Notes and Queries, Number 218, December 31, 1853 A Medium of Inter-communication for Literary Men, Artists, Antiquaries, Genealogists, etc It was apparently nothing more or less than a giant Crookes tube, connected in some way with a complicated mechanism contained in a wooden cabinet under the table. Astounding Stories of Super-Science, March 1930 She then took Mr. Crookes' hand and made the tour of the room, pressing the hand of each of us in turn. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z But no flash of lightning rent the halls of learning; Sir William Crookes' researches into radiant matter could safely be accepted as workable 63 intellectual ground, but not his researches into spiritual dynamics. Mountain Meditations and some subjects of the day and the war All these things Sir William Crookes did upon his own premises and under the most rigid scientific conditions. Elementary Theosophy Again, Mr. Crookes considers the free iodine to be the cause of the colouring of the collodion; will he then kindly explain its modus operandi? Notes and Queries, Number 218, December 31, 1853 A Medium of Inter-communication for Literary Men, Artists, Antiquaries, Genealogists, etc The whole party began to look uneasy and gazed apprehensively at the huge Crookes tube which still stood in its supporting frame on the table. Astounding Stories of Super-Science, March 1930 But the investigations of Crookes were conducted with such care and competence, that it is very difficult to refuse our credence. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z Lenard found that rays from a Crookes' tube passed through substances opaque to common light. Little Masterpieces of Science: Invention and Discovery As Sir William Crookes was the earliest, Sir Oliver Lodge is the latest of the famous scientists who have taken up the investigation of the continuity of consciousness. Elementary Theosophy But Home, or the spirits proved too strong for even Sir William Crookes and his instruments. Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters Somewhat later William Crookes of London, an equally famous chemist and physicist, entered upon a similar investigation, and with like results. Man And His Ancestor A Study In Evolution As to the explanation of the phenomena, Crookes thinks that we cannot discover it. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z Crookes in a vacuous bulb produced soft light from high tension electricity. Little Masterpieces of Science: Invention and Discovery I have looked carefully for a reply to some former Queries respecting Mr. Crookes's restoration of old collodion, but at present they have failed in appearance. Notes and Queries A Medium of Inter-communication for Literary Men, Artists, Antiquaries, Geneologists, etc Sir William Crookes, Sir Oliver Lodge, and Mr. Frank Podmore are other members of the society who have granted the outside world informative glimpses of its workings and discoveries. Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters Not even Sir William Crookes's vacua can give an idea of the rarefaction which this fact implies. A Popular History of Astronomy During the Nineteenth Century Fourth Edition Crookes has represented this experiment by a sketch in his memoir upon this subject. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z Philosophical Magazine of the present month contains a very important article by Messrs. Spiller and Crookes upon this great desideratum in photographic practice. Notes and Queries, Number 236, May 6, 1854 A Medium of Inter-communication for Literary Men, Artists, Antiquaries, Genealogists, etc No less than nine were detected by Crookes last year. Buchanan's Journal of Man, September 1887 Volume 1, Number 8 It is by the use of such a thread, I venture to suggest, that the watchful observation of Mr. Crookes and his colleagues was evaded. Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters C. E. F. Mr. Crookes on restoring old Collodion.—I am happy to explain to your correspondent what I consider to be the rationale of the process. Notes and Queries, Number 227, March 4, 1854 A Medium of Inter-communication for Literary Men, Artists, Antiquaries, Genealogists, etc. Professor Crookes sent his observations to the Royal Society, of which he is a member. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z Professor Crookes, of London, relates having seen and heard an accordion played on while it was enclosed in a wire net-work, and not touched by any visible hand. Modern Spiritualism Since then, Mr. Balfour, the present writer, and Professor William Crookes have held the presidential office. The Will to Believe : and Other Essays in Popular Philosophy Gen. Crookes said of the Apaches, that while they were protected on their reserves from outside aggression they were as well behaved and orderly as any community of people in the United States. Buchanan's Journal of Man, April 1887 Volume 1, Number 3 Already the Spiritualists number among them such men as Mr. Alfred Wallace, Mr. Varley, Mr. Crookes, Mr. S. C. Hall, &c., and are extending their operations amongst all classes of society, notably among the higher. Mystic London: or, Phases of occult life in the metropolis Professor Crookes scorned these arbitrary and anti-scientific judgments and denials and answered them by publishing the detailed description of his experiments. