s ASTORIA, OREGON, TUKSDAY. MARCH 17, HMM Ti ISOLD RZUABLE 7Ah Absolutely PuraT THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE COUNCIL MEETING City Father Declare In Favor of Crushed Rock, At the regular meeting of '.he city council last evening resolutions were Introduced by Councilman Burns and adopted by unanimous vote declaring Its Intention to macadamise Fourth ni Fifth streets from Commercial to Astor, Seventh street from Thiane to Bond, and Eight street from Commer cial to As'or, using a construction sim ilar to that employed on the courihouse block on 'Slshth street. Sidewalks re to be built of lumber on both sides of the street, except along the .ustoms house block, where the walks are to be of concrete. The, resolutions i.iovide for the creation of special assess-nent districts to raise the necessary funds to pay for the Improvements. , On the reeommeniation of the street committee the council is lonimitted to ths improvement of Cedar street by planking. The resolution is supported by a petition ignd by 35 property own era, residents of the locality, who de sire the street built at once as it Is needed for ho transportation of sup- . plies to the Hume mill now in course of construction in that end of the city. A rcmonstranc: was presented asking that the Improvement be done with crushed rock instead of iumb?r. It Is stated on good authority that the latter would have len $00 cheaper for the property owners, besidjs being more durable, if they could have been induc ed to consent to its use. A resolution was also introduced by : Mr. Burns, und adopted, for the con struction of a sewer on Eighteenth street from Grand avenue to. Exchange street, and providing for a special as sessment for that purpose. A communication from the county court was reported favorably on by the Btreet committee and adopted, recom mending that the city improve the streets from Fourteenth and Jerome to the city water works with crushed rock to be supplied free by the county, the property owners to pay only the ex pense of actual construction. The ordinance which sought to make more stringent regulations for the fire department and place Its employes di rectly under the control of, and am enable to the council, proved unpopu lar and was lost when put to vote.

CUTICURA OINTMENT Purest of Emollients and Greatest of Skin Cures. The Most Wonderful Curative of All Time . For Torturing, Disfiguring Humours. Cutlcara Ointment is beyond qnestlon the moat successful curative for tortur ing, disfiguring humours of the skin and scalp, including loss of hair, ever com pounded, in proof of which a single anointing with it, preceded by a hot bath with Cutlcura Soap, and followed in the severer cases by a dose of Cutl cura Resolvent Pills, is often, sufficient to afford immediate relief in the moot distressing forms of itching, burning and scaly humours, permits rest and sleep, and points to a speedy core when all other remedies fall. It is especially so Id the treatment of Infants and chil dren, cleansing, soothing and healing the most distressing of infantile hu mours, and preserving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp a&d hair. Cutlcura Ointment possesses, at the lame time, the charm of satisfying the simple wants of the toilet, lu caring for the skin, scalp, htir and hands from In fancy to age, far more effectually, agreeably and economically than the most expensive of toilet emollients. Its "Instant relief for sklD-tortured babies," or " Sanative, antiseptic cleans ing," or "One-night treatment of the hands," or "Single treatment of the hair," or " Use afterathletics," cycling, golf, tennis, riding, sparring, or any sport, each m connection with the use of Cutlcura Soap, is sufficient evidence of this. Millions now rely on Cutlcura Soap, assisted by Cutlcura Ointment, for pre serving, purifying and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales and dandruff, and the stopping of falling halr.for softening, whitening and toothing red, rough and sore hands, for baby rashes, Itching and chaflags, as well as for all purposes of the toilet, bath and nursery.

The general election In Germany, which will take place three months hence, "ays .a Trib une dlsptitch from London, will piob ably be a more bitter one than any previous occasion, as several Important public lnrsts will be at stake, which are In direct antagonism to each othei.
