lion. Daniel Webster Miller was signed by
Manager Pyle late yesterday to pitch for
the Printers against the Court House Cada
vers. He began It thusly : Ho let 'em have
three hits , npd then they promptly tco'.t
three bases ; he unrolled bin great right
arm , waved It in the air , and each time a
Cadaver stepped up to bat he fell calmly
and peacefully Into a deep slumber. Old-
time batters like Buck and L.'hr passion
ately pushed the air not wisely out too
often. John Winters , Jr. , pitched the best
he knew how for the people on the hill ,
but hl.'i heart was touched up HO loudly by
the pica setters that you could hear It beat
even while the Union Pacific local freight
went thundering by , and a great wave of
pity nwtpt over the faces of the 800 spec
tators for him the wave being so great
that you could see the ends dripping otf his
shoo laces. The Printers went Into the
Kame to win ; they did It In a slow walk :
they simply blotted out all semblance of
what was once n fair aggregation of ball
players. They began Jarring the man with
arctic zone , name from the start , and were
aided by Liirmar and Cone , who gave an
exhibition of throwing that was as wild as
a Texas steer. The prints pushed the ball
out Into the unlrrlgated lands , ran the
bases like young colts , and at the end of
live Innings It looked thusly :

DARING THEORIES OF TESLA
. - ;
Tha Slavonian Wtonfal Work on a Won
derful Light.
THE ELECTRiCiTV. . OF THE FUTURE
tlio Vibrations of the Atinni-
phei-n ntiil Sending .Messages Through
the liiirth Wllljnut Ulren-Sturtllng
llevi'lopiiiciitB In 1'rnnppct.
Since his last startling exhibition of the
power and possibilities of electricity In Phil
adelphia and 3t. Louis last year but little
lias appeared In the press regarding the
projects then outlined by Mr. Nikola Tcsla.
The famous electrician has not been Idle ,
however. He Is actively developing his
daring theories , which promise wonders that
arc now undreamed of by scientists.
A correspondent of the New York World
Interviewed Mr. Tesla recently and secured n
glimpse of what the Slavonic wizard pro
poses to do. Says the Intervlowcr :
Mr. Tesla's biggest undertaking at pres
ent that to which he Is devoting his most
earnest efforts Is the production of light by
the vibrations of the atmosphere. lie has
no Intention of heating a b.t of cinder red
hot and letting H glow by Incandescence.
The present Incandescent system , compared
with the Tesla Idea , Is as primitive as tn ox
cart with two solid wooden wheels com
pared to modern railroading.
The light of the sun , according to Mr.
Tcsla , Is the result of vibrations In 94,000-
000 miles of ether which separate us from the
center of this solar system. Mr. Testa's
Idea Is to produce hero on earth vibrations
similar to those which cause the sunlight ,
and thus to give us a light as good as that
of the sun , with no danger from clouds or
other obstructions. Mr , Tesla has already
achieved decided success In this 1'ne. He
takes In his hand a Icng bar of glass ,
which , by vibration alone , lights up Into
most amazing brilliancy. He himself comes
out of his experiments a. most radiant
creature , with lght flaming at every pore
of his skin , from the tips of his fingers and
from the end of every hair on his head.
In explaining his experiments , Mr. Tesla
uses figures calculated to pulverize an ordi
nary mind.
"It Is difficult for me , " he said , "to give
you an Idea that you will readily grasp about
this Question of vlbrat'on. In ordinary life
our minds do not deal with the figures that
come up In such investigations , but take a
6 and put after It
fourteen zeroes , then you
will IIEVO the number of vibrations that oc
cur in the ether every second and which
reduces light. "
I carried out Mr. Tesla's suggestion , with
the following result 600,000,000 000 000
"u"1 have , to do > " sald MrTes'a. ' . "to
duplicate the sunlight Is to get this number
of vibrations to the
second with
my ma
chinery on earth. I have succeeded up to
a certain point , but ani still at work on the
task.
THE POWER OF VIBRATION.
I tried In various ways to present In cold
writing some notion yt what five hundred
trillions of vibrations to the second might
mean. I didn't succeed very well. The
nearest I could was to mention , at Mr
Tcsla s suggestion ( ho following fact : If n
mass of metal as 'big ' as the Delmonico res
taurant. In whlchjwe , Eat , possessing 10,000
times the resisting forte of the most finely
tempered steel , should be caused to vibrate
with one-mlllloneth of the rapidity of the
light-producing electric vibrations in ether
that mass of metal , 10,000 times harder than
steel , would simply vanish Into the air like
smoke. , H would disappear into separate
atoms too small to be ; ' een and * would never
be heard of again. i
Electricity-in ItsSvfbratlons '
ndcordlng to'
-Jlr. Tesla , has a great advantage over all
other things , such as files' wings and other
material ] bodies. Electricity has no weight
and therefore no opposition IsToffered to Us
moving backward and forward freely any
number of times to the second.
