TIRED OF OFFICIAL LIFE.
Police Commissioner Bernard Corrigan
Tenders His Resignation to
Governor Stone.

Police Commissioner Bernard Corrigan
yesterday forwarded his resignation as
member of the police board to Governor
Stone at jefferson City. Mr.. Corrigan has
served nearly four years on the police
board. He was first appointed by Governor
David X. Francis February ., 1890. and was
reappointed by Governor Stone on May lS.
ls93 He was seen last night by Journal
reporter at his residence, No. l70l Summit
street. He said he had nothing to say
about his resignation, further than that he
had sent it to the governor, and that he
expected the governor would accept 1t
forthwith and appoint his successor. NO"
said he, II have not any idea who my sue
cessor will be. Some time ago l told the
governor that | should resign, as in addi-
ton TO the fact that my own business needs
all my time and attention, | expect TO be
absent from the city a good deal for some
time to come. No, there has been no dis
agreement between Governor Stone and
myself. / never undertook to influence or
shape his actions. nor did he ever interfere
with me in the discharge of my duties as
police commissioner. / simply resigned
because l have had all the honor there
may be attached 10 the office that ! want
and more of the work than ! cared for.
As for the police force. Kansas City has
the best force for the least cost that /
know of. We have a maximum service for
u minimum cost. our police protection in
Kansas City costs 81 per capita, while in
other cities having no better service it
costs from s1.50 to s2."

A COLD LIGHT.
Professor Ebert Means to Utilize Force In
Heat for illumination.

The recent Investigations of Professor
Ebert form an interesting sequel to the re-
searches of Tesla on the production of elec-
tric light with the minimum amount of
heat The goal, of course. is to get tho
light with no heat at all, except that which
naturally belongs to the luminous rays;
that is, to get rid of the obscure or darl,
heat altogether. Only about per cent OF
the energy expended in an incandescent
lamp Is turned into light, the remaining
20 going INTO waste heat. Prof. Ebert has
now not only deduced laws according TO
which apparatus should be made to pro-
duce cold light by means OF alternating
currents of high frequency, but he has
succeeded in obtaining a light of about one
thirteenth of a candle power with about
one-thousandth of the energy required in
one of the standard candle-power lamps.
This, of course, is very small light. but
Prof. Ebert is confident that lights Of
