NEW ELECTRIC GENERATOR.

Nicola Tesla, the inventor and scientist,
whose researches in the field of high-tensiun
electricity have developed startling pos
SihlitlcS within the past three or four years
is now reported to have evolved new
machine to he called an Oscillation" which
is expected to reduce by onc-half the cost
Of electric force 1t is described as using
the highest steam prcSsurcs and converting
their energy directly into electricity. In
the steam engine, which is of simple and
cheap construction, " the piston action
directly eNctes the magnets, which in turn
control the very rapid vibration of the
piston. and electric current is produced in
quantity varying with the power of the
machine without any of the losses by fric-
ton and radiation incidental to the exist
ing methods of combining the steam
engine and the electric dynamo.
The current thus obtained is available
for conversion into heat, light, or motion,
like that obtained from the ordinary dyna-
mo, which appears to be entirely dispensed
with in the new generating apparatus If
the claims put forth on behalf of Mr..
Tesla's new invention be maintained, we
are on the verge of a new electrical
revolution.

A NIGHT ON A FUNNEL TOP.

The steamship Union, having on board
a surveying and exploring party, recently
sank in ten feet of water at the Chinde
mouth of the Xambcsi 4 correspondent

passengers, and he thus describes his
experience:
captain Carr and made bolt for the
top of the funnel. | was nearly carried
away by the first breaker that came on
board after she sank, but managed Just in
time to get on to the gratin" on top Of the
boiler and grasp the exhaust steam pipe.
Just as | did so my legs We're carried out
on Il level with my head. like the tail of
horse in a strong wind. The breaker,
passing me, rushed aft. and swept the rest
of the people, with the exception of four
black boys, into the sea ON my following
Captain Carr to the top of the funnel,
Captain Borthwick, who had managed to
cling to a ventilntor, took my position at
the exhaust steam pipe where he was
partially sheltered by the funnel Evcntu-
ally, he and the black boys had to come up
to the top of the funnel ON account of the
tide rising, and there we sat in the most
miserable plight that ever fell to the lot of
man. This was at two O'Clock. All that
afternoon we anXiously scanned the en-
trance to the river, some two and a-half
miles distant for signs of help We saw
boat come partly out of the river but it
had to 90 back, being unable to stem the
tide.
Toward 10 p. m. the tide had cbbed
sufficiently to give us Il short respite and
we managed to crawl down on to the
remains of the bridge. There we lay down
shivering, until about half-past twelve.
We then got up, and managed to string
two lines across the top of the funnel, and
made them fast ON either side in such a
way to make two loops that hung down
into the top of the funnel about two
feet. This gave us somewhat of a rest for
our feet while sitting upon the funnel top
at is needless to say that from the first
strcaks of dawn, we were Straining our ewes

we caught sight of a small steamer making
her way slowly out towards us They came
as close as they dare, and hove lifc-huoy