"It Is perfectly ea'sy to prove that elec
tricity weighs nothing , " said Mr. Tesla. "I
will load you so full of electricity that you
can't hold any more and then put you on the
finest weighing machine , and you will not
find one-thousandth part of an ounce added
to your weight. "
I ventured to suggest to Mr. Tcsla that as
a vibrator electricity might meet with se
rious competition among modern statesmen ,
but his mind was so serious , that he only
said : "No statesman could vibrato fast
enough to bo of any value scientifically. "
ONE OP HIS DISCOVERIES.
Mr. Tesla discovered the rotating mag
netic field. That seems to me. next to his
Idea of getting light by vibration , the best
thing he ever did. The rotating magnetic
field Is a thing which may bo described , hut
not understood. Everybody knows that a
magnet will seize a piece of iron and hold It
firmly ; everybody knows that the magnet
must use up force In holding that Iron , but of
course as long as It holds the Iron perfectly
still the force Is wasted. The piece of Iron
If left alone would stand still. There Is no
use In getting a magnet to make It stand
still. I3ut Mr. Tesla found that ho could get
a magnet to use Its force In such a way as to
cause the pleco of Iron to spin violently
round and round. Ho can make n wheel at
a distance from the source of electromagnetic
netic force spin round with 10,000-horso
power. Ho expects to apply this prin
ciple In employing the strength of the Niag
ara Kails electric current. The fact may be
mentioned that the Niagara Falls people
who have relied upon Tesla to tell them
how they may use their power at a distance
have adopted his scheme.
This rotating magnetic field struck me as
a most Impressive discovery. I asked Mr.
Tesla whether he didn't think It possible
that the spinning , rotary motion of the
earth and her fellow planets , commonly at
tributed to some unexplained primary pro
pulsive force , might be duo to the application
on a grand scale of his rotating magnetic
field Idea. I suggested that the sun might bo a
great magnet , that the five hundred trillion
vibrations per second which he spoke of
showed considerable electrical power some
where : that there was a great deal of Iron
and a powerful lot of electricity In the earth.
Mr. Tesla observed that he thought It was
dangerous to Jump at such conclusions , but
ho treated my enthuslaem , born of complete
Ignorance , with a kind of tolerAtlon , which
did much to convince me of his true great
ness.
ness.THE
THE SECRET OP ELECTRICITY.
Electricians In .genejal think that Tesla's
best work thus far Is.a machine which has
Industrial value as' a new and more direct
agent for producing electrical force. I didn't
care much about , , that compared with the
rotating magnetic Held , but I asked Mr.
Tesla to tell mo 111 , ns1 few words as possible
Just how wo get clfctilclty ; ; , and why wo get
It when wo do get It , Said Mr. Tesla :
"We get elcctrjpltjr by causing a wlro
to revolve near laa'piagnet. ) ' The stronger
the magnet the faster' the revolutions of the
wire , and the Weaer the wlro the more
electricity. Ti'-'I
"Why wo got electricity In this way , and
what electricity W , 'tiro ' different questions.
Every electrician'u > his theory. I have
one which I thlnU , lijCmi demonstrate mathe
matically. There ; , < ! > ino accepted explana
tion of the most extraordinary phenomenon
In nature. " .
Mr. Tesla docs' ' hbtf care to see In cold
print an account of those things which he
hopes to accomplish or to sea accomplished ,
by means of electrlqlty.
"You would think 'me a dreamer and very
far gone , " ho said , "If I should tell you
what I really hope for. Hut I can tell you
that I look forward with absolute confidence
to sending messages through the earth with
out any wires. I have also great 'hopjs of
transmitting electric force In the same way
without waste. Concerning the transmis
sion of messages through the earth I have
no hesitation In predicting success. I must
first ascertain exactly how many vibrations
to the second are caused by disturbing the
mass of L'lectrlclty which the earth contains.
My machine for transmitting must vibrate
as often to put Itself In accord wltb the
electricity In the earth. "
TOOK 250,000 VOLTS HIMSELF.
Me. Tesla la the Interesting person who ,
In Philadelphia , before a largo gathering ,
allowed a quarter of a million volts of elec
tricity to go through his body. Having seen
Carlyle Harris and one other unfortunate
Individual Instantly killed by the applica
tion of lew than 2,000 volt * , I naked Mr.
