WHERE SCIENCE
STANDS TO-DAY
Of matter something like the follow

OF matter something like the follow
ing:
Imagine a great number of small
electrified particles scattered about
thru a large empty space and flying
freely in all directions, but retaining
the general form of a cluster-nOt
moving in straight lines, that is, but
in orbits-each flying with immense
speed inside the cluster, and the clus-
ter slowly drifting along like swarm
Of bees. That cluster represents the
most modern conception Of the atom.
It cannot possibly be the final and
complete truth, but It Is clearly a step
in the direction Of the truth, and in
| that form alone can it be put forward
to-day. .5.!y -
But If we liken the atom of matter
to a slowly drifting swarm Of quickly
| flying bees, we must be prepared to
picture the bees as very much smaller
than any ordinary insects, or else the
| swarm as very much enlarged. = II the
swarm Is Of ordinary size, say a yard
or two in diameter, the insects which
| compose it must be microscopic-too
small to be seen with the naked eye
if the proportion Is to be preserved
which is now strongly suspected and
almost known to exist between the
atom and its constituent electric
charges. The size, the weight, the
velocity and the number Of the par
ticles is being, and partially has been
determined. Suffice it to say that the
speed Is such that a rifle bullet is slow
and almost stationary in comparison
and the number of bodies in a cluster
is to be reckoned by hundreds OF thou
sands for the case Of every one Of the
heavier sort of atoms.
Every now and then one of these
quickly flying particles escape from
the group and rushes away in I
straight line.

The Breakup of the Elements.

On the new view, the elemental
atoms are no longer believed to be
permanent and constant in form. He
lium has been seen to come into ex-
istence de novo, in the course Of a
few days, appearing in sealed tube,
into which nothing resembling helium
was put, originating from a previous
ly existing element which was not
helium, nor any compound of helium,
but which has demonstrative1y tum-
bled down into helium and other at
present unknown substances.
Soft appears that the elements are
not immutable; one element. may
change or break up into others, and,
tho the process in general is extreme
ly slow, it is probably true OF every
form Of matter that, tho the substra-
tum and basis Is fixed and constant IN
quantity. its mode of chemical and
physical manifestation is liable to
change: sometimes exhibiting itself in
the form Of radium. sometimes in the
form OF helium. sometimes perhaps
of copper, sometimes, let us say, OF
lead; and again sometimes in none of
these so-called material forms, but ex-
hibiting itself in the ! strange and
ghostly form Of matter called "elec-
| tricity.

A great deal more experimental in

Suppose that the new views of mat

be considered that they constitute a

The Active Atom.

This is called radio-activity. The
result Of radio-activity is to disturb
the equilibrium Of the remaining
group, SO that it is liable to break up
into two parts, usually a relatively
small part and relatively large one
one, say. one-hundred times the
mass Of the other. If the group which
breaks up is an atom Of radium, the
smaller part is now known to be he
liu1n, and the larger part Is very UNI
stable. so that the breaking up, once
begun, continues, until considera-
BILE number Of atoms OF helium may
be formed in a few days; and what
the residue Of the atom has by that
time become Is not yet known, It is
hardly likely that it all breaks up into
one single substance.

most strongly developed in radium
was not first discovered there, and il
is now found. to exist in many other
INSTANCES perhaps in all; II SO, We
