Old shoes.
Youths Companion.

Youths Companion.
Few persons know what becomes O.
old shoes or the method in which they
are utilized. A few of the more respect
able cast-off shoes are sometimes re-
paired and sold again for a nominal
price to some person who is not fastid-
ious: but as general rule they are put
to other uses.
LII France children's shoes are cut
from the larger pieces. which are OBJ
tanned by ripping up old boots, but in
this country, as well as abroad, the
practice now is to convert the scraps into
leather pulp, which may be so treated
as to produce substitute for the real
artiele-cheap and comparatively worth
less. of course.
OF late the manufacture of an arti-
flcial leather wall-covering, selling I'M
der high-sonnding name. makes a
market for all the WORKOUT boots and
shoes of the American people, so that in
its revised form the discarded footwear
OF the most wretched of earth's chill
dren may look down for years upon the
scenes of splendor, such as the forlorn
wearer saw not even in his dreams.
There are other uses, as well, includ-
ing the manufacture of buttons, combs.
knife-handles and other articles which
are interesting, but of which the public
knows little. Carriagemakers. book
binders and picture-frame-m con-
sumo this artificial leather To a certain
extcn. for their cheaper grades of work.

SHE SAW HEAVEN.
The, Strange Story of Sick Girl
Her Seeming Death.


San Jose Special.
A story of the SOULS experience with
the hereafter and its subsequent re-
turn to the body is causing a
great deal of interest here. Daisy
Williams. the thirteen-year-old daugll-
Ter of Alfred Z. Williams. living at the
corner OF First and Martha streets, had
been sick for the last three months
with quick consumption, superinduced
by an attack of measles, and died this
morning. Her parents state that four
weeks ago to-day, their daughter. to all
appearances, died.
After az period of twenty inmates,
during which no sign of life was mani
tested. the girl suddenly revived and
said to her little sister: ''Maude. |
have come back to stay awhile with
you" The girl then told that she had
been in heaven, and said that OH her ar
rival her little sister. who had died nine
months before. flew to her, took her by
the hand and introduced hdr to Jesus.
Her description of heaven was most
vivid. She related that she saw a host
of winged angels flying in every direc-
ton with the swiftness of light. She
told whom she had seen in heaven and
gave the maine of many relatives of the
family that had died before she was
born, and also the names of persons
whom the family say she could not
have known and never heard of.
She stated that Jesus had led her by
the hand and showed her view of hell.
She saw many persons there, but recog-
niZed only one, Mrs. Armour, vino
died here some time ago. She said that
Jesus told her that she must on her re-
turn to earth tell her family what she
had seen, and if they did not believe
the statement that He would come Him
self or send her little sister to con-
vince them.
When describing their appearance TO
her mother she said: why, mamma,
they are just like men," She said that
she had do conception what they
looked like before. She told her fam
lily that Jesus message to them was
that they would he saved If they
would be good. She told her father
that Jesus had instructed her to say to
him that he must stop swearing and he
would be saved.
Since the time of the purported trans
lation and her death to-day the girl re-
peated the story TO several with out the
slightest deviation. The family at first
did not believe it, supposing it was the
result of the delirium, but they are now
positive that the girl was never deliri-
Gus during her sickness and that the
story was correct. Many of those liv-
ing in the immediate neighborhood are
firmly convinced also of the truth of her
experience as narrated.

CorDelia rancho, California manor
house, constructed of rough beams and
surrounded by mud and cattle, instead
OF gardens, parks, green grass and flow
ers. COrnelia was native grandee, and
claimed the right of 400 square miles of
territory. Although the invasion of her
country by the gold hunters had swept
away the greater part of her herds. yet
there still remained over 1000 head. In
full dress. adorned with gold chains,
pearls and jewels. she looked very mag

This, however, was upon state occa

home dress was an old broad brimmed

shirt and short pettIcoat of coarse red
hanne. She ruled over thirty Indian

port. had drlfted to that Eden before
the rude gold hunters dispersed the
charm of silence, simplicity and ig-

The Irish captain was not slow to per-

lie therefore proposed to her 10 take
charge of the cattle and sell to the best
advantage, on condition that he should
have half of the sum realized, which
proposition was reluctantly accepted
by the sonora. The Irish captain now
organized for the common defense by
calling general meeting and binding
each by covenant to take care of his
neighbours property, by armed force
when necessary. But in short time
thereafter boat laden with stolen beef
from the senOra's herds was captured
and the cattle thieves taken prisoners
by the Frenchmen of Low point.
The thieves were tied. put under a
boat turned upside down, and closely
watched. The Irish captain himself
escorted the prisoners to San Francisco
the following morning, and delivered
them into the hands of the civil author

their lawless crimes they were set at
liberty by the civil authorities, and re-
