Issue 344 of the dime novel Boys' Star Library featured the story "Jack Wright and His Electric Stage; or, Leagued Against the James Boys" by NONAME. Luis Senarens wrote a series of science fiction stories about the brilliant inventor. The electric stage is aptly named "Terror." Be sure to click on the image to see a larger version.
