Those who have used it in Pull

action of simple buckthorn bark

of Adler-i-ka relieves almost ANY
CASE OF constipation, sour stomach,

foul matter that a few doses often
relieve or prevent appendicitis. A

DOWNEN WRITES INSURANCE
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-01-27
BIG FUND READY FOR NEW NORTH CHURCH BUILDING 
 Congregational Leaders Here Pledge $8O,OOO For United
 Churches. CAN'T SELL NORTH
 CHURCH PROPERTY South and North Churches to Meet Next Week to Ratify Committees Work

That $80,OOO has been pledged by members of the North and South Con- gregational churches to be used for the construction of a modern edif1ce on the site of the North church, be- came known today.
 Mem berS of the two churches ..tf| have separate meetings on next W ed nesday night, when it is expected that the work of the. joint committee of the two churches will be ratified. Tn committee has agreed upon plans for the consolidation of the two churches and the rebuilding of the North church.
 The plans of the leaders in the con soIidation movement, to sell both church properties and to rear a mod ern edffice upon a location not so near the business center have been hampered by the discovery that the North church property is held under a deed which provides that if it should be used for any but church purposes, it shall revert to heirs of the original owner. Realty experts who viewed the property for the church people valued it at $9O,000.
 With the untfsuaEls. generous pledges already receiveGs. enthusiastic churchmen predict that that fund, ex- elusive of the money from the sale of the South church property, will be $15o,000.
 The committees report, it is un- derstood. does not take up the ques- ton of the pastorate.

MACHINISTS TO INSTITUTE LONG
 DRIVE IN WEEK Preliminary Campaign For 8-Hour Day All Ready
 For Start. CIRCUIT SPEAKERS
 NAMED FOR WORK Bridgeport's Labor Defense Fund Accumulates For
 Expected Use.

George J. Bowen, business agent of the International Association of Ma chinists, Local No. 30. announced to- day that the general campaign for an eight-hour day will have it's beginning in Bridgeport next week.
 Ten circuit speakers will tour Con necticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Is land, and the first will appear here within a few days. Meetings will be held once a. week all winter.
 The purpose is to educate the ma chinists concerning what has been obi tained here, what may be obtained and what unionism stands forA IL is merely a preparatory campaign, for the spring drive that is expected to convert all Bridgeport manufacturers engaged in machine work.
 <<The Labor Defense Fund will be ready by spring, when it will be used to protect the workingmen from abuses such as they suffered last sum mer.
 The machinists expect to raise more than $500 for the Danbury matters. In conjunction with organized labor throughout the United States, Bridge port unions are selling tags for one hours Bay, to union members. The equivalent of the hours labor in cash will go into a fund being raised by the Federation of Labor for the relief of the 180 defendants in the famous suit or ID. E. LOeWe ct al. VS. Martin Lawler ct al., which reached it's final stage in the district court here last week when a writ was issued for the sale of the property taken under at tachment in the boycott suit. There are 1855 parcels of property, mostly the modest little homes of the men who were named among the defend ants.
 Counsel for the hatters' obtained the privilege of having each piece of real estate sold separately on the premises instead of in bulk at an auctioneer's block in the county court house. The homes taken on foreclosure are in Danbury, Bethel and Norwalk.
 On Jan. 8, in conformity with a vote of the American Federation of Labor convention held in San Fran cisco srecently, President Samuel Gompers issued an appeal to organiz- ed labor in this form:
 twill you give an hour of your 1a- Dor in righteous cause on Hatters' Day, Jan. 27, 1916?''
 Holders and coremakers of Bridge port, backed by their international as sociation, will begin a campaign Mon day for a minimum wage.

 The resolution follows:
 Resolved, ~that this national labor party protests emphatically against the adoption of conscription in any form, as it is against the spirit of British democracy and will be a dan ger to the liberties of the people,
 When the delegates assembled today for the second days session they found this resolution on their tables and also one on the military service bill which were designed to take the place of the numerous proposals which have been made on these subjects.
 The other resolution placed before the congress follows:
 This conference declares it's oppo- sition to the military service bill, and in the event of it becoming law de- cides to agitate for it's repea1"

 J. R. O'Leary, president of the In- ternational Association of Iron Mold CTS of North America, has come to this city and will address the meeting Monday evening. He probably will seek audiences with the manufactur- CTS next week. MT. O'Leary said to- day: "The sentiment among the men in Bridgeport is that they want a minimum wage of $3.50. Some of them are receiving less than that.
 ''The campaign will be short. It will take only a week to learn don't, of course. the men don't have to work.
 s'The International pays strike benefits, whether you've been in the union 20 years or 20 minutes. We don't expect much opposition to the plan because the moIding industry in the United States is more prosperous than it ever has been.''
 The women of the city working as coremakers, against whose treatment many protests were made last sum ner, will not be affected, as the union deesnft admit women. The union op- is opposed to the employment of women in such heavy work.
