CUPID BUREAU AVERAGES
TWEL We LICENSES A DAY
OF ia Issued Since Inception, IS Per Cent. Have Gone to Couples
Requiring an Interpreter to Translate Their
Hearts Desire Into English.

The marriage license bureau at the
City Hall has now peer in operation
two months. In that time 724 licenses
have been granted. More than IS per
cent. of these have been issued to
couples who have required the services
of an interpreter to answer the ques-
tions required by the new law, and
people of almost every race have APP
ypeared before the bureau for the neces-
sary papers. Since the addition to the
Office staff of Isidore Schapira, who was
the successful candidate at the recent
examination for the position Of inter-
prefer, the work of the department has
progressed much more smoothly and
quickly.
During the months of october and
November the bureau expects to be
unusually busy with applications from
the Slav population. as it is during
those months that. the people of that
nationality prefer to celebrate their
weddings. 1t is a period that corre-
spends very closely to the June bride
season in the arrangements OF the
native-born American.
The bureau does not look for very
much of a rush of the so-called Amer
lean element until after the first Of
the year and, in fact, there will be a
very small average from this class
until well along In the spring. Or
course, II is a difficult matter to antici-
pate the demands that will be made
upon the department for any given
time, and all presidents have been
shattered ever in the short time the
bureau has been In operation. but the
experience of the past two months has
enabled the clerks TO get a pretty fair
idea OF what to expect at certain sea-
Z IS.
wedding Seasons Vary
1t will. perhaps, be news to many to
learn that in the matter of weddings
there are as well defined reasons among
the various races of people living in
this city as there are In the observ-
ance of feast and fast days or In the
recognition of other anniversaries. and

with some of THE nations represented
this observance of given seasons for
marriage is an important part of their
religion.
One reason why the work of the
bureau is progressing so much more
smoothly than at first is because peo-
pie are getting a better idea of what
is required of them, and they now
come prepared to answer the questions
that form part of the application.
Formerly the couples approached the
bureau with fear and trembling and
rather assume the guise of condemned
prisoners who were to appear before
some trial board. Gradually this feel
ing has worn off, and the simple rou-
tine required is disposed of quickly and
pleasantly.
In the matter of Identification also
the work has been greatly simpliied,
and the applicants now almost inya-
riabiy appear with someone who is
bile to vouch for them according to
the requirements of the bureau. In
most cases a responsible business man
who is acquainted with both parties is
acceptable to the examining clerks, and
little or no delay is encountered in this
end of the work.
Not a Single Complaint.
Although some complicated cases
nave from time to time confronted the
bureau, there has never beer one that
was not Strengthened out satisfactorily
and not n complaint has thus far
been lodged against the bureau or its
action in any specific case.
The average of twelve licenses a day
that has been maintained for the past
two months is expected to increase
from now on, and in fact for the past
week or ten days the average has
Jumped to IA a day. AS the holiday
season approaches the average is ex-
pected to reach Is or even more, but
whatever 1t is the bureau is now
equipped to handle the rush and can
cope with almost any situation that
may arise.

GREAT SCHEME
TO GET WEALTHY
OKLAHOMA MANS SCHEME HAS
STANDARD OIL BEATEN A
BLOCK,

Guthrie, Okla, April Is. - A Guthrie
banker believes that the limit of high
finance has been reached in a scheme
proDoSed to him by an oklahoman
eager to join the "get -rich-auickp So
ciety. These figures are taken from
the prospectus.
/ An Investment of 5000 paid IN by
three stockholders, each holding one
OF the three shares Of the company. and
300 geese at 81 each: total, 5000. The
estimated production liz three eggs n
week from each goose, making 800
eggs a week, 26,SO0 a year, and for three
years Cthe life Of the company, 140. 600.
None OF the eggs are to be sold, but
all incubated and Matched, and allow
ing 10000 for bad eggs, there would
be total of 100000 goslings. In three
years each goose would produce, con
servatively," three pounds of feathers.
which at 81 a pound would amount
TO 100000. From 100, 900 goose livers
would be received 100000. Estimating
twenty buttons from each goose bin.
and the price OF cent a button. there
would be $4,000 from 2.O0e,O00 goose
bill buttons while from zoe. 900 market
ed geese at $3.50 each would be derived
the sum Of s150,000.
The operating expenses are estimated
at $4,000. TO which should be added
the $500 paid in by stockholders and
invested In goose eggs, making the
total outlay $190300. The total re-
ceipts, as enumerated, would be $780,
600, making the enormous net profits
of $S39,700 in three years, or an annual
dividend of s37,744 for each stock |
holder.
This scheme is said to have been /
thought out by a man living in town
who has devoted much time TO /
the theoretical results of poultry
