Miners Bills Approved.

Before leaving Philadelphia Messrs.
Mitchell, Gompers, Attorney Darrow
and representatives of the mine workers
union had conference in regard to a
number of measures for the betterment
of miners and other laborers, that have
been introduced into the Pennsylvania
legislature. There are five of these bills,
and committee representing the or
ganization will take steps to bring to
bear the influence OF trades unions in
securing their passage. The bills con
sidered at the conference were as fol-
lows:
That prohibiting minors under eigh-
teen years of age working in factories
at night introduced by Senator Quail, of
Schuylkill county.
The second bill affects breaker boys,
door.tenders, driver boys in and about
the anthracite mines and provides that
no minor under fourteen years may be
employed about the outside workings,
and none under sixteen years about the
inside workings of an anthracite mine,
third bill considered and approved
was the employers liability law, which
makes the employer share in the respon-
sibiity for accidents to mine workers,
due to careessness or stupidity on the
part of fellow employees At present in
iured men have no redress in law.
Senator Thomas bill creating de-
partment OF mines was approved after
prolonged discussion. There will be
several amendments offered to this
measure.
The Garner bill, providing for an
eight-hour workday for miners, was ap-
proved.

A HEROIC TRIO.
Travis, Crockett and Bowie and q
Neglected American Epic.

Neglected American Epic.
The late Frank Norris in an article
In Worlds Work says that the Ameri-
can epic, which on the shelves of pos
terity should have stood shoulder to
shoulder with the "Hemskingla" and
the Tales OF the Nibelungen" and the
Song of Roland" will never be writ
ten because the Hector of an ignored
"Iliad' has been forgotten. "One of the
requirements of an epic-a true epic-is
that its action must devolve upon some
great national event. There was no
lack of such in those fierce years after
forty-nine. Just that long and terrible
journey from the Mississippi to the
ocean is an epic in itself. Yet no seri-
Gus attempt has ever been made by an
American author to render into prose
or verse this event in our history as
national in scope, in origin and in
results as the Revolution itself. The
prairie schooner Is as large a figure in
the legends as the black ship that bore
Ulysses homeward from Troy. The
sea meant as much to the Argonauts of
the fifties as it did to the ten thousand.
"And the Alamo! There is trumpet
call in the word, and only the look of
it on the printed page is flash Of fire,
but the very histories slight the deed,
and to many an American born under
the same flag that the Mexican rifles
shot to ribbons on that splendid day
the word is meaningless. Yet Their
mopyla was less glorious, and in COM
parison with that siege the investment
of Troy was mere wanton riot. At the
very least the Texans in that battered
adobe church fought for the honor of
their flag and the greater glory of their
country, not for loot or the possession
of the person of an adulteress. Young
men are taught to consider the "lliad,"
with its butcheries, It's gloritication of
inordinate selfishness and vanity, as
classic Achilles-murderer, egotist, ruff
fan and liar-is a hero. But the name
of Bowie, the name of the man who
gave his life to his flag at the Ala
mo, is perpetuated only in the deS-
ignation OF knife. Crockett is the
hero only of funny story about sa-
gacious coon, while Travis, the boy
commander who did what Gordon with
an empire back of him failed to do, is
quietly and definitely ignored. He died
in defense of an ideal, an epic hero, II
legendary figure, formidable, sad. He
died facing down injustice, dishonesty
and crime; died in his boots and the
same world that has gloritied Achilles
and frgotten Travis finds none so poor
to do him reverence"

reason for looking down upon Jones.
