STABS A MOUNTAIN LION.
Texas Farmer Slew a Beast That Had
Killed His Child.

Maddened by the sight of mountain
lion standing over the dead body Of
his three-year-old son, Juan Morales,
farmer living seven miles from
Brownsville, Tex, killed the beast with
knife thrust in the heart after a tif-
teen minute struggle, in which he sus
tained injuries which will cost an arm
Morales had gone to a neighbor's on
an errand and left his three children,
aged three, seven and ten years, at
home. His wife died some months
ago. He was returning and heard the
screams Of his children. Rushing into
the house, he saw a mountain lion
crouched over the lifeless and almost
headless body of his little son.
The beast sprang at Morales, and the
desperate fight began. Morales, who is
forty-two years old and an athlete,
tried for strangie hold on the ami
NAL, which fought with its paws and
was fast pulling the flesh from the
right arm and shoulder of Morales
when he managed to get out his knife
and made several cuts at the noun
tain lion, which only made it more fe
rocious.
Morales was almost exhausted when
he succeeded in driving the big blade
of the knife into the heart Of the ami
NAL and staggered from its grasp as it
fell dead at his feet Morales tainted,
and his two little girls revived him
with cold water and then helped him
to bandage the wounds.
1t was long journey to town for
medical aid, and, without conveyance
handy, Morales determined to make the
trip on foot with his two surviving
children. They had almost completed
the journey when a man in a wagon
picked them up and carried them to
Brownsville.

NiK0LA TESLA HAS
A NEW INVENTION.
Electrical Journal Says He Can EasiI,
Transmit Great Energy.

A new development of mechanical
principle upon which Nikola Tesla is
said to have been laboring for some
years is described in the Electrical Re-
view. This latest development in me-
chanics for which so much is claimed
by friends of the inventor is based on
the adhesion and viscosity Of liquids
and gases and is said to afford novel
means of generating and transmitting
mechanical power.
DR.. Tesla is very optimistic about
the results of his long experimental
ton, but will not discuss the matter
for publication He expressed sur
prise that any one had heard Of his
latest work before the appearance Of
his account of 1t in the electrical pub
ncation.
"The efficiency of the machines DR..
Tesla has constructed on this princi-
ple," the Electrical Review says, '1s
evidenced by their remarkable per-
formance, small turbines or rotary en-
gines being run at a pertpheral speed
scarcely more than half of that of re-
action turbines and giving several
times the output of the latter"
The article describes a small steam
turbine recently exhibited in New
York "having a motor only nine and
three-quarter inches in diameter and
two inches wide," which is said to be
capable Of developing 40 horsepower
with free exhaust This machine, it
is further stated, has no blades, vanes,
valves or sliding contacts Of any kind.
"On account of the great simple
ity of the apparatus, reversibility and
extraordinary output" the article con-
tinues, 'it will undoubtedly find an
immense variety Of uses, and the com
mercial world cannot fail to be deeply
interested in this new development.
The electrical industry in particular
should be greatly benefited by this
latest effort of DR.. Tesla"
