BANGOR JACK DY-
ING IN DENVER

From II subscriber in Denver, Col
orado. the News has received this
note. dated March IS:
The enclosed clipping, taken from
the Denver Post this evening, ! am
sending YOU in hope that you will
copy it, as no doubt MIR, Donovan
has old friends or relatives in Bangor
who would be glad to help the old
man in his last days. l have never

help him SO far as ] am able:
Bangor Jack" Dying
Following is the clipping from the
Denver Post:
John j. Donovan, veteran politician
Of Denver, known to pioneers as
Bangor Jack, is reported dying in
a dingy, poorly ventilated cellar room
under the old University of Denver
Conservatory Of Music building at
Fourteenth and Arapahoe streets
Donovan is so years old and has been
character" In this city for three
decades.
His many trips to Ireland, his
birthplace, up until eight years ago,
have been the source Of many anus
ing anecdotes about Bangor Jack"
1t Is said that he took more journeys
abroad without paying cent of his
fare from his own funds than. any
other man in America. Whenever
he arrived In Ireland he met and
talked with prominent patriots. pol
iticians and statesmen and Dublin
newspapers always gave him space"
for an elaborate interview on polil
tics.
"BangM' Jack" missed very few
democratic conventions in his day
and was usually appointed an usher
at the national gatherings. This
honor vas always accepted with
much pride by Donovan. He called
himself the button king of America,
Ireland and England" At Demo-
cratic conventions he wore a tunic
covered with thousands Of buttons
from va 'ious political campaigns.
Bangor Jack" received his name
from the fact that he sold papers in
Bangor, Maine. in 1851. He was still
selling them when Abraham Lincoln
was assassinated, April IA, 1865. All
but deserted by his old friends, Jack
is said 10 be dying from old age and
neglect il a basement room under a
sidewalk, where no fresh air can be
had and where his meals are frugal
and irregular.

Vaudeville

Perhaps no form of amusement
supplies so much variety and talent
as vaudeville. One may witness a
simple novelty and on the same pro-
gram hear a grand opera singer. AS
one of the oldest vaudeville managers
once remarked, You may have rag
time, or Grand Opera, with perhaps
a sensational novelty sandwiched in.
Then the movies came along. This
added even greater interest to the
field as some elegant features have
been produced in photoplay.
Manager Greeley of the Opera
House states that he has something
good to offer for his opening week
of vaudeville besides two OF the big

will be a number Of excellent acts

that from 1871 to fsl4 Germany was
at peace with the world; and that.
therefore, she cannot be by nature so
very fond Of fighting.
For four years, from' 1903 to 1907.
the Huns in German Southwest Africa
waged war of determination against
the Herreros, In the course of which
some 900. 200 natives and over 5000. Ger
mans lost their lives.
1t was the seizure of Kiao-chau3a
warlike act of aggression against a
friendly power-which led up to the
anti-foreign outbreak OF the Chinese
Boxers three years later. In the war
for their suppression German troops
played a leading pat; and In obedi-

no prisoners they were the only ones
among the allies who consistently re-

NEW PROTECTION FOR
SOLDIERS EYE AND FACE

A new chain visor helmet attachment
to protect the soldiers eyes Is being
tried by the British In France. The
visor is the invention Of Captain II. r.
Cruise. an ophthalmic surgeon with Gem
eral Haigs forces. Around the front of
the regular steel helmet Doctor Cruise
has placed a slender rod. to which is at
tached a strip Of steel chain mail, about
three inches deep.
This slides on the rod as easily as a
curtain. and 1t can be drawn like veil,
fairly close. by an ingenious contrivance
and fastening. The eyes of the wearer
are thus protected against any flying
fragment Of shell, or-what is almost
equally dangerous-any stone or piece
