Goes With State Temperance Union
Orman Ryther Becomes Associate Secretary and rim
4anciai Agent with Headquarters at Hartford-Will
axe rim Away from .<orwich Eventually,

Mr.. Ryther came here as general
secretary of the Y. NJ c. A. which
Office he filled with marked ability,
holding it for five years from May /,
1893. On April first his resignation
went into effect and he has for the
past seven years been engaged In the
nursery business, having taken over
the Crane nurseries.
He has always been closely ident1-
fed with temperance work ever since
mis- college days at Brown ana mas
kept it up during the years spent IN
this city. 1t was through his activity
in that line that the state temperance
union sought his services. In the
March issue of the Connecticut CIT
isen the monthly pamphlet published
by the state temperance union, 1t says:
The picture en- the cover this time
is that of Mr.. .. e. Ryther, one OF our
Gew directors. who is for a time at
least to take up the work of securing
money for this union. Mr.. Ryther mas
had long experience in I. NJ c. A.
work, ana for the past three years has
been chairman Of the very efficient
ao-iicense committee of Norwich.
where such splendid gains have been
made in the fight against the saloon.
he will be available for speaking work
on Sunday as he plans to make his
rest day come when opportunities for
that kind of service are not at hand.
we recommend him to our friends
as a wide-awake Christian man. who
VIII help anywhere they care to use
him.
1T is but fair to say that for vari-
Gus reasons a permanent arrangement
has not yet been made for his services:
as his own business matters, as We'll
as the condition of affairs in this I'M
ion. make it a matter which must
await further developments peIore
final settlement.
"At any rate he is with us during
this emergency time, and will be one
of our strong helpers on the board
of directors. if he does not come into
the permanent work.
Since that was published, the ar
ran gements for him to take up the
work have been made and he is now
engaged i'll it.

OF UNION MEN.
Two Speakers from Boston Give Ad-
dresses in Breed Theater.

A public mass meeting and smoker
were held on Sunday afternoon from
2 to o'clock by the Cigarnakers'
union local No. 407, and had an audi
ence of nearly 400 men. who listened

attending by illness.
President William Harrington of the
Norwich local presided and introduced
the speakers after a brief welcoming
speech to the union men and others
gathered in the theater. Mr. Goldsteln
was the principal speaker of the aft
ernoon. the general topic for the meet
ing being Our Label. He advocated
strongly buying local cigars, and de-
voted much attention to the tobacco
trust, telling of its shops in Georgia,
where 1000 girls work and chiefly
machine-mad cigars are turned out.
By reading parts of the briefs in the
governments case against the trust,
he gave the audience a clear under
standing of the subject.
President Stancombe spoke more
briefly but effectively pointed out
what the label means for both union
man and consumer.
An enjoyable musical programme
for the afternoon included two selec-
tions by the Sodality quaftette, who
sang Silver Threads Among the Gold,
and The Sailors Song; baritone solos
by Raymond O'Neil. who gave Only
Flows; and selections by Tubbs' or
chestra. Cigars and small court plas-
ter pockets We're distributed as SOU

Brush Fires Do Much Damage to
Woodland Sunday-Garde Brebeuf
at Observation-Disclosures Inter-
eStS.

Boss Farmer e. w. Warrington of the
Ponemah company was notified early
Sunday afternoon of a brush fire on
the north side of John Nolan's place.
With two men, MIR. Warrington went up
to fight the fire. He found that Fire
Warden Charles p Bushnell had the
blaze well under control. and together
they quickly put it out. The fire saart-
ed about 1 o'clock and burned over
about an acre and a half The damage
was little as the land is purposely
burned over every year.
Later in the afternoon Mr.. Bushnell
and his men were forced to turn their
attention to the fire on Mr.. BushnelPs
land which had advanced northward
from Mohegan park and A. L. Potter's
land. At one time, 1t was stated Mr.
BushnelPs barn was in danger of be-
ing burned, but this was prevented.
Many young trees on his woodland
were scorched and some cord wood was
burned up, so that the damage win be
considerable. The volume OF smoke
by day and the glare of the long lines
of. creeping flames by night attracted
Inrch attention.
The fires were still going briskly in
the evening, the burning piles of cord
wood in back of Sachem park making
a brilliant display, which could be seen
from afar.
