In the theaters of Omaha, out front and in behind, under the
stage and aloft in the flies and bridges, are approximately 5000
lights. Many are concealed from sight, merely limiting their pres

Diogenes went out with his ancient lantern in the daytime or
in the night hours. Neither is the conclusion of his search for

Athenian codger had been provided with a portable light in a
small glass bulb he would at least have been saved considerable
trouble and WEAKNESS of soul. Given the lighting conditions existing
today, Diog. would have been able to find many an honest man
lin Omaha, at least. This is said advisedly; for, If we cut out

is about to make its debut in Omaha. 1t will be seen first, prob
ably, on the 800 Ginger block" between Howard and Jackson
streets. 1t is a plan that has become very popular in St Paul, Min
neapoHs and some other cities, and will very likely be as popular
in Omaha as it has proved elsewhere. This plan contemplates or
namental iron poles with clusters of large lights on top, three or
four to a block.
When first brought into use, something like a quarter of a CEN
fury ago, the incandescent globe contained a bamboo stick, very
highly carbonized. That was the first carbon flament. In the
tungsten light of today, as seen in many places in Omaha, the fila
ment is a very decided contrast to this first material. 1t is a metal

Moving pictures,

one could swear are
talking hard and fast,
in a misty language
unheard by any but the
fairies of the queen of

contrivances are re-
spending to the COM
mand of the switch or
button that Tipped
over, pressed or re-
leased, with instant re-
suit. Outside the same
power thrills through
wires and bulbs ex-
posed to rain, snow,
cold and heat with an
impunity not to be at
tempted by any other
agency we wot of. The
street is electricity's
playground for large
frolics; the theater is
chosen setting for es-
thetic demonstration of
artists dreams.
There are a hundred
and one schemes or
methods used in pro-
Omaha daily bee., 1909-05-02

ustic use of lights for ornamentaton was, of course, practtced to
some extent from the earliest ages, IN a way that satisfied the
very slightly developed wants in that direction of the rushhght
generations. Today we find architects giving evidence of their
beauty-imbued souls by the cleverest use of lights to bring out
wall and ceiling tones, or to make a plaster or an esthetic
Granny give the effect it was planned to have. SO, in most mod
en buildings we find utility possibly secondary to ornamental
ton: and architectural illumination holding the admiring mind,
while we momentarny forget that there are any merely utfh-
tartan reasons for so much light sui %
Animated lights, too-revoTng, alternating, playing a dozen
tricks with the eye-haye become so common that we are half the
time unconscious of them, though gazing on them nightly. 1t is
conservatiVely estimated that something in the neighborhood of
10000 electric lights II used in Omaha street signs, as decorations
for buildings, and for what may be called purely advertising pur-
poses. Shortly there will be added several thousand more, because
be enlarged.
For interior lighting of Omaha business places of all kinds
the number OF arcs and incandescents run over 10.000, with more
being added every day in new stores and factories, and in rebuilt
and enlarged buildings. Only one large store in Omaha makes its
own electric light. Theaters and lodges, saloons, ball rooms, hotel
lobbhs-these and other similar places where folk gather in large
glories. are ever adding something to their lighting bill. Emula-
ton of fetching effects, competition for public attention, are the
impelling causes; and the general community gets in on the bene-
fit and the beauty, while the proprietors gain in their feeling of
personal satisfaction, and the electric light company has more
business.
Speaking Of the electric light company, it has grown with the
city perhaps more evenly than any other quasi-public concern. One
man connected with the company said: THE whole institution
could have been put in a mighty small space when we started. At
power. while today we have to 49, continually over 9,OOO-horse
power to keep up with the demand
The same man pointed out that in twenty years there has been
brought about a reduction in cost of electricity of probably better
than so per cent. This reduction in cost largely accounts for the
vastly increased utilization of the commodity the company sells.
Stretched out as it is. the copper cable and wire used to carry
current and hold lights in Omaha covers a great many hundred
miles. 1t carries death In every foot of its length daily and hourly,
yet is one of mans greatest servants night and day. By a twist
of a button, or a push of the finger, presto!-there is light, power,
heat, lifting impulse; dead things throb and jump. Mysterious,
puzzling, underlined, the genii of the electric bulb is the most power
full, yet the tamest. of modern mechanical aids to life and comfort.
Spectacular street lighting, as distinguished from street signs,

stead, there is a progressive de-
velopment OF the lighting feature,
not only in signs, but in purely
artistic effects. An architect plans
a central feature, let us say,
picked out in white and gold, with
oceans of chance for decoration.
During the brightness of un-
dimmed daylight each little beauty
stot can be zen and will call out
the admiration It was designed to
tempt. But as twilight draws
near. or on a dark, dreary day, the
lighting switches are all on, and
r CHEEKY, soulful atmosphere is at
once created. Such a scene is not
likely to be quilted very quickly
for a muddy, misty outdoors.
Verify, light shining on beautiful,
shimmering goods in n big store
does help wonderfully in strength
ening trade. Still, 1t would be UNI
fair to speak of the generousness
of store lighting plans as having
no greater basis than momentary
citation of the customer. There

is put, merely for furnishing light.

time for GINNING tricks, too tired
by honeft labor to give ~rascality
a thought.
If it is true that treason and
evil thrive best in darkness,
Omaha ought TO be, as It is, as
free as any mans town from the
blights that thrive In the dark.
The city is well lighted, except,
possibly, in far outlying districts.
Street, store, basement, humble
home, palace, front, cornice and
dome-the witchery of Edison's
puzzle and p%laything is over all
and Frightening life immensely.
II has become, in an especially
large sense, the handmade of mod
ern business; and art, aloof and
dignifed, scorns not its illumi-
mating aid.
AS an arc light is to a tallow
dip, SO is the store lighting of to-
day compared to the store lighting
of twenty-five, or even twenty,
years ago. And as the boys bon
FIRE is to a skyscraping coniagra-
tion, so was the ornamental light
ing of that day compared to what
is accomplished now without at
tracing any attention to speak of.
Village street lamps today give a
true picture of what illumination
OF the highways amounted to in
the days of our fathers; and what
a contrast are the elevated CLEANS
that fling their effulgence for two
blocks in either direction.
Utility is the first consideration

H. b. Lee, the millionaire whole

services. Two weeks ago he went
to Excelsior Springs in his new Pack

to tour the country roads about the
health resort.

Now that action opened up q ID

Excelsior Springs at the Milwaukee
depot ana going past the James farm,
returns to the Springs By way Of
what is known as the old salt well.
1t also affords another good highway
between Kansas City and Excelsior
Springs.
AFTER that trip / took my repair
crew and tools with me. We made
many repairs in the roads near the
Springs and over the various routes
between Kansas city and the Springs.