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z Let us begin with that great master of modern science, Sir William Crookes, the inventor of the 40celebrated "Crookes' Tubes," without which the discovery of the X-Ray and Radio-Activity would have been impossible. Genuine Mediumship or The Invisible Powers Numerous examples to the same end are supplied from India by Mr. W. Crookes and Sir A. C. Lyall. Theism or Atheism The Great Alternative In the Electro-magnetic theory of light we have again to think of atoms, which are termed electrons by Dr. Larmor and Sir William Crookes; while Professor J. J. Thompson calls them corpuscles. Aether and Gravitation On the 28th Mr. Crookes, Mr. Carpenter, and myself, guided by a military policeman who understood his work, explored the cavern. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 Professor Crookes got in touch with this new medium in December, 1873. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z Particularly, the report of Sir William Crookes, the eminent English scientist, will furnish such proof to the inquirer who demands "scientific proof" before he will believe anything out of the usual. Genuine Mediumship or The Invisible Powers At an adjourned meeting of that body, on 10th October, the secretary, Mr. Crookes, was instructed to propose a conference of delegates from each of the colonies, to be held at Victoria. The History of Tasmania, Volume I The researches of such living scientists as Sir William Crookes, Professor J. J. Thomson and others, have, however, made this dream come within the range of practical research and direct experiment. Aether and Gravitation From time to time we halted, while Mr. Crookes illuminated with ignited magnesium wire, the roof, columns, dependent spears, and graceful drapery of the stalactites. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 In The Spiritualist—a journal edited by Mr. Harrison, at whose home several sittings had taken place—there appeared in the numbers for February and March, 1874, two letters from Professor Crookes. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z You can't call Sir William Crookes, the inventor of the Crookes' Tubes, a dreamer! The Return of Peter Grimm Novelised From the Play Sir William Crookes had a similar experience, except in his case he saw the pencil move, prop itself against a ruler, and try three times to write—all in the light. The Tyranny of the Dark Old William Crookes paid into the Treasury the neat sum of one million and compromised the case. The Root of Evil The day brightened somewhat afterwards, and, having packed all up, in the sober twilight Mr. Crookes and myself climbed the heights above the fort of Vera Cruz. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 After the observations summarized in these two letters Professor Crookes continued his experiments at his own home, for a space of two months. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z By means of this we shall certainly gain those "new glimpses of a profounder scheme of cosmic law" to which Sir William Crookes refers and which his vision discerns as open to science. The Life Radiant Crookes and Wallace and several others went into the whole question at that time—the world rang with the controversy. The Tyranny of the Dark Dr. Imoda concluded—as the result of his experiments—that "the radiations of radium, the cathode radiations of the Crookes' tube, and mediumistic radiations are fundamentally the same." The Problems of Psychical Research Experiments and Theories in the Realm of the Supernormal My idealizator is the means of transforming psychons to quanta, just as, for instance, a Crookes tube or X-ray tube transforms matter to electrons. The Ideal At 7.23 in the evening Professor Crookes led Miss Cook into the dark cabinet, where she lay down upon the floor, her head resting on a cushion. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z The former are produced by the high tension electric apparatus, which we have described in the chapter relating to wireless telegraphy; and the latter, called also the Roentgen rays, are generated by the Crookes' Tube. Electricity for Boys Sir William Crookes, Sir Oliver Lodge, Alfred Russel Wallace, Lombroso have all been convinced of the reality of these phenomena. The Tyranny of the Dark Crookes' experiments, in particular, are very conclusive in this direction—his apparatus being very similar to that designed by Professor Alrutz. The Problems of Psychical Research Experiments and Theories in the Realm of the Supernormal "I have avoided doing so, for I respect Crookes as a chemist," he added. The Shadow World She next gave her last instructions to Mr. Crookes. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z In America he is called a "druggist," but "chemist" is better, even though it confuses a mere peddler of ammoniated quinine with Sir William Ramsay and Sir William Crookes. Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 146, January 28, 1914 "Sir William Crookes and Dr. Zöllner, you say, believed in these disembodied intelligences—" "Yes, but they belong to what Haeckel calls the imaginative scientists." The Tyranny of the Dark These experiments of Crookes are classical, and have never been "explained away." The Problems of Psychical Research Experiments and Theories in the Realm of the Supernormal Crookes might have induced his brother scientists at least to listen to his report had he stopped with this. The Shadow World This John King is said to be the brother of Crookes's Katie King, and to have been Eusapia's father in another existence. Mysterious Psychic Forces An Account of the Author's Investigations in Psychical Research, Together with Those of Other European Savants 2012-03-28T02:00:29.747Z The address of Professor William Crookes before the British Association, upon the “Genesis of the Elements,” is one of the most important contributions to chemical philosophy that has been published for a long time. Buchanan's Journal of Man, February 1887 Volume 1, Number 1 "We have our own observation, joined to the report of Crookes and Richet." The Tyranny of the Dark Sir William Crookes, the President of the Royal Society, came and became 'much impressed by the most ingenious and novel self-recording instruments.' Sir Jagadis Chunder Bose His Life and Speeches "We have a right to draw the line between Crookes the chemist and Crookes the befuddled dupe," insisted Miller. The Shadow World Mr. Crookes, who discovered this new metal in 1861, believes that the deep orange shade observable in some specimens of sulphide of cadmium is due to the presence of thallium. Field's Chromatography or Treatise on Colours and Pigments as Used by Artists Crookes used such ingenious methods that he reduced the gas in his tubes until it was twenty million times thinner than the atmosphere. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told Very well! that shall be as you wish; but it seems a shame now when we have such a wonderful chance to duplicate the Crookes' experiments. The Tyranny of the Dark Sir William Crookes has lately made some interesting observations on this subject. Mrs. Piper & the Society for Psychical Research I have had other cases of slate-writing which were almost as inexplicable, and Crookes and Wallace and Zöllner, as you remember, were quite convinced by evidence thus secured. The Shadow World Or consider the latest speculations on the composition of matter as contained in the works of Lodge, Crookes, and Lord Kelvin. Evolution An Investigation and a Critique Crookes at first thought they corresponded to a "new or fourth state of matter." The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told Since rereading Zöllner and Crookes and going over my notes and those of Dr. Randall, I'm a little shaken, I confess. The Tyranny of the Dark Sir William Crookes could see her and photograph her as much as he pleased; heedless of his environment, he published what seemed to him the truth. Mrs. Piper & the Society for Psychical Research "Didn't Crookes afterward repudiate that early report?" asked Miller. The Shadow World Sir William Crookes' experiments in these physical phenomena were carried on with him as medium. Modern Religious Cults and Movements Now Crookes really had the great secret under his eyes. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told This girl is repeating, substantially, the same phenomena witnessed by Crookes twenty-five years ago. The Tyranny of the Dark Mr. Crookes gives us a glimpse of the possibility of such unconscious co-existence of intelligent beings, and but a very slight effort of imagination is needed to realise the conception. Death—and After? They suggested Sir William Crookes, who was at this time in the early prime of his life and a renowned chemist—just the man for the work. The Shadow World Many years ago Geissler, Crookes, and other scientists studied the spectra of gases excited to incandescence by the electric discharge in so-called vacuum tubes. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization The atoms of matter were breaking down in Crookes tubes. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told "Have you ever witnessed any of these unaccountable doings which Crookes and Zöllner instance?" The Tyranny of the Dark The light reflected from fiery opals has been shown by Crookes to possess in many cases a high degree of purity, rivaling in this respect the reflection from chlorate of potash. Scientific American Supplement, No. 711, August 17, 1889 You scientists do him an injustice," I answered, with some heat, "just as you have all been ignorantly contemptuous of Crookes. The Shadow World Crookes studied the light from various gases by enclosing them in a tube which was pumped out until a low vacuum was produced. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization At that time, however, it was premature to think of such a thing, and Crookes preferred to say that the particles of the gas were electrified and hurled against the walls of the tube. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told We can say that we have no proof of such separation, but Crookes and others claim the contrary. The Tyranny of the Dark It is a sort of differential bombardment of the gas molecules on the two faces of a dust particle somewhat analogous to the action on Mr. Crookes' radiometer vanes. Scientific American Supplement, No. 443, June 28, 1884 It made me think of the substance described by Sir William Crookes and other experimenters abroad. The Shadow World This effect was studied by Sir William Crookes very profoundly. Occult Chemistry Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements He was following up the work of Lenard, and he one day covered a "Crookes tube" with some black stuff. