State Brings
 Dagover Here
European Sensation Is "The Woman From
 Monte Carlo"

Lil Dagover, the lovely lady from overseas who is so unlike all the other lovely ladies who come to us from overseas = came to-day to Warner Bros State thea ter-was seen by local drama en- thusiasts-and without exception, conquered them--not alone by her exceptional acting, but by that uni- versal language which has nothing whatever to do with time, place or nationality. She is starred in '"rhe Woman from Monte Carlo"
 Lil Dagover is creature of ever-changing lights and shadows. Slight, rather small, willowy. with unfathomable dark eyes--she is, by turns. wistful, gay, tantalizing, tragic, childlike. The continental charmer, the siren, may be the part she plays--brt one is always aware of the real woman who understands people and likes them.
 Miss Dagover makes of the role of Lottie CorlaiX, butterfly wife of the stern captain, a person to be pitied even when blamed --- a character of many moods, but all 50 adorably feminine and of such potential. fineness, that her final renunciation for the sake of the man she has wronged, seems in- eHtable. No more satisfying part could have been chosen by the producers to introduce the superb artistry of the starr
 The supporting cast Is headed by those consummate actors. Wal ter Huston and Warren William. Mr Huston plays the part of Cap tain Corlaix, commander of bat tle cruiser, whose duties make him neglect his wife. MT William por- trays the dashing Lieutenant D'Or- telles, whose love for the captains wife results in his. suicide, and th, her becoming an outcast.
 Others in the large. cast are George E. Stone, John Wray, Robert Warwick, Matt McHugh, Clarence Muse, Oscar Apfels Ben Hendricks, Jr, Maude Elburne. Walter Richmond, John Ruther- fosd Robert Rose. Eiinor Weisel- hoeft. Francis Burton. Francis MacDonaid, Jack Kennedy, Jack Curtis, Frank Leigh, Reginald Barlow, Dewey Robinson, Jack Santoro, Paul Porcasi and Tor renee Ray. @.. ...
 Michael Curtiz in his direction misses no opportunity to create beauty and action from the situa- tions and characters in the thrill-' ing drama. The photography is un- usual and the settings effective. All Is splendidly dominated by the magnetic personality of the lady from Over-Seas.

Ladies of the
 Big House" Sylvia Sidney Stars in Feature Opening at
 Palace

Paramount presents an excep- tional vehicle for intense dramatic action in Ladies of the Big House." which will be the feature at the Fox-Poli Palace starting Sunday.
 This picture has for it's leading featured artists two talented per- sonages who recently sprang into public favor because each possesses high ramatic ability, distinct personality, and good looks, qual- ities essential to success.
 Sylvia Sidney, who plays the leading woman's part, already has a strong fan following, because. of her outstanding work in "City Streets" with Gary Cooper, in "An American Tragedy" with Phillips Holmes, in "Street Scene" with

 they were both loves prisoners, drawing closer together as death,

 She has as her leading man, Gene Raymond, who sprang into prominence in the Broadway stage production "Young Sinners" which brought him a screen contract. Re- gently he was featured in Per sonal Maid" as Nancy Carrolps leading man.
 Raymond's light blond complex ion is pleasing contrast to Miss Sidney's dark tresses in the Ladies of the Big House." which is q gripping romantic love drama of the lives of two young people who on the eve of their wedding day are cruelty separated by the law.
 The picture has the strong punch of authenticity in it's prison scenes. 1t is a dramatic pen-picture by the convict-author Ernest Booth, with screen adaptation and dialogue by

HISTORY OF TELEGRAPH
 COMMUNICATION IN ALASKA

Following is the text of an address delivered recently by It. Col. Dawson oinstead., Officer in Charge, before the Seattle Quartermastes Training Conference.
 The Washington-Alaska Military Gable and Telegraph System had it's origin in 1900 and has, been operated by the Signal Corps, U, s. Army ever since.
 This paper has been prepared with the idea of setting forth in chrono- logical order the principal facts and events involved in the inception and subsequent development. of the Sys-. tenn from 1900 to the present time.
 l desire to thank It. Col. Charles Murphy, Signal Reserve, for contrib uting much of the subject matter of this paper. Colonel Murphy. is at present the Trafific Superintendent of the System and is the only indi- vidual now on duty with it that was a member of the original construction party assembled in San Francisco in l900 for construction work in Alasa.
 The Territory of Alaska, with an area of approximately 6Oo,OOO square miles, was, eeded to the United States by Russia. in 1867,
 United States. troops. were stationed In Alaska from 1867 to 1877. Upon, the wlandfawai of the. military, a naval officer governed for. many years
The Kusko times., 1932-10-08

