Heyl said, THE EVENING tubes would drag with them some of the ether. The results showed that this was true and from this it could be deduced absolutely that the whole mass of the particle was electrical in its nature. What Becomes of Energy? The two theories resolve to thif: Matter is energy and energy is mat- ter. Matter is continually dissolving as energy. What is energy doing? Where does it reform into matter? The whole is still in the realm of metaphysics. It may be centurles, Dr. Heyl said, before scientists will be able to devise means of absolute proof, aside from the fact that the theories work out correctly in mathe- matics and explain phenomena that cannot be explained in any otner way. Together the theorles, which Dr. Heyl characterized as the most mo- mentous advances in physics in re- cent times, seem to convey the im- pression that the world, the solar s [universe and all men and women are just component bits of a great river of electrical energy roaring through space. The question arises then, whether thought itself and the mass of accumulated knowledge behind it may not be forms of enersy com- posed of electrical particles with cer- | a n definite weight, if it could be de- termined.
