A postoflice has already been
established and DR.. w. IL. Nichols

Milburn is destined to be a town
of some Importance at an early
date. The natural advantages of
the place are such that there can
be no doubt of its solidity in the
future. The lands surrounding
the town are very rich for agri-
cultural purposes and mineral de-
posits of great wealth abound in
the neighborhood, awaiting only
the hand of man to unbosom this
hidden Eldorado. But the great
est of Milburn's advantages is the
great water power of Blue river,

everlasting water supply for the
use of a city, the same element
will furnish power to run all kinds
of machinery, situated as the town
is on a level below that of the falls

CUBAN MAUSERS.
Many of Them Find Their Way to London Where They Are Sold ns
 Accurate Weapons.

Naval ordnance officers are consid- erably interested in the news which has come through the naval intelli- gence office from our representative in London that there is a traffic in London in the old Mauser guns brought out of Cuba at the end of the war with Spain. Thousands of these weapons were rescued from the arsenals of the island and brought to this country. The first lot readily commanded good prices, s ome of the guns selling for larger sum than would have been paid had the pur- chasers any idea how generous was the supply. The curiosity hunters eagerly bought the Mausers, evidently believing there was a scarcity and that the relics were priceless. The supply, however, has been so extensive many. guns have been shipped to London, where they are now offered for sale at s15 each, not as relies, but as useful weapons, carrying, as one of the deal CTS says, s.a ball small enough for a bird and big enough for 3 bear." They are also pronounced surprisingly ac- curate." Their value as relics, of course, ceased with the discovery that the supply was unlimited, but it re. mains a question whether they possess any other merit, although most of the guns had not been used to any extent, and many of them had not been used at all.
