EDISON'S ELECTRICITY.
The Illumination of MentO Park POSTPONED
-An IsaterrtesU tritt the Wizard.

-An Interview ,rttI the Wizard.
New York Special, Dec. 81.
There will be no immediate general illumi-
ton of Menlo parks dozen houses by Mr.. Ed
ison's electric light. He has not lamps enough
made, although ten or twelve are added every
night, and put in operation. This evening be
tween sixty and seventy are burning-in the
laboratory, in the street lamps, and in two
neighbors' houses.
Edison is preparing to light 500 lamps.
Lamp posts are being erected at every availa-
BILE point, and the copper wires which are to
convey the electricity are being stretched
along the sidewalks, and connected with the
houses. The lamp-posts are of hollow iron,
painted white and surrounded by an oval of
glass, in which the carbon lamp is inclosed.
The wires pass up the hollow post and connect
with the lamp. Only three of these lamps are
yet burning-two in front of MIR. Edison's Of
tce and one in front of his house. These are
kept in a canceseent night and day, with q
view to testing the fusibility of the carbon
hOrse-shoes.
One generator only is in operation, and it is
hard pushed, for it should light, ordinarily,
only forty lamps. He requires nineteen more
before he can light the 500 lamps and which
he estimates that his eng inc will supply.
As each generator is completed he will add
to the number of his lamps. and thus, In
time, Menlo Park will be thoroughly illumin-
ated. When this will be, the inventor himself
is unable to say. In the mean time, all Wis
itors are made heartily welcome at the labora-
tory, and every facility is offered for the inves-
tigation of the-new electric light.
To one of his visitors Edison said to-day:
There you see the light as We have had it
burning for twenty-one days." pointing to the
chandelier, in which were eight glass bulbs
about the size of an egg, one attached appa-
rently to each gas burner. Inside of each bulb
was an incandescent thread in the shape
horseshoe. The light given out was about
equal to that of three-foot gas-burner.
"You gentlemen of the press usually come
here with dozen or so of newspaper
articles proving that the lamp can not burn,
and that if it does it can not last more than
twenty minutes, and that if it
does last more than twenty minutes the idea
is stolen from some one else. There are lamps
that have been burning night and day, with
about five INMATES stoppage, owing to an ac-
cident to the generate. G machinery, for
twenty-one days. As the Average use of a
gas burner, even in winter. is not more than
six hours day, this represents a service Of
about three months ordinary usage. We
have invited our detractors and critics to come
and see what we have done, but they will not
come contenting themselves with letters to
newspapers demonstrating the impossibility of
our success.
