window, nl tinned lb.; young man,
trashed lliivurh a mantid Into a fire
place on the oppuKlto side of tlie room,
and spent its force In the ground un
derneath. When the young man re
covered, his eye rested on a peculiar
Elfcht. tiefoiu the storm a china
pliiciliie bad stood, snow white, upon
the mantel. Afterward. Its crystal sur
face was marked by an angular streak
of black, as if a piece of charcoal had
been drawn zig-siag-wlse, across vlio
placque. All examination of the
placque showed that this black mark
was a literal portrait or the path de
ecribvd by a Hash of lightning. It
could not be erased. It was burned in
the china, a vivid memento of the dy
ing storm.
This peculiar circumstance set the
young- man to thinking. He had always
W-n of ,nn Inquiring turn of mind, but
the mystery of that electric photograph
puzzled him and he decided to master
it. It took bim fourteen years of pa
tient und Incessant study to do so; of
experimentation with crude tools and
under great disadvantages; of steady,
persistent and self-denying toll, often
performed amidst the jeers of persons
who lightly pronounced him an en
thusiast and a "crank." But the young
man at last succeeded, and In doing so
added new and far-reaching iields of
inquiry to the domain of modern sci
ence. The Instrument Kxhihited.
That Investigator was Professor
Jesse C. Coles; the result of his
Inquiry is comprised In an Instru
ment called the "Electric Eye,"
of which The Tribune, more than
a year ago, printed a partial descrip
tion. At the time of this former pub
lication tl(e professor had not per
fected his mysterious mechanism to
the degree which he thought would war
rant a public exhibition. lie promised,
within a few we.-l;s, to explain by actual
demonstration much that seemed in
credible. An atlaek of illness, ending
in blood poisoning kept him from the
redemption of this promise until last
Saturday night, when a party of Scran
toniuns came to Kingston as the guest3
of Ir. 1. H. I In nil end were accorded
tin evening's observation of the "Elec
tric Kye" and, tlnuiigh the "Kye," a
glimpse at .Mars, then in unrivalled
bi'llliuncy in the eastern heavens.
The things about to be related were
Been, one after another, by six adult
persons who had not previously par
taken of so much as u drop of Sus
quehanna river water; they were seen
in an atmosphere originally surcharged,
jm far as the majority of the party was
concerned, with profound skepticism;
they are the cold, uncoloiv.l facts of1
the matter, told in the accurate lan
guage of exact description, such as
wculil pass as llrst class evidence in any
court of law; and yet those who read
tills article will not believe It.
.Looks I. Ike a Magic Lantern.
The VKl. ctrlc Kye." In the construc
tion of Which Professor Coles passed
the greater part ot fourteen years, hav
ing often no better tools than a Jack
knife und a. pair of pliers, in appearance
lesemblLS uu ordinary stereopticon,
doubled in size, it stands upon a box
like frame and Is mounted on small cas
ters, it has, at one end, a projecting
nozzle into which has been Inserted a
bowl-like, translucent china eye. At
the opposite end there is a small ap
erture about the diameter of a half dol
lar, through which the beholder looks,
in order to perceive the wonders with
in. On the top of the case of the mech
anism, there is a small glass cap, ar.
inch high and crowned with a small
disc of brass, having an opening the
size of the eye of a line cambric needle.
Over this minute aperture, a brass wlra
depends. At various points ulougslde
the body of the box which forms the
mechanism's main part, and also par
allel to the forward nozzle, and con
necting with the Interior of the box at
one end and. at the other end, with the
nozzle's outer terminus, similar wires
stretch. On one side of the main box
there Is a crank-like handle, which com
municates with the "Eye's" interior.
This handle is like the handle to a
windlass, and by it the inventor, with
evident exertion, gears the Internal
economy of bis appliance up to the de.
sired degree of Wonder-working activi
ty. At Several points there are knobs
and buttons which connect with the
stored poweiVof the "Eye's" interior
and assist In the regulation of its vls
uul flights.
I'ollyuogH and Leeches.
The first experiment of the evening
consisted of an examination of ordin
ary rain water, tinder the eaves of the
professor's house stood a barrel partly
full of stagnant drippings. One of the
visitors fetched a tumblerful, which to
nil appearances wasns clear and us pure
as the most crystalline spring of water.
