CIVIC IMPROVEMENT of the game in Toitlund, and nt Just to be Tom Wjorded out for the count TWO MEN KILLED In this county, departed for Olymptu some months ago and opened a little game over there during the late ses sion. Some Yards in Astoria That Need Renovating. A well-known rortlandr tells ' having encountered him at the Wash Falal Duel Fought in Streets of Bakcrsfield. il ington capital and relates tha Inter TIIE HORNING ASTORIA N, ASTORIA, OREGON. view aa follows: SHIVLEY SCHOOL PROPERTY Thousands of Visitors Will 6. in Aa tori This Summir and Impressions Ars Created by the Appearance ot the Homes and Lawnt of th. People. "1 s tt is presumed, from statement ; made, that the civic Improvement al Junct of the Woman's club have made f tome effort to secure the beautifying of the city. It is well known that they hav served notices on a number ot property owner requesting them to remove the debres and old shacks from known that nine out of ten of these property owners who have promised to do so forgot all about it ten min utes later. The Atsorian believes it can be of some use to the ladies of the el vie improvement league by occas ionally pointing out residence and business property that would be im- proved by the removal of unsightly shacks, old piles of lumber and rub bish. Some time ago attention was called to the sight of tomato cans, old clothing and other refuse laying around Jose m some or tne yards, cut most or these have been cleaned up and prob- aoiy inrown into me sewers as tne cuy has been to considerable expense of late clearing and repairing these sani tary adjuncts to the city. Sunday thousands of people, and not a few visitors were out for a walk en Joying the beautiful Easter day. Com pliments and criticisms were profuse, according to the appearance of resi dence property. Several uncompli mentary remarks,were made about the condition of the yard of the Snivels school. There sire a'few tons of oil rubbish accumulated and a hldeou? pile of wood. The school yard should , be planted to flowers and shrubbery and the young children Interested la beautifying "the yard. In fts present condition it is one b the most unsight ly yards In that section of the city. fng beautified. Instead of the old, dl lapidated rences, stone wans, some times surmounted with a hedge, have taken the place of the fence. The, lawns are beautiful, scattered full of beautiful flowers and shrubbery that , makes it look like the home of the re v fined and enterprising citizens. In one section of the residence por tion of the city, where all the resldencs present a neat appearance is Hhe old, tumbled-down shack, formerly th home of Judge Milton Elliott. The building will never be occupied again and ought to be removed. In the rear f W. N. Smith's plumbing store on , Duane street now being improved, ane old tumbled-down shacks that are an eye core to the public. They should be declared a nuisance and removed. It has been suggested, and the suggestion is a goo one, that Instead of having board fence between yards that either a hedge be planted or a wire screen r fence put up. . They are inexpensive and make a better appearance that a board fence, each alternate board hav ing been whitewathed years ago. A row of trees or rose bushes between yards would be an innovation. It only requires a little exertion and very lit tle expense 'to make the yards of the residences of Astoria more beautiful and Inviting. The new improvement of macadam er crushed rock, with cement sidewalks is a great Improvement and gives the people residing along such streets an opportunity to discard their old fences and build low stone walls, also to set out shade trees, of which there are rery few in Astoria. These improve ments are permanent and lasting There is one thing very noticeable In Astoria. One can always discern the difference between property owned by people of enterprise and modern ideas, and thiit owned by the oldest inhabi tant This is a remark frequentl made by people while out walking. The time for spring cleaning has arrived and the fact that thousands of visitor will visit Astoria this summer should be an inducement for people to put their property In at least a sanitary condition. Eastern people are not ac customed to living with hog pens in the front yards and rubbish piles in the back. A very little effort will make a transformation in many of the homes and residences of Astoria, "What the matter with gambling in Portland V I asked Tom.

The Interior will be fin Ished In natural wood, oiled and pol lshed,and the floors will be oiled. will require about two weeks to com plete the oiling and polishing and It Is probable that the first meeting ot the common council will be held in the new city hall the first Monday in July.

CURED ByjUTICURJ Skin Fair as a Lily with no Scar to Recall Awful Sore Writes Mother. "I herewith write out in full the be ginning and end of that terrible disease eczema," aays Mrs. Win. Ryet, Elk River, Minn., "which caused my babe untold suffering and myself many aleepless nights. My babe was bora seemingly a fair, healthy child, but when she was three weeks old a swell bg appeared on the back of her head, and in coarse of time broke. It did not heal but grew worse, and the tore spread from the size of a dime to that of a dollar. I used all kinds of reme dies that I could think of, but nothing seemed to help; in fact, it grew worse. Her hair fell out where the sore was, and I feared it would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on a visit, and when he saw the baby he told me to get Cuticora Soap and Ointment right away. "To please him I did so, and to my surprise by their tie the sore began to heal over, the hair grew over it, and to-day she has a nice head of hair, her skin is as fair as a lily, and she has no scar left to recall that awful sore, and it is over eight months and no sign of its returning." . CURE PERMANENT "Your letter of the loth Inst, re ceived, asking in regard to the cure of my baby some six years ago. Well,' the disease has never returned to her head which at that time was a solid sore on top snd down the back." Mrs. Wm. Rver, Elk River, Mina. Feb. i5, 1903.

A feud between two well known mountain families, tha Walkers and Burtons and extending over a period of two decades, broke out again In tha mining town of Havllah today when Newt Walker and Dave Burton fought a duel on the streets resulting in tha instant deuth of Burton and a compnnlon nunted Uagsby. Ten or a dosen ahots were fired be fore Burton fell. Walker made hi escape and is now hidden in the moun tains. This is the third of the Burton boys to die a violent death, nil at tha hands of the Walkers. A sheriff posse has started In pursuit of the murderer, but as none hava ever been captured before, it Is doubtful If Wal ker will be arrested. I. 0. 0. F. Notice.
