The Color of the Sun.
From knowledge.

from hlOWI6uSe-
Most people. if they were asked to
state the color of the sun, would say
that it was orange. and they would as
confidently assert that the color of the
atmosphere is blue. They would be
wrong, for recent researches and in
yestigatioRs point to the conclusion
that the real color of the sun is blue
while that of the atmosphere surround
ing the earth is orange. Commonly
the earth's atmosphere appears to be
transparent and translucent, so that
it is hard to realize the fact that it has
as much effset on the light and heat
couiu@ f~~~' tho sun as II it were a
roof OF thick glass. But the atmos-
phere is very far from being as color
less as it seems to be. and the best way
of discovering Its true tint is. not to
gaze immediately overhead but to look
away toward the horizon. BY so doing
the atmosphere win be seen, as it
were. in bulk; for overhead there Is
only a emaU ACCUMULATION ~ ~ COM
rared with the many miles of thickness
through whi'h the vision travels when

Chinese Wanted In the Colonies

From the Chicago Record-Herald-
The anomalies of our colonial sys-
tenn receive an illustration in two
dispatches which were printed vester-
day. One cf these reported tina. M
der a new law Chinese were pouring
into Manila and settling in the prot
inces. 5000 having arrived within two
weeks. The ether contained the news
that in his annual report H. E. Coop
or. Acting Governor of Hawaii. had re-
questsd authority TO permit the inn
migration OF limited number OF Chi
pesa laborers, On condition that t
would engage IN agricultural pursuits
only during their residence in the
territory and return to their own
country after they had stopped work
in the fields.
Probably the Chinese are needed as
mitch or more in Hawaii than they
are in the Philippines. The sugar
plantations have difficulty In securing
an abundance of good hands. and no
agricultural industry is served as well
by Japanese or natives as il would
by Chinese. who are the most indus
trious and most reliable worker in
the Orient. But Hawaii is a territory
which has been enveloped within the
laws and Constitution of the United
States. and it is difficult TO see how
Mr.. Cooper's suggestion could be fol-
lowed out
Congress has no power to exclude
any state or territory from the opera
tons of a general law.

THE METRIC SYSTEM.

For many years EFFORTS have been
made by scientists and students TO
have the United States adopt the met
ric system of weights and measures.
Every country of Prominence in the

system to the exclusion of all others.
