Up in the town many were astir early completing the arrangements for the formal celebration of the bridge. Bridge street, High street and adjacent thoroughfares puton a new and bright dress for the day. Bunting was used with bounteous Uberal- ity, At the intersection of Bridge and High | flags and banners were sutowchea overheed crted the streets, some of them bearing inscriptions of SCENES ON THE STREETS.

Soon after- ward the beating of drums, the tramping of feet, and now and then the bDiare of @ horn was heard as the military and other organizations to take part in the parade assembled.
