Mrs, John s. Milburn.

While the name of Milburn has, since
the attack on President Mckinley. be-
come almost a household word, and
though John G. Milburn was we'll known
even before. very few have heard of Mrs.
John G. Milburn. In reality Mrs. Mil
burn is a potent factor in home and
society in Buffalo. but club life knows
her not. She is woman OF splendid
character and strong physique, ana
would be of inestimable value in the
larger affairs of life. But Mr. Milburn
is still sufficiently English to prefer
women in private. and deprecates their
being prominent in a public way. In fact.
he has stated that he does not believe in
women's clubs, and thinks the home a
sufficient outlet for her energies.
Hence Mrs. Mifburn's membership in

acres of rich coal lands.
He Will also build a line Of railroad to
connect his coal camp with the Burling-
ton at Cody City, if the Burlington fails
to extend it's Cody line on south.
For several years the Montana copper
king has had experts in the field along
the Grey Bull river locating coal lands.
and it is said Senator Clark now prac-
tically controls the product in that sec
ton of the state.
The coal is a fine steam article. equal
if not superior to the Rock Springs coal.
and will be in demand throughout the
northwest
Senator Clark has a force of men pros
pecting and opening veins. Twelve
miles in all will be opened up and the
coal shipped to the Pacific coast and in
termediate points.
The Burlington railroad is said to be
short of coal in northern Wyoming, and
will draw heavily upon the product OF
the Clark mines.
The coal lands in question are those
which Mr.. T. p. Mcdonald, formerly
Senator Clarks manager at Bridger, is
