CORNERSTONE LAYING.
Jewish Society Will Parade in Derby
 On Sunday.

Jewish Society VIII Parade in Derby
 On Sunday.
 Derby, July 30,-On next Sunday afternoon will occur the cornerstone laying of the Jewish synagogue, which is in course of erection on Colburn street. The event will be memorable one in the history of the local congre- gation, and 1t is their intention to com memorate 1t in manner truly fitting the occasion.
 Prominent New Haven rabbis and a number of other high church officials from neighboring cities will be present at the ceremonies and will participate in parade to be made through Main street, headed by the Phoenix brass band, previous to the opening of the ceremonies.
 As now arranged, the parade will form in front of the Farrell foundry at 2:15 p. m. on Sunday, to move promptly at 2;30, headed by the brass band. The line of march will be short-down Main street to Colburn street, to where the synagogue is in course of erection. The work of laying the foundation is being pushed along rapidly, a. large force of masons being employed, and everything will surely be in readiness for Sunday.
