He Was Not
PAT GROVE. BUT HE HAD TO
SHOW THE CARLSBAD FOLKS.
A Leather Drummer Has a Most I'm
fortunate Experience With Grasping
Police Officers.

c. Waller. knight of the grip. who
halls from Chicago. was among the
arrivals registered at the Orndorff no
tel last night. There was blood in his
eye and after he had signed his name
with a vehemence that rendered the
pen point useless. he filled the atmos-
phere Immediately around him with
sulphuric words.
Gradually fro mthe torrent of excla-
nations. CALCULATIONS. and denuncia-
lions his tale of woe was told. He had
been arrested. The sanctity of his per-
son had been violated He had been
cast into the outer darkness of an
odoriferous county jail. Personal lib
erty had been dethroned and the
American eagle screamed.
All this had happened in the town
of Carlsbad. in the territory of New
Mexico.
While peacefully pursuing his won't
/ ed vocation as a seller of leather goods
his shoulder was tapped in the most
approved detective style and he was
informed that he no longer enjoyed
the American privilege of going where
seer he listeth. He rebelled and pro-
tested in vain. The arm of the law
was strong and he was brought to
realization of that fact
Finally he demanded the cause for
this action and after being informed
that what he said would be used in
evidence against him, and that he
might just as well 'fess up, he learned
that his name was Pat Grove, the kid
naper of young Cudahy. with a price
upon his head.
He laughed. he SwOre. he begged. and
ended by telling the officer of the law
that he didn't know enough to ache
when he had a pain. Nothing, how
ever. seemed to disturb the equanimity
of the official. He simply produced a
photograph of the real Pat Grove and
offered it in evidence
When the drummer gazed upon the
features of the man who cornered the
Cudahy household for $4,000 he be-
came unconscious from the shock. The
chagrin of having his clean cut classic
features put in the same class with
the sinister rugged outline of Pat
Grove was too much for his powers
of endurance. When he revived suffi- |
GENTLY he drew a sight draft on an |
other large chunk of the American Ian |
guage and then humbly asked if he |
might telegraph to his house in Chica- |
GO
Permission was obtained and he wir-
ed long account of his predicament |
collect Pending an answer he was
led away and kept in durance vile. AS
soon as possible the answer came de-
ploring his condition and Offering any
assistance he might need.
telegram was also received by
the Carlsbad authorities from the same
source vouchiIg for the arrested man.
After considera BILE debate and due
deliberation the officials concluded that
it was a case of mistaken identity and
the commercial agent was restored to
his full rights as free born Ameri-
can citizen. He left FL Paso this
but he has cut out Carlsbad
from the list of his future visits.

TESLAS NEW LIGHT.
It's Soft and Steady and Looks Like
 a Nest of Glowing Crystals.

New York.-Nicola Tesla has perfect ed his system of electric lighting and hopes to have it soon introduced into general use. Under d full head of al"a- tricity the new light has the color cr lee in the sun. The light is soft and ab- SClutely steady SJ diffuSe is z that 1t deceiVtS the eye and at first seems without much power of illumination. This is the light-the perfect sanitary light" IS Tesla calls it--Which he has been seeking for ten years Ttere are neither wires nor rarbon filaments to break or burn out. The lamp may be described as a nest of glasi tubes bent In rectangular form.
 Each lamp has about twenty feet Of the white flag tubes. Into this sCuarc coil of hollow glass of tha dlcmet.r of a finger electricity is sent ,uiver.nS in to Teslas oscillator. Bursting into light it fills the apartment with th" clear light of day. It Is daylight-not the splendor of the sun. bu. thr Fight If the sun as on cloudy day when one f0rgets that the sun is shining.
 Tesia's osciila tor, which n" believes is the key for solving the most impor- tant electrical problems of the day, causes electrical vibrations of incDn- ceivable speed. Th-se vibrations turn the atoms of the gases in the tubes, as t were, into little comets wh' h shoot through the incloscd space with tre- mendous rapidity. leaving trains cf light behind.
 This sudden starting and stopping of the current produces continuous hght. not of the inCandest cnt nor Of the ar. light character. but purely solar. in other words each lamp is Il little sun.
 When reporter saw the ljr,.e. white icy tubes shining along the ceiling of Tesla's laboratory they appeared no more responsible for the dayligh: in the room than the glass pendant of q chan dalicr In a far corner au ordinary in- canGesceHt bulb was glOwing. it was cXtnguished but the daylight remain ed. When Tesla g icy tubes Were eX- tinguished the place was lu darkness. Several interesting experiments Were made. '1he sudden lighting of gas CT of the ordinary clectc'c lamp so shocked and strained the eyes that 0nr s-enrl for the moment afflicted with l sudden yellow blindness.
 The Tesla lamp is not like any of ,hc known lights in use. IL seems only t bunch of crystals glowing on !hr. ceu- ing at midday. But remove ;Eam and all light VanisheS.
