HOW TESLA WORKS
As to Mr. Tesla himself. there is no
harder worker knowl. - told me that he
seldom slept more than four hours Of a
night, and during some periods not more
than three. When In the thick Of a new
invention It is hard to sleep. His work is
always with him and he says that his
mind sometimes works in his sleep. He
awakes in the morning to find that the
problem which had worried him when he

oyer night. He has always been light
sleeper. His mother died at 20 and she
never took more than four hours sleep.
His father was light sleeper.
Tesla is a peculiar worker. Failures do
not trouble him. After he undertakes
thing and decides that It should come out
a certain way, he keeps on experimenting
and experimenting. believing in his sue
cess. He says that II he doubted his abil-
ity 1t would make him crazy,
. He seems to have a dual mind, He told
me that he often found himself carrying
on two trains Of thought at the same time.
and said that while he was talking to me
he could see the figures OF some OF his cal
culations behind me and could carry them
on at the same time. He Is always hsur-
ing. His scrap basket Is filled with the
calculations which he has torn up and
thrown away. He keeps record or his
experiments. and when his laboratory
burned some years ago he lost the work
of years in ideas and suggestions which
had been thus recorded.

the substance OF two remarkable talks
With Nikola Tesla.

The second was held IN the Waldorf to
night.
The first interview was most Interesting,
giving a wonderful insight into Tesla the
inventor and Tesla the man. but It wa.
never published, for Mr.. Tesla at its close,
on the ground Of business reasons, begged
that say nothing about him for months
to come.
1 wrote out the notes, however. and laid
them away, and when met Mr. Tesla to-
night l told him I now intended 20 Use
them. At the game time we had the eS-
traordirary conversation about his recent
discoveries and inventions as to the trans
mission OF force, which reproduce in the
latter part Of this article.