,.A common pin was passed to half its
length into this water. The pin was
then lifted up and on Its point held a
siiiallgloliule of water probably as large
us a grain of flue table salt. This wa
ter was placed over the minute aper
ture which was likened to the eye of a
cambric needle, and not more than one
tweiitieth of the water reached the In
terior of the "Eye." An electric cir
cuit was then formed, the gearing crank
was screwed up until from the mechan
ism's Interior came a sound like the
ticking of a wheezy clock. Ten seconds
later, the room was partially darkened
and the. visitors were invited to "take
a look at the professor's aquarium."
In the Interior of the mechanism a
vlvi light shone, of a peculiarly soft
and yet distinct power. It resembled
buttled sunlight, and that Is what it
was, according to the professor's state
ment. In the glow of this illumination
the spectator beheld a globe of water
easily two feet in diameter, partially
tilled with most beautiful vegetation,
like moss and . small shrubR. Swim
ming ubout, at perfect ease, in this ex
panse of spore-filled fluid were hun
dreds of little micro-organisms, mag
nified so that some seemed as long and
as large as the familiar tadpole of one's
boyhood days. Several were even long
er than this, approxlmatine in nrc thp
ordinary leech. The great majority of
mess living, swimming beings were
smaller than this, however, and looked
like enlarged editions of what hov mil
"wlgglers" that inhabit rain water
when It hns stood for severt.l days ex-
pueu to me sun s rays.
Itccr Not l it to hrlnk.
"The 'Eye' tonight," said Professor
Coles, "Is not working under full pres
sure. 1 tun saving its strength for the
View we shall take of Mars. When the
'Eye' is placed under its maximum
pressure, It will mugnify 140,000 dlame
ers, and the micro-organisms, or anltn
nleulae as I call them,' which just now
looked like little pollywogs wiil appear
to be as large as ordinary brook trout.
In fact, It will be seen that every par
ticle of the wuter that we drink is liter
ally Inhabited, not only by one or two of
these anlmalculae,- but by myriads of
wiem, logeiner witn masses .of vegeta
tion which, as inagnllled in the 'Eye,'
resemble the sea mosses and sea weed
that a receding tide deposits on the
ocean's shore."
"Ugh," exclaimed one of the three
ladles present, "I don't believe I can
ever manage to drink water again!"
"What will you drink?" inquired Pro
fesor Coles.
'Well, milk or tea or beer, I suppose."
"Then," was the cheerful response,
"you'll simply swallow the same kind
of monsters, in another form; and if
you drink; beer, you 11 swallow uglier
ones and more of them than you've seen
tonight. V hy, the merest particle ot
beer, under the 'Eye,' discloses, great
masses of vegetation on which long,
green, repellant looking worms and in
sects are creeping and feeding. Beer
Is about the. worst stuff I know of,
and milk Is a pretty close seconl. But
now, If you wish, I will show y.! what
the human epidermis looks like."
Parasites on Our Bodies.
Upon the professor's requeBt, one of
the ladies bared her forearm over the
little aperture Into which the rain wa
ter had been placed the aperture had
meanwhile been made perfectly dry
and rubbed her linger three or four times
across the arm's surface. It should be
said in the lady's behulf that she has al
ways been a devout and consistent be
liever In the doctrine that cleanliness
Is next to godliness, and takes her dally
bath as regularly as she says her daily
prayer. To the ordinary eye, nothing
dropped from her wrist as a result of
this hasty abrasion, and several of the
spectators were inclined to treat the
test as a joke.
But when the 'Electric Eye" was
turned on, and the lady was accorded
the courtesy of a first glance at the
minute fraction of herself which the
professor assured his guests had got
Into the instrument's searching focus.
she fairly shrieked in amazement. Pic
tured against the Instrument's back
ground were dozens of fan-like, trans
lucent scales, ranging in size from the
flattened peeling of a goodly sized on
ion to the dimensions of the palm of
one's hand. Great, black streaks ap
peared onand around these scales, which
at first were inert; but presently there
were signs of life, and soon a little in
sect the size of a bed bug scooted from
one scale to another. He was followed
by others, smaller and larger, until in
the course of a few moments the en
tire perspective became one mass of
living, moving, clawing insects. One
of these seemed as large as the ordinary
house spider. Several resembled large
roacnes. utners seemed to be like the
greenish , many - legged, saw - clawed
worms that feed on maple, green to
bacco or tomato leaves. They chased
each other madly in and around these
big scales of abraded epidermis, some
climbing up over the scales and shak
ing them after the manner of crickets
or pinching bugs when clambering over
small, dried leaves. The big fellows
seemed to be in pursuit of the smaller
ones, and now and then one voracious
rascal would gulp down an unfortunate
youngster with the calm unconcern of
the monster pickerel fish when he
makes a dainty morsel of a cantured
shiner.
