ONE MORE WONDERFUL ROAD
Great Highway Through the Dolonr
ties Connects Lake District of
Italy and Bavaria.

In May, 1910, the new highway
through the Dolomites, running from
Botzen to Toblach, was finally
thrown open. 1t is miracle OF able
engineering and serves as connecting
link between the Lake district OF
Italy and Bavaria.
Or, If one has large cities for ones
objective points, between Milan OF
Venice and Munich. 1t is worth try,
ing, says writer in Harper's Week
ly, to convey an impression Of the
magnificent scenery, the picturesque
and wonderful country through which
this highroad, as smooth and perfect
as Riverside Drive, since the recent
repairs, leads one.
Botzen on the south and Toblach OF
the north are the entrance gates to
the great, gaunt Dolomites. 1t was 8
burghe of Botzen, one Heinrich Kunt
er, who first obtained permission te
hew a road from the Brenner Pass tc
Botzen. He began the undertaking ir
hoped that his happy ghost rejoices
today in the perfect fulfilment of his
idea
The one disappointment to the mo
torist on this great road is that the
short cut from Botzen to Vigo di Fas
sa, leading through the lovely Eggen
Thai and past the Karer See, is CLOSED
to motors. For those who can foot II
1t is worth while to bid ease farewell
for day or so and loiter through
the wonderful valley, making the as
cent of the lonely Kare, going, up be
tween the gloomy chalk cliffs, along
steep ridges, looking far away ovel
the valley and the rolling mountains
, beyond, and so learning really tt
know and feel these gaunt ghosts OF
mountains that have earned by theii
whiteness and ready reflections the
title Mountains of Light"

"HENPECKED HENRY"

The story of the French farce
"Henpecked Henry" which is caus-
ing so much talk is by no means par
ticularly new. The same theme has
been used before by dramatists, but
the manner in which the author has
used the material and treated the
plot are absolutely original. Hen
pecked Henry" which opens four
days engagement at the Lyceum
starting with matinee next Sunday,
tells the story of one Henry Bowser,
a retired banker from Kalamazoo,
Mich, who, accompanied by his wife
and daughter are in Chicago on a
shopping tour. They take apartments
in private house at the suggestion
of Mrs. Bowser, who is long on
economy and incidently the boss of
the Bowser household. A vaudeville
star is also rooming in the same place
and Handsome Henry, as the banker
says he has always been called at
nome, is smitten by the charms of

The village council held its reg
ular session on Thursday night last
and practically closed its official ca
reer. The new council will hold its
first regular session this Thursday
night. In closing its career the old
council leaves behind it a record for
having "done something" for which
the members should receive from the
people more praise than will ever be
accorded them. They have not done
all that has been expected - such
thing would be impossible. Neither
have they performed their duties
with the degree of wisdom that would
have been shown by many of their
critics-another impossibility. But
the Journal believes they have given
their best endeavors to the public and
performed their duties with their
best knowledge and understanding of
those duties, and with a desire to
render unto the people the best pos
sible service according to the light in
which they saw those duties. With
the outgoing councilmen Mayor
Roether also steps down from the
throne of the mayoralty and the
mantle of official dignity will fall up
on other shoulders. Mayor Roethei
has been an honest, conscientious Of
fetal and is entitled to the congratu-
lations of the citizens for his pains
taking efforts to give the village his
best endeavors in the Office he has so
well filled for the past two years.
Long live the old, long live the new
officials, is the Journals best wish
TO all.

The Tariff.

The word tariff" traces itself back
to Tarifa, a Moorish name for fort
ress on a southern promontory OF
Spain, running into the Straits of Glib
raltar, and commanding the entrance
to the Mediterranean. From this Tar
ifa the Moors, during their dominion
In Spain, were wont to watch the
merchant ships of the nations as they
passed into or out of the Mediterran-
can. and, making sally therefrom,
used to levy duty on the merchandise
carried by the ships. It was from this
practice that the application of the
word came into use.

Owen Davis, will be the attraction
at the Lyceum, Toledo, the latter
half of next week, starting with the
ladies silver souvenir matinee Thurs
day. In this play Mr. Davis has
chosen for his theme one that is as
old as the world itself, yet one that
until recently has received but slight
consideration from the dramatists.
It's story of a woman's trust in a
man and the bitter price she pays; a
study of vital question in our social
problem. And aside from this SER
ionsness there is said to be delight
full vein of humor throughout the
piece. An unusually capable COM
pany of players will appear and the
production which is new and espe-
cially constructed, is promised to be
complete in every detail.
