any Unlit over runilMiert In this city.
The new lamp has many new features,
flilef iimont,' them are: Increased
caudle power, r?reat brilliancy, perfect
distribution nf light und freedom from
shadows and llloUerlriK, which have
heretofote been noticeable In the old
lamps. The efforts of the elci'lilc llKht
conipuny, who are similnfr no e.xpenst