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told It is curious to observe that we to-night have trenched on the very ground Crookes trod. The Tyranny of the Dark So, two days back, I wrote to Sir W. Crookes—the Honorary Secretary, who had written to me—accepting provisionally!... Alfred Russel Wallace: Letters and Reminiscences, Vol. 2 Crookes speaks of a milky-white vapor which condensed to a form, and Richet and Maxwell describe it as a sort of condensing process. The Shadow World So the windmills in the Crookes' vacuum tubes were supposed to be moved by the impact of electric atoms. Occult Chemistry Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements While the world wondered at these marvels, the men of science were eagerly following up the new clue to the mystery of matter which was exercising the mind of Crookes and other investigators. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told Crookes has presented to the Royal Society a paper on the color emitted by pure alumina when submitted to the electric discharge in vacuo, in answer to the statements of De Boisbaudran. Scientific American Supplement, No. 613, October 1, 1887 Crookes gave a suggestive and interesting, but in some ways rather misleading address as President of the Psychical Research Society. Alfred Russel Wallace: Letters and Reminiscences, Vol. 2 "Crookes saw in a full light an accordion playing beneath the touch of invisible fingers." The Shadow World Mr. Crookes' researches have led the more advanced chemists to regard the atoms as compound, as a more or less complex aggregation of protyle. Occult Chemistry Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements Physicists did not take long to discover that the radiation from radium was very like the radiation in a "Crookes tube." The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told In consequence of the opposite results obtained by De Boisbaudran, Crookes has now re-examined this question with a view to clear up the mystery. Scientific American Supplement, No. 613, October 1, 1887 My voice has so broken that unless I can improve it I fear not being heard, but Crookes promised to read it either wholly, or leaving to me the opening and concluding paragraphs. Alfred Russel Wallace: Letters and Reminiscences, Vol. 2 This single inexplicable moving of a mass of matter from A to B makes the experiments of Crookes and Maxwell very much more vital to me. The Shadow World It is worth while noting what Sir William Crookes, in his "Genesis of the Elements," remarks on the relations of the interperiodic group with its neighbours. Occult Chemistry Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements They proved what Crookes had surmised about the radiations he discovered in his vacuum tube. The Outline of Science, Vol. 1 (of 4) A Plain Story Simply Told Glass may be rendered fluorescent, as is seen in the Geisler and Crookes tubes. Notable Events of the Nineteenth Century Great Deeds of Men and Nations and the Progress of the World Crookes supported my proposal, and so did Lodge, and so would Myers if he had lived. Alfred Russel Wallace: Letters and Reminiscences, Vol. 2 But it was not until 1891 that anything like Crookes's searching analysis was made of a medium. The Shadow World B. Thus we have tabulated in all 65 chemical elements, or chemical atoms, completing three of Sir William Crookes' lemniscates, sufficient for some amount of generalization. Occult Chemistry Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements About 1869, Hittorf made an already very complete study of them and put in evidence their principal properties; but it was the researches of Sir W. Crookes in especial which drew attention to them. The New Physics and Its Evolution On that day Dr. Röntgen was working with a Crookes tube in his laboratory. Notable Events of the Nineteenth Century Great Deeds of Men and Nations and the Progress of the World Crookes made great improvements in air-pumps during an investigation on thallium, and consequently was able to obtain the high vacuum required for the experiment with the electron streams. Recent Developments in European Thought And the grace of her manner was so extraordinary that Lady Crookes and all who saw her became deeply enamoured of her. The Shadow World We have now reached the last of the groups as arranged on Sir William Crookes' lemniscates, that forming the "neutral" column; it is headed by helium, which is sui generis. Occult Chemistry Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements In the opinion of Crookes, in a tube in which the gas has been rarefied we are in presence of a special state of matter. The New Physics and Its Evolution The secondary currents are also always of the same sign, as are the currents in a Ruhmkorff coil, and as are the currents in high vacua with which Crookes has made us so familiar. Scientific American Supplement No. 822, October 3, 1891 It stood on end, like a huge packing-case, its side being perhaps five inches from the Crookes tube. