MARRIAGE EVERY 15 MINUTES IN MARYLAND TOWN
385 Licenses Issued During January-4,336 In
 Year

E1kton, Md, Feb. 11-EHkton Is undergoing a. matrimonial boom. The marriage Hiu is working overtime in Cecil county seat nowadays. Thirty two weddings in eight working hours, or one every fifteen minutes, is a recently established record in Maryland's well-known Gretna Green.
 During January 3S5 licenses were issued: nearly fifteen marriages each day, not counting Sundays, when the Circuit Court is supposed to be at rest. For 1919 the register shows 4,SS6 permits to wed against 4,S00 for the preceding year. These hurry up ceremonies bring $1 to the court, an average of $3 to the businesslike clergyman, who ties the knot, and the same sum to the jitney men.
 The main morning train is the 11:41 which comes from Broad street, Philadelphia, and is known as the honeymoon exp1es No sooner do the couples step from the cars than the traffic in couples be- gins from behind the station. where a dozen or more autom obiles drawn up side by side, a din such as one l seldom hears, shouts and yells from rival and ather-1unged busmen. ] Nothing was overlooked that might 1 attract attention and patronage. l Drivers, white and black, l scramble for patronage until the un- l happy couples know not where tc 1 turn. Chauffeurs argue among 1 themselves for customers; sums o1 money are banded here and there. Here you are; here you are!' cried one, waving his arms like ar
 
 way, my dears Try me, the mos l experienced driver in the town" add. | ed to the noise.
 By the time the honeymoon ex l press started South again the hack men and their cars had disappeared in the direction of the court house where licenses are obtained.

NEGRO ROBBERS
 HOLD UP BAILEY
LaWless African Steals Farm CTS Money at Point of
 Pistol Yesterday

Highwaymen are continuing their ac- tivities in and around Birmingham. R, w. Bailey a farmer who lives near New Merkle. was the victim yesterday. He was held up and robbed of $6 about noon by a negro highwaymaR on the Twenty seventh street road.
 Fred McDuff, chief deputy, and Depu- ties R. E. smith, " Sandefer. Sam Ar nett and Elgin Morris responded to the call and secured the woods in the vi cinity of the hold-up, but no trace of the man was found.
 According to Mir. Bailey he was rid- ing along in his wagon and was very near the top of Red mountain when he heard a noise. and raising his eyes, he looked into the barrel of A calibre pistol. The negro ordered him to hand over his money. which he did The ne- gro then asked if that was all the money he had, and being assured that it was, the highwayman told him to go on his way. The negro then made his escape, going toward town, but officers are of the opinion he caught car Tn the vicinity of the hold-up, as pract1- cally every one of the daylight highway robberies have been committed in close proximity to the car lines.
