u' i ni Accept Proposition. At a special meeting last evening the city council passed a resolution accepting the proposition for street lightiug submitted by the North Platte Electric Light, Power and Heat Co. This proposition is that the company will furnish the city with ninety thirty-two candle power incandescent lights and accept in payment therefore the revenue accruing from the five mill levy, which if fully paid in would amount to about $1,580 per year. In addition the company agrees to donate one arc light free of charge. This proposition was accepted for one year.

If, however, the council prefers to substitute arc lights for incan descent lights, it can do so on the basis of fiye of the latter for one of the former, iu other words the city can take ninety iiicandcsccnts, or eighteen arcs, or it can diyidc between the two as it thinks best. The kinds of light and the location of the same will be considered by the Council later. The company agrees to place the lights at points within the city limits designated by the council. This is certainly a fair proposition, a ntl the city by accepting it is getting very cheap light. If all arc lights were taken the cost per light would be but eighty seven dollars per year.

By using this amount of light whether arc or incandescent or both, the city will be well lighted from one end to the other. One thing that will add to the brilliancy ot the lighting will be the fiye arc lights which the Union Pacific will string along the yards on thirty-foot poles, the re flection of which will light the streets on cither side of the yards. Within the next week work will be actiycly pushed. Two carloads of machinery were shipped from Denver yesterday and another will be shipped Thuasday. As soon as the brick and lumber arrives the power house will be built.

Supt. Walker says that barring unlookcd for delay, the company will be furnishing light to the Union Pa cific the first week in October, and that other patrons will be supplied as quickly thereafter as the wires can be stating. The machinery to be put in will be ot such capacity as to furnish a superabundance of power, thus insuring good service at all times, Commissioner Convention.

Indiana Take Moro Scalim. In Mhe game of ball yesterday afternoon the Cheyenne Iudiaup again scalped the Union Pacifies by a score of eight to seven in a ten iuuing game. Taken as a whole the game waa fairly well played, but was lost to the Union PacificB by three wild throws which were practically responsible for six of the eight runs made by the Indians. In the last ball of the seventh inning when the score was a tie, the Indians took Green out of the box and put iu Glaze their crack pitcher, olf of whom the Union Pacifict-j only made one base hit, though they succeeded in getting twelve off of Green, two of which were three baggers.

Redmond occupied the box for the Union Pacifies aud was touched up for twelve hits, but struck nine men out. The two Cheyenne pitchers also struck out nine.
