Surplus and Profits $175,000 Established 1832 Was the Subject of Rev. W. O. Nuzum's . Address 8unday Evening at tho Methodist Church. There was a good attendance at the Methodist church Sunday evening. The pastor. Rev. W. O. Nuium, spoke on The Saloons of Willimantflo. Mr. Nuzum has made a personal study of the saloons of this city, visiting them, and has Been conditions as they really are. He said In part: Man is the only animal in the world who is real ten etory fool, the only animal who willfully and constantly will go to his destruction. No other animal will do it. Yet generation after generation of men follow the same course in the same way under the same circumstances to the same de struction. Alexander the Great was only 32 years old when he was con queror of the world, but he became a victim of drink and died prematurely. Robert Burns died poor and forsake because of drink. Byron wandered an exile all over the world because of drink. We are living In a land that Is the I most enlightened, the most temperate. most wonderful land, the greatest na tion, the last 50 years living In the greatest age the world has ever known. They used to test a nation by Ma armies; better wring their necks than have that kind of a test. The best way to . test a nation is not by its corn or ' cotton. A nation's greatness is its mechanical genius. America is the greatest industrial nation on earth. Mechanical genius will harness nature, will raise more crops, bring more lux uries and larger education. These are the tests of greatness. We produce more of the world's needs than any other nation. In the last 50 years two-thirds of the great discoveries have been made in the United States. What's the matter with England to day? Drunkenness. What's the mat ter with Germany? Drunkenness. With Russia? Drunkenness. What's the matter with France? Wine and women. The Methodist church is the enemy of the saloon. In the state of all states that for 40 years has held fast to temperance Kansas every fifth man is a Methodist. Kansas has more wealth per capita, more children in the colleges, in schools, because they haven't had any booze there in 40 years. What's the matter with our city here? The greatest evil In America is the American saloon. It is the worst institution on earth. You have not got in the city of Willimantic an ideal American saloon. I have looked them over and you haven't a gilded saloon in the city. Every last one of them are dirty, contemptible places. They haven't enough mirrors for some of you women to fix your hats with. The only good looking feature of the sa loons are the men behind the bar. You haven't got an American saloon here because most of them are foreign sa loons. Out of the average attendance of these saloons on Saturday night be twepn 9 and 11, of about 20 men, not a business man was to be found. By their language about 60 per cent, of the men in these saloons were foreign ers. You don't have in Willimantic an average. American saloon. You know why? Because your business men are too particular to drink in these dirty places. The danger and viciousness of this community are in your clubs. In the fire rooms, in these so-called select places, that's where your busi ness men and boys are getting their liquor, and not in these saloons. I give you warning that if I stay in this city I ehajl find every one of these places and we shall fight them earnest ly. I don't want to mention any of your societies, but I will mention them after I have made an investigation of them. There are something like 23 saloons in this city. The proprietors are near- y all foreigners. Most of the bartend ers were American young men. They are men who will not drink themselves. They confess that they are In a dirty business and would to God they were wout of it. There wasn't a man either proprietor or bartender who defended his business but one. What are you going to do about it? The easiest thing in the world would be to kick those saloons out. It is the so-called upper class, social societies, clubrooms, firehouse3 that your boys are tempted night after night. Shame on the community that permits sucn a thing as that. I honor the brave fire laddies, men who risk their lives to save my property and yours. You have no business to allow them to have this thing that goes to ruin their lives. That is the thing that is going to be hard to get out of this community. If we had ten men of real genuine God -like, temperance sentiment who would stand shoulder to shoulder we could drive this iniquity out and keep it out. Save these men from themselves. Save these bartenders for an honorable business. Save the proprietors from the damnation of the American sa loon. Save these boys from the temptations of clubs. Save the com munity and you will save the boy and the girl and save society. God grant It for His name's cake. Last of Union Services. The last of the union services was held at the Gem theatre Sunday even ing at 7 o'clock. There was a large attendance. Rev. W. D. Cavert of the Congregational church preached the sermon, taking for his subject What Shall I Do With Jesus? The quartette from the Congregational church, ac companied by Mrs. C. H. Caswell. rendered special music Mrs. Clark Burnham substituted for Miss Brand, soprano. TRIED TO BOARD EXPRESS Raymond Knapp Was Thrown on His Face and Rendered Unconscious. Raymond Knapp of North Windham attempted to board the Boston express as it was pulling out of the local sta tion Saturday noon and had a narrow escape from serious injury. He was on Railroad street when the train started and ran down the street to get on. He grabbed at the railing of the platform of the rear car and was swung into the air and he landed on his face In the slush and ashes. He was rendered unconscious for awhile and was taken in the railroad station and a physician sent for. By the time the doctor had arrived Knapp had recovered and showed no signs of in Jury other than a lacerated face. The express does not stop at North Wind ham but he evidently forgot about that when he attempted to board the train while It was in motion. Storra 'Reception Postponed.

