BOY TOLD SECRETS
AND IS MURDERED BY MEMBERS
OF "BLAcK HAND" GANG.
Most Cold Bfooded Assassination, the
Murderer Having Been Selected
for the Purpose Of Furnishing
the Lad.

Salvatore Bossoto, Is years old, was
shot to death at his fathers restaurant
in Park street, New York City, by
Carlo Rossatl, 35 years old, because
he had disclosed to the police secrets
of the alleged "black hand" The ia
Their was knocked down and choked
into insensibility by the slayer, who
then ran down the street followed by
a great mob Italians to the number
Of 1000 later attacked the Elizabeth
street police station, hurled missiles
at the police and prisoner, hurting two
detectives and one policeman. They
would have torn the murderer limb
from limb If 1t had not been for the
arrival of the reserve police from two
station houses, who were forced to use
clubs and fists and threatened to
shoot.
According to the police the murder
was deliberately planned by an or
ganized gang, which is alleged to have
sent to Toronto for Rossati, who ar
rived in New York City the night pre-
vious to the crime. After his arrival
he was seen about Mulberry Bend
with Italians, and because Of his i'm
mense stature attracted attention.
Bossoto is an enemy Of these or
ganized gangs, and his son inherited
his fathers opposition to the lawless
element of their countrymen. When
not studying music young Bossoto
helped about the restaurant.

APPEAL TO ROOSEVELT.
peported Miners Request President to
Intervene.

A petition has been mailed to Pres
ident Roosevelt asking him to inter-
vene in behalf of the men deported
from Cripple Creek, Colo, last Sat
urday night and protect them in their
return to the district.
The petition is a voluminous affair,
and includes a personal statement of
John II. Murphy, general counsel for
the Western Federation of Miners, the
affidavit of Thomas II. Parfet, one of
the deported men, who claims that
he was badly beaten by members of
the mob, and a sworn statement Of
his physician to the effect that Parfet
is suffering from injuries that may re-
suit seriously. The whole case is
based on the alleged abuse received
by Parfet at the hands OF the mob.

FEARFUL LOSS OF LIFE.
Port Arthur Siege Boodiest Since
Sedan.

The final assault on Port Arthur is
imminent according to advices from
Toxic. Hundreds of Japanese guns
continue to pour a destructive fire into
the city and harbor along the lines
of forts and entertainments prepare
tory to the infantry assault. 1t is evil
dent that the Russian lines have been
weakened and partly penetrated in
the vicinity of Autzshan and Itzshan
forts.
The Japanese death-roll will be
heavily increased before they are cap
tured. The direction Of the Japanese
attack creates the impression here
that the city and defenses on either
side of the harbor entrance will fall
first. The final stand will be made
at Liaotieshan.
Japanese official channels of infor-
nation remain closed and the navy
departments announcement of the
striking of mine by the battleship
Sevastopol and the firing upon the
Russian forts by the cruisers Nisshin
and Kasuga Tuesday are the only dis
closures made for several days. 1t
Is believed here that both sides have
suffered heavy losses and that the
final record will make the siege the
bloodiest since Sedan.

foot from beneath an expanse of skirt.
It's always the case, and | don't
believe l ever knew it to fail. The
shoe manufacturers evidently are wise
to this fact, as in the cartons the
right shoe is always packed on top.
Once had lot of shoes come to me
with the left shoe on top, and it caus-
ed me such annoyance that l wrote to
the manufacturer, calling his atten-
ton to the matter so that it wouldn't
happen again. The majority of peo-
pie are right handed, yet a left hand
ed person has the right foot habit.
The right hand is larger than the
left, as it is used more and consequent
ly develops the muscles to greater
extent. On the other hand, the left
foot is larger than the right in most
persons. The difference is so slight
that we seldom have trouble in fitting
shoes, however. 1t is the left shoe
that wears out before the right, and
probably for this reason.
