Rockville Street Lamps.
The Rockville town council has just re-
ceived consignment Of incandescent vapor
gas lamps for use in lighting the streets.
Rockville has been without street lights
Of any description ever since the destruc-
ton of the electric plant several months
ago. Several schemes were suggested
whereby the town could again be provided
with electric lights, but the finances were
found to be in no shape to permit or the
necessary outlay. The decision to purchase
the lamps mentioned was reached in def
erence to a petition of citizens asking that
street lights of some kind be provided
Several of the new lighA have been on
trial here for the past week, and, it is said,
have proved to be highly satisfactory.
They are of one-hundred candle power
each, and in point of brilliancy are be-
Iieved to be a decided improvement over
the electric lights formerly in use. 1t is
understood the cost of maintaining the
new lights will be not more than one-third
of the expense of running the electric
light plant.
