Electric Light Commissioner Win-
chester, who was soleotedby the special
investigating committee on commercial
electrlolightiuir for South Norwulk to
fobtain information on the subject, has
submitted the result of his investigations,
ondthe report is printed in full in The
Electrical Engineer. ' ~

commitm. composed of Stephen 8.

'bert E. Winchester. Electric Light Com~
missioners, who were appointed ‘ by
Mayor Mortimer M. Lee and the
Dominon eunucil in response to a strong
petition from the citizens of South Nor-
wnlk, urging that commercial electric
,. ’ lights be supplied from the city’s exist-
" int: municipal electric street lighting
plant, which has been operating under a
high degree of success and economy for ‘
several years.

Ml‘. Winchester gave the subject a
melt searching and prolonged study.
Blanks were sent out, asking for infor-_
motion touching all details of plants,
their operation and their results, and
infonnation was gleaned from. every
source that reached his notion, including
an extensive correspondence with
mayors and public oilicinls of cities
having municipal plants. Pull“ the
answers to his queries. Mr. Winchester
quotes such facts aswill convey a fair
idea of the merits and demerits of the
subject under consideration from the
most reliable sources of information, the
results of actual experience. -

A preliminary canvass of the probable
commercial lighting territory of South
Norwalk was made, and it was found
that a-conxmercial plant having a cape.
city of about 2.0130 “Maudie-power
lamps would hoof the proper sin.- to meet
the probable demand at present, and
that it could be erected in the space pro-
vided for such purpose in the building of
the city's electric works, without any
exmusive alterations. to the present plant
and but few other changes.
The present city pulm would be of snillci-
out size, except in a few instiurzcs, for
Ill udditionalelcctricnl conductors that
would be necessary. After 1' lrul‘ully
considering the various systolic in use
for generating and supplying ol-vctric

Rip Van Winklr‘.

Washiimton lrving nevi-r gave to the
world of letters a more beautiful thing
than Rip Van Winlilc. Irving has long
since pawed into the world of spirits,but
the story lived and deserved to bollrannb
tized. The story is novvr inspired. it
begins in the Hudson valley, famous in
poetry and “story. The Catskill mount-
ainsnre the background, and Rip Van
Winkle is he ndcd down tons in martial
humor as the hero. He was beloved of
the village wives and children, but a
jealous wife~ could not see his virtues.
and, like many nun before and since,
failing to receive kind words at home,
he drowned histruuhlos in the flowing
bowl. Among the many untrue, Schnei-
der, his dog, was true; he didn’t scold——
an odd hon:- and the companionship of
his master was all he asked. it was nat—
ural that when liip Van Winkle wand-
cml oil into the mountains that Schnei-
der should follow him. Whethvr libey
found odd farii-s at nine-pins.or whither
