A WHISTLER PICTURE.
The Story Of Henry Irvins's Portrait
as Philip ~.

The queer ups and downs OF pic
ture are illustrated by the history Of
the portrait by Whistler of Henry Ir-
wing as Philip III. Of Spain, now hang
Ing In the Metropolitan museum, In
New York. Whistler at a precarious
period of his career asked his friend
Irving to sit to him for portrait In
the character In which Irving was
then playing, Philip IL. The portrait
was painted. and Irving, much pleas
ed. requested Whistler TO let him buy
il and 10 name a price not too high
for his slender purse. Having had the
pleasure of Whistler's acquaintance,
the writer can imagine the following
conversation:
Not too high, JIMMY You know
aha-that actors-now, modestly, jim
myw
"My dear Irving, It's q masterpiece,
but you shall have 1t for song-lst
us say a thousand pounds"
TOO much. Jimmy-too much!"
Whistler kept the portrait. Soon
after. in one OF those unpleasant exps
riences which he shared with his
great master, Rembrandt, be was sold
out for debt. Rembrandt was sold
out only twice The Butterfly" un-
derwent three such forced sales.
Irving heard Of the sale. Unknown
to Whistler. he was able TO buy bis
portrait at the auction for a song, and
then in a spirit OF friendly retaliation
he invited the Butterfly To dinner
After the coffee and cigars he remark
ed. aha. my dear Jimmy. you must
see my latest acquisition" and invited
him in TO see his pictures. not men
tioning the fact that be had bought
the portrait. Whistler went from one
picture 20 another. criticisiDg, admir-
ing. with that subtle. biting wit OF his.
and. coming In front Of the portrait,
he gayly remarked: AHA! What have
we here? My congratulations. Henry
the best picture In your collection?
he never turned a hair. This picture
after Irving's death brought $4,000
at auction in London. and we are
lucky 10 have Il here now. This was
a legitimate advance IN price. and the
picture is worth It. The few pounds
that Irving paid was one Of those for
tuitous hazards Of the auction room.-

RADIUM RAYS.
Their Velocity the Highest Known
Speed Of Matter In Motion.

Their Velocity the Hi0hest known
Speed Of Matter In Motion.
The earth travels in its orbit round
the sun nineteen miles second. The
sun itself. like all the other stars, has
its own proper motion through space.
Some authorities have calculated its
speed at twelve miles second a
few stars move more slowly than this.
others much more rapidly. Arcturus
maintains n speed OF not less than 100
miles a second, and the star called
"Groombridge 1890" travels 100 miles
I'm the same brief time.
But the speeds OF the heavenly bod
les are slow compared with the mo
tions OF the tiniest known particles OF
matter. The sun would seem to stand
still could we compare it's velocity with
that OF the radium rays" These ra.
diations are produced by successive eI-
plosions OF tiny groups Of the tiny
atoms OF radium The "alpha rays"
being themselves infinltesimal frag-
ments Of matter. are thrown out with
a velocity Of perhaps 1900 miles a
second The beta rays" travel still
faster.
In the emanations or this wonderful
radium We find the highest known
speed Of matter in motion. 50 1900
miles a second II would take little
more than TWO seconds for particle
OF matter 20 travel all the way round
the earth. Look nj sJur watch and
note the duration OF two seconds; then
imagine that in a chariot drawn by
alpha rays" you have been round the
world. There is hardly time In two
seconds for you TO think the Journey.
The highest measured speed. how
ever. is not the speed of matter. but
the speed OF that etheric vibration
which We call light And light trav.
els at the rate Of $4,000 miles a sec
