The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1899-09-26

Arrangements for the big firemen's
parade on Thursday, oct. 3, are pro-
crossing rapidly and the committee is
now engaged in perfecting the smaller
details of the affair.
The line of march, which is given be-
low, is one of the most complete ever
arranged for a parade in this city,
traversng as it does nearly every one
of the principal streets in the central
part of the city. This will afford all
persons, desirous of seeing the process
sion, ample room. A noticeable feature
OF the letter carriers parade was the
concentration of enormous crowds on
Lackawanna and other streets in the
vicinity. leaving jefferson avenue, over
which the parade passed, almost de-
| serted. BY extending the line of march
out both jefferson and Washington ave-
nues, the committee hopes to relieve
| the congestion in the above mentioned
! places.
The parade will be reviewed by the
! city officials and state officers from a
! large stand on wyoming avenue in
! front of the International Correspond
! ence Schools. This stand will be very
| elaborate and will be used in the even
/ ing as a band stand for the asphalt
| dance. Work on this will be COM
mcnced tomorrow or Thursday. as will
! also the work on the electric illumina-
! tiOns and arches.
