ItUls were opened yesterday after

will be covered and a portion of the
center will be left open. Three slips

Considerable complaint is made by
tax payers In outside districts on ac
count of the Increase In their taxes
this year and they are Inclined to blame
Assessor Cornelius, The assessed val
uation Is about the same as last year,
but many of the districts have In-
crensed their assessment for road and
school purposes, amounting In some
precincts to 20 mills. At Seaside there
Is a 6-mlll town tax. 12-mtll school tax
and 10-mlll road tax, or nn Increase of
13 mills over last year. This is the
reason why taxes are higher, and no
one Is to blame but the people residing
in the precincts that levied the addi
tional tax.
The largest house ever at the Star
since Its Inauguration was present last

only at a premium, but Manager Ger

Fanny Donnovan, the premier para-
dost, captivated th audience and at
once became a popular favorite. Rose
and Severn are without doubt the most
provlklng mirth-makers ever In the
city and kept the audience convulsed
with laughter and were repeatedly
called out. The DeLacy's In their coon
turn was the best exhibition of the
kind ever seen in Astoria. The bill
at the Star this week Is without doubt
the best ever seen and thl popular
play house will no doubt be crowdeJ
every night. Don't mis thl show.
