Legislature of Maryland at it's recent session
and which the Governor signed on April 3,
was that known as the automobile bill, which
repeats and re enscts the whole Of the old

material both from the standpoint Of the au
tomobilist and the public. Some of the
principal features Of the new law are as fol-
lows.

rs well as on the back of the cars and 10 be
fixed stationary in conspicuous place.

except cities of 10000 inhabitants, where the
speed limit is 10 miles an hour. The maxi
mum speed in the open country is also 10
miles an hour. This, of course, Is made sub.
ject to the requirement that the speed shall
never be greater than is reasonable, having
regard TO the trafilc and use of the highways.
In meeting horses the speed must be reduced
to six miles an hour, and If the horses ap
pear frightened or II the driver IN charge Of

tended by man, the person in charge OF the
motor vehicle Is 10 use every reasonable pre-
caution to avoid frightening such horse and

alght therefrom, and lead such horse by the
motor vehicle, and take such other precau-
lions as may be necessary to avoid accident.
In passing horses left unattended by the
roadside, whether hitcbed or unhitched. and
whether in city, town or village. or 10 the
open country, the PERSON In charge Of the
motor vehicle shall reduce the speed thereof
to mile in ten minutes, and upon any sign
of the horse being frightened shall stop and
give nOtice of his approach by blast Of his
horn or other signal device, and remain
standing until the owner of the horse car