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 But it must be confessed that in Crookes's pictures there is a lack of finality in the negatives. The Shadow World I only mention these circumstances because Mr. Crookes has stated that he knows no chemical preparation which would avert the ordinary action of heat. Modern Mythology Notwithstanding the success of Crookes' experiments, many physicists—the Germans especially—did not abandon an hypothesis entirely different from that of radiant matter. The New Physics and Its Evolution It would be difficult to prove that the experiments carried on for three years by Dr. Crookes in the presence of witnesses were cheats. Là-bas His success is, no doubt, largely due to the fact that for years he had been experimenting constantly with vacuum tubes similar to the Crookes tubes used in producing the cathode rays. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 Crookes got some photos of 'Katie King,' and I fully believe that Mrs. Smiley may be developed further. The Shadow World Consequently it is not as evidence to the fact that I cite Mr. Crookes, but for another purpose. Modern Mythology According to Crookes it possesses also the singular property of carrying with it electric charges. The New Physics and Its Evolution Soon afterwards Mr. Crookes, pursuing the same method, discovered the bright green band of Thallium, and obtained the salts of the metal which yielded it. Six Lectures on Light Delivered In The United States In 1872-1873 When I arrived, Professor Wright was at work with a Crookes tube, nearly spherical in shape, and about five inches in diameter—the one with which he has taken all his shadow pictures. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 The most impressive fact of all is that every phenomenon we obtain coheres with those obtained by Maxwell, Crookes, and Flammarion. The Shadow World Chemistry," and in the English edition of "Wagner's Handbook of Chemical Technology," edited by Mr. Crookes, the process as described by Dr. Ehrmann in the "Ann. Scientific American Supplement, No. 455, September 20, 1884 In the interior of a Crookes tube he collected a pencil of cathode rays in a metal cylinder. The New Physics and Its Evolution Here still another, which by my fingers' touch casts a shadow—the Crookes shadow, of the stem inside of it. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency Thus far only small Crookes tubes have been used, and much is to be expected when larger ones become available; but there is great difficulty in the manufacture of them. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 It is absurd to say that no one but these physicists has ever properly studied spiritualistic phenomena; spiritists themselves have put the screws on quite as effectively as ever Crookes or Richet has done. The Shadow World And they have been directed not by imaginative artists like Mr. Yeats or even Mr. Moore, but by solid scientific students like Sir William Crookes and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The New Jerusalem The phenomena produced both inside and outside a Crookes tube are, however, generally complex. The New Physics and Its Evolution You can't call Sir Charles Crookes, the inventor of Crookes Tubes,—a waster? The Return of Peter Grimm Finally, in a tube exhausted as highly as possible, he obtained a faint fluorescent glow, like that produced in a Crookes tube. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 These flames interest me very much, for I have seen them on several occasions, but could not believe in them, even though Crookes spoke of handling them. The Shadow World The Ruhmkorff coil in the background; the Crookes tube in front of it; under the hand is the photographic plate in its plate-holder. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 6, May, 1896 The speed never depends on the nature of the gas contained in the Crookes tube, but varies with the value of the fall of potential at the cathode. The New Physics and Its Evolution Dr. W. Crookes has made many beautiful experiments on the behaviour of the molecules of attenuated matter in vacua. Creation and Its Records He thinks that it would be possible to make Crookes tubes two feet in diameter instead of a few inches, as at present. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 You remember Crookes put his finger on the print of a newspaper behind his back, and the 'spirit' spoke the word that was under his finger-tip. The Shadow World The Crookes tube, actuated from a storage battery or other source of electricity through a Ruhmkorff coil, is placed on one side of the body. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 6, May, 1896 Sir W. Crookes has invented a curious little apparatus, the spinthariscope, which enables us to examine the phosphorescence of the blende excited by these rays. The New Physics and Its Evolution He published a reply to Dr. Carpenter’s criticism, and the common-sense of ordinary readers, at least, sees no flaw in Mr. Crookes’s method and none in his argument. Cock Lane and Common-Sense In taking this photograph the experiment was tried of using a diaphragm interposed between the Crookes tube and the plate; and the superior clearness obtained is thought to result from this. