Gas Consumed by the Hospital Elec-
tric-Light Plant.
When SuperintendinR Physician Frank
81. Titus Of the City and County Hospital
submits his annual report it will contain
the following interesting paragraph:
BY the order of the last Board OF Su-
pervisors an electric-light plant was in-
stalled in the hospital at cost of about
$4,000. 1t consists Of . dynamo, gas
engine and 100 sixteen.candle power lights,
which supply the executive building, the
nurses quarters and main corridor only.
While the plants in Operation-from dark
to IL P. M.-we burn per hour ninety feet
of gas less than when we used the gas
alone. During the same hours the engine
consumes 240 feet Formerly it used from
800 TO 400 feet. but our own notifications
of the machinery have reduced the
amount"
This tells its own story. The gas-engine
has full capacity of 12.horse power. As
only about seventy lights ars used, how
ever, rover equal to only 7-horse is EN-
ployed, but ic takes 1 R-horse power addi-
tional To run the machinery.
DR.. Titus thinks that a steam-engne
would be much more economical, as coal
can be secured for about IS per ton of
2240 pounds. and it is figured that four
pounds of coal are equivalent to 1-horse
power. The gas costs ST. IS per
thousand feet. To run tho little electric
light plant. as it is now conducted, costs
over 90 cents per hour, whereas it would
not cost much over 10 cents per hour were
coal-bnrnng steam-engine put in.
