An ImpOster Poses as a Public
BenefaCtOr.

Have you heard of that heroic
tramp who was shot by highway
men because he discovered their plot
to blow up passenger train with
dynamite, and thus prevented them
from robbing the train and passen-
gers on the b. Il o. Southwestern
Road, near Washington, Ind, on Nov,
10? That tramp now confesses that
he and his companions arranged the
scheme. No doubt he expected to make
himself hero and public benefac-
tor, and as compensation receive a
liberal purse contributed by the pas
sengers, thankful that their lives had
been saved by this man who had
risked his own lite.

ONE GREAT DISCOVERY
Follows An0ther-Read and Keep
Posted.

The advance in medical science is
greater than in any other branch. The
discovery of the \ rays and the find
ing of malaria in the blood by analy-
sis are the most recent discoveries, but
not the greatest by any means. The
discovery of remedy or medicine
that will instantly bring relief to al
most any form of disease we think is
beyond conception. A remedy that
does not require hours and hours OF
patience and pain before relief comes
has been discovered. Pooh you say.
Would you have believed a few years
ago that the telephone is such a great
invention as it is? Just so it is with
the great discovery of Lightning Hot
Drops, remedy that stands to-day
without an equal, without parallel
for the cure of all stomach and bowel
troubles, caused by oyer-eating, indi-

quickly you will be astonished, and
the fact that it leaves no bad results
is The beauty of it. The action of
Lightning Hot Drops is marvellous,
yet harmless, and you will be sur
prised to know how many different
kinds of ailments you will find 1t
good for, and if you once use it you
will have no occasion to keep cup

for Lightning Hot Drops will do the
work of plasters., pills, ointments,

l had occasion to visit Mr.. Moore's
laboratory the other day. Some of the
experiments / witnessed were beautiful
and the light was certainly as good as
one could wish. One experiment struck
me particularly. After we entered the
dark room the inventor handed me a
long glass tube about as big as broom
stick and then ordered the lights out.
In a few seconds streams of light began
playing through the tube from one end
to the other The amazing thing about
ii Is that there is no contact with any
thing.
of course I asked Mr.. Moore to ex-
plain.
1T is only a manifestation of electri-
cal Induction" he replied, smiling. The
current from the diminutive vibrator is
connected with a small piece of tin on
the ceiling. and the electric waves pass
through the intervening air space to
your body"
If what Mr. Moore says is true, the
possibilities of this one feature Of the
new light are simply enormous. II, in
stead of a piece of tin, metallic paint

made a part OF the circuit. the same
effects would be produced. The tube

Not only is 1t the nearest approach TO
the production of light without heat
that the world has yet seen, but the
whole illumination is obtained from an
ordinary CURRENT of low voltage.

cent lamp. and the illuminating agent

lust as we now distribute water and
gas.
Mr. Moore's invention involves new
principle in molecular vibration. He
separates the several divisions OF en-
ergy and employs only the illuminating
elements. He hopes to get as much
ught with a one-volt current as Tesla
now does with a million volts. In short.
the new light promises to turn things

new light say that IL will work a revo-
luton in the methods of illumination.
Some remarkable photographs have
already been obtained from II. II is
stated that the cost will be scarcely
one-half of the rates that at present
prevail.
Mr. Tesla had a somewhat amusing
experience not long ago in this con-
nection. In the course OF his expert
ments he accidentally discovered that
rapid vibration has physiological eff
fects on the human body. That a sick
man. for example. may be so shaken up
as to be cured of his ailments. Mr..
Tesla thereupon made an "oscillator"-
a sort OF platform which produces very
rapid mechanical vibrations. and tried
IL upon some of his friends. Hon.
Abram s. Hewitt, among others. The
''oscillator'' worked like a charm, and
someone put q squib In the papers
about IL which went the rounds of the
country. Very soon Mr.. Tesla was de-
luged with letters by people who want
ed to be shaken up" 1t seemed as IL
half the human family had torpid
livers
Mr.. Tesia's experience in this respect
was duplicated by Mr.. Edison. AS soon
as IL became generally known that the
wizard had been able 20 photograph

writers had needles, bullets or foreign
substance in them. Il had no idea"
said Mr.. Edison, that the country had
so many patriots with bullets in their

Following close upon the heels o.
Roentgen's rays the discovery promises
to work a revolution In electric illumi-
nation and foreshadow an era OF one
unhrohen day.
Mr.. Moore Is comparatively unknown
to fame. For several years past he has
been quietly at work in his Newark
laboratory-which, curiously enough, is
within a stones throw of Edison's old
place-and success seems at least to
have crowned his efforts. He calls the
new kind of Illumination "etheric light
ing" for want OF a better name. and
employs only the most simple appa-
ratus TO manufacture IL. Indeed. like
Roentgen's rays. the wonder is that
some electrician has not before this
time hit upon Mr.. Moore's discovery.
IL is certainly as simple as il is re-
markable in the effects produced.

No wires or connections are needed.
All that is necessary is q glass tube In
which the light can manifest itself.
No matches, no oil. no gas, no buttons
to press-all you need Is a glass much
like q walking stick. This new light
promises to be a bonanza to a club man.

stick in the air in any direction, as
Franklin did with his lightning rod and
the electric fire will come down and IL

which way the stick Is pointed, he will
be sure to get light sufficient to find his
way upstairs.
Neither of the inventions I have just
described have been placed on the mar
ket as yet. but they are liable to make
their appearance almost any day.
Meanwhile the oil trusts, the acetylene
trusts and some of the big electric
light companies would do well to be
on the lookout for cheap illumination.
for IL is bound TO come. Three electri-
cal experts have said IL, and 1t Is great
