Park' of Chicago, a graduate of the University of Victoria College, Toron- to, Ont., and of Harvard University, believes that he has discovered the true origin of heat, and intends to lay his discovery before the Assooci- ation for the Advancement of Science in London next June. The old theory that heat is a mode of motion is de- clared to be fallacious by Dr. Park. He asserts that heat is imponderable ether accumulated in excess. This imponderable matter, accord: ing to Dr. Park, is completely neutral and is never manifested as heat in its elementary condition, But when it ac cumulates in excess and its equilib rium is disturbed, it becomes heat. He says that when the equilibrinm of the ifaponderable ether is disturbed, there must be motion, but in this applica- tion, motion is simply the agent and not the principhl. Tt is merely the battery, not the electrical power. Dr. Park gays he was immediately acquainted with Lord Kelvin, and that the iatter some time before his death said he believed Dr, Park was working on the right theory: He suys that Prof. Tyndall also endorsed his theory of the origin of heat on which he has been working for years, NOT IN RIGHT MIND. Dillon Alias Smith Not Likely to Be Tried. Montreal, April 11.--The physicians and nurses at the General Hospital area now of the opinion that John Dillon, alias James Smith, the mur. derer of Constable Shes, is not in his right mind, and they do not be ig that he will ever be brought to trial. Dillon will undergo an opera- tion to-day, when the bullets will be removed from his side and back. The surgeons consider he is strong enough now to undergo the ordeal, as he has been resting quietly for the lagt couple of days. It was stated at the hospital, last night, by a physician, that Dillon was of unsound mind. He is not violent, however, and has little to say to the nurses and attendants. WILL ARREST BE MADE ?- There is a Rumor to This Effect Going About Ottawa, Ont., April 11.--While it is said that some arrests may be made in corinectign with the scandals in the marine department, there is no. surety in the rumors. The fact that the min- ister asked for the investigation, amd that Judge Cassels is to conduct it, is taken as a serious sigh, but nothing will be done until the judge's work is concluded. It is said there was con- spiracy to defraud on the part of the employees, but' no names are men- tioned or particulars known. . Other statements are premature. Appointed Comptroller.
