THE AsTERoID EROS.
Its Light Has Been Found to Fluctu-
ate Systematically.

The asteroid discovered by Herr Witt
in 1897 and temporarily named ID O. by
him, was soon found to be more re-
markabIe object than any of the 40 other
minor planets in the astronomers cat
alogues. The orbit of Mars lies outside
that of the earth and most of the aster-
ODDS keep outside of the path Of Mars.
But Eros pursues course that overiaps
that of Mars, and approaches within h.
000.0co miles OF the earths orbit at one
point. For this reason the astronomers
have recently been trying to utilize that
tiny object in determining the suns dis
lance from the earth.
While thus engaged they appear to have
made q new discovery concerning the az
teroid. 1t is alleged that its brightness
varies within certain limits at short in
tervals. Two papers on the subject have
just been contributed TO the Complies
Rendus." NJ. Rossard, Of Toulouse, after
studying Eros with glass of ten inches
aperture on three successive nights last
month decided that 1t ranged from
magnitude of 9.3 to IL, and returned to the
former brightness In periods of about two
hours and twenty-five minutes. The de-
gree OF fluctuations was determined by
comparison with fixed stars in the vi
cinity.
NJ Rossard reports that the rise in
brilliancy from minimum to maximum
occurs in fifteen minutes less than the de-
cline. The second contribution, a mere
note by III. Andre, puts the period at
about six hours. This statement is so
different from NJ. Rossard's that further
testimony is necessary.
Hundreds of stars which are believed to
be as big as our sun are variable. but in
all cases these objects are hot enough to
shine by their own light But the aster-
oids are small, cold. and non-luminous.
Not more than four or five have diane
tiers exceeding 100 miles. Eros is proba-
bly, not over twenty or twenty-five miles
through. We see the asteroids We see
the moon. because the light Of the sun
falls on them.
Variable stars are divided into two
classes. AS to the cause of the fuctua-
ton in one CLASSIFY far the larger-there
is a good deal of uncertainty. But In the
other kind, those like Algol. astronomers
incline to believe that the variability is
due to a partial eclipse. The star is sup
posed to have a companion. Just as the
earth has a moon. And If they revolve
around a common centre in the proper
plane the small one will partially conceal
the big one at regular intervals. 1t Is
easy to understand this performance when
one body is bright and the other dark,
relatively if not absolutely. But the ex-
PLANTATION does not fit so well where both
bodies are dark and are visible only by re-
fiected light. Moreover. the diminution in
the brightness of a variable of the Algol
type occurs at the same rate as the in
crease. Hence a good deal more observa-
ton is required before the mystery of
Eros can be cleared up. In the mean
time though, the superstition that it con-
sists of two objects instead of only one
is professionally tenable.

Josef Hofmann's Farewell.

A great many local music lovers heard
Josef Holman upon the occasion of his
first visit few weeks ago. but many
others We're unable 20 listen to his mar
velous playing. Opportunity to repair
the omission will be accorded to all such
delinauents on next Thursday afternoon
at the National Theatre when the pianist
will interpret a farewell programme on
the eve OF his departure for Europe
Far and wide now the whilom prod
igy' is hailed as an inspired genius of the
piano Musicians of his stamp, like po-
cts. ARE born. not made" An enthu-
siastic press agent writes that no amount
of practice and ploddng could produce
another Holman. Nature has endowed
him with a facility Of tone painting that
cannot be acquired by the most talented
enthusiast His accomplishment is the
product of unmista&able genius. 1t is this
unique qualification that lifts this fluent
internreter of the music of the masters
above and beyond the realm of the race
known as technical experts.
Hofmann's managers say they are con-
tent 10 announce his engagements with
ont the customary drum-beating and
trumpeting, being conscious of the fact
that the musical community estimates
the true value Of his genius and that to
proclaim il vociferousiy would be both
undignliied and superfiuous.

The GabriIOwitsch Recital Next
Wednesday,.

The popularity throughout the entire
country of the young Russian pianist,
Gabrilowitsch, who is to make his only
Washington appearance this season at
the Columbia Theatre next Wednesday
afternoon at Ais, seems to increase with
every concert given. and that his recital
here will be another great success is evil
denced by the large advance sale of seats
and boxes at Sanders & Stayman's store.
The demand for the services of this re-
markabie virtuoso has been unusual In
this country. and wherever Gabrilowitsch
has played the same unlimited interest
and admiration have appeared When he
