Miners' Bills Approved.
Before leaving Philadelphia Messrs. 1 ,
Mitchell, Uompers, Attorney Harrow
and representatives of the mine workers'
union had a conference in regard to a 1
number of measures for the betterment
of miners and other laborers, that have
been introduced into the Pennsylvania
legislature. There are live of these bills,
and a 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 j
employed about the outside workings,
and none under sixteen years about the
inside workings of an anthracite mine.
A third bill considered and approved
was the employers' liability law, which
makes the employer share in the respon
sibility for accidents to mine workers,
due to carelessness or stupidity on the -
part of follow employes. At present in
jured men have no redress in law.
Senator Thomas' bill creating a de- 1
partment of mines was approved after 1
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.
BREVITIES.
John Hrogan, who has just been seat
ed as a director in VYilkesbarre town
ship, after a contest lasting a year, on
Saturday night had six men arrested on
the charge of voting Illegally. Two are
not citizens and four paid no taxes with
in the limit required to make their votes
legal. The contest showed that 14.') il
legal votes were cast against Hrogan.
, Sol. A. Ilacharach, of Wilkesbarre,
has been reappointed to the position he
has filled in the executive department,
Harrisburg, the past four years. It was
thought some time ago that Mr. Bachar
ach would not receive the appoinment
owing to his activity in the canvass of
Mr. Eikin for the gubernatorial nomina
tion.
Lackawanna court passed sentence
on Saturday on councilmen of the
borough of Archbaid, who were convict
ed on Thursday on the charge ol main
taining a nuisance by not keeping in
repair the road running through the
borough from Jermyn to Brown Hollow
They were directed to pay a fine of 85
each and the costs and to abate the
nuisance within ninety days.

with the result of the voting.
(J. O.—Well, sergeant major, bow

A HEROIC TRIO.
Travln. Crockett and Ilotvle and a
Keitleeted American Epic.
The late Frank Norris in an article
In Worltl's Work says that the Ameri
can epic, which on the shelves of pos
terity should have stood shoulder to
shoulder with the "Heinskringla" and
the "Tales of the Nibelungen" and the
"Song of Roland," will never be writ
ten because the llector 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 uiul terrible
Journey from the Mississippi to the
ocean is an cpie in itself. Yet no seri
ous 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 a trumpet
call la the word, and only the look of
it 011 the printed page is a Hash of fire,
but the very histories slight the deed,
and to many an American born under
the same flag that the Mexican rifies
shot to ribbons on that splendid day
the word is meuulugless. Yet Ther
mopylae 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 churcb fougbt 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 "Iliad,"
with its butcheries, its glorification of
inordinate selfishness and vanity, as a
classic. Achilles—murderer, egotist, ruf
fian 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 a knife. Crockett is the
hero only of u 'funny story' about a 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, u
legendary figure, formidable, sad. lie
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
to do him reverence."
Needier Alarm.
I>angerous things look safe, and safe
things look dangerous. The trouble is
all in the beholder's eye, as the common
expression is. An Englishman was 011
a voyage to Spain.
Ships were flying by of varying
shape, rig and color. One, the English
man noticed, was bearing slowly down
toward him, with her cargo piled 011
deck half way up the masts. What
could she be? Ilow could she lioi>o,
laden in this way, to live ont the faint
est suspiciou of a gale?
The English traveler was consider
ably exercised about her. Something
surely ought to he done to make such
rascally "deck loading" illegal and iiu-
I possible. He scanned the vessel with
his glass. The breeze was light, but
slie rode buoyantly. At last a sailor
cleared lip the mystery.
"Why, sir," he said bluntly, "she's
only u coaster loaded with cork."
AdvnntnKi' of Advertlainff.
"Will you allow me to ask you a
question?" Interrupted a man in the
audience.
"Certainly, sir," said the spellbinder.
"You have been giving us a lot of
figures about immigration, increase in
wealth and all that," said the man.
"Let's see what you know about fig
ures yourself. How do you find the
greatest common divisor?"
