the Eastern roads, but also with the West

keey wanted more money, and the
stockholders, whose suspicious had been
aroused by an expose in New York
technical journal, declined to put up un-
less he made a satisfactory answer to the
charges. The upshot of it was that he
invited everybody interested to be pres
ent at a grand demonstration and,
while | didn't own any shares myself,
was included as the representative of
relative who had invested rather heavily.
"On the appointed day some p or 80
of us gathered at his shop and he began
an elaborate exhibition of his apparatus.
He set q lot of strange machinery into
furious motion with no other apparent
power than a common tuning fork and
finally led us TO an immense brass globe,
surrounded by a ring of small contriv-
anees that looked like electrical arma-
lures. At the other side of the room was
a glass jar half full of water, in which
one end of a slender copper wire was
submerged. He attached the other end
to one of the armatures, sounded a note
on a mouth organ, and the big globe be-
gan to spin around. Keely explained that
it was moved by atomic attraction
am no scientist. but l had vague suspi-
cion that there was something wrong
with the wire, and, acting purely on the
impulse, l picked it up and bent the
slack at right angles. Instantly the globe
began to slow down. But Keely saw me
and was at my side in a bound. Good
heavens" he exclaimed, snatehing the
wire out of my hands and hastily straight
ening the bend. DO you want TO get us
all killed? He was the picture of panic,
and l confess | was badly scared. What
have l done?' l stammered. You have
interrupted the atomic vibrations he re-
piled, and in half a minute enough ar
rested power would have accumulated at
that point to have blown us all to atomsp
His voice trembled and his demeanor
was so impressive that my blood ran
cold. During the rest of the demonstra-
tion l let the apparatus severely alone.
After Keely's death the premises were
thoroughly examined, and the mystery Of
the globe and other apparatus was fully
disclosed. What seemed to be wires were
really small copper tubes, which convey
ed compressed air from a hidden reser-
voir under the floor. When l bent the
tube, | simply shut off the air supply.
That was the atomic vibration. New