T sla If he didn't feel n little worried about
taking n current of a quarter of a million
volts. Said ho :
"I did at flrnt feel apprehensive. I had
reasoned the thing out absolutely , never-
tliclcis there Is always a certain doubt about
the practical dunonntratlon of a perfectly
satisfactory theory. My Idea of letting this
current go through me was to demonstrate
conclusively the folly of popular Impressions
concerning the alternating current. The ex
periment had no value for scientific men ,
A great deal of nonsense Is talked and bo-
llevcd about 'volts , ' etc. A million vo'.ta
would not kill you or hurt you If the current
vibrated quickly enough say half a million
times to the second. Under such renditions
ths nerves wouldn't respond quickly enough
to feel pain , "
"You see , voltage has nothing to do with
the vlze and power of the current. H Is
simply the calculation of the force applied
t a given point. It corresponds to the
actual pressure per square Inch at the end
of a water pipe , whether the volume of
water be great or small. A million volts
going through you doesn't mean much under
proper conditions. Imagine n nccdlo so small
that the hole It would make In going
through your body would not allow the
blood to escape. Imagine It so small that
yon couldn't even feel It. If you had It put
through your arm slowly , that would be ,
electrically speaking , a very small voltage.
If you had It stuck through your arm with
great rapidity , going , eay , at the rate of 100
miles a second , that would be very high
voltage. Voltage Is speed , pressure at a
given point. It wouldn't do you any more
harm to have a needle shot through your
arm very rapidly that Is to say , with high
voltage than It would to put It through
slowly. In fact , If It hurt you at all , the
slow operation would probably hurl more
than the other. The question of danger
Is simply the size of current , and yet If a
big enough current should be turned against
you and broken with sufilclont rapidity If It
should , so to speak , Jerk back and forth
an Inconceivable number of times to the
second It wouldn't kill you. Whereas , If
applied' continuously , It would simply burn
you up. "

OMAHA , Aug. 4. To the Editor of The
UCe : An editorial paragraph appeared In
The : Bee of August 3 relating to the action
of the Hock Inland railroad In the town-
site controversy ut Round Pond and South
Enid , Okl.
1 have Just returned from a trip through
Oklahoma , and ns I have * no Interest what
ever In either town and as I believe yon
wish to be fair to all , I wish to any a word
on this subject.
First The Rock Island road was built
through the Cherokee Strip ( where the
trouble Is ) long before It was open to set
tlement. It was understood and agreed
with the company Hint It should not be
compelled to establish stations nearer than
ten miles of each other. The stations were
established , switches put In , and station
houses built before any government towns
were laid out. The land near the stations
Is splendidly adapted to townslle purposes.
Second When the government "townslte
locators" came upon the scene for pome
unaccountable reason they went In one cane
two miles anil In another three miles away
from the stations on the road and laid out
the "government towns. " All the land was ,
open , and any of It might have been taken ,
but evidently from motives not the purest
or best , ns Is believed by most people , they
refuse to locate near the stations already
built. The sites selected by the govern
ment party are not so good as those near
the present stations. In one Instance the
town was located In the brakes of n small
creek , where level ground for a switch
could not be found except by costly filling
and grading.
Third The people who settled In the gov
ernment towns arc the victims of this un
accountable action of the locaters. In eneh
case a good town has been built up around
the railroad station , whose- property will
be rendered valueless If the stations are
moved. The railroad company will be put
to large expense if compelled to move the
stations. All this trouble Is brought on by
what seems to an outsider to have been
the want of Judgment of those appointed
by the government to locate the townsltes.
The courts huve twice decided In favor of
the Rock Island company , and most fair-
minded people do the same. It Is but fair
, < to say that the best people In these towns
have greatly regretted the lawless course
which has been pursued by the touch ele
ment In these government towns. The de
struction of property and the risk to life
has been great.
In conclusion let me say that I think
It only right to treat all Interests fairly ,
and , while having no personal Interest In
any way on either side , I think the Rock
Island Railway company has been very
patient and law-abiding under the most
aggravating circumstances , while anarchy
has reigned supreme In these other places.

MAYWOOD , Neb. , Aug. 5. To the Editor
of The nee : A communication published In
your paper some time since misrepresents
the case as to Cruzcn In' Frontier county.
