CREWS
NEAR SHAFT Of
BURNING MINE
May Fine 43 Trapped
Men Alive in Air
Passage.

Jackson. Cal, Aug. 30.-One hun

separated the rescue party working IN
the underground depths of the Kennedy
mine from the entrance to the 1900
foot level in the Argonaut mine, where
it is believed at least of portion of the
AZ men who have been entombed In the
burning mine since midnight Sunday
are trapped.
Remarkable Roadway has been made
within the past "a hours in the work OF
attempting to cut through from the
Kennedy mine. Over 500 feet of loose
rock has been cleared away by the
rescue party and Wednesday morning
with but 100 feet yet TO go, 1t is ex-
pected the lower level of the Arsonaut
would be reached some time during the
day or night.
Timekeeoer George NJ. Downing and

nended on the unknown character OF

encountered, the work of the rescuers

'0bEY' SLATED
FOR DISCARD IN
MARRIAGE RITE
Common Prayer Book
Revision Question Up
to Episcopal Bishops.
Divorce and Industrial
Situation to Be Topics
at Portland Meet.

Portland, Aug. 30.-Revision of the
book of Common Prayer, including the
proposal to drop the brides promise
to obey from the marriage ceremony
and the elimination Of the bridegroom's
endowment of the bride with his
worldly goods; divorce, women's status
in the church, the industrial situation,
church unity and other vital religious
problems, were up for consideration
by the 139 bishops of the EplscopaI
church in the United States at an IN.
formal conference of the members OF
the house of bishops starting Wednes.
day. Preliminary to the assembling OF
one week hence of the forty-seventn
"triennial general convention Oh the
Episcopal church.
Because of the large number of i'm
bortant matters which will come before
the general convention and the long
distance which most of the delegates
have to travel to attend this meeting,
the preliminary conference of the
house of bishops has been decided upon
in order that the members of this
uppe house of the convention may
confer in advance upon the more
pressing problems and thus be in a
position to act promptly when the con-
~vention proper is called into acton
1t is exected that the sessions OF the
convention will by this plan be curtalled
by at least a week.
Most of the members of the house
oil bishops are already in Portland,
having arrived here during the past
twenty-four hours from continental
United States as well as from China
Japan, the Philippines, East Africa
Europe, South America, the West In
dies and Alaska.
The preliminary conferences of the
bishops will continue through the
week. Most important of the questions
which the convention will consider is
the matter of the revision of the boob
of Common Prayer. This revision has
been pending for six years and involves
in addition to the changes in the mar
rage ceremony, about two hundred
other proposed changes of greater ol
less Importance. There has been ex
pressed a feeling among the delegates
who are already here that the matter
should be disposed of at this conven
ton but some discussion has developed
indicating that an effort would be
made whether to refer the whole mat
ter of proposed changes to a commit
tee who shall report three years hence
or at least to postpone action at this
session and refer it to an adjourned
session Of the convention which should
be fixed for next year.
Those who advocate this latter plar
base it on the grounds that with sc
many other important matters of only
slightly less Importance to be consider.
ed, it will be impossible for prayer
book revision TO have the considera.
ton which its Importance demands.
Right Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, presi
dent of the national council of the
church, as well as president of the
house of bishops, will preside at the
bishops conferences.
