We are glad tn see that our
friend and former citizen of Lump
kin county, Mr. J. R. Ariendale,
now of Missouri, is interested in
an enterprise that means many
thousand of dollars to him. It is a
new gas light invented by a Si.
J,ouis gentleman, being a mixture
of gasoline and air which produces
revolutionary means of illuminat
ing. A syndicate of New York,
Chicago and St. Louis capitalists
has just formed a $10,000,000
company. This lighting and heat
ing system, has stood every test
of efficiency, safety and ccotaemy
by the number of plants installed
throughout the country. This
growing commercial proposition
covers a field of operation as wide
as the United States, Canada,'
Mexico, Great Britain, France and
Belgium. The name of the new
company is “The Federal Gas
Company.”
