Personal - Mr. Nikola Tesla (Relating to the death of Tesla's mother)

This distinguished electrician has returned to New York, arriving by the "Augusta Victoria," from Hamburg, on August 27. Mr. Tesla sustained a severe bereavement while in Europe in the death of his mother, and was obliged to rest for some time. His magnificent reception at the hands of European electricians has become, like his inventions and researches, part of electrical history; and the honors conferred on him were such as to make Americans very proud of one who has chosen this country as his home.
