1t is fortunate for Lhe malnlainance OF

little marine knowledge Of the eastern
Allan ic Columbus waS supposed to
have acquired, after sailing over and

Cape Velde Islands. Yet, We believe
while viewing the matter from marine
standpoint, that Columbus after his long
Atlantic experience would never have
made the attempt to force his vessels
westward against the stormy and ad-
verse winds of the high latitudes, when
he well knew that a gertle easterIy
wind was blowing in the latitude of the
Canary Islands.
And we also believe, that the great
discoverer, while making his home On
the Madeira and Azores, found in his
keen searching, sufficient drift to con-
vince him, that undiscovered lands cou d
be found beyond the Western ocean
So when the time came to conduct hiS

A HEROIC TRIO.


Travis, Crockett and Bowie and
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 "Hemsknngla" and
the Tales of the Nibelungen" and the
"Song of Roland" will never be writ
ten because the Hector of an ignored
"Ilad" has been forgotten. Zone of the
requirements of an epic-a true epic-is
that it's 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 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 or
1t 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
mopyln 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 or
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 "Iliad,"
with its butcheries, its glorihcatton OF
inordinate selfishness and vanity, as q
classic. Achilles-murderer, egotist, ruf.
fan and liar-is hero. But the name
of Bowie, the name Of the man who
gave his life TO his dag 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,
legendary figure, formidable, sad. He
died facing down injustice, dishonesty
and crime; died in his boots and the
same world that has glorified Achilles
and frgotten Travis finds none so poor
IN do him reverence

and that it will shake the state from
end to end. He exhibited papers,
letters, affidavits and evidence of
proof of his assertions, and he says
that as matter of fact he is not
concealing evidence. If it is evil
dence that is wanted he will show
letters and tell stories which will
startle even Tampa, accustomed as
it is, to sensations of the most strenu-
Gus type.

ward to a very busy building season
this year. Investors who have money
are beginning to realize that they can
receive far better returns for the money
invested in city residences than in al
most any other legitimates business.
The demand for lots for building pur-
poses has been brisk during the past
few weeks, and when the weather
opens up there Is sure to be an unusual
amount of building commenced. The
year 1903 will be one of the most pros
porous in the real estate and building
history Of st. Paul"
Real estate dealers are receiving a
good many inquiries from those who
want ample building sites, where they
can erect houses for their own use.
Then, again, there are those who are
willing to buy a house If one can be
found that will be at all suitable. The
number of inquiries of this sort forms
a rather unusual experience in the Of
fees of the brokers at this season Of
the year. 1t affords a cheerful out
look for the coming season, as we'll as
for the prospect for business immedi-
ately at hand.
These inquiries cover a wide range
and practically include all classes of
home owners. The idea, if such ex-
lists, that only persons of large means
become owners of homes in st. Paul,
is not at all based on the actual facts.
1t is probably true that there are more

NEWSBOYS WOULD

Applications for Place in
Band Come From $50
Youngsters.

To wear a coat with shiny brass but
tons and beat on a drum or blow into a
horn seems to be the ambition of every
neWsbOy in ST. Paul. One hundred and
fifty Of them have made application to
join the neWsboys' band which the La
dies Auxiliary to the Northwestern
Manufacturers union contemplates Or
ganizing.
One hundred Of these boys must be
disappointed, for Mrs. Maurice Auer-
bach and Miss Nellie A. Hope, who
have charge of the arrangements, have
decided to limit the organization to
fifty members. But there will be a
waiting list of fifty more. so that when
ever one Of the members drops out or
is dismissed his place will be supplied
by boy from the waiting list.
The committee has already held three
meetings with the neWsboys and a few
of the boys have been selected. Within
the next fortnight a final meeting will
be held, when the band will be formally
organized. The committee has received
twenty musical instruments, donations
from the musicians of ST. Paul and
Minneapolis. Mr.. Graves, of the Fort
Smelling band, has rendered his serv-
ices to the committee which has I'M
dertaken the organization of the new
band. 1t is probable that the News
boys band Of Minneapolis will give a
concert in st. Paul in the near future
for the benefit Of the new organization.

BUILDING BONES.
Of Great Importance That Children
Have Proper Food.

Of Great Importance That Children
Have Proper Food.
A child will grow up with weak and
small bones or strong and sturdy
frame, depending on the kind Of food
given.
That's why feeding the youngsters is
of such great Importance. The chill
dren do not select the food-the re-
sponsibility rests with the parent or
guardian, or with you if you select the
food for boy or girl.
The scientific selection of this food
should begin as early as possible
That's when the delicate little plant
needs the tenderest care. A we'll
known lady Of Calistoga, Cal, says.
About two years ago my little niece
was taken sick. When medical aid
was called one physician pronounced
the case curvature of the spine: an
other called it softening of the bones
and gave but little hope of her recov-
cry. For weeks she had been failing
before her parents thought it anything
but trouble from her teething.
'She had been fed on mushes and
soft foods of different kinds, but at
last her stomach could retain scarcely
anything. At this time she had be-
come weak little skeleton of human
fty that could not much more than
stand alone.
1.-THE doctors changed her food sew
eral times until finally she was put on
Grape-Nuts, which she relished from
the first and ate at almost every meal,
and her recovery has been wonderful.
She has been gaining ever since in
strength and weight.
'She has eaten dozens of packages
Of Grape-NutS in the last year and a.
half, and the child is now a rosy
checked and healthy little girl, still
clinging to her Grape-Nuts
1t is plain the food has saved her
life by giving her body the needed ma
terial to keep it well and the bone ma
terial to build with" Name given bv
