THE UNIVERSE
NOTED SCIENTIST’S FINDING. [United Press Association. —By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.] NEW YORK, December 30. Doctor Robert Millakin, the eminent physicist, addressing an open session of the American Association for the Advancement of Science at Cleveland, presented arguments, based on his recent researches into the cosmic ray, to prove his contention that the universe like a clock, is constantly being wound up by the “Creator,” “who,” he says, “is constantly on the job.” jjoctor Millakin, discussing “atomic disintegration and atomic .synthesis, assured the gathering that scientific belief in evolutionary progress did not imply disbelief in religion, and he offered his “increasing universal energy” theory as an argument in refutation of the British scientists, Doctors Jeans and Eddington, who contend that the energy of the universe is disappearing, due to the workings of a “Second Law on Thermo-dy-namics.”
