James Fifer received telegram
yesterday from Minidoka announcing
that Henry Mitchell, brother of Mrs.
Fifer, was killed Monday evening by

a we'll on his ranch near there. A
companion was let down to bring the
body to the top but he also was nearly
overcome before reaching the bottom

restored. Further particulars could

COLOR OF THE SUN.
what Would Happen A. 1t Were 9th
err Than what 1t Ii.

GERMAN astronomer has published
some interesting observations on the
theoretical effects of change In the
color OF the sun. 1t is amazing to con-
slider the possibilities If our sun were
green, blue or red instead Of what 1t
is. II 1t were blue, there would be
only two colors In the worlli--blue and
black. If 1t were red, then everything
would be red or black. If it were vel
low, everything would be yellow or
black. Every one knows that the light
of our sun consists of six colors. and
The reason things are different hues is
mat some swallow up five Of the colors
and reflect only one. Thus we have
primoses yellow because they absorb
all but the yellow, roses red because
they absorb all but the red, violets
purple because they absorb every
thing but red and blue, mixture Of
which two colors forms purple.
In the event Of the sun being red,
roses, blood, red ink and all other
things that are now red would reflect
1t. So also would snow, the lily and
all things that are now white, but
these would, of course, be red. Every
thing else would swallow up the red
light and appear quite black. Grass,
for instance, would be black as ink,
and so would the blue of the sky, but
the white clouds would be red. The
same kind Of thing would happen If
the sun were blue. Everything now
blue or white would be blue and every
thing else black. The whole sky
clouds and all, would be blue. The
grass this time would be blue, not
black, for it reflects both blue and
| yellow. Hair would be all black, the
red Of the lips would be black, and the
rest Of the face would be cloudy
blue. If the sun were green, we would
have little variety. Things that are
now yellow would still be yellow
] things that are blue would be blue
and things that are green would still
be green, but there would be no reds
puppies, orange, pinks or any Of thos'
CHEEKY hues that make the world lool
so bright.-New York Herald.

Exposure

To cold draughts of air, to keen and
cutting winds, sudden changes of tenn
perature, scanty clothing, undue ex-
posture of the throat and neck after
public speaking and singing, bring on
coughs and colds. Billiards. Hore-
hound Syrup is the best cure.
Mrs. A. Barr, Houston, Texas,
writes, Jan. 81, 1902: Zone bottle

me of very bad cough. 1t is very