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 5, April, 1896 Sir W. Crookes being, professionally, celebrated for the accuracy of his observations, these circumstances are difficult to explain, and these are but a few cases among multitudes. The Making of Religion When the hand is held before a Crookes tube, and is looked at through the cylinder, we can see the bones of the hand or foot almost as clearly as is shown in Figure 2. McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 6, May, 1896 Crookes, William, an eminent chemist and physicist, born in London; distinguished for researches in both capacities; discovered the metal thallium, and invented the radiometer; b. The Nuttall Encyclopædia Being a Concise and Comprehensive Dictionary of General Knowledge When Mr. Crookes made certain experiments on Home’s power of causing a balance to move without contact he succeeded; in the presence of some Russian savants a similar experiment failed. Cock Lane and Common-Sense The interest of it was enhanced by the presence of the great apostle of Spiritualism - Sir William Crookes. Tracks of a Rolling Stone Sir W. Crookes attests having seen Home float in air on several occasions. The Making of Religion Professor Crookes, the most rising chemist in Europe, Dr. Russel Wallace the great naturalist, Varley the electrician, Flammarion the French astronomer, and many others, risked their scientific reputations in their brave assertions of the truth. The Vital Message I do not know whether Home also favoured Professor Crookes with any exhibition of this kind, but the latter certainly expressed an opinion that some of Home's feats were genuine. My Days of Adventure The Fall of France, 1870-71 This, of course, suggests Home’s experiments in handling live coals, as Mr. Crookes and Lord Crawford describe them. Cock Lane and Common-Sense The company present were Dr. Bird's intimate friend Sir William Crookes - future President of the Royal Society - Miss Bird, Dr. Bird's daughter, and her husband - Mr. Ionides - and Mrs. -, the mother of the young artist. Tracks of a Rolling Stone Sir W. Crookes's evidence follows: 'At Mr. Home's request, whilst he was entranced, I went with him to the fireplace in the back drawing-room. The Making of Religion Let us for a moment examine the facts in this Crookes' episode. The Vital Message Some sixteen or more years ago, Professor Crookes, F.R.S., discovered and, after a series of experiments, patented the use of an amalgam of the metal sodium for this purpose. Scientific American Supplement, No. 433, April 19, 1884 Thus, among the sounds usually called ‘rappings,’ Mr. Crookes mentions, as matter within his own experience, ‘a cracking like that heard when a frictional machine is at work’. Cock Lane and Common-Sense We cannot note the researches of Edison, Lockyer, or Tyndall, nor of Crookes, who has seemingly reached the molecules whence the universe is composed. Scientific American Supplement, No. 288, July 9, 1881 You will recall that as long ago as the days of Crookes it was known that a kathode in an exhausted tube would project particles, or atoms, of its substance away in straight lines. The Moon Metal First of all, let us take Crookes' classic experiments with Katie King, a result which for a long time stood alone and isolated but now can be approached by intermittent but definite stages. The Vital Message There may, further, be cases where the effects of luminous radiative repulsion become apparent, and also Crookes’ vacuum-effects described as “radiant matter.” History of Astronomy If we exist in a period of learned and scientific scepticism, and are ourselves trained observers, we may still watch the beliefs of Mr. Wallace and the experiments witnessed by Mr. Crookes and Dr. Huggins. Cock Lane and Common-Sense In an analogous manner the author explains the phenomena of phosphorescence which Crookes' elicits by the action of his radiant matter. Scientific American Supplement, No. 288, July 9, 1881 Something of the unquestionable possibilities are shown in the following quotation from Nature, as expressed in a lecture by Prof. Crookes upon the implied results of Tesla's experiments. Steam, Steel and Electricity So far, Geley's experiments throw a strong explanatory light upon those of Crookes. The Vital Message I went with this college acquaintance to visit the old Lord Montfort, at his villa near London, and thence to the country-house of the Vipont Crookes. What Will He Do with It? — Complete I went with this college acquaintance to visit the old Lord Montfort, at his villa near London, and thence to the country- house of the Vipont Crookes. What Will He Do with It? — Volume 06 In like manner the thermic and the mechanical effects are most simply explained, according to the expression selected by Crookes himself, as the results of a "continued molecular bombardment." Scientific American Supplement, No. 288, July 9, 1881 It was rendered possible by the prior work of Geissler and Crookes on the luminous phenomena produced by the passage of electric discharges through high vacua in glass tubes. Beacon Lights of History, Volume 14 The New Era; A Supplementary Volume, by Recent Writers, as Set Forth in the Preface and Table of Contents Crookes' letters upon the subject are still extant. The Vital Message Crookes found electricity appearing in his tubes in the form of discrete particles, with properties hitherto known only as appertaining to mass. Man or Matter His visit was merely for the purpose of gathering some apparatus, which