Festivities.

The fourth of July dawned bright
and beautiful and a great crowd of
people came to the city early, bent
upon a jolly time. The prepara-

had worked with assiduity and good
Judgment and are to be commend
ed and congratulated for the excel
lence of their work. The parade was
fine, the best ever seen in the
city; the floats were numerous and
representative, exhibiting good
taste, ingenuity and a great deal of
work in the preparation; the feature
of sports was attractive; the music
of the bands and the orchestra was
fine; the Grafton was good, and the

that sport. The orderly and consid-
crate conduct of the people through
