Kniman Celebrates the Victory.

Kniinan had the biggest celebration in'the county, over Commodore Dewey’s great victory at Manila. It was held Monday evening. A torch-light procession was organized, anvils tired and a big time generally. One of the anvils burst when fired, but there being no Spaniards around, it did not hurt anyone.
