PRESIDENT WILSON
SPEAKS 3,4OO NILES
OVER THE TELEPHONE
MARKS EPoCHAL EVENT IN
THE TELEPHONE HISTORY
OF THIS NATION.
TALKS FROM COAST TO COAST
Or. Alexander Graham Bell, inventor
of Telephone, Says That Converse
ton of President With San Francis
CO a Great Event in History.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-The com
pletion of the long distance telephone
line between New York and San
Francisco was celebrated today. First
this city had speech with her neigh
Dor in California, 3,400 miles away.
Then the wires that swing south
ward from New York brought Wash
ington and San Francisco into tele.
phonic touch. On down the coast to
i little Jekyl Island, opposite Georgia,
they carried the Golden Gates greet
ing. To the north, Boston, the birth
place of the telephone, talked across
the continent.
At the White House, President VIII.
SON spoke into the mouth of the tele-
phone and his voice was hurled
across thirteen states to the shores
of the Pacific.
When Morse from a room in the
capital of the nation telegraphed to
Baltimore, his historic message,
i"What God hath wrought" the world
realized that great genius had been
born. That line of wire now encir-
cles the globe. Today, however,
there was almost as great an epochal
event as was that other event in the
early fifties, a continued converse
ton held between the President OF
the United States from the White
House with President Moore, Of the
Panama Pacific exposition in San
Francisco.
President Wilson stepped to the
telephone at 5:45, and placing the re-
ceiver to his ear, said in very
clear and impressive manner to Mr..
Moore of the Panama Pacific exposi
ton: 1T appeals to the imagination
| to speak across the continent. 1t is
Ia fine omen for the exposition that
1.-THE first thing that 1t has done is to

fdently hoping to take part in 1t after
the adjournment Of congress. May
not send my greetings to the man
1agement and to all whose work has
made it possible and has made it the
great event it promises to be, and tc
convey my personal congratulations
to you clear as bell" Came back
President Moore's reply: I'VE are
looking forward to your coming here
| think you will be well pleased with
what we have done. ] assure you
Mr.. President, that you will never re
ceive a welcome that will be more
cordial and more enthusiastic"
President Wilson then talked to
Mr.. Thomas A. Watson in San Fran,
cisco, with DR.. Alexander Graham
Bell listening on the line at New
York President Wilson said: 81
consider it an honor to be able to ex-
press my admiration for the inven.
tive genius and scientific knowledge
that has made this possible, and it is
| my pride that this vital cord should
have been stretched across America
as a new symbol Of our unity and
our enterprise. Will you not convey
my cordial congratulations to Mr..
Bell?"

SAGE TEA TURNS

color, Iustre and thickness to hair
when faded, streaked or gray.

That beautiful, even shade of dark.
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
3 mixture OF Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When It fades, turns
gray, streaked and looks dry, Wispy
and scraggy. just an application or two
of Sage and Sulphur enhanches its
appearance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic;
you can get from any drug store a
50-cent bottle Of ''Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" ready to use
This can always be depended upon to
bring back the natural color, thickness
and lustre OF your hair and remove
dandruff. stop scalp itching and fall
ing hair.
Everybody uses ''wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur because IL darkens so natural
ly and evenly that nobody can tell 1t
has been applied. You simply dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through the hair, taking one
small strand at time: by morning
the gray hair has disappeared, and az
ter another application It becomes
beautifully dark and appears glossy
lustrous and abundant. (Adv.)

Good blood is everything to every

ON DEATH OF COL.
FRANK l.. MAYES
ceIorsd Editors Tribute.

One Of the best white men that ever
lived in Pensacola has gone to his
maker
The entire city was startled by the
news In Monday mornings paper OF the
death OF Col. Frank L. Mayes. editor
ana guiding spirit of West Florfda's
leading daily paper.
The writer had known this distin-
suished Pensacola citizen since the
first day he arrived in this city. nearly
twenty years ago, then q young man.
having barely reached his majority.
His first employment was with the
late ex-mayor Chas III. Bliss. who
published the Weekly Wave In the
same building in which the writer was
then employed as printer on another
paper. An idealist he was then. filled
with ambition and big Intentions: an
ideaiist he was at the time of his death
having lived to bring to pass the big
gest of his intentions and also to dem
onstrate that man can live up to a
high mark set up In his youth, not
departing therefrom, and still reach
mature manhood. with honors and en-
oluments. tailying his friends by his
acquaintances.
Mr.. MayeS was true TO MS locals
he lived up 70 them and died In them
He was true to the traditions Of his
race; believing that the white man
should rule, but could rule without in
justice and oppression toward the
weaker races. He was true. though
positive to his friends and to his en-
pioyes. and they all loved him. from
his immediate associates down to the
humblest black carrier boy. His gem
crosby was known only to those bene-
fitted thereby. The writer recalls one
instance very personal to him. After
the big hurricane of 1906 our name
appeared IN the HIST OF unfortunates
who had lost their all in the storm.
The Sunday morning after the disaster
our mall contained an envelope In
which was q substantial banknote,
folded In one OF Col. Mayes' letter heads
The colored man for whom we were
working at the time docked US for the
day lost in trying to save some Of our
personal effects which he had q per-
feet right to do: we only state the facts
here for the purpose or comparison.
Pensacola will sorely miss this lead
ing spirit. II ever Col. Mayes was
needed here 1t is now: but God knows
best and we can only bow to submis
sion and hope that the paper he worked
SO hard to build up will live long and
always retain the spirit Of It's late
editor-Pensacola Colored Citizen"
