FROM FICTION TO FACT.

WELLS’S “INVISIBLE MAN’ Invention of Austrian Engineers. Press Association —Copyright. Received 10.45 a.m. London, April 19. The News-Chronicle’s Vienna correspondent says: “Mr. H. G. Wells’s ‘lnvisible Man’ has been translated from fiction into fact by the invention of three engineers of Graz (140 miles from Vienna), who demonstrated a method of making persons and objects disappear by means of a combination of three kinds of electric rays. “Objects with a temperature of 200 degrees are not susceptible. “In one experiment a candle vanished while the flame was still visible.”
