dozen of the largest manufacturers Of In.
candcscent electric lamps. The combine
10 already engaged In an effort to crush
out oil opposition through threats Of suits
for damages for alleged infringenicnts
upon certain patents. There has been no
exchange of stock or consolidation Of the
effects Of the companies. but instead the
combine has been effected through the
pooling Of patents controlled by the sew.
cral companies. In order that they may
be able to array themselves against all
competitors who refuse to come In and
raise prices on lamps. In this way thu
promoters Of tho scheme hope to speedily
crush out all Of the small concerns that
have waged unccaslng warfare against
their wealthy competitors by cutting
prices.

the laboratory. No thrill can go through
the human frame like that felt by the in
ventor as he sees the creation of his
brain unfolding to success after months
and years of waiting and hoping" So
Tesla does not gamble now. at least. not
over the card table. His laboratory sup
plies all the excitement that his emotions
can stand.
Teslas father was a clergyman Of the
Greek Church, and it was intended that
the son should fit himself for the same
life. The idea of entering the ministry
was opposed by the boy with such per-
tinacity that at last his father compro-
missed by agreeing that he should be-
come a professor of mathematics and
physics With that end in view Tesla
was sent to the Polytechnic Institute at
Gratz, and there. in operation. was a
gramme dynamo. That simple elec-
trical instrument, the first that he had
seen, settled the future calling of Tesla.
Prior to entering the polytechnic at
Gratz he had first attended a public
school at Gospitch. and later spent three
years at the high school in Carstatt,
Croatia. 1t was while he was here that
he saw his first steam engine.
Immediately on entering the polytech-
mic he began experimenting with cleo
tricity, and when his father heard of 1t
there was a stiff family row. but the son
came off victor, and. instead of taking
the course that would have fitted him
| for a college professorship of mathe-
| matics, he studied engineering. The
