The Best Marrying Countries.

Where in Europe has a woman the best chance of securing a husband. Sir J. A. Baines had much to say on this subject recently. when he gave his in- augural address before the Royal Sta tistical society. A generation ago, he said, the marriage rate was held to be a good barometer of prosperity, but new factors had entered into the case. The main thesis was still, no doubt, generally true. that wherever there was room for two to live together up to the conventional standard of com fort marriage took place.
 Statistics indicated, on the whole, a Slight falling off in the general rate during the last thirty years, more pro- nounced among the already low rates Of Scandinavia than elsewhere. It WAS in the south that a woman seemed to have the best chance of husband, through from Denmark southwards central Europe was apparently on the up- grade in this line.
 Of all the progressive countries Fin land presented the greatest falling off. in Ireland there was a decline of near Iy 19 per cent, and in the last dec ads less than third of the women were married. The increased avoid ance of rnatrimony was most marked Throughout the United Kingdom and north Scandinavia; and this, in the northern aggregate. almost neutralized the growing connubiality of Germany and most of its neighbors, and even of the already mathematical Italy.
 People get married a little more fl1an they did a generation ago. and in most countries they married earlier, but the growth of the relative number of the married has been accompanied by material decline in the birth rate The community was therefore almost everywhere becoming an older one.

Quail Plentiful as sparrows.

The spectacle of the biggest city of Washington organizing a munich pal quail hunt may soon be seen here. Remarkable as it may seem. Seattle is so overrun with these game birds that they are becoming a pest, are ruining gardens and are making seri- ous encroachments on grain supplies in the city. This state of affairs has been brought to pass by the law that prohibits the use of firearms in the city and the law of nature, that one pair of quail, if left alone, will pro- duce HOO quail in three years. Quail native to Kinnear park and the unoc- cupied lands along the shores of Lake Washington and Union have multi piled with their usual fecundity ever since Seattle has been on the map, and have gradually become accustomed to the noise and activity of the city. Finding themselves unharmed even by the small boy with the slingshot, the birds have become as plentiful as sparrows and coveys are to be found at all times of the day scattered all oyer the city from the residence DOT ~tion to the waterfront docks. Early trolley cars stir them as they feed, and each time the whir of their wings sound. Commuters swear softly and think of the seeds they have planted and which have failed to come up merely because the quail have been there first. The subject is now being taken up unofficially by the residents of the outlying portions of the city and an effort will be made shortly to have the city council provide some means of ridding Seattle of its game bird nuisance,

BRIDE HIS CHRISTMAS GIFT.
Young Englishman Wins Her After
 Two Days Wooing.

New York. Dec. 26.-William Blais- dell, a stalwart young Englishman, who came to New York onAWednesday from his home in British Columbia, thought last night he had received the best Christmas gift of the town, for after a whirlwind wooing of two days he won and married the girl of his choice. The bride was Miss Bernedette Glasson of Montreal, whose father was a we'll known lawyer of that city until his death. a year ago.
 Miss Gleason and MT. Blaisdell were friends when the latter was the college football idol in Montreal, year ago. MT. Baisde1l, Sr., established a drug store for his son recently in British Columbia. and the young man con- ceived the plan of beginning business with a wife's assistance. So he de- cided to come to New York to find out if his reasoning did not appeal to Miss Glasson. The result was the wedding yesterday afternoon in the rectory of the Roman Catholic Church of the Blessed Sacrament, No. 146 West Fist street.
 The couple left for Montreal Satur- day. and go later to their home in British Columbia.

New EnsIand's Variable Weather.

Some leading points from the New Bedford weather records are these: The wettest year from 1874 to 1908 was 1929, when the rainfall was 65.41 inches. In 1880 they had 64.66, and the first few wettest years in order were 1927. 1850, 1898 and 1890. Be- ginning at the other end of the rec ord the dryest years in order were 1s46, 1s4s. 1885, 1856, 1925. 1888, 1928, is42. 1897. 1881. 1853, 1919 and 1860, for 1t was by no means true at that station that last year was the dryest, for it's total was 41.SS inches. The dryest year there had only 34.51. The early year of 1915 fell far below the average for the entire period of 46.65, for it had only 40.78 inches In 1918 they had only 40.77. The very first 1819 they dropped to 3966; in 1923 they went to the other extreme with 5s.ss, and in 1925 were down again ot ,3S.09. So dry and wet are nothing new in that part of Massachusetts. New Bedford seems to beat the rec ord by far for an overwhelming out pouring from the skies. It will be mo- ticed, with an average rainfall of AS Inches, it should average inches per month, and therefore these multiplied pages for figures go along. year after year, with an average rainfall of eomething less than four inches per month. The March blizzard of 1SSs at Amherst, reduced to water, yielded only 5.e6 inches for the entire month, And it was only 6.4S at Springfield The Amherst station shows 14.51 for July, 1897 (when Springfield had 1499 Tor the same month) and the October Following had only 0.73 of an inch. But New Bedford, in August, 1926, had NI. F~n 70 t..oI A-. Amherst had for the entire year of 1908. These figures of maximum and minimum will confirm the impression that New England weather is some what variable.

PHONE REUNITEs BROTHERS.
Separated for 20 Years, Chance Call
 Brings Them Together Again.

Denver Dec. 26.-Charles H. and John w. Harrison, brothers, who h.ld not heard of each other for twenty years. were strangely reunited Christ mas night through a telephone call.
 More than twenty years ago, when twelve years old, Charles Harrison ran away from his home at Lawrence. Kansas. He drifted to Colorado and became a successful mining prospec- tor. In the meantime John W. Harri- son settled in Wyoming as one of the construction engineers in the Union Pacific service.
 Friday Charles Harrison went to the office of s. D. Krupp on legal bus mess. While he was there the te!e- phone rang.
 Excuse me a moment" said the lawyer. I've got a long, distance call from man of your name, Harrison, up Laramie way
 Whats his first name?" inquired the mining man, casually
 'John-Jol1n w. Harrison"
 What" yelled the visitor, Why, maybe-here-s' and MT. Harrison grabbed the telephone from the law yer's hands.
 i1s this John w. Harrison?" he asked He was assured it was.
 Did you live in Lawrence, Kansas, when you were a boy?"
 "Yss"
 "Did you have an elder brother named Charles?''
 Well, this is Charles" Then the brothers had a long con- ference. in which each told of his bus mess success The result was that John w. Harrison is on his way to Denver, where the brothers will meet.

BREED THEATER.
The Indian, Powerful Story Of South
 west.

The feature picture for the Breed theater for the first part of this week Is entitled The Indian. and is a pow srful story of the southwest, some fifty years ago, when the Indians pretended friendship for their pale faced broth CTS and yet proved treacherous in the extreme.
 It is an acknowledged fact that "a redskins hate never abates, his friend ship is sure. but his animosity surer,' '' and 1t is on just such Friendship and Just such hate that this picture story hinges. The story opens with some in- teresting scenes upon the plains, under the light of the moon, the capture of the prairie schooner and the burning of it being two of especial merit.
 The entire bill Is one of great inter- est, and includes some of the best com edy of the season, the dramatic portion showing the last reel of the Jean Val jean series, depicting the concluding chapter of Hugo's Les MiserableS," a series of pictures that have attracted more attention from the literary and artistic world than any other film in years
 Master Harry Noonan will be heard all this week in high class and illus trated songs, featuring only the newest and best in each class.
