Plan For a Lincoln
Memorial Road.

As q suggestion, the following plan
for" The Lincoln Road" Is submitted
Down the middle Of the road let
there be a greensward forty or fifty
feet wide, a well.kept lawn looking
like beautiful green carpet OF velvet.
To lend variety to this central line OF
beauty, here and there flower gardens
and other decorative features could
introduced. At intervals could be
erected fountains and other monu.
mental bellishments that might be
appropriate.
On each side OF this central line Of
beauty let there be q smooth ROADWAY
forty or fifty feet wide, constructed
according to abe highest engineering
standard Of good" One Of these
roadways may be reserved for swift.
moving vehicles like automobiles, and
the other for slow.moving vehicles
like carriages and wagons.
Outside Of these driveways could be
double. tracked electric railways,
occupying a width Of twenty feet each
and separated from the driveways by
hedges. One OF these railways could
be for express trains Of high speed
and stopping only at intervals Of ten
or fifteen miles; the other could be for
local trains moving slowly and stopp.
Ing at short intervals.
Bordering THE Lincoln Road" on
each side there should be q row or
rows of stately trees, the rows broken
at points where could be obtained fine
views Of mountain or valley or river.
In order that 1.-THE Lincoln Way"
may be built with certainty and with.
out delay, 1t should be constructed
under the direction Of national com.
mission and should be paid for out
OF the national Treasury. But full
opportunity should then be given TO
the individual States to express their
regard for Lincoln. To each State In
the Union may be allotted q portion
OF 1.-THE Lincoln Way" to be embel.
lished In accordance with its taste and
means, subject to the approval Of the
national commission. Other spaces
could be allotted for embe llishment to
the national patriotic societies. Op-
p0rtunity should be afforded to sue
ceeding generations to add something
to beauty Of 1.-The Lincoln Way" So
long as patriotism glows 10 the hearts
Of the American people, 1t will be for
them labor Of love to add from time
to time to this expression OF national
affection, keeping 1.-THE Lincoln Way"
at the forefront as the best and most
attractive highway 10 the entire world.
Having 10 mind the possibilities OF
electrical illumination, the beauty OF
this boulevard when lit up at night
may be left to the Imagination.

AFTER COMMISSIONER REPORTERS ON SCENT
FsriDers Being Overlooked in
 Repairing Sisie Roads.

Property owners on the Scott road md other highways of Waterbury would like to meet State Highway Commissioner Macdonald and inquire of him the reason why so much money is being spent in some places and none at all in others. Who is this man Macdonald, anyway" asked resident of the east end to-day. Somebody going about the stae in proving the roads for the accommodate tion, of people who own automobiles. How about the man with the hoe, or in other words the farmer with his team of horses and yoke of cattle? Has he no rights which MT Macdon- aid is obliged to respect? It seems so, for while roads on which there is very little traffic except by automo- piles and such like are kept in ex- cellent condition the highway of the farming districts are in many in- stances impassible." The reporter agreed with the gentleman from the rural district, but reminded him that MT Macdonald gets his authority from Hartford and advised him to make a try for representative this year and if he lands then he will be in position to. ask few questions about state road funds.

When Officers SIsTied OHi Aiier
 Hold.up Men.

The usual bunch was hanging around the city court room to walt for the never failing after clap be- tween accused and accusers when word went round that the cops were up to something. Superintendent Beach yelled to Captain Bannon that he was going out for minutes" and Detective Dodds doffed his smoking cap and donned his straw hat. Officer Neagle had glided out the side door and another cop whose back could only be seen sneaked off by the front entrance, others follow ing. There was surely something doing and the court reporters hus- tied after the cops. The trail was hot. It took them down South Main street.
 "Ah! Brook street." exclaimed one scribe.
 Another big raid, though rather early in the day for one" said an other.
 Sure thing said the third, as the cops were seen to slow up about half way between Exchange place and Scovill street.
 The scribes ran across the street and hid in doorway and watched the cops with the superintendent walk slowly on. AtsScovill street they stood and Alderman Spain greeted them. Dodds, appearing as nonchalant as he was able to, saun- tered across the street and got a chew from a man in exchange for which he gave the man a match. Up Scovill street he walked as though there was nothing on his active mind. Up near the engine house he went into saloon, came out in a moment and went into some other place and out again the next mo- ment. It was quite evident now that a raid was not in the air for all but the cops, Beach and Dodds had dis appeared.
 From Doddss action it was plain he had lost the scent and the re. porters finding valuable time fieetine fast came out of their concealment and asked the superintendent what was up.
 Nothing only there are a few fellows here holding up people for money" he said and the scribes hik- ed of to their desks, disappointed.

THOSE GOOD OLD DAYS
When Fairs Were Fairs, Not Com
 bination Book Marts.

A prominent man of this town, who is accustomed to attend fairs, carnivals and similar entertain ments, sat smoking in place where he often spends an evening. He was thinking of the olden days when fairs depended more on the number of people that paid admission rather than the amount of combination books that was sold. He remem- bered the good old days when there were all kinds of fun at these fairs and sighed for an old fashioned night of amusement once again. He re- marked that the present day fairs were devoting too much attention to their prizes and making very little provision for the amusement of the people. that attended the event. After while he fell into sleep and his mind was so set upon fairs that he dreamed about them.
 He imagined that he was in a hall, not a canvasser in sight. The only thing in the form of prize was a trip through Europe. On all sides of him were handsome booths, de- picting many beautiful scenes. A stage entertainment like those that delighted the crowds in days gone by was being given. The hall was filled with a jolly. good netured crowd, everybody apparently enjoying him self. The entertainment is now over and dancing starts once more. The floor seems to be better than ever before. while the music Is such that a person simply can't keep his feet still Several young men are nov ing through the crowd: they seem to be looking out for the pleasure of others. In fact. he thought him. self In a hall where a carnival like those he attended when be was a boy vas being held.
 IL was only a dream. but his dream Is coming true. For next month at City hall. from Saturday. September 1s. to Saturday. September 21. St Joseph's T. A. society Is to give just such a carnival. It should certainly be one big success.
