MAKES CHECKS GOOD; FREED
Former Minneapolis "SociaI Lion" Is
Released From Denver Jail
Father Sends Money.

Denver, Col, Jan. 30.-With money
enough in sight to defray his indebted
ness and thereby obtain his release
from the city Jail, where he spent two
sleepless nights, C. Andrew Jensen, Jr.,
he of the 80 suits and silk pajamas.
announced that he probably would bid
Denver good-by as soon as he could
make the necessary arrangements.
Jensen was taken to the district at
torney's Office at noon by Detective
George Sanders and his attorney, Will
liam Scofield, who asked that no in
formations be filed against him, as he
had made restitution to the business
houses on which he had passed worth
less checks District Attorney Rush
gave Jensen lecture, telling him that
he was fool and a sucker" to spend
his money on other persons, as he has
been doing, and that he had made
himself the laughing stock of the city.
He then told Sanders to release him.
The worthless checks Jensen passed
at the Denver Athletic club, the Brown
Palace hotel, and the Knight Campbell
Music company and the st. James
Taxicab company were all made good.
The money arrived by telegraph,
$3.50 from his father, president of the
Tobacco Exchange bank, at Edgerton,
Wis, and $500 from his uncle, A. L.
Fulton, said TO be prominent in New
York financial circles.

Heroic Savers of Life.

If one could behold the scope of the
work Of the life-savers in a single
glance he could see that these 1000
men meet at thousand stations on
dark and lonely shores and exchange
brass checks and bring these brass
checks with them on their return to
their life stations as evidence that
they had patrolled the coast. Never
has one of these faithful servants
failed to come back promptly with the
check of the patrol, unless he was
halted by a case of distress, and even
then his fellow patrol comes on to
meet him. Scores of men give their
lives to the devouring sea to save life
and millions of property. There are
now 290 stations on the sea and lake
coasts Of the United States. There are
men in the service that have saved
as many as 300 lives and literally ev-
cry man in the service has been an
actor in one or more of its 10000 hero
stories. In 1912 rescue service was
rendered to 1,671 vessels, carrying g.
800 passengers, the total value of these
vessels and their cargoes being $11,-
000. 100000.

TELEPHONE TRIUMPH
COMPLETE CIRCUIT FROM NEW
YORK TO SAN FRANCISCO.
FIRST MESSAGE BY INVENTOR
Line Officially Opened Jan. rs, 1915
3,40O Miles in Length. Trans
mission Clear and Distinct.

New York.-From the fifteenth
floor of New York skyscraper, in the
office of Theodore N. Vail, president
of the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company, Alexander Graham
Bell Monday afternoon telephoned to
Thomas A. Watson in San Francisco,
sending the first message ever tele-
phoned across the continent.
Although engineers and scientists
have worked for nearly forty years
perfecting transmitters, receivers,
lines, cables, switchboards and various
telephone apparatus that all COM
bined made transcontinental tele-
phoning possible, John J. Carly, chief
engineer of the Bell Telephone Sys-
TEN, insisted that the inventor of the
telephone should have the honor OF
sending the first ocean to ocean mes
sage and thus it was that DR.. Bell and
Mr.. Watson were. at either end Of the
line Monday afternoon.
In little workshop in Boston, June
2, 1875, it was Alexander Graham Bell
who spoke and Thomas A. Watson
who heard the first message ever sent
by telephone. "Come here Watson,
want you," were the first words ever
conveyed over wire. That wire was
only sixty feet in length. The line
used Monday is 3,400 miles long.
A bit of sentiment that entered into
the celebration of the opening Of the
transcontinental line was that the
sixty feet of wire used in the first

MAY PASS MEASURE OVER VETO
HOUSE TO CONSIDER IMMIGRA-
TON QUESTION AGAIN.
President Wilson Gives Llteracy Test
as Reason for Refusal to
Sign the Bill.

washington, Jan. 30.-President Will
son vetoed the immigration bill be-
cause OF the literacy test for admis-
sion OF aliens. His message was re-
ceived in the house and referred to the
immigration committee, whose chair
man, Representative Burnett, will
move next Thursday that the measure
be passed over the executive veto.
Three times has an immigration bill
containing restrictive literacy test
been vetoed, first by President Cleve-
land, next by President Taft and now
by President Wilson. Twice congress
failed to override the presidential dis
approval and house managers were in
slstent that the veto should not be
considered until there had been time
for reflection.
The president in his message frank
ly told the house, which originated the
Dill, that he had no pride of opinion
on the question and was not foolish
enough to profess to know the wishes
and ideals of America better than the
body of her chosen representatives

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made UP Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
Iustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray: also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome, Nowadays,
by asking at any store for 'Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get a large bottle Of the famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does 1t so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time, by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy

TALK ON WESTERN
CANADA
Facts Don't Lie-Western Can
ada Is Full of Facts-Here
Are Three of Them.

