PENRosE VERSUS ROOSEVELT.

Pennsylvania's Republican convention will meet
tomorrow its business of largest national importance
being the selection Of twelve delegates at large to
the national convention. But beyond that, it will
nominate State ticket, reorganize the State COM
mttee and elect new State chairman.
Boies Penrose's gang has been particularly ac-
tive since the primaries, trying to compromise"
itself into continued control of the State government
and party machinery. Penrose's own political neck
is at stake for if he cannot keep his grip on State
power and punder, he will have a desperate fight
to renstate himself later, and get reelected to the
Senate.
Money and corporation influence have been
brought to bear, according to reports from Harris
burg to bring some Roosevelt delegates over to the
machines side in State affairs. The gang pleads
that as Roosevelt and the progressives are certain
of the national delegation, they ought to give the
scraps to the organization thus assuring harmony and
Republican success.
To this plea the direct answer has come in
Colonel Roosevelt's letter received yesterday by
every delegate. He thanked them for support of
himself, and expressed hope that they would 60
through with the task of reforming the party making
it progressive all the way through.
This is the complete illustration of what the
Roosevelt candidacy and the Roosevelt movement
mean to the country. Mr.. Roosevelt is fighting the
bosses; the Senate bosses the House Of Representa-
tive bosses, the State bosses.
That is the basic spirit, purpose and motive OF
his fight 1t is what has given impetus and en-
thusasm to his followers.
1t is what overturned the Lorimer-Big Business
combination in Chicago
1t wrecked the old Hale machine in Maine shat
tered the ancient oligarchy in Indiana, and struck
terror into the job-holdng bosses of Indiana.
Mr.. Roosevelts letter to the Pennsylvania dele
gates is earnest of what may be expected of hin,
if he becomes President He will carry this fight or
the bosses to every department Of national life, tc
the States and cities, as we'll as to national affairs
He will give that vigorous, effective determined
leadership Of which he has proved himself so splen
ddly capable, to the movement for reform every
where.
Roosevelt's movement is at bottom fight tc
get the Government back into the hands of the peo
pie; and it is succeeding because it is just that.
Roosevelt's leadership in the nation for another
four years the completion of the task to which
he made such large contributions during his former
term.
1t means cleaning out the vicious old combina
ton that runs Massachusetts under the Crane
leadership; it means an end of Penrose in Pennsyl
vania, of Cox in Ohio, of Hemenway and Realm il
Indiana, of Lorimer and his outfit in Illinois.
1t means a great national cleaning-up; nd
is because the nation is bent on getting this, tina
it is hockng to Roosevelts standard.
| Pennsylvania is just a beginning. 1t ought t
be made good and thorough in this week
convention.

Family Forgives
Mrs. Jack Geraghty,
Eloping Heiress
Especial Dispatch to The Journal,

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
NEWPORT, r. l., Nov. 5.-The much
talked of reconciliation between Mrs.
John e. Geraghty and her family took
place today. when Mrs. Geraghty was
taken from the Newport hospital to the
home of her mother. Mrs. Amos Tuck
French. in Red Cross avenue.
The fact that she was in a hospital
was sufficient to soften the feelings of
her family toward her, especially those
of her grandmother, Mrs. Stuyvesant
Leroy. The latter has missed her much
since the separation, as they were al
ways together, and Mrs. Leroy has not
been in the same health since the mar
riage of her granddaughter. The
Homecoming was of necessity a very
quiet affair, but it is konwn that the
reconciliation is complete. The French
family. however, refuses to see Geragh-
ty and never call at the latter's home.
Mrs. Geraghty, who was Miss Julia
French, heiress to the Amos Tuck
French millions, eloped with Jack
Geraghty, a Newport chauffeur, and
was promptly disowned by her family.
When the clippers first returned to New
port they went to live with the parents
Of the bridegroom, but later they moved
into q cottage of their own.

Dear Miss Thomas: 1t does my heart good

OF the finest ladies in the land. May God bless
her that she may live to see many more years

me to know that the law is being so neg
leeted. 1t is not only in Georgia, but in

