IT is rumored that President Samuel
Spencer, Of the Southern Railway will
be offered the presidency Of the New
York Central. This moves the Char
lotte Observer to say:
1t is very probably true that Mr..
Spencer has been, or will be, offered
the presidency Of the New York Cen
trail, but the Observer has its doubts
about his acceptance of the offer. The
New York Central is great road, but
it is built to the top, rooted over, and
has no chance for development beyond
its present stage. With the Southern,
it is different. There is great future
ahead of this road. 1t is unfinished
the possibilities of developments ahead
of it are practically unlimited and I
offers a field which man ofMr. Spen-
GERS abilities and resources would he
naturally 10th to abandon. The pres
idency Of the New York Central means
much, but the presidency of the
Southern means more, a fac, which
has no doubt already occurred to Mr..
Spencer.

Sheriff OF Washoe County subject to the
decision OF the Republican County Con-
ventipn, is thoroughly conversant with
the duties OF the Office to which he
aspires and in every way worthy OF the

He has been a resident of the county
for many years and is familiar with
every part OF it. He has a wide circle OF
acquaintance and is representative OF
the people with whom he has dwelt.
He will be honest and fearless in the
performance OF his duties and make a

TesIa,s Latest Invention.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.--Nicola Tesla,
the noted electrician, has succeeded in per-
fecting his so called electrical oscillators
or machines for the economical production
of rapid electrical vibrations. By means
of the osoillators he is confident that his
lighting by glass bulbs without the usual
filament of the incandescent lamp will be-
come practicable They are besides capa-
bic of developing far more powerful
Roentgen rays than was heretofore possi-
bic with the old apparatus. and they lend
themselves to numerous other uses, such
as photography and production of ozone
and other chemical combinations and to
electro therapeutic treatment Il is proba-
BILE that these latest contributions Of Tesla
will prove more fruitful and farreaohing
than his preylous achievements.

HYPNOTISM AND CRIME.
How Connecticut Farmer Lost
His Money.
HIeHWAYMEN IN svENGALrs ROLE

1t Was First Reported That He Was
Bunkoed. but It Is Now Asserted That
He Was Hypnotixed-He Seemed TO BE
Dazed.
HARTFORD, Sept 30.-The inside facts
Of the way Consider A. Risley, the aged
Vernon farmer, was swindled out Of
$1,000 last Saturday make an entirely
different story from the one that was
given circulation. IL is believed that Mr..
Risley was not bunkoed in the old fash
toned way, but was hypnotized.
Mr.. Risley is an unusually Intelligent
and shrewd man of affairs. The FIRST
stranger who called on him Saturday stood
in his yard, according to his housekeopor,
who is the only one living with him, and
talked to him for an hour, keeping his eye
fixed on the old man. The stranger made
a proposition to Mr. Risley to 90 into
some kind of business which would re-
quire $4,000 capital to put with SO, 600 the
stranger had.
The details Of the business are not made
known, because they were so ridiculous.
Mr. Risley's housekeeper saw him drive
away when he went to the First National
bank In Rockville and drew the money
She saw a tin box, and few moments
later Mr.. Risley entered the house
Seemed to BE Dreamy.
'What have you in that box2" the
housekeeper asked.
"Oh, 1 don't know, he replied in a
dreamy way. Money, guess"
'Where have those gentlemen gomez"
she asked.
"What gentlemen?" he asked in far
.-f.. III H.
pearing like one drugged. When she ex-
planned, he said he believed they had gone
up the road or somewhere. 1t never oo-
curing to him to open the box, she did it
for him. Only newspapers and letter Of
advice against swindlers were found.
He stared at the contents in a dull fash
ion, not seeming TO realize anything what
had happened. When she proposed his 60
ing for Sheriff Dickinson, he replied
"Oh, let me alone. 1 want to take a
nap"
1t was with difficulty that she aroused
him and sent him TO Rockville.
He and his hOusokeeper came to Hart
ford to SEQ his lawyer yesterday. He had
not recovered from his dazed condition.
He would talk freely a few moments, and
then no would lapse into dreamy state,
and there would be the same vacant look
in his face.
He is slowly recovering his former
olearness Of intellect but he does not
know just what happened to him, except
that he was swindled in the most absurd
fashion. He is very observant Of horses.
yet he cannot tell what was the color OF
the horse the stranger had, and he says
that they rode in a top carriage, when
really it was an open buggy.

Assisiant trand tltcf itcrson5 views OF
the Canadian Pacific Trouble.
MoNTREAI.. Sept 30.-ln an interview
here on the strike OF the ielegraphers on
the Canadian pacilc railway system, As
sistant Grand Chiof Pierson, who Is di-
recting tho strike on this line, said that
the operators undoubtedly had numerous
grievances. In addition TO their being
oyerworked and underpaid, they were
mado to do various kinds of menial work,
such as cleaning and scrubbing stations,
attending to water tanks, etc The mon
had to 20 on duty very carly in the morn
ing, and some of them worked until mid
night and on many occasions until and
8 in the morning without extra ray. Tho
wages paid to tho ordinary operators aver
aged $50 per month He denied that the
grievances had not boon presented TO the
division superintendeuts The superin-
tendonts on the different divisions had
been approached by the operators, but
would do nothing.
On the contrary, they sought to destroy
the telegrnphers' organization. Mr.. Pier
son added that everything possible had
been done by the mon to avoid a strike
The great majority Of them had been in
favor of striking months ago, but were
held back by the officers Of the order un-
til now.
Mr. Pierson claims that OF the 500 odd
operators on the Canadian Pacific system
$50 were members cf the organization and
had quit work. AT Ottawa, where eight
were employed in the Union depot, six Of
them left their wires last night Mr..
Pierson stated that nc had received telo-
grams from all along the line to the effect
that not only had all the organization
men gono out, but that many nonmem-
bors wore joining them. Tho demands
/ presented to the company were that IL
hours should constitute a days work and
extra pay for overtime. Only In few in
stances were advances asked in salaries,
and these IN the most pressing cases.
