Incandescent Lights on Upper Astragal from
Work Subtle TO an Indianapolis Firm.

It is quite likely the upper a~stragal of
the soldiers monument will be so con-
structed as to admit of its being illumi-
mated. Incandescent lights will have To
be used, and the effect will certainly be
very striking. President Langsdale has
just returned from Cleveland where be saw
a model of it. Mr.. Brewster has not vet
started on the model for the middle as
tragal. The commissioners desired some
changes made, which he Is not sure can be
accomplished within the time contracted
for. The contract for the ~iron-work. which
was secured by Mr.. Stree5er, of Chicago,
has been sub-let to HetheringtoI 81 Berner,
of this city. because of labor troubles
in the Chicago mans manufae-
tory. The commissioners are well
pleased that an indianapolis firm
Is to do the work. because there Is less liza
bility of delay. aud any mistake can easily
md quickly be remedieG. Mr.. L%an9sdale
hopes to be in readiness within another
month to send ont his specifications for the
competition for the side groups at the base
of the monument, the most elaborate Of all
