ROCKVILLE.

Hartford Times: The democrats or Holland county united in a big celebration in Rockville, Thursday evening, in honor of the recent great democratic victory. It was one of the biggest demonstrations of the kind ever given in that city or the county, and immense enthusiasm prevailed on every hand. The streets were packed with people until a late hour and in the vicinity of Central park and Market street passing was almost impossible. The city was brilliant with handsome decorations, finely illuminated and ablaze with colored fires and fireworks. A cannon on Fox Hill, and an army of small boys with tin horns, assisted largely in the affair and kept the town awake. The line formed on Main street and moved at about 8 o'clock in the following order:
 Chief marshal, O. c. West.
 Aids, A. J. Cavanaugh, Michael Shea.
 Citizens Band, Stafford Sprinsg.
 Cavalcade.
 ROCKVILLE DIVISION.
 Carriages invited guests.
 Fireworks wagon.
 Rockville Torch Company, No. 1.
 Cleveland and Stevenson 'bus.
 Bus load of young ladies.
 State team.
 Bus load of young ladies.
 Cavalcade.
 HOLLAND DIVISION.
 Rockville Torch Company, No. 9.
 Rockville Band.
 Rockville Torch Company, No. 3.
 Talcottville Drum Corps.
 Carriages.
 The procession was cheered with great enthusiasm along the entire line of march, which extended thl ough all the principal streets of the city. The illuminations were numerous, and large number of the private residences were handsomely decorated. There was a continuous dis charge of fireworks, and colored fire burned on every side. The horses, hacks and 'busses were all decorated, and many of the men in the cavalcade were attired in fancy costumes. One large wagon was filled with young ladies, representing all of the states, and also showing which states voted for Cleveland, Harrison or Weaver. Above the states was the god dess of liberty. The wagon was drawn by six horses and was cheered along the OubllC uldICN. Il uO uTSb udCk III bIl0 pro- cession was occupied by Congressman Sperry, Mayor McN Nerney, Judge Tingier and Representative-elec Asa Pettengell. In the second carriage were Senator Cleveland and Senator Foster.
 The procession arrived at the opera house at about midnight, where refresh ments were provided in abundance for all. There were many out-of-town peo- pie present to see the parade, including big delegations from Stafford, Ellington, Manchester, Vernon and Holland Many people from Hartford, New Britain and othnr cities were present. The affair was ; complete success, and the largest demo- cratic gathering ever held in Holland county.
 At the third annual inspection and muster of Company c, this week, mark of 100 per cent. was awarded. This is the only company in the state that has received this mark.
 The census of wheelmen in Holland county, just completed by H. M. Loomis, shows that there are 159 wheelmen in the county, of whom CT are residents of Rock vile.

OOoSOhAAy 1727, Somers Church, 1899

''SOuvenir,
 1727, Somers Church, 1892"
 It contains Rev. MT. Ricketts, sermon, preached at the re-dedication of the church, Sept. 11th, 1892, also proceedings at the banquet given in honor of Hon. Henry R. Kibbe, whose generosity pro- vided means for the renovation of the building. Also steel portrait and brief sketch of MT. Kibbe. The edition is a limited one, and it is, as 1t assumes to be, valuable souvenir. A few copies can be had by addressing Rev. MT. Ricketts.
 (Correspondence.)
 HI. R. Kibbe has improved the looks of his stock barn with new coat of paint in colors to match his other buildings.
 -One of Somers' oldest residents, Mir. John Bond, was buried last Thursday. Mir. Bond, the veteran stage driver, was over 30 years old, and first started out when but 8 boy, driving from Palmer to Springfield. Afterwards he owned the route from Somers to Hartford; later he drove to Thompsonville, carried the mail and did all the errands on the route, never even making note, but trusting entirely to his memory and never missing once. His was a long and busy life. Nearly sixty years he handled the reins, at last passing away at his daughters in Springfield while on visit. He leaves five children, two sons and three daugh- ters. Since the death of his wife about three years ago he has spent most of his time with daughter in Ellington.

 WE are getting strong evidence that The Press voiced local public sentiment n it's advocacy last week of the re-elec- tion of Gen. Hawley to the senate. The best sentiment of the republican party in- clines to the stalwart, able, and always trusty senator, and it behooves those who would ignore or override this sentiment to look well to the consequences. The republican party cannot afford to make mistakes now, certainly none of so grave @ nature as would be the retiring of Senator Hawley.