Linsey of Webster, will come to a close with a service in which the congregations of all the Episcopal churches in this section will unite, at St. Alban's next Sunday afternoon at 3.30 o'clock. THIRTEENTH COMPANY PREPAREDNESS, Members of C. A. C. Would Be Ready to Respond Promptly if Call to Ser vice Came. There was something suggestive of the days of 'OS when the members of the Thirteenth company got to talk ing about the Mexican situation Satur day, after reading in the morning pa pera of the advance of United States regulars into Mexican territory. The paragraphs in the despatches dealing with the possibility or the militia be ing called out for active service were of special interest to the local coast artillerymen, many of whom wouldn't mind a call to don their uniforms for a tour of active service. "While the local command is official ly rated as a coast artillery company, it is equipped and prepared for ser vice as infantry and could respond to a call for service within a very few hours. The company is fully equipped for duty, needing only the attention of the commissary department and ample ammunition to make it an effective field force for war duty. There isn't any Inclination among the men to get real excited over the chance of being ordered out for ser vice, however, half a dozen previous false alarms on the Mexican question having produced a state of mind that does not flurry over rumors and pos sibilities any more. Tho company at present numbers 64 members. Many of them are men who have served long terms in the state organization and are close to the equals of regular troops. Then there are some Spanish war veterans in the list. These particularly would like chance at Mexican service- Should the company be ordered out it is not thought likely that it would be required to do more than replace regular troops ordered from their home station to the front. Purely as a spec ulative proposition, it is considered here that this company, in case of a call, might be sent to some of the sound fortifications below New Lon don. to relieve regulars. The Thlr teenth company has had its annual encampment for several years past at Fort Wright, Fishers Island, and pre vious to that at Fort Mansfield, Napa' tree Point, near Watch Hill. It is believed very likely that the membership of the local company would be promptly swelled to war strength in case there is a chance for the company to go out. There are numerous brave spirits here who would like nothing better than chance at active service, and while there has been no word said officially there may be a chance for them to go before long.

Department of Agriculture, entitled "Habit Forming Agents," referring to caf feine and other ingredients used in the manufacture of certain soft drinks, headache mixtures, etc., says: "Until recently it was claimed by some that these agents were harm less and did not belong to the habit forming group. Later investigations, however, clearly show that this posi - tion is unwarranted." The average cup of coffee contains about 2V2 grains of caffeine. Mothers give it to their children and wives give it to their husbands unconscious of the harm coffee does to health When the nerves cry out, or indigestion, biliousness, headache or heart flutter begin to trouble, it's time to look to the cause. An easy, sure way out of coffee troubles is to quit the coffee, and use PO the pure cereal food-drlnt There are two forms of Postum. The original Postum Cereal must be boiled; Instant Postum is quickly soluble in hot water, more convenient to prepare, and has the same rich flavour as the original Postum. Some prefer one form, some the other; both are free from the habit-forming dnig, caffeine, or any other harmful substance, and the cost per cup is about the same. cc There's That said special agents are au thorized, empowered and directed to select or employ some suitable bank or trust company to certify to the genuineness of said bond Issue, and to act as registrar for said bonds, with authority to employ, at the expense of the town, attorneys selected by said bank or trust company, who shall pass upon and certify to, the legality of said issue. Further voted: That a sinklag fund be created, or other provision made, for the retirement of said bonds, the details of which shall be left to the judgment and discretion of said special agents. That said special agents be given full power and authority to do and perform nll.acts necessary or con venient for carrping into full effect the general purpose of the town as evidenced by its votes this day pass ed; subject, however, to any express provisions or restrictions contained in said votes with reference to the issuance of paid bonds and their re tirement, including in said power and authority the determination of tho terra.- upon which said bonds sball be disposed of the receiving and re ruM a Reason" for ceipting for tho proceeds of their sale, the engraving of said bonds, and othei such detain as may bo required or seem expedient to said agents to ef fectuate the purpose of tho town as indicated by aald several vote.