l.. c. T. Moore, Underhi1l, Man.
Came from Bruce County, Ontario,
1882, with capital of $500. Home
steaded quarter section. Now owns
$500 acres for which he paid average
OF $40. 00-worth today $1,000 per acre.
2. James Steel, Battleford, Sas-
katchewan. Came from Perthshire,
Scotland. 1904. His fare advanced to
bring himself and family to Canada.
Took up homestead, which he sold
later $500 per acre, buying 1000
acres at $500 per acre. Has been
very successful in mixed farming.
Values land now at $4,000 per acre.
and is worth $4,000. "If l had re-
manned in the Old Country my gray
hairs would have been a passport to
the poor house." he says.
8. H. j. Smith, Glover Bar, Alberta.
Came from North Michigan, 1893,
without capital. Now farming 800
acres, valued at 5000 per acre. Pur-
chased originally at $500 per acre.
Engaged in mixed farming. Cows
average him $4,000 a year.
All this talk about the exploitation
Of labor by capital, class distinction,
living wage, high cost OF living, and
so forth, doesn't hold the slightest
interest for the Canadian farmer.
Why? Because he has proved that
you can't begin too poor to become
rich In Canada; that free homesteads
preclude the possibility OF being
robbed of freedom and independence;
that the high cost of living can't hurt
the man who grows most of his own
necessities; that his labor brings re-
ward in exact and just proportion to
time and intelligence invested.
sIf those who whine at urban condi-
tons would give little time to in
vestigating those suburban, they
would likely spy clear way out Of
their difficulties. For the first step,
drop card to any Canadian Govern
ment Agent advertisement.

talk in Boston was spliced into the
York and thirty feet at San Francisco.
Ever since the telephone was dis
covered, America, the land of its
birth, has kept the lead, using more
telephones than all the rest OF the
world. More than twenty-one million
miles of wire in this country now
unite nine million telephones in 10000
cities, towns and villages. All the rest
of the world has less than five million
telephones.
In 1876 the longest telephone line in
the world was from Boston to Cam
bridge, two miles; in 1884 1t was ex-
tended to New York, 235 miles. Chi
cago and New York were connected in
1895, and in 1911 New York could say
Hello" to Denver.
In the forty years since the tele-
phone was invented nearly hundred
types of transmitters, and numerous
repeating instruments, and other de-
vices have been used and discarded
for something better, but 1t is asserted
that no single new discovery has been
responsible for this latest and great
est achievement in the telephone art.
In the two circuits of the transcon-
tinental line there are approximately
six million pounds Of copper wire, or
about two hundred carloads. This
wire is stretched on 10000 poles,
which If they were loaded on railroad
cars would make twenty trains Of
thirty cars each.
The route of the transcontinental
telephone line is from New York to
Pittsburgh, thence to Chicago, Daven-
port, Des Moines, Omaha, Lincoln, !
Denver, Salt Lake City and to San
Francisco.
1t is understood that the rate will |
be about $21 90 for three-minute talk !
from New York to San Francisco.
Stationed along this great stretch |
OF telephone line the day it was open |
ed were repairmen every few miles, |
in the big centers, in the little towns, /
on the prairies, in the mountains, and
out on the desert, ready to splice the
wires in case they were torn down by
sleet or wind, to solder break or re-
place an insulator broken by a storm
Or mischievous boy. Like soldiers
IN picket duty, these repairmen will
be kept on constant vigil night and

t is advertised that this line is soon

Itant use.

bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and

Cecil Spooner In My Arizona GirP'
 Scores At Lyric

Cecil Spooner has brought another success to town in My Arizona, GirI' which she played before large audi ences at the special matinee and the evening performances yesterday. My Arizona GirI''t is the same tyne of play as 'The Fortunes of Betty" in which the talented young woman who not only has her own stock companv put writes her own plays as well, made such a decided hit in this city. The<p1ay abounds with eccentric char acters who furnish plenty of laugh ter and there are a number of thrills Polly the Arizona Girl,'' is decidedly wholesome and capable, she has an invalid sister whom she is trying to support. Through the play, there is of course, the inevitable love story which finds it's happy ending.
 The story opens in 9 theatrical boarding house in New York and the three following acts are in Arizona where Polly, disgusted with trying, to make her way in New York has es- tablished a restaurant. The s.s1lffra- gettes" who are trying to vote and their husbands who will not let them to the polls form much of the fun for the western acts. Of course there is the villain, this time Foreman D of course he is finally worsted before the curtain rolls down for the last time. The four acts of the comedy are we'll staged.
 Miss Spooner plays the part of Pol ly with the same enthusiasm and wholesomeness which characterized her two former roles in this city. Mar garet AIisbury is innocent and sweet as her invalid sister, Nellie, while Gnberta Faust as Violet. Foster. the boarding house keeper, and later queen of the burlesque is especially worthy of praise. Rita, VilIers has two comedy parts, that of Betty Mo

'EIGHT HOUR' GIRLS OF BRIDGEPORT
 GREATEST ATTRACTION IN BIG PARADE

The motto ''Patronize Our Label, ' called attention to the local brewers, who wore dark suits and brown hats.
 It seemed that the best was reserv- ed for the last. The Mephisto Bit was created into a float effect by the PoIishers and Buffers local 73 of WaIIfngford. The bits were embod- jed in the form of devils. conveying the information that the label was Mephisto.
 Another award taken towards the last of the parade was the delegation from the Danbury Hatters. A ban ner announced the fact that. the Standard Oil company had been fined SIPS, ,OOO,0 900, yet none of the amount had been collected, while the matters had been fined $250, 900 and every cent had been collected The Dan bury Hatters, without a. home, as the announcenlent said, looked very good to be homeless and suncared for-s1By having the greatest number in line from the most distant point they re- eeived first award.
 FAbout an hour and thirty minutes after the parade started the first rnarchers arrived at the green, where they were dismissed. It is estimated that at least 10000 people participat- ed in the great pageant, and it is safe to say that 50sooo% more viewed the procession.
