"In the Shadow of the Cross," the unfinished and unexplained miracle picture on exhibition at the Parish house of the Church of the Redeem er, is attracting a great number of people and exciting much admiration, womWment and speculation. It certainly is marvelous in its ef fect and Is well worth the time and money It takes many times over. The painting is one of the Christ man, full length, anil seen in the light has nothing unusual about it to account for the strange phenomena connected with it. Immediately upon the shutting out of the light, a strange, weird light Is seen emanat ing from the background of the pic ture, the figure of the Savior remain ing dark in the center and heighten ing J" contract the pale luminosity. Behind the shoulders of the Christ and breaking the lighted area Is the shadow of a cross, from which the painting derives its name. The exhibitors of this picture do not claim any spiritual significance attaching to the peculiar light, but designate it as an accident of art, which has defied all attempts at du plication. Undoubtedly the light is given off from some chemical in the pigments of the paint. All tests, it is claimed, have proven that it Is not pitch blende, radium or any of the many phosphorescent substances.. Whatever its cause, to ee It is to marvel.' set of Keen-Kutter tools.
