SURELY A GOOD sEND.oFE

The Torrington Journal editor
doesn't believe in any halfway
measures when he starts in to say
nice things about the newly-wedded.
The following description of the
principals in a recent wedding should
entitle the Journal man to a years
subscription and a generous slice Of
the wedding cake:
1--WE have known this splendid
couple a great while. and any praise
we might voice. any tribute we
might bestow upon their worth would
be shortcoming. Heaven has crowned
the bride with all the charms and
graces of womanhood. The excell-
lencies of refinement and culture are
hers; a master of the finer arts; an
accomplished musician. A sunny
disposition that lights a new sta in
our ornament, puts a little more
heaven on earth, strengthens IL
faith in life and sends us away with
fairer hopes.
THE groom is indeed a worthy
Young man - a man of high princi-
pies. great energy. education and ac-
comp|ishment. He has a very pleas
'ng personality. and is what we
Americans are wont to call "A prince
of a fellow For him we can use
the old Romans words: His life is
noble. and the elements so mixed in
him that Nature may stand up and
say, this is a man"

W lCA:iNG INCREASES ROAD
MILEAGE BY o PER JIM

The Nat.onAl Bureau Of Public
ing as an X lple OF what may be
accomplished by an energetic and
properly dir cscd road building pol
icy. An announcement by the
Bureau says:
The last seven years have been q
period of great road development In
the State OF Wyoming. From 1914
to 1921 the total road mileage In
creased from 14,191 to 1882 miles.
This is in strong contrast to the ma
jority Of states. which have made
great progress in road improvements,
but without any change in total mile
age.
During the seven-year period the
mileage of improved roads has in
creased from 1,724 miles to 6.867
miles. The mileage Of roads is class
373; graded and drained. 6,715;
faced, 81.
AN analysis OF the figures col
lected by the Bureau shows that
there is one-half mile OF road per
square mile of area; that the total
annual road revenue is $3.50 per
square mile, $116.25 per mile of road
and s27.S2 per capita.
IN 1921 the total road revenue,
including Federal Aid funds, amount
ed to approximately ~$5,40S,O0O and
expenditures ~S4,725,OOO. During the
year, 1873 miles of improved road
were completed in the State and con-
siderable maintenance work done.
That Federal Aid e p,sying a con-
siderable part in road advancement
in this state is shown by the fact that
on August 81, four hundred and sew
enty-four miles of Federal Aid road
had been completed, 421 miles We're
either under construction or APP
proved for construction and nearly
$1,000 900 was available for new pro-
~iects."

An Immortal Picture

The picture, those who have seen it
say, tells a morality story in an immoEt-
al way. It has been released by Robert
son-Cole, the well known firm of mo-
ton picture producers and distributors,
and will be seen at the Broadway theatre
Saturday and Sunday.
Because Of the popularity Of the star,
and the beauty and appeal of the story,
the management has arranged to extend
the run of the picture longer than
the usual super-specials.
1.-THE Fortune Teller" is a powerful
story with compelling situations. 1t will
not detract from the suspense interest to
divulge that the theme-mother love
is inextricably bound up with psychic
phenomena, a subject which Sir Oliver
Lodge, the noted scientist and spiritualist,
has done SO much to popularize as a
study.
The narrative abounds with human in
terest situations rich in dramatice express
sion. 1t tells of regenration where none
seemed possible, and the influence of
mother love in the upbringing Of a child
1t tells eloquently of the triumphy OF
mother love over material things, over
science. jealousy and deviltry. 1t tells a
story which the stage with its limitations
could not tell.
A comedy and news weekly will also
be shown with this seven reel stupendoue
production.

DANIELSON

The terribly mangled body of the man
found lying beside the railroda track at
point where an attempt was made to
wreck a freight train on the New Haven
road, two and a half miles south of here,
late Wednesday night was identified
Thursday as that of Charles Jencks, 81,
who has been missing from his home in
Providence since Monday and whose rel
atives have been searching far and wide
for him, even advertising his disappear
ance in the newspapers. Relatives came
here from Providence late Thursday aft
ernoon and after viewing the body at
the undertaking rooms Of l.. E. Kenne-
dy declared that the dead man is Jencks.
Jencks it appears, formerly lived in
Danielson, but how he came to be in this
territory was a matter that had not been
cleared UP Thursday. 1t was stated here
that he has been an inmate of an institu-
ton for the insane for a considerable
period Of years and that some two or
three years ago he was discharged as no
longer in need of treatment.
Officials who have been in close touch
with the case from the outset were in
clined Thursday afternoon to the be-
lief the Jencks was solely responsible for
the attempt to wreck the train, probably
as a spectacular adjunct to committing
suicide This official conclusion had been
arrived at after a careful study of all
the facts and information that had been
gathered from investigation of the case
and a study Of all details observed at the
point where the wrecking attempt was
staged
The first clue to the dead mans iden-
tity was obtained when the torn and
bloody clothing of the man was removed
at Kennedys undertaking rooms, in the
presence Of several officials, in order that
a close examination of the body might
be made. &c. Jencks' inscribed in ink
on the neck band Of the mans undershirt
gave the first hint as to who he was This
name was again found on another gar
ment.
Amnog those who were present when
the &C. Jencks" markings were found Wa
Leonard Morrison, an automobile sales
man. In discussing the case at his
boarding place with Mr.. and Mrs. Benja-
min Clark on the West Side Thursday
morning he mentioned the name and II
Immediately suggested to members of the
household that the dead man might be
a Charles Jencks who has relatives near
the Clark home.
This information later was communicate
cd 10 officials handling the case and, Civ
on the address of the Jencks home on Pot
ter avenue in Providence they got ir

learned that he had beSn missing fol