The straight republicans are opposed to
him because he played Into the hands of
the populists last fall and helped defeat
republican candidates. The populist county
officers think It necessary to keep on hand
$20,000 to J30.000 , which they loan to Criizen
and other 2-per-cent-a-month sharks nt 3
per cent per annum , in consideration of
which they have Cruzen's and other sup
port in the election , and the very essential
assistance of Cruzen and others In arrang
ing their olllclal bonds. In other wordH ,
Cruzen sells out his party for 'a lion's
share of the county deposits , which he
loans to the poor , drouth-stricken farmers
at 2 per cent per month , requiring of the
populists that they shall wrench the money
from these people a year before It Is needed
for county purposes , so as to let him have
the use of It , Is it any wonder that he Is
Intensely unpopular at homo , both with
republicans and the people generally , al
though he Is the dlspcnsor of railroad
favors In this county. Cruzen Is a political
fraud , a. personal and party hypocrite , and
obtained a delegation In his favor by a
fraudulent apportionment of delegates to
the > county convention.

Is largely owner , Is printed on the pop
press.

CHICAGO , Aug. 5. Two husbands claimIng -
Ing the body of a dead wife on Identifying
the remains by n photograph and the other
peeking to establish his claim by describing j
every article found In her baggage Is ths di
lemma which now confronts Coroner McIIalo
of this city. April 1 ? a woman who arrived
In Chicago over the Santa Fe railroad went
direct to n cheap hotel. Five minutes after
reaching thu hotel she fell dead. In her
possession was found a ticket signed Mrs.
Lang , from San Francisco to Philadelphia , i
On her trunk was found the name "II. I
Sampson. " The coroner endeavored to find
the woman's relatives In Philadelphia , but ,
falling , caused the body to bo Interred In '
Waldhclm cemetery. |
Soon after the burial Leon Lang of 3SG9
Aspen street , Philadelphia , came to Chicago j
and declared ho thought the woman was his
wife who had been for two years In CallforI I
nla for her health. Mr. Lang had n picture
of his wife which strongly resembled the '
dead woman , but when It came to describ
ing her baggage ho could not toll the ap
pearance of a single article In th ? coroner's
possession , and that ofilclal , not being satis
fied , declined to surrender the baggage. i
IDENTIFIED FROM ARIZONA. I
Recently A. M. Sampson , a banker of
Tucson , u well known and wealthy resident of
Arizona , wrote that the woman was his
wife , and they had been married ten years.
Ho said she had started from San Francisco
In April for the east , and was to take a
voyage to Calcutta , India. She had written
him last on April 13 , saying -she had met a ,
lady on tha cars , and tney were to travel ,
together to the seaboard. When he did not
hear again , Mr. Sampson grew alarmed and
began an Investigation. He learned of the
death of the woman In Chicago , and con
cluded she had been his wife. He prepared
to recover his wife's property. Coroner Mc-
Halo was relieved when the westerner Iden
tified the trunks and Its contents , even to a
bottle of tooth powder. He mentioned note
paper In the trunk. H was there , printed
In his name and with the Inslgna of the
Grand Army of the Republic upon It. Mr.
Sampson used the paper as the commander
of the Union Veterans Association of Ari
zona. It was found Just where ho described
It. The name "B. Sampson" was also on
the trunk.
To clinch his claim , he sent a photo of
Mrs , Sampson and notified the coroner to
send the remains to Tuscan. The picture
had no resemblance to tno dead woman.
No ono could consider them for an Instant
as likenesses of the same Individual. The
coroner was In a quandary. If the deceased
was Mrs. Lang how came she with the prop
erty of Mrs. Sampson ? If she was Mrs.
Sampson , why did not she resemble her
own photo ? How came she with a ticket
bearing the signature of Lang ? Or , being
either of the two women , what has become
of the other ? These problems Mr. McIIalo
Is wrestling with , nor has ho yet mastered
them. Meanwhile both claimants are In
creasing their endeavors to secure the re
mains and the property.
EXPLAINED FROM PHILADELPHIA.
PHILADELPHIA , Aug. 5. The claims of
the two men , one Leon Lang of this city
and the other Hanker A. M. Sampson of
Tucson , Ariz. , to the body of the woman who '
died In Chicago nro possible of solution ,
when the circumstances under which Lang's
wlfo left thlE city over ten years ago are j
taken Into consideration. It Is the belief of |
Lang's daughters and of his friends who
knew Mrs. Lang that it was she who died
In Chicago. And further , It is their cn-
vlctlon that she traveled to Tucson and bo-
camo. the wife of Banker Sampson , but de
serted him and was on her way Ixick to her
husband In this city when death Intervened.
Seemingly she lived happily with her hus
band and two daughters , but those who
were very Intimate with her knew ths : ap
parent bliss was not real , and she deserted
her husband , taking with her $1,000 belonging
to him.
