The Plains of Yuha.
Some of the Curiosities of the Colorado Desert.
Graves Each of Which Tells a Story of a Tragedy of
Heart, Thirst and Death—Q0dd Stones and Shells
that Strew the Barren Region.
There is a section of the Colorado
desert where nature has left some re-
markable records. She has visited the
pegion alternately with fire and water
and has left it with neither. It is the
most desolate, wild, barren, forbidding
part of the desert, says the Los Ange-
les Times, and it is shunned alike by
man and beast. That there is good
and sufficient reason for avoiding this
locality is attested by numbers of
graves, nameless for the most part,
found in the terrible region.
These graves are simple affairs,
merely mounds of earth with a border
of stones about each and a pile of
rocks two or three feet high at the
head. Each tells the story of a
tragedy of heat, thirst and death.
Those items are about all that is ever
known of the stories of those who
perish. Their mummified bodies or
bleached bones are found long after
the struggle is over, and the finder, re-
gpecting the memory of the unknown,
scoops a hole in the earth, lays the
ghastly relic within and piles up the
only monument available in that wild
region.

The piain now lies nearly a hundred
feet below the level of the sea, and the
rocks of the plain and the bases of the
mountains are washed and eroded in a
wonderful manner. Mingling with the
burnt stones and volcanic debris are
rocks worn by the waves and shaped
into hundreds of fantastic forms. There
are many acres of these stone curiosi-
ties, and certain sections of the field
seem devoted to certain shapes and
figures.
For instance, one passes through a
region which he at once names the cab-
bage patch, for it presents the appear-
ance of a field of those vegetables
which have turned to stone. The waves
have worn the rocks into round bowl-
ders about the size of the vegetable
which they so much resemble and have
cut into the globes, laminating them in |
perfect imitation of the leafy layers of
the garden vegetable.
Another locality is devoted almost ex-
clusively to dinner plates. Thousands
of rounded, thin disks are scattered |
over the plain or are piled scores deep |
in singular piles, each piece shaped ex- | 8reen, blue or red instead of what it
actly like the crockery which adorns
our tables and quite as thin and sym-
metrical.
Another section of this truly wonder-
ful region is given almost wholly to |
dumbbells.
pieces weighing one or two pounds up
to those seemingly calculated for exer-
cising the muscles of a giant and
weighing thirty or forty pounds each.
In almost every instance these natural
dumbbells are well balanced, the balls
at either end of the connecting piece
being of the same size and weight.
There is in this plain an arsenal also.
While guns and swords and bayonets
and powder were not there to be found,
there are thousands of cannon balls
varying in size from two and three inch
balls to those fit for the big thirteen
inch guns of modern warfare. And all
These vary in size from |
| of our sun consists of six colors, and
are of stone, all formed in nature's
workshop.
There are other objects innumerable.
There are stone roses, stone lilies, stone
tulips, stone leaves, stone birds, stone
animals, stone quoits, stone ornaments
in varied and unique designs, stone
canes—in fact, almost everything con-
ceivable in nature or art imitated in
stone on the plain of Yuha.
In one portion of Yuha rise two hills
or small mountains. One might mis-
take them in the distance for ancient
craters, but when he approaches the
eminences he discovers them to be
monuments to an ancient life—the rec-
ords of species now extinct. They are
shell mountains, great beds of prehis-
toric bivalves which were left stranded
when that ancient sea swept back from
the region and left a dry and desolate
land.
One of these mountains, the large

shells, much larger, but less elongated,
than the shells of the modern oyster, |
which in some respects they so much
resemble as to lead to the suspicion
that they are the remains of the ances- |
tors of our much prized bivalve.
The lesser hill is composed of tiny
shells of a prehistoric type of brachio-
poda. Like the larger shells, they are
found except on the surface in an un-
disturbed state, both valves of nearly
every shell being found in position.
Although the mollusk dwellers of these
shells vanished several centuries ago,
so perfect are the shells one almost ex-
pects when he opens the valve of the
shell to find the living creature within.
COLOR OF THE SUN.
What Would Happen if It Were Othe
er Than What It Is.
A German astronomer has published
some interesting observations on the
theoretical effects of a change in the
color of the sun. It is amazing to con-
sider the possibilities if our sun were
is. If it were blue, there would be
only two colors in the world—blue and
black. If it were red, then everything
would be red or black. If it were yel-
low, everything would be yellow or
black. Every one knows that the light
the reason things are different hues is
that 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, a 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
it. 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,
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 a cloudy
blue. If the sun were green, we would
have a 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,
purples, orange, pinks or any of those
cheery hues that make the world look
so bright.—New York Herald.

cessible fastnesses of the everglades.”
