GAS FITTING In THE CAPITOL BUILD.

ING.-Workmen are busily engaged in
putting up the necessary gas fixtures
in the Capitol building. When the
work is completed, there will be about
one hundred and twenty-five burners
in position in different parts of the
building; each room and the halls
throughout the structure is to be
lighted with gas. The Senate and AS
sembly Chambers, each, is provided
with a chandelier in the center of the
room, containing twelve burners
making twenty-four. The chandelier
in the Library is a uniquely constructed
arrangement, and what We will name
in the absence of the proper one-an
iron bronZed skeleton" with five
burners. Altogether, the light will be
found far superior to the old oil lamps,
n will serve a great convenience and
economy to Senatorial aspirants, during
the session Of the Legislature, as it can
be purchased of the Gas Company for
a much less price than hat usually
paid on such occasions to members
and lobbyists. The gas to be used in
the building is that known as the
Maxim Gas, furnished by the Maxim
Gas Company of Carson.
