TURNS NIGHT INTO DAY
At CHICAGO BALL PARK
New Lights on American League
Grounds May Prove Com
plete Success

CHICAGO, Aug Exchanging night
into day was enacted last night at the
new American lea que baseball grounds,
and proved novel demonstration.
Electricians fairly swarmed around
the park throughout the evening, and
ten powerful lights, representing ,000-
600 candlepower, were turned on, with
the result that night became as day
under their powerful glare.
The full force or the lighting plant
was not turned on, owing TO the in
completeness of the apparatus, only
half of the twenty lamps being in SER
vice. The lamps are operated i'm pairs
Ten Of them are on the roof of the
park, while like number are operated
from the ground.
The first actual attempt TO put the
lighting plant into practical use will be
made Thursday, when the Chicago La
crosse league viii open its session with
the Illinois Athletic club team. Should
the experiment prove successful, the
first baseball match will be played Sat-
