The business men of the city are antici-
pating good trade next week because of
the crowds that will be attracted to the
street fair, and the store windows and dis
play counters will be seen at their best by
Tuesday. No little pains will be taken to
make the bushes houses appear to best
advantage, and the enterprise will no doubt
bring good returns to those exerting them
selves. The interest being taken by the
business men shows them to be wide awake
and there will be some handsome booths
within the enclosure when the gates open.
