the audience, led by the musical di-
rector of the Church of Christ, Alfred
Bellingame, with Fred W. Bailey Off
ciating at the piano.
Mr. Guy opened the meeting with a
few remarks on the object of the rally,
and told of some of the evils of the
saloon. I'm Worcester there is one
open saloon to every 113 families" he
said. "They are asking more than
money from us; they are asking our
lives. Is it not time that the voters
of our city should arise and give this
monstrous evil a blow from which it
can never recover?"
George E. Whitney was introduced,
and spoke a word for young men.
i've got a boy of my own; some of
you have sons and brothers" he said.
What would you do for them? Those
boys are bright, vivacious, full of a
certain kind of courage. You are
proud of your boy, and you may well
be. He has lots of opportunities, and
if rightly guided, he may be a power for
good or for evil. In him appetites are
lying dormant, of which he may know
nothing. Is there not in every human
being certain tendencies which, If fed
upon, would lead in a direction which
we would scorn to follow? God grant
that they are never awakened. We
would not keep our boys away from
their fellows. Put them in the fore
front, but do not put too much tempt
alton before them. We who love our
boys, every boy, what shall we do
with them?
Before the bar of your family, be-
fore the bar of God, do you want to be
a party in saying that the sale of
liquor shall be legalized? For the sake
of the money which will come into the
city Golfers, will you place the tempta-
ton in this way before your children?
Which side do you want to be on?
May whose we are whom we serve
help us to act right and vote right.
j. K. Greene next spoke on the sta
tistics of the liquor trade, telling how
much liquor is manufactured in the
country, and of the consumption of it.
"These statistics, however" he said,
can give but little idea Of the aggre-
gate result of liquor drinking. Last
year the city received $165,O00 for Ii
censes, and there were 5000 arrests for
drunkenness-$40 apiece. There Is to
be circulated in the city before long
an estimate Of the cost of the liquor
businesses in Worcester, but the figures
will not give an idea of the despair in
the families of the drinkers.

IN THE PHILIPPINES.
A Fitchbure Man Notified of Private
KelIey's Death.

William j. Booden, of 80 Charles
street, Fitchburg, was in Worcester
yesterday at the recruiting office in the
Walker building, with a copy Of a
telegram which he received Friday,
stating that ]. j. Kelley, private in
Company B, Ninth regular infantry, in
the Philippines, had died.
Mr. Booden told Sergt James E..
Chamberlain that he got the telegram
from his brother, James Booden, who
is also in the Philippines, and he asked
that the sergeant look the matter up
for him.
The records at the recruiting office
show that Kelley enlisted under Lieut.
H. N. Royden at the Walker building
Nov. 20, 1898, and was one of the first
men that Lieut.. Royden secured for
service in the Philippines. He was
sent to Madison barracks, New York.
where he was attached to Company B
of the Ninth infantry and later de-
parted with that regiment for the
Philippines. AT that time his home
was on East Worcester street in this
city.
Sergt Chamberlain thinks that the
telegram received by Mr.. Booden must
have come from the war department.
Mr.. Booden did not bring the original
with him. but had copy and said he
thought it was from his brother.
In enlisting men it is rule for the

keepers. 1t is the right of every young
man in Worcester to have before him
right ideals What will you expect of
the rising generation, which has these
horrible sights ever before him. l call
tonight on the men to do their part in
putting away these sights from before
our youth. You women should make it
so interesting for the men in your
homes that they will not dare to stay
awa.- from the polls. If the girls would
only recognize the influence they have
over the men, they would use it against
that which saps the life of our city"
Rev. Mr.. Nichols then announced a
rally to be held in Mechanics hall next
Saturday night, and children's rally
to be held at Trinity church Saturday
afternoon from l to 8 o'clock.
The audience then arose, and led by
the band, sang one verse of America"
and the meeting was closed.

notified in case of death, and Sergt.
Chamberlain feels that Kelley in fill

that Mr.. Booden be notified in case OF
his death Priv Kelley was a cousin
of the Fitchburg man, and 1t is prob
able that he was shot in skirmish
with the Filipinos. The Ninth has seen
