We hear that on Saturday night last
twelve pound baby was born to the wife OF
Mr. Eyerard q. Smith, and another to the life
Of Mr.. Austin II. JOY. In view OF other pro-
life results which took place the same night In
close proximity TO the births mentioned above,
we think that our friend Smith has won more
laurels, though common people may never
| hope TO equal the glory OF our friend JOY. We
| congratulate the four proud and happy par
| ents.
Mr.. Geo. II. Grant, manager Of the Els
| worth Electric Light Co., has ordered SO new
''celsH which, when added to the present
| power, will give the works capacity Of 1900
| lights. The company will for the future con-
duct their works upon ii new plan. viz: that
Of storing electricity by the use Of storage bat
| teries or accumuiators which, acting as a res
| eryoir, make the failure OF the light impossi-
| BILE under amy circumstances; for with ac-
| cumulafors the work of running the dynamo
can be done during the day and sufficient
supply OF electricity stored, as 1t were, for use
| during the night. Another great advantage Of
| the accumuator lies in the fact that by cbarg-
| ing the cells during the daytime, the continual
| noise produced by the dynamo, which neces-
sariIy runs at high speed. may be avoided dur
| ing the hours of the night. 1t is the object Of
| Mr.. Grant to make the cOmpany's works first
class In every respect.
