Fire Department Parade

The annual parade of the Middletown fire department took place Thursday afternoon. It was gala day in the town. The companies formed at the park and the procession moved over the prescribed route. It was a fine show. At St. Johns square the bands of music and companies were massed, making handsome sight as they moved down Main street, the melody of the music rendered by the bands drowning the tramp, tramp of feet Gas we go marching on." The parade occu- pied nearly two hours. The fremen were dismissed in front of the McDonough House. Flags were displayed along the line of march from public buildings and private residences, and the houses of the several companies donned their gayest attire. Hubbard Hose company, No. ?, did not turn out. A legend on card in front of their carriage informed the public that ''We do not parade to-day, but are always ready for duty" After the dismissal of the companies O. V. Coffin Esq, was serenaded.
 In the evening the Hooks wound up the days pleasures by giving their eighth annual ball in McDonough Hall It was largely at- tended and entire satisfaction was given to all present.
 The members of Forest City Hose com pany, No. 3, gave an elegant sociable in Ar mory Hall A large and delighted party was present. Nothing occurred toin any way mar the pleasures of the occasion.
