NORMANSVILLE.

The new boulevard as well as the viaduct which are nearing completion south of here, attracted a large number of people of the capital city Sunday. The viaduct spans the Normanskill creek and the road connects the Delaware turnpike with the old stone road to South Bethlehem. The viaduct was crowded with people as Sunday was one of the first fine days of the season. Many pictures of the new span were taken and the scenes thereabouts were very picturesque, as the D. & H. railroad passes underneath, as well as the Normanskill creek.
