WEIRD DOINGS AT
THE TESLA PLANT-
Natives Around Wardencliffe-L I Having the Time of TheirLives Guessing What theElectrician Is Trying to Do
Whatever Nicola Tesla Is trying to doat Wardencliffe L I he has succeededIn keeping the natives guessing Somethink ho Is trying to signal Mars othersthInk that he has evolved a now sys-tem of communication by electricitythrough the air without wires stillothers believe that he has another ata-tloq
¬
oft In China or Siberia and Is try-ing to communicate with It by electri-cal
¬
currents through the earthWeird doings around the Tesla plant-
at Wardencllffo serve to excite the In-
habitants these fine nights None ofho natives Is allowed to get near thebewildering stack of towers poles andqueer structures that tho Tesla work ¬
men have erected and these same work-man
¬are ui reticent as clams The tall
loctrlclan Is seen but seldom and whenho does condescend to speak all he willadmit Is that his experiments have to dowith wireless telegraphy
Some day he said today but notat this time I shall make an announce-ment
¬
of something that I once neverdreamed of
For a great many years Mr Teslahas beon on the verge of making an-announcement ciUculted to paralyzothe world In a labarotory up in Hous-ton
¬
street he had a mysterious ma-chine
¬
that poked white shafts of light ¬
ning Into the atmosphere Many menof science and finance looked at the ma ¬
chine and wonderedSimilar flashes longer and more Intense leap from the tower of the Teslaworks at Wardcncllrro The villagers
sit out In front of their houpos and atIntervals between batting mosnultneifrom their visages onmeaning of tho strange lights that shoot-out and appear to dissolve In the sur-rounding
¬
atmosphereUnder tho tall tower there Is a hole
In tho ground 150 feet deep Mr Teslandmlts that he shoots electric currentsdown this hole and there Is nn doubtthat lie creates flashes long enough toready the bottom of It But there Isa deal of speculation concerning-why he should want to shoot electricHashes Into a hole In the ground I
Wiselooking men of mystery whohave been snooping around Warden ¬
cliffe have boon heard to say that ToslaIs trying to get electricity out of theearth without the employment of arti-ficial
¬
mediums A man In Chicagothinks that If he can shoot a magnetInto the air far enough ho can accumu-late
¬
electricity which can be carried tothe earth on a Wire Why shouldntMr Tea dig a deep hole In the groundand bring electricity to tho surface ItIs easier to drop a magnet Into theearth than It Is to fire a magnet Intothe atmosphere and make It stay fired
In the Interval of welting for whatMr Tesla In going to announce thopeople of Wardoncllffe and the sur-rounding
¬
country are having the time oftholr lives
