Wilmington is now in gala attire
and still the work of decorating con-

night. For the first time the special
illuminations were l.ghtad last night
and the street was a blaze Of light.
The overhead signs Of the various
fire companies were lighted and they
were much admired.
The City Hall has four ropes OF
| electric lights extended from the top
OF the tower to the roof of the build
ing, the edge Of which is outlined
/ with lights. In addition TO these H.
! luminations electric lights will be
/ stretched across Market street four
strings in each square. making a roof
OF blazing lights along that thorough
! fare.
To dwell on the individual decora-
tions and illuminations would require
| considerable space The decorations
in general are the most beautiful ever
seen in the city.
