 l -J. N. Benjamin Is back in Dimock' s market, hls health being improved The republican club on Tuesday, at 30 p. m., received uniforms and torches for two companies, and the same evening came out for parade, making 8 good ap- pearance. The line of march was up East Main to East-st., back to Grown, through Crown-st., Westford-ave.; Furnace-aye., , Edgewood, High and Main and Springs streets, to the Springs House, whence lion. John A. Kasson, the orator of the evening, was escorted to Oronoco Hall, which was we'll filled with auditors to hear his ad- dress. There were fine illuminations along the line of march, the Warren mills, and many residences in their vicinity, especial ly. Woodlawn and Highland Terrace were brilliant. For lack of time the circuit of the latter precinct was not made, but the brilliant decorations were much admired | from Main-st. and other points. Mir. Kas sons speech was one of the most logical arguments we have heard in this or in, most other campaigns. He was for years congressman, for ten years member of the ways and means committee, and at the time of the change of administration min- ister to Gafmany. He reviewed tariff his tory since Washington's time, the origin and history of the Mills bill, which he al so analysed, at every point challenging contradiction and inviting inquiry. Torrent Engine Co., had It's annual pa rade on Saturday afternoon last. Threat H17t finally started out with pluck that de- served clearing skies. But no such re- ward came to them, instead the march was cut short by an increasing rain fall. They have their annual ball next Wednes- day evening. In connection the orchestra, Gardner and Clare's, of Springfield, will give a concert, the program of which is L. L'Overture-ssLe Diadem," Herman. Selection-Puritans Daughter, Herold.
