Robert Armstrong also wanted some
attention paid to the alley between
Bowery and Hill streets.
The Street committee was instructed
TO investigate these complaints.
Attorney ID. Lindley Sloan, who had
now arrived, was asked about the Broad
way paving matter. He stated that
Broadway, or any other street, could be
paved only under the provisions of the
Act of General Assembly of Maryland
of 1902. This Act provides that Coun-
Gil may pass an Ordinance to pave any
street, provided the proper notice is
given to the owners of property on said
street. and the cost apportiOned among
the said property-owners and the town
the town to pay one-third of the cost,
the other two-thirds to be apportioned
among the abutting property owners.
Walter W. Wittig and others spoke of
paving Broadway.
Mr.. Sloan suggested that the proper
way would be for Council to advertise
the fact that at some certain time they
would meet to pass an Ordinance pro-
viding for the paving of Broadway. and
at the same time to give hearing to the
interested property owners. This was
finally put into the form of IA motion
and Monday, July 81, was selected as
the time for said meeting.
The matter of passing an Ordinance
providing for the appointment of Com
mission to assess the cost of paving
Union street against the property-own-
ers and the Cumberland and Western
port Electric Railway Company on that
portion between the intersection of

Marry AMI Part For q Year.

Among the many peculiar customs
prevalent among the people Of Central
America Is that of parting for one year
after the marriage ceremony has been
solemniZed This custom has prevailed
among the .Iarnos from time immemo-
rial. There is no courtship allowed to
be carried on between the parties prior
to the wedding When man selects
woman he obtains the consent of the
parents on both sides. and if this is
given they are al once married The
reason. however. for their not living
together as man and wife for one year
after marriage is in order to permit of
the parties visiting and staying with
their respective friends in different
