stars is completely mistaken. Again. his
fundamental principle OF electricity Is his
keynote.
HE ARGUES THAT
THE SUN IS COLD.
THE SUM- he said. contrary to belief.
Is absolutely cold. The fact is that 1t is an
immense magnet and is surrounded by
spherical electrical field which shoots forth
electrical waves or vibrations. direct vibra-
TONS of tremendous power. Now without
the moon. the earth could not be inhabited
The vibrations from the sun are so in
tense that. unless there were some con-
verter to modify them; they would en-
animal life exists at comparatively low
vibration. The moon is that converter
The sun is. strictly speaking. an arma-
ture. revolving, around which are field mag
nets, these latter constituting the electritsl
sphere. The result is tremendous dyna-
mo, fiinsing forth a direct current, which
converted into current the vibrations of
which are more in tune with life upon the
EARTH
Having advanced this far with his astrou-
omy. Brazelle seemed to talk as in a dream
and the picture he painted now began TO
expand to include other worlds.
The earth, all the planets. and each solar
system has an electrical field of it's own
Thus the earths field occupies space until
1t touches the field Of another planet say
Mars. for instance. though Eros. the newly
discovered planet is nearest to US.
THE larger and inclusive field of this
solar system occupies space until 1t con-
facts with that of the next system. Herein
is the basis of means of interplanet COM
munication.
Certainly. on the theory by which Mar
conf shoots an electrical wave into the air
which is received and registered on the
other side Of the Atlantic, sufficient power
could project vibrations through space until
the electrical field of Mars was reached I
think that even the voice OF an occupant of
this earth could be Transported to Mars
upon these projected vibrations. You may
be saying Hello across space to a Marsian,
one Of these days.
IN TIME MAY TALK
TO MEN OF MARS.
THE whole question lies In the ability of
man TO produce machine which can pro-
ject sufficiently powerful vibration and
control the character OF the electrical vi
bration projected. You want your yibra-
ton of perfect tune and pitch In order tbat
1t may be taken up and carried along nv
the vibrations of Mars
Brazelle had innumerable drawings show
ing electrical apparatus designed TO produce
currents of the desired vibration. These
he is using. he says. in the construction Of
his machine. which is to be capable Of pro-
the minute The difficulty is that. IL This
current ever gets loose without proper
guidance. it may considerably disturb the
contour of the earth for miles around
Now the Twentieth Century prorhecy
Brazelle foretells that there will be air
ships and submarine craft galore The skies
will be crowded with the swift craft mod
uct Of modern mans ingenuity and knoWI-
edge. And the power will be furnished Nv
electricity.
The difficulty now is with the air boats
that their engines or motive power veieha
so much that to secure sufficient huoya6cv
is well-nish impossible problem Bra
zelle pictures that upon many eminences
throughout the land and at various nnin1s
along the shores of the oceans will be i'm
menSe power stations. These will eenerata
electrical waves and will project them in
the atmosphere.
! Then on board the airships must he onJv
that machinery necessary to receive ,hese
waves. which will have in them as mnch
and more DYNAMIC power than now is COM
urnicated by the trolley wire.
The passenger upon these aerial cars nv
the use OF vibrations. will be able 10 taIk
and see friends upon the land no matter
how far distant they may be- A vibration
on the airship. will ring the telephone
belr' at home thousand miles away.
