SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 27,341, dated July 13, 1897. Application filed June 15, 1897. Serial No. 640,928. Term of patent 14 years.

To all whom it may concern:     Be it known that I, JAMES G. PENNYCUICK, citizen of the Dominion of Canada, residing at Toronto, in the county of York and Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented and produced a certain new and useful Design for Prism-Plates, of which the following is a description.     My invention is related to a design for prism-plates.     It is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein--     Figure 1 is an elevation of a prism-plate, looking towards the prism side. Fig. 2 is a section therethrough.     Like parts are indicated by the same letter in all the figures.     A is a surrounding frame; B B and C C, the parts which form the inner net, grid or frame.

The prism-lights D D are composed each of a body with prisms E E thereon. There prism-lights are substantially square or rectangular, and the prisms are arranged thereon substantially as indicated, being practically horizontal to the transverse or horizontal axes of the prism-light.     I have shown a certain size and arrangement of the several parts and of the prisms of on the light; but the essential feature of my invention is a single complete plate composed of prism-lights with diagonally-arranged inner frame-pieces, the prisms placed horizontally.     I claim--     The design for a prism-plate substantially as shown and described. JAMES G. PENNYCUICK. Witnesses:     LOUIE HARDING,     F. N. BARRETT.