included a Crookes tube, carefully packed, a rheostat, and some other paraphernalia which we divided. The Treasure-Train The author discusses the question whether, according to the experiments of Crookes, the assumption of an especial fourth state of aggregation is necessary, or whether the facts may be satisfactorily explained without such hypothesis? Scientific American Supplement, No. 288, July 9, 1881 Mr Crookes regards them as a stream of airy particles electrified by contact with the cathode or negative discharging point, and repelled from it in straight lines. The Story of Electricity But Crookes had, at last, begun to suspect the true condition of affairs, and now that the market was hourly growing tighter and more congested, his suspicion was confirmed. The Pit Consider also the decisive part played by the vacuum in Crookes's researches, through which the path to the sub-physical realm of nature was laid open. Man or Matter And sceptical physicists like Sir William Crookes demonstrate by laboratory experiments that "mediums" like Douglas Home can make the pointer of a spring-balance go round without touching the weight suspended from it. Bernard Shaw's Preface to Androcles and the Lion The author considers it impossible to form a clear understanding of the phenomena in accordance with the theory of Crookes, or to find in the facts any evidence of the existence of radiant matter. Scientific American Supplement, No. 288, July 9, 1881 Other papers by Crookes are in the "Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research." More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 There's not room for Crookes and me in this game. The Pit But the decisive step in this sphere of research was taken by the English physicist, William Crookes. Man or Matter Some, like Professor Crookes, have accepted them with acclaim, hailing Lockyer as "the Darwin of the inorganic world," while others have sought a different explanation of the facts he brings forward. A History of Science — Volume 4 A condition may also appear, as is shown by Crookes' experiment, with the metallic plate intercalated as negative pole in the middle of. a Geissler tube, with the positive poles at the ends. Scientific American Supplement, No. 288, July 9, 1881 Such an attenuated gas as this is considered by Professor Crookes as constituting a fourth state of matter, which he terms ultra-gaseous. A History of Science — Volume 3 By the end of the Friday session, Crookes and his clique had sold five million bushels, "going short," promising to deliver wheat that they did not own, but expected to buy at low prices. The Pit Science, in the form in which Crookes himself conceived it, took for granted that the relationship of human consciousness to the world was that of external onlooking. Man or Matter But I will observe here that an Immortality liable at any moment to betray itself fatuously by the forcible incantations of Mr. Stead or Professor Crookes is scarcely worth having. Notes on Life and Letters Crookes and Wallace ranged up on the opposing side, while Sir Oliver Lodge attempted to formulate a compromise that would jibe with his particular cosmic theories. Martin Eden The calculation is based on experiments made with the radiometer of Professor Crookes, an instrument which in itself is held to demonstrate the truth of the kinetic theory of gases. A History of Science — Volume 3 Sure enough, on that very Saturday Crookes was selling more freely than ever, confident of breaking the Bull ere the closing gong should ring. The Pit The realm thrown open to science by Crookes's observations, which human knowledge now entered as if taking it by storm, was that of the radioactive processes of the mineral stratum of the earth. Man or Matter Sir William Crookes had in 1874 applied himself to the task of creating something more nearly like a vacuum than the old air-pumps afforded. The Story of Evolution I've not inflated it up one single eighth yet; Crookes thinks I have. The Pit The composition of the glass seemed to be changed by a long-continued pelting of these particles, the phosphorescence after a time losing its initial brilliancy, caused by the glass becoming "tired," as Professor Crookes said. A History of Science — Volume 3 Perhaps, after all, Crookes was not so omnipotent. The Pit Crookes had hoped that the scientists of his day would be positively interested in his researches. Man or Matter The Crookes tube became one of the toys of science—and the lamp of other investigators. The Story of Evolution Promptly at half-past nine o'clock on Tuesday morning Crookes began to sell May wheat short, and instantly, to the surprise of every Pit trader on the floor, the price broke with his very first attack. The Pit Crookes swung his chair around and faced his desk. The Pit He was in the Crookes' ring, and we never knew it—I've killed him, Sam. The Pit The same is true of the phenomena bound up with radioactivity, which were discovered in direct consequence of Crookes's work. Man or Matter In 1895 Rontgen drew closer attention to the Crookes tube by discovering the rays which he called X-rays, but which now bear his name. The Story of Evolution A "Bull" clique had evidently been formed, presumably of New York capitalists, who were ousting the Crookes crowd and were rapidly coming into control