IMPORTANT MINE TRANSFER.
Pennsylvania Con! Company Obtain
Control of Schoolcy Colliery.
The Pennsylvania Coal company has
obtained control of the Schoolcy colliery
In Exeter borough, L'uzerne county,
from the Butler Mine company. Ne
gotiations gor the transfer have been In
progress for several years, but have
Just been consummated.
This colliery is of great advantan'J to
the Pennsylvania Coal company l':'o:n
the fact that It now controls, in addi
tion to the lands leased by the Butler
company, 300 acres of coal land owned
by itself on the west side of the river
and from COO to 700 acres owned by the
estate of John B. Smith, the late presi
dent of the company. This Is the first
and only plant owned by the Pennsyl
vania company on the AVest Side,
though some of the coal there has been
mined from the Hoyt shaft at Port
Griffith, by means of a tunnel under the
river.
It is intended to make a number of
improvements In the plant.
MODERN AND UP-TO-DATE.
Features of the New Shoe Store in the
Meant Building.
There are more than a few attractive
things about the shoe store just opened
in the new Menrs building by Crouch
Bros, and Beatty. The store Is modern
and up-to-date In all Its appointments
and arrangements the stock Is unusual
ly large and has been selected to meet
the wantH of a trade wanting medium
and iirst grade goods the proprietors are
young and active business men, throe of
whom have since boyhood been in tho
shoe business. These three facts make
a combination which soem destined to
liuiure a succers for the ntcrj and sat:s
fuctlon to the custom It cams.
J. B., C, A., and It. C. Crouch are from
Pittsburg, where" they have for many
years been In the shoe trade In-managing,
buying and traveling capacities. D.
A. Beatty Is from Bradford, Pa. It. C.
Crouch will be the manager and buyer
for the new store. With a Judgment
born of experience of the buslnecn' a
careful study wus made of the shoe
trade of Scranton, and ot its custom
bofore , the smallest order was given
to the manufacturers. ', The result Is
that the stock contain! about every.
thing, that Scranton people want and
nothing that they don't want. While
the cheapest grades of footwear some
times desired by a well-to-do patron
age are contained In the store, the stock
Is mostly made up of first and medium
grade goods. Of these two qualities It
has been possible, owing to the spacious
and cenvenlent shelf room, to stock tha
store with every kind of footwear
usually wanted for men and ladles,
children and youths and misses.
A customer always delights in pur
chasing goods In a well-lighted and
well arranged store, and in this respect
there is nothing lacking in the new
Fture In the Mean building. It is a
store practically surrounded by glass
and will always be at least as light as
the daylight outside and when that isn't
light enough, use can be made of the
electrical equipment.
If It Is a pleasure to patronize those
who are in some way Identified with the
city It will bo a pleasure to patronise
this store. The three Crouch brothers
have moved hero permanently. They
chose Scranton as an opening for their
business venture because they liked
the thrift of the city and its people and
because. In a commercial way. Scranton
was like Pittsburg, the city wliosa busi
ness methods they have learned and
which are like those which prevail
here.

Wiped from the Map. .
Special to The Scranton Tribune.
Ilnzleton, June 7. Stockton.one of the
smull coal towns that dot the Hazleton
region, is threatened with extinction.
Llnderman & Skeer, who virtually own
the town, finding It Impossible to adjust
their differences concerning royalties
with the owners of the coal lands have
decided to desert the place entirely and
have sent an advertisement to the lead
ing papers of the "lower regions" and
principal coal trade journals offering for
sale their entire property, consisting of
four breakers, seventy company houses,
their stores, offices and the like, all of
which must be removed before August
S.
Already the people are beginning to
move out nnd the only thing that can
save the town Is the possibility that
Bomebody will buy In the plant and
make a deal with the stubborn land
owners by which operations can be pro
ceeded with.

BOMBS AT BARCELONA.
Anarchists Have Resumed Their
Fiendish Activity in That City.
Barcelona, June 7. The anarchlBts
have resumed their activity in this city
and much fear Is entertained
that they will Inaugurate another
reign of tprror similar to that
which prevailed in 1892 and 1893
when thero wern many explostons'here,
In Madrid and other Spanish cities. At
S o'clock tonight a bomb was exploded
while a religious procession was taking
plac and several persons were killed.
The outrage has caused the greatest
excitement. This is the second outrage
or attempted outrage within a few days.
A number of anarchists have been ar
rested but as yet there la no positive
proof that any cf them cased the ex
plosion. Six persona were killed by the explos
ion and twenty-four wounded. It ia net
known what explosive the bomb con
tained, but judging from It effect must
have been very powerful.
The police thing that they will be
able to catch those responsible for the
crime through the confession of soire of
the anarchists who have been arrested.
This, however, appears to be a very
Blight hope.
