A Great Mans ExDerience.

Russell Harrison had an odd experience
the other day with a messenger boy, writes
Ben Abou in the N. Y. Press. He was 90
ing on the afternoon train to Cape Nav
Point. 1t was raining very hard, and he
called a messenger to take his satchel to
Desbrosses Street Ferry. The lad who
answered the cali was a veritable small boy
as to his size, and a genuine street Arab in
.toughness. He had on o rubber coat three
sizes too large for him, from which the
water was dripping, when he presented
himself for orders, on the reception of
which he asked: "ShalI l ride, mister p,
With the intention of joking the lad Mr..
Harrison replied abruptly mo, walk"
Inc little fellow made no move to take up
the satchel, but looking squarely in
Mr.. Harrison's face exclaimed: .,sav
young fellow, do you know it
is raining like h-l?" Mr.. Harrison ten
dered him a ten-cent piece to demonstrate
the TACT that he could ride. AS he went for
the colored porter at the door that indi-
vldual asked the boy if he knew to whom
ne had been talking. THAT was the son
of the president" said the porter. The lad
snatched up the bag and went down the
stairs three at a time, saying: Gee whiz.

AN ELECTRICAL DISCOVERY.

10 the gathering of electricians re-
Gently met in Columbia college, New
York, there fell a singular piece of good
fortune. 1t was their privilege to listen
to Mr.. Nikola Tesla, as he described for
their benefit the greatest forward stride
made in electrical science since the in
v%ention of the dynamo. For three hours
the inventor held his deeply interested
audience, and European scientists are
already clamoring for fuller details than
the cable has given them. 1t is only
four or five years since the young cleo
trician came to this country from the
Austro- Hungarian frontier, and began
to attract attention by discoveries that
dealt with the use of alternating our
rents for motive power.
His latest triumph is the outcome of
careful research and patient study. Fol
lowing the lines of Crookes, Lodge and
Heartz, he has completely surpassed
them in his grasp of the electro-mag-
netic theory of light. In his hand the
alternating current has become suscep-
tible Of vastly increased development.
When Tesla began his Investigations,
the current could be made to alternate
from 100 to 200 times a second. In
creased vibration, he argued, would
mean increased results. His first ma
chine leapt to 10000 vibrations a second,
and the results fully justified his theory.
"A second series of experiments gave
him $4,000 vibrations a second,
and at last with an apparatus, that is as
simple az it is ingenious, he obtained a
current with a rate of vibration amount
ing to millions in a single second.
The discovery mean an entire reyolu-
ton in our present methods OF lighting.
All wires in direct connection with
lamps may be done away with. IL it is
desired to light a room, it will simply be
necessary hereafter to bring the wires
from the central station into connection
with two large sheets of metal, one on
each side. Or metallic wall paper will
serve the purpose equally well. Through
the induction thus produced, Tesla's
discovery will light up properly ex-
hausted glass tubes, which can then be
moved with all the facility Of an oil
lamp. Who invented the carbon fila
ment is at present q matter before the
courts. Tesla's invention promises to
make the litigation a severely unproita-
bic one, Il emphasizes the often re-
peated statement hat electrical science
is still in it's infancy. What it may vet
