IMrRovED METHOD or LIGHTING CHURCHES.
The following now method, and, apparently an
sR aRfsR sav int D hc
lette, and Is given by morning contemporary,
the apparatus used being Frink's patent reflect
orst
6ThIs invention, for lighting public halls, is
OF recent date, there being, we are informed, but
one church as yet lit In this manner, and this 10
the place OF worship in brooklyn, New YORK,
Of which Rev. Henry Ward Beecher Is pastor.
The lighting arrangement or reflector is QotaBon
shape, about twelve feet In diameter. 1t is COM
posed of plates OF prepared glass OF great re-
fective power. In the centre OF the reflector
appears the gas-drop, to which is appended q
hanging circle of thirty-six burners. The circle
is about three feet In diameter. There are two
of these refectors placed In the ceiling, about
thirty feet apart, and the result is that every
portion Of the audience-room Of the church is
beautifully Illuminated. The lights are placed
so near the ceiling as not to affect the eyes Of
either the speaker or the audience, and yet II
shines down with such = mellow glow that the
smallest print can be read with great ease. This
arrangement IL the patent of Mr.. Frink, OF New
York, and the work OF placing II in position has
been done by Messrs. Alex. X, Shepherd Bros,
who, we hear, have purchased the right to con-
struct them In this vicinity. The advantage to
be derived from this mode Of Illuminating large
audience halls are chcapness, an equal and full
distribution of light, and a concentration OF
the burners, which Is great item In lighting up
q large room. We predict that this invention
will be placed In many Of our churches, now so
badly lighted by the side brackets or centre and
aisle chandeliers"
