
est age at marriage on record occurred
in a case reported from Washtenaw
county, in which the age of the groom
was given as ITO years, while the bride
was 81.

a MYTHICAL FIRE.

Joke on "a Group of Ftremen for Which II.
j. Howard was Innoceni1y Responsible.
A contingent of Resolute Hook and
Ladder Company responded to call
Monday morning which was not received
through the customary medium of an
alarm. To Harry Wolfe, it is said, the
credit should fall for having called out
the little group of brave firemen.
Mr. Wolfe was passing the store of p.
j. Howard on Speedwell avenue, when
he saw smoke issuing from that building.
1t was only the work of few seconds to
cross the street to the Truck house. The
little group gathered there, always
awaiting in the vicinity in order that
they may be the first to respond to an
alarm, postponed their discussion of the
Philippine question and rushed across
the street to Howard's store. Foreman
George Goblet was armed with a seven
pound axe and carried ladder. Some
one called for the fire apparatus and as
this was just across the street it was sug-
gested that John Little, who had arrived
upon the scene of the unusual excite.
ment, pull the truck over, it being too
short distance to bring into service the
horses. John objected to this arrange
ment unless Frank Cihlar would help
him.
In the meantime quite crowd had
gathered outside Howards store. Fore
man Cobbett had been busily engaged in
trying to cut with his seven-pound axe a
girder which he thought was wood, but
afterward discovered was iron. One of
the firemen went tothe cellar and there
found Mr.. Howard leisurely engaged in
making fire in the furnace, unconscious
of the excitement his efforts had caused
the crowd outside.
Now, those firemen who were first at
the scene of the imaginary blaze, are
asking upon whom the joke falls Mr..
Howard is certainly exempt and Messrs.
Cihlar and Little, in their failure to
bring the truck, escape the joker's indul-
gence; and it looks as if the laugh was
on Foremen Cobbett and his little band
of tiremen. AT any rate the foreman will
have to explain to members how he pro-
posed to cut through an iron girder, even
with the heaviest axe the company owns
And it would be no more than fair if Mr..
Wolfe, who belongs to another company,
would explain why he did not send in an
alarm in the customary WaV,
