ing building on the iibrth 65 feet
of lot S, block 133. Shlvley's Astoria.
A temporary Injunction was Issued by
County Judge Trenehard. ....
As stated In the Aatarlan yesterday
morning, the Masonic LanJ and Build
ing Association leased to A. Marlngo
vloh the north half of the lot In dis
pute. Marlngovtch had purchased a
house from the Iatera.a4.4he hospital
and had awarded a contract to U Le-
bak to move the building on the prop
erty. In order to hold title to the
property, the O. R. & N. (to. put a force
of men at work on the lot Friday night,
putting In a foundation, and erecting
a small building thereon. The car
penters worked all night and 'had the
building completed by daylight, yester
day morning. This prevented Marlngo-
vich from moving his house on the
property. They then filed a suit to
secure title to the property, w. w.
Cotton, A. C. Spencer and H. F. Con
nor arc attorney for the O. R. N.
Co.. and Judge Bowlby for the Masonic
Land and Building Association.
A number of years ago, the O. R.
N. Co. purchased certain property from
James Welch, part of which Is the
present site of the O. R. & N. wharf.
In addition to certain lots, they pur
chased the water front and all riparian
rights. At that time the tide lands
extended to Duane street,, although
property has been sold there since.
Having bought the tide lands and rip
arian rights, they still Insist that the
property In question Is a part of the
riparian rights.
Ducks on Run.
Today Is going to prov a hard ses
sion for the ducks. Sheriff Linvllle,
Frank Cook and Tom Tulllnger. to say
nothing of Slddon Linvllle, left on last
night's train for their reserves up the
rlvpr. and the sheriffs costume was
enough to make any duck that ever
wnhhiixl his way down the Columhla
drop dead of fright It consisted of a
shirt waist, gored and tucked, ana a
Jecket, short behind and flaring in
front. It was about the color oi a duu
dream, and Linvllle would never have
.niton nut of town If the quarantine
officer had seen him first. ' He says he
wore the coat when he shot 13 China
phesants, but he had his fingers crossej
when he said It. Cook and Tulllnger
looked like Tom Tracy, and If there Is
...a rwd criminal up the line the
party will need their guns to stand off
the posse long enough to prove an
alibi.
Schilling's Best, so far as h
goes, means comfort and ease
and economy.
Money back; at your grocer's.
, That don't reward its workers can
. not prosper.
If you would have Astoria grow
don't forget your hustlers!
