Large One ., That
Heretofore the Crystal Falls
district has been known in iron
circles as a strictly nonBes-
semer ore district. Its ores are
of a certain character that have
made them very desirable for
foundry purposes but they have
not entered into the com
position Of steel because Of their
high phosphorus contents. The
advent OF basic steel brought the
Crystal Falls ores prominently
to the front, their fiuxing
qualities making them desirable
ores for this process. The re
suit was that, sometime ago, the
large concerns commenced pick
ing up all the ore properties they
could get hold Of in this vicinity.
Next came the boom in foundry
irons and that started a volume
of exploration in this district
that has never been equaled in
the history OF the district.
One OF the earl est finds re.
ported was on the Voos property,
over among the diorites OF the
east range, a territory that had
never been explored. Stranger
still. the ore found on this prop
erty proved to be a very high
grade besremer This started a
rush into that territory and
every foot Of ground out there
was optioned, Many poo hooed

I quantity of bessemer ore and

travel on any and all roads at their ex-

he could in the State.
These men were old pew holders
here. Were they as some newspapers
have represented them?
Oh, my friends, my heart warns as
I think of not only one but scores of
the old time worshipers in this church,
and I thank God even knew them.
1t is hard to find anywhere, either in
California or any other State, a strong
er group of pew holders in one church
than the names on this list. To read
a list like that is to read the history
of a commonwealth, and emphatically
the story of Sacramento.
Go where you will in this State and
you will see monuments of their energy,
wealth and brains. You see 1t in banks,
in railroads, great universities, hos
pitfalls, asylums, old peoples homes art

SECONDHAND SHOES.
Extensive Repairs May Be Made and
Yet They May BE Had for
Very Little Money.

sign hanging in front of a shoe
makers shop where secondhand shoes
were sold had upon it these words:
secondhand Shoes with New UppeIs."
1t seemed almost that a pair OF sec
ond-hand shoes with new uppers would
be practically new shoes. but inquiry
showed that this impression was not
warranted by the facts. There is u
good deal Of fresh material in a pair
OF shoes thus repaired, but there is also
left good deal of the old. says the
New York Sun.
The new upper thus put in is a new
vamP. the front part of the upper; the
old counter, or back part of the shoe,
still remains. 1t is a familiar fact
that while the counter may break
down or wear out or get hole in it
somehow, it is much more likely TO
stay sound and good; it is the front that
cracks and breaks. And so in cut
ting secondhand shoes in order new
vamps are sometimes put in. But while
such a shoe. which has also been soled
and heeled. might easily be described
as having undergone extensive repairs.
II would be far from wholly new. There
would remain, besides the old counter,
the shank and the inner sole, and the
general shape and framework of the
shoe. and upon these the repairs could,
be made. Secondhand shoes bring va
rious prices, depending on their orig
inal quality and their condition.; pair
of secondhand shoes. resoled and re-
heeled and with new uppers. can be
bought for as little as a dollar.

KILLING MACHINES.

II is Raid that one OF tho questions

do ewhy with. or at least limit the
use Of the @horrihly destructive" im.
PIGMENTS of warfare made possible by
the discoveries OF the modern scien
fist.
The great beauty Of guns which
kill Mt tivemiles. and DISCHARGE bushel
or two of bullets each minute, is that
they do not kill. and only serve to
make war expensive and Il " de-
grees more ridiculous than it for
merly was. which will do more to
bring ab mt peace and disarmament
than all the hypocritical peace con-
ventions in Christendom. IL the nh
tions Of the earth re lily want perpet-

expense at killing human beings be
comes prohit itory there will be no

cestor few hours labor on an ar
row or club, to secure we pom cap

hand conflict. War was so cheap
then that it WAS quite the thing. The
American fleet before Cuba spent
hundreds of thousands of dollars Il
day Smelling the enemy. The enemy
was killed mt an expense OF several
hundred Thousand dollars a head.
The taxpayers grumbled Mt the ex-
pense at it. Had it cost much more,
even rich America could not have
afforded to kill men, and there wonld
have been no war. BY all means let
tile invention IT @horrible engines of
destruction" GO on. War becomes
the less dangerous and the more ri
dicuIous for their being. They are
