New Arc Llaht System.

1t will be good news to the peo-
pie Of this city, who have not been
satisfied with the service of our
electric light company to learn
that said company is installing an
entirely new arc light system,
known as the Wood Arc Light of
1900 candle power, replacing two
dynamos and 25 arcs at a cost of
some $25O0, besides adding new
l50-horse power boiler. The ma
ohinery for these improvements is
now arriving and will be installed
in time for service before the
Fair, when the number of arc
lights in the city will be increased
to SO or more, owing to the fact
that the price of the new light is
S3 as against SIS for the old light.
This self sacrifice on the part of
this local company to meet the de-
mands of the general public is
something that should call for a
response in increased patronage
from the public in general and the
merchants of this city in parti-
cular.--News.

pcnses are so heavy that donation day
