Occasion Is the Semi
1 centennial Celebra-
! ton of the Charter
ing of TRIM ty Com
mandery of Augusta
{-Elaborate Prepare
tons for Carrying
out of. Splendid Pro-
gram, \

This day is to witness Au-
gusta in gala attire, adorned
with waving bunting and well
coming legends, and spangled at
evening with colored lights; for
the Knights Templar are to be
here today almost 1000 strong,
and will parade through the
streets of the capital city to the
music of seven bands with a
total membership of 275.
The weather conditions of the
last "a hours have been uncer-
tain and threatening; should the
same conditions continue today
the number of visiting knights
would be somewhat reduced and
the program for fair weather
would be laid aside and the
rainy day program, as thor
oughly prepared as the fair
weather program, be taken up
in its stead. But, be it fair at
1880 this morning, one of the
grandest parades ever seen in
Augusta will start from its
formation between Western
avenue and Bridge street on
State street and follow the
course as described below in the
details of parade.
With favorable weather con-
diti0ns at least 925 knights
Templar will march in this pa
rade, which is part of the GEL
ebration of the semi-centennial
of Trinity Commandery No. Z,
of Augusta. The preparation
for the day has embraced a ire
mendous volume of detail which
has been mastered by the work.
ing committees listed below.
At Island Park there will be
an assemblage of about 1900
men for dinner, including the
925 Knights Templar, 275 band
men and 100 others variously
interested in the occasion. There
will be about $50 at supper at
the Augusta House and 27O at
Penney Memorial church. The
Opera House will be filled to
capacity in the evening.