Slowly and deliberately the orator
took a drink of water.
Then he pointed ids finger at the
; questioner, lightning flashed from his
I eyes, and he replied in a voice that
made the gas Jets quiver:
"Advertise for it, you ignoramus!"—

Mr, Jones'
Valentine
Story
Cy HOWARD FIELDING
CcrpyriQhU 190?, bj/ Charles XT. Tlooke
THE young author seated himself
with that nonchalance which
may be expected in one who is
introduced by the editor in
chief to the mere editor of a depart
ment. He scratched a match upon the
side of my desk—it really is mine and
not the establishment's—and lighted
one of those Egyptian cigarettes which
smell like an early spring bonfire in
Maggie Murphy's back yard.
"What kind of stuff do you want?"
he inquired.
"I'd take a good valentine story,"
said I.
At that my visitor assumed a smile
suggesting the early stages of seasick
uess.
"Oh, I say," said he in a tone of lan
guid protest, "that sort of thing's
played out, don't you think? Who
eares about valentines? There's no ro
mance in them any more. In society,
people notice the day at all, they
send flowers, not picture cards."
"Our circulation exceeds 400," said I.
"We have outgrown society. Give us
something about young men and wo
men."
The talented author blew a greeu
Egyptian cloud into the air and slowly
shook his head.
"I don't see anything in it," he de
clared. "The valentine is a dead issue."
Now, though I had never met young
Mr. Breck before that day, I had read
some of his stuff, and I knew that he
could do good work. Ho was a western
product, and such of his stories as I
had seen were as full of spirit as an
unbroken pony. Eastern civilization
seemed to have taken the life out of
him with astonishing rapidity, or it
may have been the Egyptian ciga
rettes. I was conscious of a sort of
rage against him, partly because bis
affected manner was such a disappoint
ment to me, but chiefly perhaps he
cause lie had treated my commonplace,
old fashioned notion with contempt.
"We're going to have a lot of valen
tine stuff in the issue of Feb. 13," said
I, "and most of it is rattling good, hut
of course if it doesn't appeal to you"—
Breck waved the reeking cigarette
before my eyes as if in some form of
Incantation, and, having reduced me to
silence by this, he said:
"You run the supplement, I'm told—
the literary and artistic end of the pa
per?"
"That's what I'm here for," I replied.
He shook his head very sadly and
muttered:
"Valentine stories! Good Lord!"
"Why, what's the matter?" I in
quired.
"Now, look here," said he. "I try to
keep pretty close to life; to write the
thing that is and not the dream. Do I
make myself clear? Well, such being
the case, let me ask you one question.
In the last ten years have you known
or heard of any human creature who
has attached any serious importance to
a valentine or had any really romantic
adventure connected with one?"
"Yes, sir; I have," said I.
He shook his head slowly and sadly.
I could have cuffed him for that inso
lence, and yet his question, his method
of getting at the matter, appealed to
me.
"I will spin you a little yarn," said I;
"a true yarn and not a bad one."
"Delighted," said he, lying back in
his chair and closing his eyes, while
~i W^^dt
HE LAY BACK IN HIS CHAIR AND CLOSED
HIS EYES.
the smoke from his cigarette, now
pointing straight upward, ascended to
the ceiling and seemed to stick there.
"This happened to a fellow named
Jones," said I. "He was a newspaper
correspondent in the Philippines. He
had been out there six months and
hadn't hud a letter from a gill."
"Particular girl?" queried Breck.
"Any girl," I replied. "There was a
particular girl; not so very particular
either, and yet he'd have been mighty
glad if she had remembered liim on the
other side of the world. Most fellows,
of course, would have found a romance
of some kind suited to their individual
tastes and fancies out there, but Jones
didn't have the luck. I don't know that
he was a particularly sentimental fel
low, yet it seemed rather hard to him
that there shouldn't be a girl sorne
where who cared for him to the extent
represented by the moderate price of
postage. He said It was as if he had
died unlamented and was Just finding
it out in the other world.