Peter and those other servants of the Lord

you are only pretending to be aslep to get out

ATLANTA
GRIFFIN WOMAN CLAIMS TO
HAVE SOLVED MYSTERY OF
SHADOW OF THE CROSS"

the proper places, and the phenomenon
was explained
Looking at the picture in the light OF
day there was nothing visible but the
picture on the beach, with the weather.
beaten fisherman, the background of
waves and a few sun-kissed clouds in
the sky.
TRANSFORMED BY DARK.
When the picture was taken into a
darkened room it's transformation was
wonderful. The fisherman was still
plainly discernible, the sea had lost
none of it's grandeur, and only a short
distance from the beach was the fisher
mans sloop. Mrs. Taylor says it ex-
plains the phenomena of that painting.
She says that had Mr.. Ahl finished his
picture he could not have given it the
strange power he did, but he was COM
PEELED to leave tine background unfin-
ished to bring out the luminous paints
used on the cross and which were only
seen when the picture was placed in
dark room.
1.-THE Shadow of the Cross" was
painted by Henry Hammond ALL, who
studied and painted in the art centers
of the Old World for many years. He
returned to mis- native land in 1896 and
established a studio in a New England
city, where for some time he painted
principally portraits and landscapes.
Acting upon the advice of friends he
finally commenced painting a full length
picture of Christ, but he did not sue
coed in attaining his ideal, and the
canvas stood source of trouble and
veXation. Among those who saw the
picture was a we'll known lecturer on
Biblical characters VINO attempted to
make the artist understand the appear
ance of Christ as revealed to him in a
dream. At last the artist realized that
he had conceived the idea sought after
and he Immediately painted the wonder
fully beautiful countenance of Christ
which is seen in the picture.
Not long after SO the story goes, the
artist having occasion to go to his
studio one night, was astounded to dis
cover, on entering, that his picture
could be dIstinctively seen in the dark,
and that Christ appeared to be walking
in the pale moonlight, while above and
behind could be seen a cross. His first
impression was that the moon was shin
ing through an open window, upon the
picture, and that the cross was a
shadow.
On closer inspection he discovered
That strange phenomenon had taken
place, so the artist claims. AS he had
not thought of a cross In connection
with this picture, and had used only
well known pigments. he realized that
the strange quality Of the picture was
beyond his power to explain. He claims
to have been so profoundly impressed
that he refused to finish it, and the
picture remains unfinished to this day
Since then the picture has been exhib-
tied all over this country and created
a sensation among clergy and scientific
men.
Scientists have declared that there is
nothing known to chemistry that will
cause the wonderful amount of luminos-
ity, that emanates from the picture and
those who have been exhibiting it claim
to make no attempt to explain the sim
gular phenomena, yet Mrs. Taylor con-
tends she has discovered the secret and
now has in her studio a painting pos
sessing the same qualities.

Some years ago DR.. w. T. Bobo, of Battle

Mrs, Ida C, Taylor Has Very
Strangely Similar Painting
Which Can Be Seen in the
Dark
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)


GRIFFIN, Ga, Nov. Alas the phe-
nomenon Of the wonderful painting OF
Henry Hammond ALL, The Shadow of
the Cross" been solved?
There is painting in this city which
has the peculiar characteristics which
have made "The Shadow of the Cross.
the most talked of painting of modern
times and have caused great crowds to
view it wherever it has been placed on
exhibition.
The artist who has in her Griffin stu
dlo picture which she claims reveals
the secret Of THE Shadow of the
Cross" is Mrs. Ida C. Taylor, a young
artist who is just entering upon her
life's work as a painter. And she SUBJ
stimulates her claims by exhibiting a
painting she has just completed that
has the same apparently supernatural
elements as those of THE Shadow of
the Cross"
There is no doubt about that fact, as
people in Griffin who have seen both
paintings declare there is as much evil
dence of the supernatural in one as in
the other, and Mrs. Taylor does not
claim any unseen or miraculous aid in
her work, but it is the result of her
earnest efforts to solve the secret of
tn Ali painting. The only remarka-
bic thing about it says Mrs. Taylor,
Us that the people were so long in dis
covering the secret, which is none other
than that the artist used either lumin-
Gus paints or luminous cardboard.
STUDIED PHENOMENON.
When the Shadow of the Cross" was
exhibited in Griffin several months ago,
terested visitors at its exhibition and
while she was struck with the beauty
OF the picture she believed there was
some trick in the strange quality which
showed cross behind the figure of
Christ when enclosed in a dark room
She spent much time in considering
the strange phenomenon, and it was
weeks before she arrived at what she
believed to be the solution of the mys-
terry. She told none of her theory but
went quietly to work to test her con-
victions.
She determined to paint picture that
would have the same mysterious quality
as the Shadow of the Cross" She
chose as her subject typical fisherman
standing on the beach as If just re-
turned from fishing expedition She
gave him the same background as did
Mr.. Ali in his famous painting-the
waves of the restless sea. Instead of
using the usual canvas, Mrs Taylor fas-
tened to the canvas a sheet of luminous
card board and first painted on it sail
Ing sloop such as are usually owned by
the better class of fishermen. Then aft
er painting the portrait of the man. she
painted the background of waves in the
same unfinished manner of the paint
ing she was endeavoring to expose,
leaving the luminous board exposed at
