Buy Boots and Shoes Now.

Now is your opportunity to buy fine
boots and shoes and all kinds of rubber
goods at sacrifice prices. All grades of
footwear in John Bellezza's store have
been reduced from 25 to 80 per cent.
AS this sale will last only thirty days
buyers should call early and make their
choice while the assortment is large.
A very large line of spring goods has
been ordered, and to make room for
them and to procure ready cash are the
reasons for the sweeping reductions in
price that have been made. Several of
the goods have been reduced to- actual
cost. This is real bargain sale and
you will regret it if you fail to call and
examine the stock. Come and let us
convince you that we are in earnest.

In THE FIFTH DISTRICT.
ABSTRACT OF ANNUAL REPORT OF
MINE INSPECTOR DAVIES.

Compared With Production in Other
Accident--Causes of the Fatalities
About the Mines.
Mine Inspector William II. Davies, of
the Fifth inspection district, has com
pleted his report for the year 1s99 An
abstract is printed by the Hazleton
Sentinel, which says:
while this year there is an increase
OF fatal accidents, there is also an in
crease in the production of coal and
number of days worked at the mines
The year just closed was the busiest
about the mines for several years past
"A glance over the table of the in
spectors report for the years '93, '94 and
'95, when over 5000, 600 tons of coal
were produced, comparing the total
number OF fatalities for these years, we
lind comparative decrease In the num-
Der of fatal accidents as compared with
the production. The nearest to COM
pare with this is 1894, when the produc-
ton was 6,132,62 and the fatal acct
dents S."
The inspector says: when l con-
sider the enormous quantity of explo-
slves used throughout the district and
know that such few accidents occurred
from its use, / do not hesitate to say
that this is remarkable showing and
reflects great credit upon the colliery
officials and the men in general who
use it. find on touring the district
that strict conformity to the rules
and methods of using explosives is ex-
acted as far as practicable from all the
employees by the several operators OF
the district"

Then each state has its own legal hoii-
DAYS, and often each city has Its special

Massachusetts observes April 10Th as
Patriots Day. Utah has July 9th a,
Pioneer day. Vermont has August leth
AZ the Bennington Battle day. Cali
fornia has September 9th as Admission

CANADA GETS 1T.
The Porcupine Mines Are in Canadian
Territory.

The Porcupine Mines Are in Canadian
Territory.
Skaguay, June &C. via Seattle, WASH,
July 23,-The work of delimiting the
provisional boundary in the disputed
Alaska Canadian territory having been
completed in that part crossing the Dial
ton trail and touching the Porcupine
district, the Americans in the district
find that they have lost large part of
what they believed was rightfully Amer
lean territory. The survey has been run
and the monuments set within the last
few weeks by o. H. Tittman of Washing
ton, d. c., and w. F. King of Ottawa
and assistants, who have simply followed
instructions as set forth in the modus
vivendi agreed to Professionally some
months ago by Secretary Hay on the
part of the United States and British
representatives after the adjournment of
the joint high commission.
The survey and demarkation of the
line leaves nearly one-half of the Porcu-
pine gold mines in the British territory,
and it has been the general opinion for
a long time that the mines, in fact the
entire Porcupine district, was on the
American side. Much of the Dalton toll
road, leading to Porcupine City, now lies
within Canadian territory also; that is,
is on the Canadian side of the iron mon
uments set on the provisional line.
