Professor J. .l_ 'l`lioun~'on, leel,i|riiig

at the ltoyal liistitlitiiiii, lloiidon, said that to every inliabitnnt of the solar system, wlietlier resilient on the ear-th or in Mars, the subject of radi- ant. energy was one of vital iniport- ance, for the planets \‘.‘ci‘e not living on their resoiirces. ’l‘hcy were de-

The method by which the energy was transniitted was practically wireless telcgraipliy, be- cause they had every 1'cason to bc- lieve that the radiant energy travell- ed to them from the sin. in the form of something mechanically equivalent to electrical waves. l’i'actieally the whole of the power which they used for tho purpose of the \vorld's work had conie to them from thc sun. The cllcrgy in coal was Jin-at the energy sunt to tlicui from the sun, and trainsfornied by plants into the ener- gy coi'respoiuliin.: to elieiiiieal separa- tion. The uuignitude of the energy that was scnt to them from the sun was, ln- thought, greater than many people _i'calised_ l\lc:isurcincnts had shown that \\'hc1i the sun was shining in n cleur sky it was trrinsniittcd to the earth at a power which corres- ponded to about 7000 li. p. per acre. At present that power was practical- ly wasted, or rather it was spent in making the earth a little wnriiicr than it otlieririse would lie. There had been from time to time attempts made to utilize this enormous supply of energy. lf they knew how to hur- ricss that energy they could, by low- ering the t.einperatiire of the earth by a degree or so, obtain all the pow- er necessary to run the work of the

world. In America, 'Wi'-hc§e experi- ments in this direction had been made, they were able to get energy which was less than hall the price of the cheapest power supply hitherto available. There was no doubt that in the energy of the silii they had great resources to fall back upon, when coal got dearer and water pow- er was all used up. Professor Thom- son deult with the total nnionnt of energy that came out and was trans- mitted through the ether thi‘oiigh bodies at various temperatures. The amount of energy that came out from hot bodies, he said, was very large, and tue hotter they got the more they rndintcd. The lecturer conduct-

LONDON, April 28-Among the

iiiany ui'raii|.:ciiiciits in connection with the coronation the question of uccoinniodution for the guests of the King and Queen is one engaging the attention of officers of the royal household. Several large town man- sions have been placed nt the King's disposal, one of these being Brook, House, where, owing to deep mourn- ing, Sir Ernest Unssel will, of course, not entertain at all this season.

On the occasion of King Edward's

coroiiation, Brook House accommo- dated some of the royal guests, and. us on the former occasions, the Ain- erican Ambassador and Mrs. White- law Reid will ofler the hospitality of lloreliester House. Several emuty houses within ensy reach of Bucking- ham Palace will be engaged for the few weeks of the coronntion festivi- ties.

reign Powers, among them the Crown Prince of Germany and the (li-and Duke Michael Alexandrovitcb, the representatives of the Tsar will have suites of rooms at Buckingham Palace, and Queen Alexandra may en- tertain her guests at Marlborough House, among them ber daughter the Queen of Norway.

The great State coach, with its

panels painted by Ciprinni, its won- derful gilt mountings, and a team of Hanoverian ponies to draw it through the streets, will not after all, be one of the sights of coronation day, for the King and Queen will drive to the \Ahbcy in a glass coach surmounted by a great gilt crown, the carriage Queen Victoria used on any occasion of State during the lust forty years of her reign. The oscillating motion of George llI.'s old State coach is too suggestive ol ii cross-Channel passage to be pleasant, and although all sorts of devices in tne way of un- derpinning have been resorted to, nothing cun really keep the body of the coach quite steady once it is in motion. As Queen Mary is by no means a good sailor, she still retains a lively memory ol the ordeal of her iirst passage in the great old coach when she accompanied the King to open Parlianient.

The cream colored ponies are also

a sore trial to those who have to do with them, for their teinpers are very uncertain, and if anything upsets their cquanlmity no one knows what vagziry they may not bc up to. On one occasion some years ago one of the "cream colors" lay down and nb- solutcly declined to budge, until ut last he was unharnessed and the pro- cession hnd to go on its way with seven horses instead of eight to the royal coach.

The forecaster in snrtorinl matters

is busy with the question of what will be the King's dress when he goes to Holyrood. When the lust King George paid his northern doni- inions a State visit thc question formed the subject of long and ser- ious dchate. It was settled that His Majesty was bound to make an ap- pearance iii full Highland costume, and he did so, though to lh‘umniell‘s “fat friend" and Leigh Hunt’s

-fessedly rather trying wear. ln thc kilt, liowever, the Fourth George re-

ieoived his lieges at a lcvec in the old place. lint that scenin to have been his only appearance in "the garb of old Gaul."

Here, as any rate, is a precedent.

The present King George can wear the kilt with any Scot ulive. And, if instead of a field inurshal’s uniform His Majesty elects to wear that of an admiral at a function subsequent to thc lcvcc the variation of thc pre- cedent will be only right and proper. Thiogs, no doubt, have changed somewhat since at ii Holyrood Court the King “danced with the young, tnllfued with the old and won the hearts oi all the Scots ladies." Young and old ara quite invidious |mwud;iys,.ond Kings dance only in royal quadrilles. But with hearts for trumphs the present King holds a pretty strong hand.

only what should be expected in an enterprise that has such gigantic possibilities. So far three test wclls have been drilled under the supervis- ion of Mr. F.I-I. Stover,-than whom. we know of no more efficient expert on oil well drilling. Oil was found in all three wells, hut owing to two defective Nova Scotia made cables and other unfortunate circumstances and mishaps, sufficient depth was not attained to strike a pool.

“In No. 2 well no less than three

strata of oil sands were struck-one of 8 feet! one of 75 feet and mic of 130 feet. All of these are heavily percol- ated with a very rich grade of oil. as will be seen by the following analy- sis made by Chemist R. A. Lcverin of the Department of Mines, Ottawa. who says:

Distillation after water had been

separated gave:

Light Oil... . . Illuminating Oil... .. . Residuni...

This, as will be seen, is a

grade of crude oil, but not good as no doubt will he

in Mr. Alex G. Baillie's,oHlee ln the Halifax Hotel, Halifax, N. S. Mr., Baillie who is trustee for the Oil

Company, is a consistent and ener-i gatic worker and like Mr. Stover is absolutely sanguine as to the ulti- mate success of the Lake Ainslie oil fields.

Work, we understand, has been sus-

pended on No. 3 well and No. 4 will be started just as soon as necessary materials arrive at the works. It is the intention to have everything in readiness before a blow ls struck, thus guarding against any possibility of expensive delays. The new well will be started with an 18-inch hole and cased that size for about thirty feet, followed with about 400 feet of 13-inch casing, which will niake it quite possible to drill this well 2,500 or more feet if necessary in order to strike the deposit. - “There is no question about oil in paying quantities in Lake Ainslie fields. That is pretty well demon- strated by the large quantity sndi great thickness of oil sands en-

very high

countered in the test wells, and the

venture. The company spent quite a number of barrels of this kind of oil tity of oil to so tliorouglily- pcrcolate ` ‘huge sum of money and have met seeped into No. 2 well while it was 130 feet of sand in one strata HIGH” with reverses it is true, but that lslhelng drilled,--some of which we saw and the source of that enormous dc-
