SPREADING OF BONFIRE
CAUSES ALARM At SO. AMB0y

SOUTH AMBOY, Nov. 27.-At
noon yesterday an alarm from box
No. "a brought the entire fire de-
partment to the wood adjoining the
city hospital, where a bonfire. said
to have been lighted by some small
boys, dangerously spread toward the
institution.
This Is the third fire of similar
origin, the firemen were called upon
to extinguish. The great danger of
building fires in the wood does not
seem to strike the boys, who are in
the habit of playing in this manner.
What might have been the result of
Yesterdays fire, should be told the
children by the parents.
Members of the police department
were on hand making an investiga-
ton into the origin of yesterdays
fire.

BIG BUSINESS
IN UNMARRYINC

One OF the really big businesses Of
Pueblo county is that of unmarrying
people.
And while It is business frowned
upon by society in general, it is a
provision of law under certain condi-
tions the remedy.
Divorce actions are brought In the
district as well as in the county court,
though probably 20 per cent Of them
are handled by the county tribunal
The divorce record for the county
court during the year 1921 shows that
1870 couples have had their marital
ties severed and that Of this number
80 have children to the total number
OF 70.
More than twice as many wives a.
husbands brought the actions for
divorce. Forty-two men filed divorce
actions against their wives, and IS
wives sued their husbands
OF causes or grounds assigned In
the complaints seeking legal separn-
tion. almost half We're cruelty. and be-
sides tho 1870 divorce suits handled by
the county court, there were three
marriage annullments which came as
result OF persons being proven been
illegally married. rs when one or tho
other OF the parties had a wife or
husband when marrying tho one seek
