to the telegraph and newspapers. Since
the Chinese-Japanese war there have
been great increase in the use of the
telegraph and a rapid development Of
newspapers. The reading of newspa-
perS has resulted in a growth of pa
triotism. Sectional discomfort, railroad
competition against native labor, news
paper knowledge of foreign ideas of
China and the growing up of Chinese
patriotism helped to bring about the
Boxer war, Consul Goodnow says. Six
teen out of 10 provinces were kept out
of the uprising through the influence
of the viceroys, but many of these
same viceroys told him personally that
if the partition of China We're attempt
ed they would not for moment try to
restrain the people of their provinces.
They would fight.
The middle class, including the mer-
chant clement and officials, is particu-
larly well disposed toward the United
States. The people know that this
country does not want any part of
China. They refer with approval to
VIZ AioSS ~ h1SSiSl'hAS 10y III w liiNl llS-
declared for an open door in China.
They approve also the refusal of Adj
miral Kempff to fire on the Taku forts,
and they recognize that a Chinese gets
the same justice in an American court
in China as Americans. Ii Hung
Chang personally told Consul General
Goodnow that he rated American mis-
sionares as superior to those of any
other country.
American missionaries were builders
and conductors of hospitals and educa-
tional institutions in China. and no 9th
er missionaries had attempted these
things. Thousands of Chinese were
freely treated in the hospitals, and
thousands were instructed in the
schools. Mr. Goodnow says it was alb
surd to charge the missionaries with
causing the Boxer war. They were
simply hated by the Chinese as one
part of great foreign element that
threatened to upset the national insti-
tutionS.

Briefly, Tesla has been able to note
novel manifestation of energy, which
he knows is not of solar or terrestrial
origin, and, being neither, he concludes
that 1t must emanate from one Of the
planets. While he was conducting his
Investigations in his Colorado labora-

ton of the earth was affected in an I'M

were observed not once, but many
times the number of impulses varying,
and Mr.. Tesla now firmly believes that
with improved apparatus it will be
quite possible for the people Of the
earth to communicate with the inhab-
itants of other planets In telling about
his work and his discoveries Mr.. Tesla
said:

the conditions at sea level thoroughly.
and wanted to know how far my
laboratory observations would agree

Colorado was nearer than California
and had some friendly relations in
Colorado Springs. and this determined
me to select that neighborhood for my
place of observation.
"a laboratory was erected on an
elevation at a distance Of about ten
miles from Pixies peak. | set out to
carry on my experiments along three
different lines: First. to ascertain the

engaged for eight years. and, third,
to work on another problem which in