of the market. The Pit Crookes nodded as his ally came up, and one finger raised, pointed to a chair. The Pit Crookes turned to his desk and signed a few letters, the scrape of his pen the only noise to break the silence of the room. The Pit Just as Crookes had once sought to investigate spiritism scientifically, so in his subsequent scientific inquiries he was always something of a spiritist. Man or Matter There was a step at the door, and as Crookes called to come in, the office messenger entered and put a slip of paper into his hands. The Pit Crookes has got to have that element in the clique before we can approach Stires & Co. The Pit I don't know; and I guess I'm like Crookes, I don't care—now that I'm out of the game. The Pit Crookes turned away again, and glanced indifferently over his letters. The Pit Accordingly, everything combined to suggest to Crookes that here, if anywhere, he was at the boundary between the physical and the superphysical worlds. Man or Matter He knew that he overtopped them all—Gretry, the Crookes gang, the arrogant, sneering Bears, all the men of the world of the Board of Trade. The Pit Jadwin had, as Gretry put it, "timed Crookes to a split second," foreseeing the exact moment when he would make his supreme effort. The Pit Crookes dared not buy, dared not purchase the wheat to make good his promises of delivery, for fear of putting up the price on himself higher still. The Pit I was one of the merry paretics who believed that Crookes was the Great Lum-tum. The Pit No one can read these words of Crookes without hearing again, as an undertone, the question which had forced itself on him at the bedside of his dead brother, long before. Man or Matter It was him, nervy little cuss, that found out about Crookes. The Pit A few days after this Crookes sat in his office in the building in La Salle Street that bore his name. The Pit "I have not told him, Mr. Crookes," he said. The Pit Crookes, without answering, drew his desk telephone to him. The Pit The aversion to spiritism which Crookes met with in contemporary science was, from the standpoint of such a science, largely justified. Man or Matter Left alone, Crookes took a turn the length of the room. The Pit "Ah," commented Crookes, "they did get it there at last." The Pit Yes," assented Jadwin, absently, running through a sheaf of telegrams, "that's all we can do—until we see what kind of a game Crookes means to play. The Pit "I can tell you who's got it, if you care to know," answered Crookes. The Pit The same language is spoken by the forms in which the luminous phenomena appear at the two poles of a Crookes tube. Man or Matter The "Crookes affair"—as among themselves the group of men who centred about Jadwin spoke of it—was one of the sharpest fights known on the Board of Trade for many a long day. The Pit "I want to talk with you, Mr. Crookes," began Cressler, hurriedly. The Pit At the end of the third week of the month Freye reported to Crookes that Cressler was "in," and promptly negotiations were opened between the clique and the great banking house of the Stires. The Pit Crookes did not seem to consider that the remark called for any useless words. The Pit Still, the land that lies on the other side of this frontier is not the one Crookes had been looking for throughout his life. Man or Matter "Crookes was saying to-day—" he would observe when next he met an acquaintance. The Pit The Crookes gang, though," observed Landry, "seem pretty confident the market will break. The Pit For C. H. Crookes was conceded to be the "biggest man" in La Salle Street. The Pit Crookes is out of the market, too, I understand—and means to keep out, he says, till the Big Bull gets tired. The Pit In his own way Crookes focused, to begin with, his attention entirely on the light-like character of electric effects in a vacuum. Man or Matter But as Cressler was about to continue Crookes put his chin in the air. The Pit Crookes, whom Cressler intuitively singled out as the leader, did not so much as open his mouth till Sweeny had talked himself breathless, and all the preliminaries were out of the way. The Pit D'ye think Crookes, now, couldn't make Bear sentiment with the public, with just the lift o' one forefinger? The Pit Well," said the little voice of the man-within-the-man, who in the person of Calvin Hardy Crookes sat listening to the ticker in his office, "well, let it roar. The Pit It was Crookes's fate to open the road which has brought man to nature's lower border and even across it, although he himself was in search of her upper border. Man or Matter Why is Crookes so keen on having him in? The Pit And as soon as Cressler had accepted the invitation, Crookes, with a succinct nod, turned upon his heel and walked away. The Pit Crookes & Co. are like Rothschild—earthquakes couldn't budge 'em. The Pit Crookes looked at it, and pushed it across his desk towards Cressler. The Pit "Oh, yes, some of Crookes' followers—yes, quite a lot of them." The Pit Crookes, though, was saying to me—Cal Crookes, you know—he was saying he didn't care who he was. The Pit Now I'm going into this hard; and I want to have my own lines out—to be independent of the trade papers that Crookes could buy up any time he wants to. The Pit "Yes," continued Crookes, unfolding a brand-new pocket handkerchief as he spoke. The Pit |
