A NEW FIELD IN SCIENCE.
Brainy MEMS Claim to New Process
of Chenp Gold Manufacture.

OF lineup ooAu
The possibility of making gold out
Of cheap substances Is being extern
sively discussed by scientists at Paris.
The topic would have been discussed 4
few years ago as a crazy revival OF
medieval alchemy, but since the re-
nowned Chemist Berthelot's discoveries
and remarkable assertion that gold Is
probably a compound substance In
stead of being a simple metal an I'M
portant school OF scientists has pre-
dicte,l that gold will be manufactured
rs cheaply as butter some day. Mean
while the French Society Of Modern
Alchemy claims that three Of its men,
~bers-Jollivet, De Lussus and lIeoghe,
all chemists Of reputation-have just
completed n successful synthesis of
gold. About half an ounce was pro-
duced, and II took six months to do II.
Professor Berthelot is unwilling TO
give an opinion about 1t without know
ing the details of the process and ex-
aiming the product obtained, but he
says:
Until now chemistry has been a
study Of only immediate reactions, yet
slow reactions-by which | mean those
taking from n month TO two or three
years-are suspected, and this will open
quite n new field vi science. Possibly
metals might be decomposed into sew
eral elements. If they n be so treat
ed, they likewise can be recombined."
Camille Flammarion, to whom was
given an opportunity to examine the
artificial gold, says: ut presents all
the outward characteristics of real
gold. | shall never pronounce any
thing impossible In science unless it is
so mathematically."
