 Colored Company
 of Home Guards

William Thomas, steward of the Keystone club at s39 Broad street, has announced his intention of rais- ing a company of colored men to be attached to the Home Guards. Thomas claims there are ITO mem bers of the Keystone club. He has had military training In the National Guard and believes a company such as he proposes to form will be well comed in the Home Guards. To the colored men of Bridgeport he has is- sued the following appeal:
 ''There comes a time in every mans life when he is called upon to exercise his full manhood.
 ''In my efforts to raise a company of Home Guards 1t is my purpose to get the best material, men that fully realize that they are American citi- zens.
 "As colored men of the United States we have answered the roll call in every war. Our duty is to form a company and present it to the state for its approval and if accepted stand ready to show that we have inherited the bravery and courage of our fore fathers. Every generation must do it's part and the time is here now for us to show that we mean to share witho ther loyal Americans our DOT tion of theb urden. As one man am willing to enter the ranks and after we have formed select the men that are best qualified to fill the important offices necessary to make the said company second to none in the state of Connecticut.

HOHENzOlLERNS
 MUST GO, SAYS GOV. H0LC0MB
"In This War And In It to Stay" He Tells Audience
 at High School.

We are in this war and in it to stay. Either Prussian militarisrn will be destroyed or we will be subjected to 1t. The German people are the most lovable people on earth. If any people on earth are capable of self ernment 1t is the German people. When this war is settled 1t is my opinion that the Hohenzollern dynasty must go.''
 Governor Marcus H. Holcomb so expressed his views on the war last night, at 8 meeting held in the High school auditorium under the auspices of Lieut.. N. W. Bishop camp, No. 3, U. s. w. V. The purpose of the meet Ing was to organize a company of the Home Guards composed of Spanish War veterans. Twenty-one enlisted last night, nine reported they were already enrolled and 10 signifed their Intention of enrolling.
 Tt is hard to make the people of Connecticut believe that war is here. There is no knowing when little sub- marine will bob up in the sound and our adjacent waters and open fire on our cities. We have never prepared for war. That Is because we arc not a warlike nation and do not seek con- quest"
 The governor said that Connecticut was the most important state in the Union in the present crisis because 54.6 per cent of all. war munitions manufactured in the United States are made here now. He urged every citi- zen who is not eligible to join the reg ular or National Guard forces to join the Home Guards
 The meeting was preceded by a par ade in which the Second, Fourth and Eleventh companies. Coast Artillery the Coast Artillery band, medical de- tachment, First Field Ambulance company and the Lieut.. Bishop camp spanish War Veterans, took part.
 Past Department Commander Wm Lounsbury, who led the Spanish War Veterans introduced Lieut.. N. w. Bishop, chairman of the meeting. Col Lucien F. Burpee of Hartford, mem Der of the Military Emergency com mittee also spoke urging enlistments for the Home Guard. Col. Burpee served as judge-advocate general dur ing the Spanish war.
 An audience of nearly 1000 was at tracted to the High school auditor ium for the meeting.