Is a Muss of Living Germs.
"The particles of epidermis which
look so large through this instrument."
explained Professor Coles, "are in real
ity lncomputably small. You couldn't
see them as Mrs. W brushed them
olf ; yet only a small percentage of those
mat she separated from the epidermis
of her arm fell Into the feed-hole of
the 'Eye.' There are, as you see. prob
ably a thousand of these diminutive
parasites in the view at which you
are looking. Yet all of these together
could stand under the point of the
finest needle ever invented, and yet not
feel crowded. Upon a square Inch of
human epidermis there must be mil
lions upon millions of perfectly devel
oped living organisms, as intelligent in
proportion, as are the Insects that we
daily encounter among plants and ferns
and shrubs. I am as sure as that I am
standing here that the human body
Is literally made up of these parasites;
that they constitute the motive power
of our existence, so to speak, and that,
if we could go far enough Into this
question, each one of these Infinitesi
mal beings In turn would be found
to be just as thickly inhabitated by
correspondingly smaller parasites. Our
common science, for instance, claims
to have discovered that the ordinary
house fly is lnhubtted by fly-lice. I
propose before 1 get through with my
Inquiries, to prove to the scientists that
the fly-lice also have lice on them; and
furthermore, 1 am going to show these
lice on the lice that live on the house
fly, just as clearly as I have shown
you the parasite that inhabits Mrs.
W 's arm. I cannot do this with my
present Instrument, for it Is crude and
imperfect in many particulars; but I
hope within six months at the outside
to have a new and larger instrument
which will enlarge tlie magnifying
power of the present 'Electric Eye' four
or five times over."
Inhabitants of Our lllood.
The profesor was asked to exhibit
some human blood. The same lady
who had supplied the epidermis kindly
volunteered to sacrifice a drop of her
vital fluid to the cause of science. The
merest quantity of It, almost invisible
to the human eye, was placed, as be
fore. The fcpectacle presented was
marvelously beautiful. It seemed as
if all the colors and combinations of the
kaleidoscope had been brought Into
play. White corpuscles as large as
hen's eggs flonti'd around In a pool of
colorless liquid, alternating with great
masses of red and brown coloring mat
ter. As many as seven different kinds
of corpuscles were disclosed, whereas
the physiologists up to this moment
have taught that there are only two
kinds, red and white.
When Dr. Hand looked at these float
ing bodies of fibrin and fat, he turned
quickly around to Mrs. W and said:
"Your blood Is In a very bad condition.
It needs phosphntes and Iron. The
white globules should be round and
distinct; they are. Instead, flat and de
pressed. You will need to go under
a treatment of mild tonics."
"Now," said Professor Coles, "you
come to one of tlie most important uses
of my machine. I contend that by a
series of studies of the human blood
through the powerful magnifier it will
be possible to make diagnosis an abso
lute certainty. The physician will be
able to ascertain at a glance exactly
wiiat his patient Is afflicted with, and
can apply the requisite cure without a
moment's delay, watching Its effects
with unerring precision. As I have
said before, the 'Eye' tonight Is under
low pressure. When it is magnifying
its maximum .number of diameters,
you can see. In the blood, floating
around among the corpuscles, Just such
living organisms as you saw a few mo
ments ago playing among the scales of
Mrs. W 's epidermis. The blood Is
the medium of exchange between these
tiny travelers. The veins and arteries
are the rivers that they swim In and
the blood is the water that flows in
those rivers.'
Brief Glimpcs of Mars.
By this time, the planet Mars had
reached the fulness of its brilliancy and
shone, like an Immense gem, in the
eastern firmament,
"Let us take a peep at the sphere
which the scientists are having so much,
trouble over," said the professor.
"Do you mean to tell us," was the re
ply, "that your microscope Is at one
and the same time an equally powerful
telescope?"
"I do. Yes, I know it Is 'contrary to
science.' A good many things that I do
and say Rnd see and know are) 'contrary
to science'; but then, you know, science
Isn't absolute. I used to believe what
the text books told me. Now I am get
ting ready to revise the text books."
"But how do you keepthe 'Eye fixed
on a moving star? By ttie time you get
it focussed on Mars, Alars will have
moved thousands of nitles out of range,
will it not?" (
"I am glad you astted that question.
