Public Lighting.
As occasion has arisen during the year new circular lamps
have been fixed in lieu of the old square lanterns; the total
number of the new lamps in the District at the present time,
each consuming 5 feet of gas per hour, is 896; and of the old
square pattern lamps, 158. There are also 7 5 lamps of
larger size at the corners of certain streets and on the
crossing refuges, making a total of 1,129 public lamps in the
District belonging to the Board.
Names of Streets on Lamps.
The question of notifying the names of streets by means
of the public lamps was again before the Board, and as an
experiment 50 tablets with the street's name thereon were
affixed to the reflectors of some of the lamps in the main
thoroughfares of the District.
