The ELECTRIC INTERCHANGEABLE Morrison, of
the Electric Light company, kept his word last
night, and Illuminated the avenue with electric
lights, though it was after nine O'Clock before
the Illumination took place, and many people had
turned home believing that another failure had
been made. The lights were allowed to burn an
hour or more, and the effect on the avenue was
very brilliant The delay in the Illumination was
que 10 the lmposS blty OF getting the apparatus
ready earlier. The lights were not as strong as
they were expected to be. Tonight IL Is pre-
somed that the power VIII be greatly increased