"He'd been brought up in a little, so
ciable city where everybody knew ev
ery body else, and though he no longer
had any close relatives there—very few,
indeed, on earth—there were his old
friends, including some very nice girls,
whom he had traveled a hundred miles
out of his way to say goodby to just
before leaving his native land. They'd
all promised to write to him"—
"Including the girl?" said Beck.
"Yes," said I. "And the fact is that
a considerable package of mall for him,
sent through the publishers whom lie
represented, and tardily forwarded, had
gone to the bottom of the Pacific ocean,
but he didn't know that.
"In Manila he met a young fellow
named George Templeton, from the
same town as himself. Templeton had
not been bred in the first circles, and
his early reputation for industry and
sobriety was not of the best. Jones
had ra tlier looked down upon him. and
Templeton, no doubt, had found some
reason for looking down upon Jones.
HE SAT THERE ALL MIGHT.
It's a privilege never denied a freeborn
American. However, they became
friends in Manila because it was so far
from home.
"Templeton was a serjfeant of volun
teers and a homesick soldier if ever
there was one. He excited Jones' sym
pathy, which became acute when
Jones learned that there was a girl at
home who had stopped writing to Tem
pleton for an unknown reason. This
Is a serious matter when a fellow real
ly eares for the girl and she is 10,000
miles away and there's no method of
learning why she no longer writes.
Fancy waiting for a letter to go half
way around the world and for the re
ply to come loitering back or not to
come at all! Templeton was not nat
urally sensitive, but the experience
had made him so. He told his secret
grudgingly because it was forced out
of him, but he never revealed the name
of the girl.
"In the latter part of January Tem
pleton's compdny was sent up into the
Interior to a little forsaken village
where there was a peck of trouble. A
mail steamer came in the day before
the detachment marched, but it
brought no letter to Templeton. The
poor fellow revealed this misfortune to
Jones with tears in his eyes. He seemed
to think that this was his last chance.
"A few days later Jones learned en
tirely by accident that a letter for
Templeton had really come on the
steamer and had been delivered by
mistake to a surgeon of the same sur
name. The addressed side of the letter
had been, wet, and tlie ink was a mere
blot, so that the word Templeton was
about all that could be deciphered.
The surgeon, however, detected the
given name of 'George' and did not
open the letter.
"Jones had laid it in his mind to try
to get through to this place where the
trouble was. lie thought he saw a good
story in it. He told the surgeon of his
intention and was permitted to take
the letter. By pulling all kinds of
wires lie got leave to join a small par
ty that was going up with dispatches,
and the result was that he hud adven
tures enough to fill a book. The party
got through alive, but every man of
them was wounded, including Jones,
who made the last forty miles of the
journey practically on one leg. But
Tenipleton's letter—which lie was
morally convinced was the letter—re
posed in liis breast pocket when he
staggered into camp.
"He found Templeton flat on his hack
and raving with fever in a quaint cen
tury old church that had been turned
into a hospital. The surgeon in charge
told Jones that it was practically all
over; the man was as good as dead.
'Will he be conscious again?' asked
Jones. And the surgeon said that it
was possible.
'"When is it likely to happen?'
" 'Heaven knows,' answered the sur
geon.
" 'l'll wait,' said Jones. And he sat |
down on the foot of the bed. His |
wound was dressed and he was fed '
while he sat there. Of course they j
tried to take him away, but he wouldn't
go, and as everybody was pretty busy
he was presently forgotten.
"He sat there all night, sometimes in
that conscious sleep which is the prod- i
not of physical weariness and mental j
concentration fighting for supremacy. '
He was half crazy from a dozen
causes, and he held that letter iu his I
hand every minute.
"It seemed to him that by continual j
feeling of it while in that peculiar men- |
tal state he gained an idea of what
was in it. and at times he felt ashamed
of knowing. The envelope was square,
•ml there was a hard iuclosure that
seemed like u small photograph. But I
after awhile Jones became aware that
the fdges of this card were ornamen
tally Irregular, and then he knew what
It was. The thing was a valentine,
and It had traveled many, many miles
—a fed latterly by a route never intend
ed ?y the reach this dying
man in time. The date, in fact, was in
advance of the saint's day. It was the
night of Feb. 11.
