Sheriff Shaver this week sold the
property from the delinquent tax rol

like $1700 and Mr. Cross, president of

NEW SITE FOR MILL
REPORT CURRENT THAT BAGBY'S SAW
MILL WILL GO TO AURORA.
Mr.
Bagby Proposes to Oo Into the Export
Trade and Plans a mill With a Capacity
ot 56,000 Feet of Lumber Dally Has
Large Timber Resources to Draw From.
It seems very probable that Mr. Bag
by will move his saw mill to Aurora.
This will prove of enormous benefit to
Aurora, Bays the Borealis, and Mr.
Bagby should meet with all the en
couragement possible He proposes to
go in on a large scale, depending
nearly altogether on export trade.
One of the Southern Paciflo Company's
engineers was in Aurora Monday and
together with Mr. Bagby looked over
the .route for a sidetrack down to the
proposed site. The mill, as planned
by Mr. Bagby, will have a capacity of
50,000 feet of lumber per day, and em
ploy' from 15 to 50 men. 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

"LIGHTS AND SHADOWS.'
Dr,
E. L. House Lectures Tuesday
On
The Spanish War.
A crowded auditorium greeted Rev.
E. L.. House at the Congregational
Church Tuesday evening to hear his
lecture on the" Lights and Shadows of
the Spanish War. ' ' Dr. House was a
chaplain in the army during the war
and was stationed in Cuba. He said
that in 1898 was an important year in
the history of the United States, not
so much so as 1861. He spoke of the
poor people in Cuba being almost
starved and being killed off by the
Spaniards. When the Maine was
blown up he knew that war sure to
come. 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. Next Tuesday will be the last
of the series and Dr. House will
lecture on "David Harum. "
