What Next +?

Nicholas Tesla, a youBg Hungarian Of
fortune, who has devoted himself to the
study of electricity and has been working
for some years in EdisoDs laboratory, has
startled scientific men by advancing and
apparently maintaining the most original
and revolutionary views as to the nature
of electricity. Before learned audience
in the hall of the Franklin Institute, Phil
adelphia, Pa, on February "a, Tesla is said
to have deliberately allowed a current Of
two hundred thousand volts to pass through
his body without apparent discomfort and
illuminate bulb which he held containing
sulphate of calcium. Ten thousand volts
has heretofore been considered something
remarkable, but Tesla claims to have Sc
cured three million vibrations second and
seems to have found the secret of safely
handling this prodigious power, His Phil
adelphia display seems to have been con-
Quoted mainly with a view to arresting
attention, as he did not offer any explana-
ton of his methods or discoveries although
he has made brief statements of his theory.
He believes that the earth is filed with
capability Of electrical vibration, and
that the only problem is to awaken this
force. At Niagara, he says. enough force
can be secured TO start an earth vibration
that will give force enough to supply the
needs ef the human race twice over. To
use this force machines may be built to
catch and respond to the earth's motion.
On this principle he has built machises for
his experiments, and he claims that ma,
chine constructed in the same way, can
transmit message through the earth with
out the aid of wires, SO that it may be read
at Paris or Hong Kong. "If lean not do
1t am willing to lay my head on the gull
lotine, said Tesla.
"There would have to be a synchronism
between the electrical swinging of the earth
and the machine. For example, hold a
glass to my mouth and speak; the glass is
shattered. My voice, to do this, must
have the same resonance as the glass.
Such 1 conceive to be the secret of all
nature = resonance. The electrical ma
chimes must. therefore, be iu harmony with
the tune of the earth's electricity
DR.. Wahl, secretary Of Franklin Insti-
tute, says that too much can not be said of
Tesla's genius, and that he has distanced
all the electricians. aWhy, when he was
experimenting with some of his high cur
rents the very air around was polarized and
glowed. The whole room seemed to be
illuminated, lamps not in circuit we're made
ipcaudescent by sylapathy, and in the
midst of it all stood Tesla like demon or
wierd magician.
There is not likely to be any humbug
about man who so boldly challenges the
scrutiny Of a scientific body like the Frank
lin Institute, and if his theories are correctly
reported we are on the verge Of new and
amazing disclosures Of facts and forces
uudreamed Of and destined 70 make the
telephone and telegraph ard other marvelH
Of the age pale into iusigni6cauce

Island cave-Dwellers.
pOrt Townsend. wash. can.

fOrt 1ONDSenQ. MaSn Gall.
Ben f. Miller, a Port Townsend boy
who was on the United States steamer
Bear during her recent eight months cruise
in the northern seas, has many tales to re-
late of his adventures and the sights he
has seen. Among other things he tells of
the Bears visit to Kings Island, in Bering
Strait, thirty miles off Port Clarence and
the shores of Alaska, where there are
about 200 of the most curious islanders
that ever were seen. The island or rock
they inhabit is about half mile wide and
little more than that distance long, and
the islanders are cave-dwellers and live on
whale blubber, seal and walrus meat.
On the southeast side, closely nesting
against the cliff, is village of the cave
dwellers. One abode is built over and
under the other, and to the right and left,
giving them strange, motley appearance,
not unlike the recesses inhabited by bald
eagles. There are narrow caves excavated
into the side of the crumbling volcanic
rock, and in the bottom of each is some of
the short native grass, forming bed on
which to sleep. At the mouth of the cave
and just in the interior fires are kindled,
and here they warm themselves in the win
ter. Skins of different kinds are also sus-
pended outside to keep out the snow and
cold. In the summer the hardy natives
leave their holes and live in odd houses
made of poles constructed near at hand on
the edge of the cliff.
These strange people are usually as
strong and vigorous as can be found any
where. Moreover, they are entirely con-
tented and as happy as people in any Of
the great cities of America. They have
no government, no chief, and no need of
laws. Living in families and setting forth
every day in their kiaks for the whale,
seal, and walrus, they return each night to
their caves or pole tents caring nothing
for the outside world
Odd to relate, however, prestige of the
native is determined by the clothes he
wears. As these consist of skins and con-
stitute the wealth Of the islanders, it will
be seen that they are not in this respect SO
much unlike civilized people. But the
man with more clothes than anybody else
has no more authority. He is respected
for his sagacity, but that is ALL
Little has been known of the islanders
hitherto. For great many years after
the whalers had been going to Bering
Straits and the great Mackenzie it was sup
posed the huge brown rock was uninhabit-
ed, 1t was like beacon in the sea, and
about it nothing was to be seen nor heard
except the roar of the waves and the weird
cries of the wild fowl Finally some one
discerned smoke ascending from the other
side of the cliff. A landing was made and
there the islanders were found. They
said they and their foresathers had been
there always and that they knew no other
world, though they had heard that there
was one. This was only dozen years ago.
Since then the whalers have kept an eye
out for them, for they liked the generous
natives, who showed many good traits.

The morning call., 1893-04-15
AMONG THE DEBRIS.

THE CALLS special Washington corre-
spondent says:
The President further says trat he would be
obliged to construe the act Chinese registration
ac) as found in connection with the Chinese
treaty which accOTds to the Chinese resident In
this country the same privileges and immunltes
That are accorded 10 the citizens of the most
favored nations, and as citizens of no other ma
ton are required 10 have their photographs
taken and attached 10 certificates OF registration
the executive department OF The Government
would seem 10 have no right to compel Chinese
subjects TO comply with such a rule in the abb
sence of positive legislation conflicting with
that portion Of the treaty.
Mr.. Cleveland has stated the position the
Chinese will take in arguing the question
of the constitutionality of the registration
act. They propose to stand upon their
treaty rights. In 1888, when Mr.. Cleveland
was candidate for President he threw the
whole force Of his influence as the execu-
tive in favor Of law which denied TO Chi
nese the right to 90 and come as secured in
the treaty. he now quibbles on the point
that the act OF 1888 was an expression of the
will Of the people by Congress while the
photograph requirement is purely executive.
But the act requiring the Chinese to register
is an act OF Congress. The Photograph re-
quirement is simply means of identifica-
ton. The act requires positive Identified
tion and the Treasury Department con-
sidered attaching photographs 10 the certi-
fcates the most positive Identification tha:
could be devised. The President raises the
method of enforcing the act above the act.
Congress declared that the act should be
enforced and directed the Treasury Depart
ment 10 devise means TO that end Mr..
Cleveland's talk shows the drift of things.
The Chinese registration act and the Ha-
waiian Islands treaty Will probably be found
among the debris of Cleveand's second
administration.
