MAY BE NEEDED By THE GovEENMENT
ALONG TIE BROOKLYN SHORE
Royal C. Peabody. secretary OF the Edison r''ee-
,ric Illuminating Company. at no S'~ fsd''-S'''
Brooklyn says that his company could within
twenty-rour hours furnish 20 the Government
Illuminating power FOR many s@archlieas as II
would be likely 10 need along the Brooklyn water
from. IN order 20 keep the Lower Bay illuminated az
night time n the boats OF enemy were trying 10
enter the harbor. The Secretary - War has COM
munlcated with Captain Griffin. vic--presdent or
the General Electric Company. asking what could
be done by the Illuminating companies OF New
York by way OF supplying and main aining search
lights While M Peabody has not corresponded
directly with the authorities al Washington. he has
heard from Captain Grimm OF the correspondence
Of Secretary Alger.
Mr. Peabody does not expect that the Govern
ment will have any need OF the searchiigats. but
he said that his company was prepared to furnish
whatever power might be needed In case the ne
cessliy for senrchlights In the hnrbor arose. the
points at which they would be placed are Sandy
Hook Coney Island. Fort Hamilton. Fort Lafayette
and Fort Wadswcrth. and Plum lsant. near tho
Oriental Hotel at Coney Island. The Edison Com
pany Of Brooklyn could supply the power FOR the
points IN Brooklyn. and could also connect with
Governors Island by means OF a cable and place
The company could furnish the lamps for the
eearchlghfs II necessary. as wei as supply the
mower ana Il would need only twenty-four hours
Tor the work Its wires now run TO coney Island:
Manhattan Rcacn and Fort Hamilton. and II would
be easy 10 make the connection at those points.
The lamps used would be 10000 or 800 900 candle
power Tho current needed AT Sandy Hook would
probably be furnished by the Atlantic Highlands
Company Electrical experts say that these power
ful searchiighis stationed ~ the points mentioned
~ worked according 10 prearrarged plan, could
easily cover tle Lower Bay In such manner that
no hostile craft no matter how small. could creep
up tne bay and into the harbor. They would be

The Mena star., 1898-07-13
NOW FOR WATER WORKS.

Now, that Mena has secured the county seat and will soon com mence the erection of a court house, and has also secured the Mena College, now under con- struction, together with two ex- tensive new lumber manufacturing institutions, we should not rest until we have a good system of water works.
 The destruction of Mir. Pryor's mercantile establishment Friday night serves as an object lesson of unusual light and heat, showing the great donger we are in and the necessity of some protection from fire.
 Upon this point action cannot be taken too quickly, so that the action be along careful and intel ligent lines.
