Uat if one should take a molecule and blow it up till it waa about as big aa Ue earth, then each of tbe atoms of which Ue molecule waa composed would appear to be about aa large aa a piece of chalk, or some such matter." No, no," said Ue amateur professor, what waa aald waa Uat. In the ease you mention, tbe atoms would each appear to be of Ue size of an ordinary billiard ball. And that may. perhaps, give you some idea Uat you don't want to think mnch about the number of atoms in the universe and the vast number of spirits Uat have pulled them out.

Energy la endlessly at work In one way or another, and no minimum of it Is ever lost.

All is motion. Heat, light, electricity, magnetism all are but modes of motion, going on probably in those portions of the ether which have not been reduced to the form of vortex rings; that la to aay. In those portions of It whioh have not become material atoms, and throua-h whloh those portions that have become atoms are constantly pasalng or are In simple vibration. -no now nave ether, tne discrete parts of ether that are eailed stoma, and tbe doctrine of tbe conservation of energy to work with as mate rials to ahow that the universe of matter la necessarily Indestructible, and thereby to controvert the conclusions drawn by the authors of 'The Unseen who contend, in substance, that the time will come when the world shall be no mora because matter shall cease to exist." "But," aald "what is the nseof threshing old itraw In thla way From tbe time of Eple-tetu and Luorettu down to the present has not every one asserted the Indestructibility of atoms Hardly said the amateur profesaor. Ideal-Ism haa held lu own tolerably well in the world, and Plato Is still very much alive.

No one would ever dream of calling Pro! Huxley a Platonlst, but It la not yet four veara since he said: I repudiate aa philosophical error tbe doctrine of materialism as I under tend Perhaps, bow-ever, this is aot precisely to tbe point. Of course, tho doctrine of the indestructibility of atoms and of tbe universe of matter haa always been held, but It has never yet been demonstrated as I now Intend to demonstrate It" Oh, yon do, do you said Tha universe Is a pretty large subject, old man. for yon to tackle 1" Oh, no," waa tbe reply.

If tho whole nnt verse from the furthest sun to this room should suddenly be condensed to tbe site of a silk hat, and all thing made email la proportion to each other, we ahould aever know the difference.

Your modern ehemlst eaa always toll you where the supposed lost particle may be found, but be doea not show why, of necessity, tbe universe can never go ant of existence, and that la what I ahall now proceed to do as soon aa I have loaded my pipe again." Having loaded up and blown a number of most beautiful vortex rings, the amateur professor proceeded as follows: I have shown that the universe of matter ia aaphere bounded by the adamantine wall of Nothingness, spelled with the biggest kind of aa N. how, what must take place when, striking -Pb aay part of the con flnee of this sphere, any motion In the ether trT to get bjyond Itto go on Into tbe so-called Infinite.

Light eoald aot go through pure apaoe, for instance, any more than any sound could come from the slrlkln of a gong under the bell of aa air pump from whleh absolutely ail tbe air had been exhausted.

The result of auch an Impingement of tha ether upon that adamantine wall must be that It would almply be deflected from Ita course and turned back again Into the sphere.

The Republican machine matfagera In thla city are in a novel position Just now. They are trying to determine what to do with themselves. There was never a time In tbe political history of New-York when the Republican machine waa as decrepit aa It la now. The fact la that there Is nothing now but the mere skeleton of a ma chine; the form is there, but the substance Is not It may not be generally known that the lead-era of tbe Republicans reallia thla condition themselves, and that they have already taken tbe Initial steps toward a remedy. The election waa no sooner over than the truth dawned upon the most conservative of the members of tbe Executive Committee.

Tbe organisation wa In a plight and no mistake. So forcibly did this state of things appeal to them that on the Sunday following tbe election a meeting of thia Executive Committee, secretly called and privately held, took place In the rooms of the clubhouse oa East Fourth street, of which Jacob af. Patterson Is the presiding genius. This meeting was a discursive affair. It was evident that something must be done, but what to do and how to do it waa the problem.

Those who took part in the discussion deplored the lack of organization and discussed means to mend thia matter. It waa found that the Republican machine waa particularly lame In the matter of election district Captains; that no attention was paid to election district organization until a few wests before each election; that there was too much Individual interest manifested and too little general Interest In the welfare of the party, and that there waa a very large and varied assortment of difficulties to be encountered and overoome before the Republican machine waa properly lubrloated. To out of tbe members of the Executive Committee It waa evident from the outset that muoh of tbe trouble lay right within tbe ExeouUve Committee Itself. This fact make the problem of reorganisation a most difficult one. A certain member of the Executive Committee says that something most be done right away, and that do more time mutt be waated.

He faara, indeed, that If there is much more do-lay there won't be enough of the Republican machine left to organize. There is Is satisfaction all over town, and this 1 especially apparent in dlstiiots where there Is a cbanoe for good Republican organization. In some of the lower dlstrloU the organizations almply amount to social eluba, of which the district leader la the boss. Tbe meeting at Mr. Patterson's clubhouse amounted to nothing beyond establishing the fact that the Exec tire Committee realised Ita necessities, but nothing wa done at It to determine bow to confront tbe necessity.

It was suggested that each district leader be compelled to furnish tbe central body with a list of lu election district leaders, so that the Executive Committee eould gain some Idea of what waa going on throughout tha city, and eould see to It that these election district Captains ware kept interested In their work all the year round Instead of only for a few weeks prior to the election. Other schemes were talked over, but the difficulty, as one of the leaders haa slnoe mil it. waa tnat soma of thna. gesting remedlee were the cause of the necessity for such suga-eetioBa. He aald that the fact appear to be, and none of those familiar with the Inalde workings of tho Republleaa machine la thla elty will deny It.

that there 1 too much dry rot in tha eommlttaa and too muoh timber that la worn out. Ia ether words, there are too many back-number politl-elana wbose ambition for their party locallr died out long ago. He confessed that there waaao hope of building up the organisation in thla elty with tbe present Executive Committee as the basis of tbe structure. The trouble Is that the preeeat committee cannot get the money. In the last campaign the Executive Committee was practically without funds.

Tha money that usually come to the committee In campaign times from Union League aonreee waa withheld this year. Tbe only money that the committee got came from tha Republleaa State Committee. Thia was a small amount, and the complaint haa slnoe been made that tha State Committee could have put tbe money to muoh better use la other sections of the State. Lack of confidence la the committee as whole, the fact that some of lu members are anything but progressive politicians, aad that tbey do little if anything to keep np the Interest la tha orcaal-satlOB are some of the eompialau that are aow heard agalast the Republican executive body. Some of the member are In favor of adopting a policy that wUl put the organization In lighting eoBdltlon.

They want thing fixed ao that each Assembly dlatrlct leader shall be held to a trlet accountability for hU district, and that each election district Captain shall be held responsible for his lection district, not only lust before election, but ail the year round, Si complaint la mada that the dlatrlet organization never hold meet-toO that amount to aaything.
