If it is true, as asserted, that there is timber enough along Butte Creek, Rock Creek and the Pudding river to keep a mill of that capacity running for 20 years, Aurora is certainly one of the best locations in the state for a large saw milL A meeting of the city council was held last night to discuss the sewer construction in District No. 8.

He showed two fine colored views of the Maine, one taken a short time before the explosion in Havana harbor and the other at the time of the explosion. He regarded Dewey as one of the bravest men the country had ever seen and spoke at length on his work at Manila. Dr. House held the attention of his audience for an hour.
