QUEER ACTORS.
With the Norrls & Rowe's big shows,
which are to appear here tjext Monday,
is a remarkable animal act which is
entirely out of the ordinary. This is
the congress of educated seals and sea
lions which' hey are presenting this
ason. It Is almost beyond the power
of reason to believe that seals and sea
lions, which have never been accredit
ed withany more sense than to be able
to pull themselves lazily upon a rock,
or to dine upon a fish dinner, can be
made to ,erform maneuvers and ex
ceedingly intricate tricks at the beck
and call of a human being. They have
been taught to skip ropes and to bal
ance nn3 Juggle all sorts and sizes of
articles, su?h as lighted corcbes, hoops
and balls, and they even play upon mu
sical Instruments. They have also a
clown . amoag them, who enter into
the humor of the actions with as much
zest as a human being. These perform

grand street parade, which will leave

New Plan For
Nchalcm Road
Balance Of fund To Be Used Be
tween Olncy And Jewell.
County Judge Tmichard estimates
that after the Nehalera road Is built
as far as Olney, there, will remain a
balance of $10,000 for prosecution of the
work in a southerly direction. The
graders have reached Olney, and the
road planked to within one and one
hulf mllis of that town, Jewell is the
objective "joint of the rtvnd, but the
sum of money likely to realised from
the levy made for the purpose of con
structnlng the highway will not be
sufficient to build the same character
of road beyond Olney as has been built
between that point' and the city. In
speaknr of the matter yesterday Judge
TrsTK-hard said: .
"After we build as far as Olney we
well probably have tt0,000 on band. It
Is my idea, and I believe other members
of the county court entertain the same
view, that the ba'ance remaining
should be expended In Improving the
present road beyond Olney. The peo
ple south of that point are entitled to
road facilities, and we ought to de the
best possible by them. The sum re
maining will not be great enough to
liermlt of an improvement as elabor
ate as the road thus far constructed,
but we can put in a road that will meet
present requirements at least.
"The road work south of Olney will
be governed by the new road law,
which becomes effective tomorrow. The
present work will continue to be done
under the plane originally laid out.
Under the terms of the new law each
.nad district Interested" may levy a
special tax of not to exceed 10 mills,
and It is Just possible that the people
of the several districts will make such
levies. If this is done, we could, with
the 110,000 remaining and the extra
funds provided by special levy, build
a fine highway on out to Jewell.
"This phase of the situation prompts
me to offer a suggestion for the benefit
of people living in the outside districts.
Under the new law, the money raised
by special levy can only be expended
In the district in which It Is raised. In
an Improvement like the Nehalem
road, for Instance, all the districts in
terested would perhaps not be immed
iately tributary to the tilghway, al
though the main road might be Just
such a highway as the people of all the
country affected might desire. It oc
curs to me, then, that representatives
of the Interested districts ought to get
togHher, agree on a plan of reappor
tionment of dlsricts and appear be
fore the county court intime to effect
such changes as will make possible the
proper improvement of roads. It may
be found expedient to merge several
districts Into one for the purpose of
putting through a costly road, and the
suggestion Is offered for this reason."
Under the lew law the county court
may levy, a general tax not to exceed
10 mills for road purposes, while each
dtotrict, Is at liberty to make a levy of
not to exceed 10 mills.
Yesterday Judge Trenchard and
Roadmaster Frye ,went down to Sea
side to. view the progress of the new
brige over the Necanlcum. The old
bridge is, being rebuilt at a cost of
about $1800. ; ' ' ' .
, WILL ASK FOR NEW TRIAL,
In accordance with the action of the
city council. City Attorney Smith will
file a motion for a new trial In the case
of John R. Bock vs. the City of As
toria. Bock was awarded 12500.50 dam
ages for Injuries suffered on account of
a defective street and offered to com
promise for $2000. The offer was re
jected by the council and the motion
for the new trial wilt be argued before
Judge McBrlde at the next term of
court. If It Is denied an appeal will
be taken to the supreme court.

of the Skin and Blood
Should Begin NOW
BLOOD HUMOURS, Skin Humours, Scalp Humours, Baby
Humours and every kind of Humour from Pimples to
Scrofula, with Premature Loss of Hair, may now be speedily, per
manently and economically cured by Cuticura Resolvent, greatest
of Blood and Skin Purifiers, assisted by the external use of Cuti
cura Ointment and Cuticura Soap.
Thousands of the world's best people have found instant relief
and speedy cure by the use of Cuticura Resolvent, Ointment and
Soap in the most torturing and disfiguring of ITCHING, BURN
ING, and SCALY HUMOURS, 4 ECZEMAS, RASHES,
ITCHINGS and INFLAMMATIONS.
Thousands of Tired, Fretted Mothers, of Skin-Tortured and
Disfigured Babies, of all ages and conditions, have certified to
almost miraculous cures by the Cuticura Remedies when the best
medical skill has failed to relieve, much less cure.
Cuticura Treatment is local and constitutional complete and
perfect, pure, sweet and wholesome. Bathe the affected surfaces
with Cuticura Soap and Hot Water to cleanse the skin of Crusts
and Scales and Soften the Thickened Cuticle, dry without hard
rubbing, and apply Cuticura Ointment freely to allay Itching, Irri
tation, and Inflammation, and Soothe and Heal, and lastly take
Cuticura Resolvent to Cool and Cleanse the Blood, and put every
function in a state of healthy activity.
To those who have suffered long and hopelessly from Humours
of the Blood, Skin and Scalp, and who have lost faith in doctors,
medicines, and all things human, Cuticura Remedies appeal with a
force hardly to be realized. Every hope, every expectation awakened
by them has been more than fulfilled. More great cures of Simple,
Scrofulous, and Hereditary Humours arc daily made by them than
by all other Blood and Skin Remedies combined, a single set being
often sufficient to cui e the most distressing cases when all else fails.
