The 6troet lights were all in readiness, and a little while after the sun had gone down, the current was turned in and the illumination began. It had been the intention to celebrate the event, but owing to the uncertainty of just when the connections would all be completed, no set preparations were made. People turned out on the streets and viewed the lights. A bonfire was! built, and the Bird band was out to make music. It was the verdict of all that tin street lights were a big im provement ovur the "dark-town" era, and thai they would prove a great con venience to everybody. Maitland Herald. AUCTION!
