ENERGY AND HEAT.
Some Interesting Problems of The
Universe.

III we transform electrical energy
10 mechanical energy and backward,
we do not get back the total amount
OF energy. Some OF it is converted
into heat, says Current Literature.
OF this heat energy at least a part
can never be transformed into any
other form Of energy; that Is, ii has
become unavailable. We are dealing
with the second law of thermodynam-
les. 1t may be expressed In this form:
In any cyclic process the sum total of
unavailable heat energy increases. Or,
to follow still the article of DIR. Charles
Z. Steinmetz, chief consulting engineer
Of the General Electric Company, the
law referred to may be expressed:
without expenditure of some other
form OF energy. heat flows only from
higher or lower temperatures; that is,
from a higher heat level to a lower
heat level. In this form the law Is
easiest TO grasp; Just as water, with
out expenditure of outside energy
flows only from higher to lower level
The rcsui, Of The second law Of ther-
Modyr1m,cs IS that the temperature
crests iG tH. universe are leveled off,
the temperature valleys filled up, the
amount of unavailable heat energy
tthat below the bottom of the temper
ature valleys), is increased in other
words. the temperature of the uni
verse tends toward a uniformity, at
which all the heat energy has become
unavailable. The temperature differ
ences in the universe are thus main-
tained only through the expenditure
OF other forms OF energy. Other
energy Is thus continuously poured
into the gulf of heat energy in pro-
ducing available heat energy through
temperature differences. These again
are continuously lcveled off and the
heat energy is made unavailable by
the functioning OF the second law OF
thermOdynamic. but no return path
exists from the unavailable heat ener-
gy to other forms OF energy.

NEW STATE GAME WARDEN.
Coz. y. y. Richardson. Of BarnweI.
appointed by Governor.

Columbia, Feb. 24.-Upon the rec
ommendation of Mayor Gibbes as
president of the Audubon Society,
Governor Blease has appointed Col
Alfred Aldrich Richardson. Of
Rarnwell, as chief game warden
Section TAT, Volume 2, Of the Code,
provides that the Audubon Society
Of the State shall send in the name Of
a suitable person to the Governor to
be chief game warden and the Gov
neror must transmit this name, with
his recommendation, to the State
Senate. The Governor will send this
appointment to the Senate tomorrow
night
Governor Blease is very much op-
posed to this position and will so state
in his message to the Senate. How
ever, the law provides that he shall
transmit the name, and in view of the
fact that the Legislature has just or
dered the claim of James Henry Rice
for his salary last year as game war
den paid, which claim the Governor
fought SO vigorously, the Governor has
decided to put the matter up to the
Senate. He hopes that the Senate will
refuse to pay the Rice claim and re-
fuse to have a game warden, as the
Governor considers this a useless Of
flee.
