ANTI-SALOON ADDRESS Gustav Bochman of Hartford Speaks at First Congregational Church.

At the First Congregational church Sunday morning Gustav Bochman of Hartford gave a convincing address, showing the tremendous evils and tragedies resulting from the saloons Some of the strong points made were the worthlessness of beer as nerve food of any kind: increase of taxes rents, this increase being necessary to support institutions, prisons, ja1ls, in-' ebriate farms and a reformatory for women in Connecticut. Withot this increase in rents many of the working men could secure home with a gar den where they could raise vegetables instead of frequenting saloons; over four thousand prisons ihPConnecticut. almshouses are increasing in number; we are playing losing game fnan- cially and a losing game morally; ac- cording to statistics of insurance com panies in the state of New Hampshire sixty-five out of every hundred are in the state hospitals for the insane from the effects of drink: heavy demands upon Connecticut for new buildings the coming year for the insane. can be traced to the sale of beer and whis- key, waste not only of money but of men and women.
 Close up saloons so that unreliable amm unition may not be sent to our soldiers. MT. Bochman, though a Ger man himself. says he is Americanized and is willing that his sons should take their place in France in the war. to do this year? There are 91 dry towns and 76 wet towns. New London and other cities expect to go dry on the coming election. Let us rise up in our manhood and drive the saloon out of Norwich and out of Connecticut.
