BREGEN IS in CUSTODY.
Man Who Escaped from Burgess
Weiss by Jumping Through
Window Recaptured.

Joseph BYegen, who was arrested in
Fayette county Wednesday, by Burgess
Weiss. of Priceburg, and who escaped
from him by jumping through the car
window at Johnstown, Is wanted here
on the charges Of assault and battery.
Two years ago he committed the Of
fense upon the person of Thomas Nun
lay. When held in Jail Burgess Weiss
qualified as his bondsman. When the
case was called for trial Bregen did
not appear and the bail was forfeited.
Weiss heard, a few weeks ago, that
his man was in the western part of the
state, Armed with a capias he re-
turned in search of him, locating him
in Fayette county.
Bregen accompanied the burgess
quietly. He was not handcuffed to
his seat in the passenger coach, and
sat next to the window. Weiss was
beside him. After riding some dis
tance the officer went to sleep, and
when the train pulled into Johnstown
he was hard at it, When the train
started and was getting on a lively
speed the prisoner jumped up and
very unceremoniously went through
the window. Weiss slept on and was
many miles fronm his man when a
passenger awakened him.
lie called the conductor who was
willing to stop the train, but Weiss
was averse to getting off in a strange
country at 10 o'clock at night. A mes
sage was sent back from the next sta
tion, and two hours later Bregen was
arrested at Conemaugh. Weiss will go
after his man today.

The way women trife with health
shows a degree of indifference that is
misunderstanding. Happiness anduse-
fulness depend on physical health; so

women nervous, irritable and snap

TELEPHONE COMPANY
INFLUENCE FOR BURNS

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO. Jan. 4. - The Pacific Bell Tele-
phone Company is the latest corporation
to come out in the open in it's support of
Dan Burns for Senator. and to-day it was
current report that Major Frank Nc
Laughlin, Jake Steppacher and Jake
Shean were welding the influence of that
monopoly in Burns behalf, in return for
which they are to undertake to prevent
any legislation tending to abrogate the
telephone company's privileges.
Only last Sunday The Call found it
necessary to expose the telephone COM
pany's gross betrayal of its patrons by
making public the messages passing over
its wires and its improper system of re-
ducing to writing every conversation held
by the telephone and saving these mes
sages for whatever purpose it might see
fit to employ them.
The Pacific Bell Company feared, not
without just cause, that the Legislature
would enact such laws as would insure
the privacy of messages and protect its
patrons from annoyance and possible
bIackmail. Such legislation must be pre-
vented at all hazards, and so arrange
ments were perfected with Burns accord
ing to the terms of which he was to be
given the company's support in his Sena
torial canvass and he in turn or his
agents. were to choke off any bills that
might be introduced for the regulating

CALL HEADQUARTERS. SACRA-
MENTO. Jan. 4l-One of the old-time
politicians of California is eX-COngress-
man W. W. Bowers of San Diego. Down
in the Seventh Congressional District,
which he for six years represented in the
halls of the National Legislature. the
men and women refer to him as Uncle
Billy Bowers.
There is one quality Uncle Billy has. He
is very plain spoken. He has partici-
pated in a number of Senatorial fights in
California in times gone by, for he has on
several occasions, going as far back as
1876 been a member both of the Senate
and of the Assembly. Since Monday the
x-Congressman has been here watching
the Senatorial fight and as a loyal San
Diegan Going what he can to assist in
booming Mr.. Grant Asked to; give his
views on the situation as he looked upon
it tonight. Uncle Billy in characteristic
language said:
''WelI. now, I'll tell you. There is no
man got this fight won now. It's the fun
niest thing | ever saw. There are factors
at work in this bout that | never saw be-
fore in any Senatorial fight. The one
thing that complexities more than any
thing else is the patronage of the State
That's what mixes the
thing up so that men don't know where
they stand. | want to tell you that If you
will take the patronage of the State ad-
ministration out of this battle L. S. Grant
will get the caucus nomination beyond
the question of q doubt"