at Sitka, when he also was with drawn, leaving the Territory without any form of government until the statute of 1884 established civil gov ernment. All laws were made by Congress until 1912, when Alaska was made an organized Territory, with capital at. Juneau.
 Gold was discovered in the klon- dike in 1897, and early in 1898 thou sands of prospectors went from the United States to various parts of Alaska. In 1899 placer gold was dis covered at Nome and considerable disturbance occurred due to disputed mining claims. This condition and the very large number of people in Alaska at that time caused the ad- ministration to establish military garrisons there. Garrisons Were es tablished at
 Fort, Davis, near Nome;
 Fort St. Michael, near the. mouth of the. Yukon;
 Fort Gibbon, at junction. of Yukon and Panama rivers;
 Fort Liscum, near Valdez;
 Chilkoot Barracks, near Skagway..
 For military purposes these gar risons composed the Department of Alaska, with headquarters at Fort St, Michael. In. order to furnish tele-. graphic communication between these garrisons and Department Headauar- ters Congress authorized in 1900 the construction of the necessary. tele- graph lines and cables for this .pur-. pose. It was stipulated in thet act that commercial business might be. done over these military lines. How. ever, the primary purpose was to. provide telegraph and cable com for the military forces in. 
 The construction of. these. Rnes was. started in the summer. of 1900, and in 1903, although recruit ing and maintenance work went on after that.
 They were built by the Signal Corps, assisted by details from the in- fantry over all kinds of country, in all kinds. of weather.@. The personnel engaged on this work withstood great suffering from extreme temperatures in winter and harrassed by mosquitoes in summer. : In the meantime the. Canadian Government had. constructed a tele-. graph line, from Ashcroft. B. G.. to Dawson. The line was extended to the boundary near Fort. Egbertt, where connection. was established with the Alaska Telegraph System. ,. 4 cahle was laid in 1900 between St. Michael and. Nome.
The Kusko times., 1932-10-08

A cable was, also laid in 1904 be- tween Juneau and Skagway, where it connected with Canadian telegraph lines and the ,Qutsisje>t
 The cable between St. Michael and Nome was unreliable because of inter ruptions caused. by the, and the gap between these points was finally bridged by radio in 1903. It is be- lieved that this was the. first point to-point radio: channel put in service on the American continen1 for com merciai service.
 The project as it stood provided communication from Department Headauarter sat Fort St. Michael to the Uhited States over. Signal Corps lines to Fort Egbert, thence by Ca asuian lines via Dawson and Ash croft, involving some 2,500 miles, the greater portion foreign-owned, and all of which. was slightly constructed.
 As a result, Congress appropriated approximately $8O0,0O0.. for the nur- chase and laying of cables, andss,s in 1908 aud 1904 cables were laid from Seattle to Sitka and Sitka to Valdez, with a. connecting leg to Juneau, a total of about 2.000 miles. These cables. ware laid by the. cableship, Burnside. which. was maintained by, the War Department for laying cables in the Philippines.
 - We now. pass. over. a 20-year period from 1904 to 1924.S. During that pe-. riod the old telegraph lines were gradually replaced by. radio.
 By 1924 the original cables4 were about worn out. and all of the mili tary garrisons had been gradually withdrawn, except that at Chilkoot Barr acks, near .Skagway,. whicm still remains.
 One might naturally ask why. at this point, with all garrisons with drawn save one, and the cables being worn ontsthe Government did not dis-s continue the Alaska System. Figures show. however, that. from its incep- tion the System was handling an ever-increasing amount of business, and in the year. 1924 the value of traffic handled amounted to over $400,000. This traffic was about equally divided between commercial traffic and that of :. the various Gov ernmental agencies operating in Alaska.
 Suffice it to esays that the Alaska Telegraph System has been, closely connected with the development of Alaska and has played no small part in thatdevelopment. All the major towns and settlements from Ketchi- kan on the south to Wiseman on the north, from Eagle on, the Calfadian boundary to Bethel on the kusko- kwim, were being furnished reliable telegraphic service at reasonable rates, so that. we see Congressin 1924 appropriating S1,00O,0OO for new cable to replace the old.
 The cableship Burnside 7 was like
