THE Stewart lamp is one of the latest
novelties in the electric light regulat-
ors. A carbon rod of considerable
length descends vertically through the
center of metal tube formed into the
shape of ring, piece of insulated
carbon placed beneath the carbon rod
preventing the latter from falling. The
electric arc is formed between the in
side edge of the ring electrode and the
lower end of the carbon rod. There is
a 1ow of water through the metal tubes
to keep the latter cool. The lamp is
lighted by an electro-magnet bringing
the metal electrode momentarily into
contact with the carbon rod. This lamp
is said to burn long time without any
attention.