If the 'Eye' were anirdlnary telescope,
yes. But it isn't. At is as nearly like
the human eye inf the particular you
mention as crude human mechanism
can be like Divine creation. When you
look at a moving trfnn, does the train
get out of range while you are adjust
ing the focus, or do ts your eye move In
-7
unison with the train? To be sure, it
moves. Well, its that same principle
which governs the 'Electric Eye.' But
let us see for ourselves."
In a moment the mechanism was
pointed out the eastern door, properly
elevated and nicely focussed.
"Now is your time," exclaimed the
professor. "It Is an exceptionally fine
view of Mars. You can see every de
tail distinctly."
Seemed Only Four Miles Away.
The panorama that unfolded Itself
bore fewer startling features than any
thnt had preceded. It looked like a
landscape such as one would see, stand
ing on one range of hills and looking
across a valley three or four miles wide,
to the opposite hills. There was a white
center, which looked as If It might be
water possibly a lake. On the nearer
side of this lake stood a range of hills,
their sides and slope dotted In places
by dim objects which looked like tower
ing tropical palms. In the background,
another range of hills, some touched at
the top by a white, misty substance
which might have been fog or snow,
completed the view.
"Now I wUl 'snap' that 'shot' for
you," said the professor; and suiting
the action to the word he drew back a
springy steel wire, let It go suddenly,
forming an electric current; there was
a slight sound as of the rattling of a
pan, and Professor Coles drew forth
from the body of his mechanism a
sheet of common white wrapping pa
per upon which a perfect disc picture
of the foregoing scene was printed in
black shading. The picture looked like
a charcoal drawing of remarkable
delicacy, but the surface of the paper
was perfectly smooth and unruffled.
Another view of Mars was taken, pre
senting a forest Bcene of exceptional
distinctness, with mountains in the rear.
This scene was similarly photographed,
upon paper which one of the visitors
supplied, and upon which each person
had first written his name for purposes
of identification. A third view of Mars
was attempted, but by this time the
Eye had grown weary of the pro
longed strain upon its optic nerves,
and incontinently went to sleep.
Tbe Principle of the Thing.
"Upon what principle does this me
chanism work?" Professor Coles was
asked.
"Upon the principle of light linked to
electricity. Light is a fast steed, and so
is electricity. Yoke the two together,
and you have a speedy team."
"But how did VOU come tn think nt
this?"
"By reason of the thunder storm and
the china placque that I told you of, a
While ago."
"Is Mars Inhabited?"
"To the best of my belief, it Is, and by
a race superior in intelligence to our
own. Mars has three satellites, each
stronger than our moon. Yes, I know
school book astronomy says there are
only two; but I tell you there are three.
I have seen them. Besides, speaking of
the Marslans, they get ten or a dozen
times as much sunlight as we do. I
figure It out that their night Is as bright
as our brightest day. They must, there
fore, be more intelligent than we. Light
means brains, always."
"But what about the disturbances
said to be going on In Mars? Are they
real, or are the astronomers dreaming?"
"They are real enough. I have rea
son to believe that Mars, at its south
ern pole, has not yet got down to a
solid business basis. Great eruptions
and internal convulsions have been oc
curring there during the past few
months. The equatorial zone is solid
enough. Here the country Is in a fine
state of cultivation. It is laid out into
rivers and lakes and canals. I haven't
been able to Identify any human being
on Mars, but I can plainly see evidences
of man's handiwork, and I believe It
will be possible to locate them and find
out how they are getting along up there
In that sultry climate."
Plans for the Future.
"What are your plans, professor?"
"Well, they will depend somewhat on
circumstances. I am building a work
shop, where I shall have the proper
room and light and tools. I expect to
have some skillful physician make a
Btudy of all the germs of disease, In
the Identification and treatment of
which there is a fabulous fortune. Then
I propose soon to publish a book, which
Is already in manuscript, on 'The Hu
man Body as Seen Through the Electric
Eye.' Strange as It may seem, I pro
pose also to store sunlight and let it out
on demand. I can do that now, on a
small scale. If my experiments suc
ceed, electricity, as an Ulumlnant, will
be outclassed by conserved sunlight,
which will be at once lighter, safer and
cheaper. This sounds to ordinary ears
like a fairy tale, I'll admit; but It is the
actual fact, based on long and hopeful
experiments. Heretofore I have been
handicapped in every way. Now I have
means, friends and renewed health, and
a new 'Eye' four times as effectual as
the one you have just seen, Is a proba
bility of the next few months."
And after what one had seen, what
could one say? Livy S, Richard.
