Bavarian Distances.

IN the Bavarian highlands signposts
along the roads. instead of stating the
number of miles or kilometers to the
various villages, give the amount Of
time which the average pedestrian will
supposedly take to traverse the dis
lance. This is merely an official ex-
preston of the very general custom of
the peasants in the region, who invari-
ably tell inquirers on the roads not
how far it is to- a place, but how long
it takes to get there. Not only that,
but they make the system still more
unsatisfactory to the stranger by lit
tie additional eccentricity of their own.
For instance. one asks, How far is
1t to Oberammergau?"
ga small half hour" will be the an
swer, or perhaps "A good half hour"
or ga big half hour"
Which is puZzling until the stranger
learns that "small half hour" means
twenty-five minutes, "a good half
hour" thirty minutes. ga big half hour
thirty-five minutes, "a small three
quarters of an hour forty minutes.
and so on.

military organizations, and the civilian
bodies wound up the procession. For
several days the paraders had been
pouring into town by thousands The
parade is declared to be by all odds
the biggest that ever marched up Penn
sylvania avenue.
Two Attractions at Night.
The night held two attractions for
the visiting thousands. The first was
the grand display of fireworks back
of the White House; the other was the
ball. The crowd saw displayed in the
air in lines of fire the features of the
incoming and outgoing presidents,
battle between aerial war ships, floral
displays and other exhibitions of the
pyrotCchnic art.
The eliminating feature of the in
augural ceremonies was the ball in the
pension Office. President Taft and Mrs.
Taft, Vice President Sherman and Mrs.
Sherman and every one else attended
the ball, and the presidents reception
was one of the leading features. He
was on public inspection, for the ball
was open to all who had been able to
pay S. apiece for tickets. The recep-
ton committee, composed of promiS
nent citizens, Of all states, presented
to Mr. and Mrs. Taft the visitors from
their respective states. The ball lasted
until midnight
Tribute to Fairbanks.
Behind close(- doors the senate paid
to Vice President Fairbanks one of the
most remarkable tributes ever given to
a presiding officer. He was presented
with magnificent silver service, cost
ing $1,185, as the gift of the entire
body of senators and with loving cup
as the present Of the Democratic mem
bers.
The last official act of President
Roosevelt was the signing of proclama-
lions creating additions to thirteen
national forests in Nevada, California,
New Mexico and Arizona, aggregating
4,980,736 acres, bringing the total ma
tional forestry acreage up to 195,013,-
$50 acres.
AS a testimonial to the services of
Senator Elect Burton of Ohio, as chair
man of the house committee on rivers
and harbOrs, its members presented
him with a gold watch.
