Gayety.

Dave Marion. famous i'll burlesque as
Snuffy the Cabman, with his own
company in a two-act musical bur-
lesque entitled Stageland," drew ca
pacity audiences at the Gayety Theater
yesterday. This was due first, per-
haps, to the fact that the attraction is
easily one of the best of the year at
the Gayety, and, secondly, to the fact
that this is to be Marion's last year
on the stage. OF this type he is inimit-
able as a comedian, and laughter was
never lacking when he was on the
stage. Merry assistance is given him
in the funmaking line by viii Mossey,
Chick Hunter and Tom O'Dell, while
the feminine contingent. headed by
Agnes Behler, Anna Armstrong and
Maude Clifton. with a typical chorus,
adds materially to the attractiveness
of the show. The Symphony Four. an
excellent male quartet, with Emilia
Bertholetti, the "Sculptor's Models
+. and Marion's monologue, are notable
features.

PRESIDENT HAS TALK"
WITH SAN FRANCISCO
Congratulates Management Upon the
Opening of Transcontinental
Telephone Service.

President Wilson late yesterday gave
recognition to the first transconti-
mental telephone service by talking d.
rectly to San Francisco, President
Moore of the Panama Pacific EXPOSE
ton being on the other end of the line
At different cities along the line, how
ever, the conversation was overheard
wi deep interest. The President also
talked with DIR. Alexander Graham
Bell. in New York, President Vail, of
the American Telegraph and Telephone
Company, at Jekyll island. and with
Thomas A. Watson. in San Francisco.
These prominent officials of the tele-
phone company were listening on the
line to the San Francisco conversation,
and the President afterward addressed
them.
Congratulations and Greetings.
He complimented Mr. Moore on the
early opening of the transcontinental
line and on the fine prospects for the
exposition, which he said he was hope
full of seeing when Congress adjourns.
He conveyed greetings to the manage
ment, the conversat ton being distinct
at both ends.
Mr.. Watson was the electrician of
DR.. Bell at the time of the invention of
the telephone, and he was deeply con-
cerned about the success of the talk.
The President complimented him on his
services in developing the telephone
and then turned to DIR. Bell. in New
York. congratulating the great invent
or on the notable consummation of his
labors and achievements
1t was 4 o'clock when DR.. Bell sent
his Alloy" across the continent, and
one of the first of the guests to speak
after him asked the time in San Fran
cisco. Every one looked at his watch
as the answer came back: Il o'clock
This started a furry of figuring.
Those who know sound waves and the
rate they travel said that it would take
four hours for mans voice, unaided,
granting the possibility of such titanic
lungs. to travel to San Francisco
through the air. On the wires it takes
less than one-fifteenth of a second.
Electricity was driving DR.. Bells
"ahoy" at the rate of $4,000 miles a
second. Sound, uDabetted, limps along
in comparison, making only 1,160 feet
second.
Up to now the longest telephone line
in the world was between New York
and Denver. but this line is 1900 miles
better. and again this country has the
longest line in the world.
The transcontinental service is eX-
pected to be opened for public use
about March 1. 1t will cost 5000 for
person in New York to talk three
minutes to San Francisco, or vice versa.
