Supplying Power To A Mullard Vacuum Tube

How would a curious young gentleman like myself go about supplying power to a Mullard vacuum tube? I have several different types of Mullard tubes, but no idea as to how I can generate the electron beam.

P.S. If side-effects of solution include death, injury or Hannah Montana please do not post.
 
on Phys.org
I had a pair of Mullard EL-34 pentodes as the final push-pull stage in a big vacuum tube audio amplifier. As I recall, the plates ran so hot that they turned red. See

Here is a data sheet

Max plate current, voltage is 100 mA, 250 V

The difference between the max supply voltage and anode voltage is the cathode bias resistor IR drop from cathode to ground.
Finally found a Mullard datasheet for EL-34:
