THE LIBERTY LOAN.

A patriotic effort is being made b,
the Treasury Department at Wash.
ington to popularize the liberty loan
the effort is being also made by the
bankers and by the bond-sellers, but
the loan can be popularized only by
the people. If the citizens Of the
United States wish to have their most
effective guns fired against Germany
and all other enemies of popular gov
eminent they can do no better than
to subscribe to the Liberty Loan. The
cnJ., way to put Germany in complete
fear Of this country Is to let the
Treasury Department announce that
the loan has been oversubscribed in
multiples of the smaller denomina-
tons, rather than in large sums TAX
en- by the bankers, SO that the enemy
will know that this is war Of ali
the people of the United States. The
first chance OF the people to do this
is their best chance and probably
the last chance they will have, for
If the subscription is found to &c
wanting, then the wealthy institutions
of the country may. really get big

BRIDGEPORT As II WAS
1OO150-2O-YEARS AGO
Taken from the Files Of The Evening Farmerl

man, apparently about 20 years of
age, fired a pistol at the Tsar or in the
direcNon in which he sat in the car
riage. It appears as if the weapon
had been overloaded for the pistol
exploded wounding the hand of the
wouldbe assassin. It is alleged that
a person standing in the crowd threw
up the arm of the wretch by a
promptly dealt stroke just as he dis
charged the pistol. He was prompt
ly cut down, severely wounded and
made prisoner. by the escort in at
tendance on the imperial party. The
imperial carriage passed on without
hitting.
1t is supposed that the william is a
Pole for the reason that just previous
to the attempt. cries Of ''Vive Ia
Pagne!" were heard in the crowd and
in different directions. The royal
party as we'll as the persons forming
the cortege of honor escaped for
tunately without injury. Great ex-
element exists in Paris. No facts
are positively known relative to the
case with the exception of the at
tempted murder, the escape of the
Tsar and seizure of the fellow who
tried to assassinate him. The Tsar
Alexander will receive the universal
congratulations Of Europe on this, his
second escape from assassination.

Request Clergy TO
Urge Bond Purchase

Hartford, June EVERY dollar
invested in Liberty bonds in an in
vestment in democracy said Gov.
Marcus H. Hoicomb in a statement
urging the people of Connecticut to
buy these war bonds and help put
this state in the first rank for amount
per capita loaned to aid the cause Of
work. freedom through the purchase
of Liberty bonds. The olergymen of
the state are urged by the governor
to bring the loan to the attention of
their congregations from their pull
pits.
The governors statement follows:
LIVERY loyal person should, as far
and in as large amount as Is possible.
purchase the Liberty loan bonds. To
do so is a practical expression of 10y
atty and every dollar SO invested is
an investment in democracy. If it
appears that Connecticut is the 1arg-
est investor per capita in these bonds
we shall have reason to be proud of
our state.
In order to bring this loan to the
attention of every one, some states
are asking their clergymen to place
the matter before their people at
their services. I think that is a fine
idea and take this means of re-
questing the clergymen of our state
to take the same course"

Release Eccentric
Anti Draft Speaker

Hartford. June limited States
District Attorney Thomas J. Spellacy
telephoned United States Commits
sioner Wright in New Haven yester-
day to release Anthony Carroll on his
own recognizance, provided Carroll
agreed to waive his right for a hear
ing. The district attorney said:
t'In view of the advanced age of
Carroll, who has been arrested for
advising in a public speech against
registration and in considers ton of
the further fact that Mr.. Carroll s
health is not good, and that he has
been confined in New Haven county
Jail because of failure to obtain a
bondsman and secure his liberty,
have recommended to the commits
sioner that Carroll be released on his
own recognizance to await any action
that the grand jury may take in his
case
The district attorney has also re-
quested Commissioner Carroll of this
city to release Louis Brodzak of New
York city, arrested at the railroad sta
ton here yesterday for having anti
CONSUMPTION literature in his posses
sion, under bonds of $1,000. i Bonds
have been furnished in this case.
In the case of Matthew Mazeka OF
New Britain, also arrested for having
anti-conscription literature in his
possession, a bond of $4,000 was or
dered but the prisoner is still in Jail
All the cases will be further inves-
tigated and presented to the grand
jury if the facts warrant it.

ty Loan headquarters in the Equit-
able building, N. z; they came pri-
marilye to subscribe in behalf Of 500
members of the Chinese-American

the uniform of a member Of the
Home Defense League of the Twen-
ty-ninth precinct. He was accompan-
fed by Philip G. Kee. The latter told
that the members of the Alliance, as
soon as they had been informed OF
the terms and objects of the Liberty
Loan, had subscribed eagerly
The Cinnamon of the Alliance are
drilling several times a week to train
themselves for service under Uncle
Sam. Ii Tion To, of the students mill
tary training corps in Columbia Uni

Ca child could eat 1t without injury.
Always sold under a money-back
