Press Annapolis, Takes Virginia
Girl For His Bride

/ At ''Powhatan near Fredericksburg,
Va, at high noon today a wedding
| of much local interest was celebrated.
| The groom is Mr.. G. Wythe Mum
! ford, the Associated Press correspon-
dent for Annapolis, and for some
| years connected with the staff of the
Evening Capital, as well as eoirespon-
dent for a syndicate of Baltimore,

The bride is Miss Sophia Ridgely
Tayloe, of Virginia, daughter of Mrs.
Sophia P. Tayloe, and the late Will
lam Tayloe. The wedding ceremony
was performed in the old colonial
home of the brides mother, the
large old hall being chosen for the
scene. This was decorated profusely
with golden-rod and cosmos. The
officiating clergyman was the Rev.
Roy Mason, of the Episcopal Mission
Home, Virginia, and formerly of West
River, this county.
The wedding was at high noon, and
promptly at that hour the happy
couple entered the hall to the strains
of the bridal chorus from Lohengrin,
played by Mrs. William Shepherd (nee
Eleanor Cheston), of West River. this
county. The bride was given in mar
riage by her brother, Mr.. Bladen

MADISON ST. PAVED
Work Completed Today viii Add
to Comfort of Citizens
AN ACT OF JUSTICE
City Engineers Department Kept Busy
This Fall With Street II
improvements

The paving of Madison and Second
streets by Contractor George Jewell,
under the direction of City Engineer
j. c. Little was completed TODAY.
Both improvements will greatly beau
tify those portions of the city and will
increase the comfort of the residents
in the sections.
AS in the case of other improve
ments of the kind, there is no doubt
that property values will be increased
and the building of new residences
encouraged, thus increasing the tax
able basis.
The paving of Madison street is an
act of justice to the residents of that
highway, as nearly every lot on both
sides of the paved portion is occupied
by residence of excellent character,
and a large sum is contributed an
nually in the way of taxes.
The paving of Second street is also
a notable Improvement, inasmuch as
it is one Of the two streets which
lead to Murray Hill, and in its former
condition made the Murray H Il street
unsightly on account of the quantities
of mud carried there by the heels Of
vehicles. The paving Of Second
street will improve the appearance Of
the whole of the Murray Hill section,
as well as encourage building on
the vacant lots along the street.
The City Engineers department
will be quite busy during the remain
der of the fall, and it is the wish Of
the city authorities to complete the
work recently ordered before cold
weather sets in. Engineer Little
will begin at once on the retarring
of Franklin street, Southgate avenue
and other streets where the tarred
macadam is in use.
Other work to be done this fall
will be the paving of First and
Hill streets and the curbing of the
balance of the western side of South
gate avenue.

WHAT GORMAN STANDS FOR
Democratic Candidate For Governor
And The Platform He Stands On
Note Sounded By
Candidate

Fairview, the home of Arthur p.
German, in Howard county, was the
scene of his official notification YES.
terday. Mr.. German made a speech
that was great surprise. The fol.
lowing are some of the sparks
| from the speech:
am Democrat and | am a poll
tician, and am not ashamed to plead
| guilty to either charge. But
while l am not ashamed to be called a
politician, have no more use for the
crooked politician or the man who
is in politics for graft or to serve
his special friends or interests. or
for the man who tries to fool the pub
lie, than l have for the hypocrite or
the liar or the thief
IF | am elected, shall appoint
Democrats to Office. But in selecting
Democrats / shall feel free to forget
any service any individual or group
of individuals may have done me or
the party and shall refuse to appoint
any man, regarless of his political
backing, who does not possess the
highest possible standards of eff
ciency."
81 shall appoint no man to any board
or office whose pledges to me and
whose standing in the community are
not guarantee that politics will not
enter into the performance of his
duties"
If there is any evidence that nv
own nomination is tainted with
fraud, do not want it, and, more
over, would not have it,"
Il assert that as a candidate Mr..
Goldsborough is Custom House pro-
duct, pure and simple"
In all of Mr.. Goldsborough's po-
litical record there is no incident or
instance that marks him as indepen-
dent in his political sponsors and
party bosses"
No man can say, or will ever be
able to say, that / broke my word or
my promise, or that | failed to keen
faith, or that l wore any mans col
lar, or that | ever failed to say where
l stood, or failed to do what | said
would do.
NO man can expect me to be un-
selfish enough to sacrifice my own
political future in order to help him
disrupt party by trying to build up
any organization or so-called ma
chine. The day of that sort of politics
is past.
Il favor the selection of delegates
to the national convention by direct
vote of the people at Statewide pri-
mary"
1.-The sanctity of the ballot is as
much the keystone of popular govern
ment as simple honesty is the key
stone of a good character. If can
not be Governor on a straight, honest
fight and with a fair, honest count,
| don't want it,
Senator German read letter, which
he sent last week to States ATTORNEY
Owens, urging him to leave no stone
unturned to ascertain the truth of the
McNulty charges.

PRICE ONE CENT.
A STAR WHISTLER
Dan Ahern, A Bird ImitatOr, Pleases
Large Crowd At The Cclo-
NAL Theatre

Again the feature acts in the vau-
deville at the Colonial Theatre last
| night struck a popular chord. No act
has been seen here for long time so
pleasing as the whistling act. one of
the three down on the Colonial bill.
although all three acts are excellent.
Dan Ahen, the bird imitator, is "A
genius. There are whistlers and
whistlers. but he eXcels. He uses no
mechanical contrivance in his mouth.
but with his tongue and teeth he is
able to initiate all kinds of birds in
the most natural manner, and to whis-
tie popular airs and rag time better
than great many orchestras can play
them. His imitation of canary
nearby, and one far away, are marvels
of sweetness in whistling. and the
robin, the Bob White and other birds
are initiated true to nature. MIR.
Ahern gave clever imitation of
catching little chicken three weeks
old. He is well worth seeing. and is
a whole show in himself.
The act featured by Rivers and Ro-
chester is refined and pleasing. the
woman is graceful and we'll groomed
and their sketch is clever. The two
Australians. j. German and f.. West.
give good act. The woman has a
fine voice and sings several beautiful
songs. The pictures at the Colonial
last night were good. One was travel
scenes in Switzerland and was most
entertaining and instructive. The
attraction tonight at the popular play
house is we'll worth seeing and is
worth several times the price of ad-
mission.

Father Brennan Says 1t Is Larger than
Halley's

Father Martin S. Brennan. S. j..
priest-astronomer, of st. Louis, Mo,
has sighted tramp comet. It's trail
may be plainly seen with opera glass
es, while the head or nucleus is visi-
BILE to the naked eye, just to the south
and west of the star Chuban, which
in nautical and lay parlance is known
as the Tail of the Dragon.
The head is much larger than that
of Halley's comet or others which
have been noticed of recent years.
It's identity and origin are unknown,
according to the astronomer, who
accredits its appearance as simply
another one of the freak form ations
of fiery nebulous matter. The comet
is easily seen after p. m. and there
after through the hours before day
light.