"Templeton raved and tossed, and he
said some things that might go to a
feeling man's heart, considering the
circumstances, but he mentioned no
name. About 3 o'clock he became
quiet, and from that hour till morning
he seemed to be sinking down to death.
Then he stirred and half raised him
self.
" 'Hello, Jones!' said he. 'Where did
you come from?'
" 'l've got a letter for you, George,*
was the reply. 'lt came after you left.'
" 'Give it to me,' said Templeton, ex
tending a weak, thin hand.
"He took the letter and raised it to
his breast as he sank back against the
pillow. Jones waited, but Templeton
did not move. He lay there smiling,
with the letter on his breast. The man
was dead.
" 'This is a valentine that some one
has sent to him from home,' said Jones
when the surgeon came. 'I think we
ought to bury it with hiip.'
" 'How do you know what it is?'
asked the surgeon.
"Jones could not answer.
" 'We ought to open it,' said the doc
tor. 'in order to communicate with the
writer. Some one might want to know
that he got it.'
"He took the envelope out of the dead
man's hand and opened it after some
hesitation.
" 'Dear George,' he rend in a whisper,
'mail this to Frank Jones if you know
where he Is. and never tell him who
sent it. I don't know how to address
him, but you can find out.'
" 'That's mine,' said Jones, in a
dream.
"The doctor put the iuclosure into his
hands. It was in a separate envelope,
unaddressed.
" 'This is a friendly letter from a
mighty fine girl.' said the doctor. 'l'd
like to take something of this kind with
me when 1 go.'
"He put it back Into its envelope and
laid it inside the rough woolen shirt
which was the dead man's garment.
" 'He has delivered your message, lit
tle girl,* said lie, 'and he'll never tell
who sent it.'
"So that's the whole story. Jones has
come back to this country, and he has
that valentine—a pretty card with a lit
tle love verse on it, but not a scrap of
writing. He doesn't know who sent it.
but if he did I think he would find that
girl. I feel quite sure that he would
find that girl."
"Not bad, as such things go," said
Breck, rising, "but conventional."
"Conventional be — I beg your par
don," said I. "Why, the thing is true."
"I don't see that that helps It any,"
replied Breck. "However, thnt's nei
ther here nor there. I'm hard up, and
if a valentine story's what you want
"THAT'S MINE," SAID JONES.
I'll go home and see what I can do for
you. By the way. it wasn't Temple
ton's girl, of course?"
"The one who sent the valentine?
Certainly not," I replied. "When Jones
got back to this country, lie looked up
Tenipleton's affairs a hit to see wheth
< r lie could do anything for his family
and that sort of thing, and he happened
to discover that the girl for whose let
ter he had waited was really waiting
for him—waiting, as 1 have faith to be
lieve, very near that rude church in
Luzon where the man closed his eyes
so happily to open the eyes of his soul
next moment in her presence."
"You mean she had died?" said
Breck.
"Precisely," I replied.
"And Joues hasn't found the otie girl
who remembered him upon the far side
of the world?"
"No," said I, "but he will."
Breck lighted another of his deadly
cigarettes.
"Why can't I write this thing for
you?" he Inquired.
"Not for your life, my friend." said I.
lie stared through the first great
cloud of smoke.
"Why not?" he demanded.
"Because I'm 'Joues,'" said I, "and
at present '.lie matter is sacredly confi
dential. When I have found that girl, I
shall write the story myself."
He WAN Rlxht.
Cromwell stood moodily watching the
battle of Naseby.
"Why so downcast?" inquired his
generals. "Aren't we making glorious
history?"
"Not much!" cried Oliver. "We're
only furnishing material for some fool

With an imprecation on posterity he
rushed oft' to dictate his terms of sur
