yet in the business district there are
many places where the sidewalks
are in a very lamentable condition.
The walks around the city build

missioners who are too busy fixing
pixies and doing other work in out

Man Found Dead.

At Mottinger on the Portland &
Seattle Ey 50 miles from Kennewick.
the dead b ody OF IL man Was found
last Tuesday. June 18th The re-
mains were located on the slope OF a
steep bluff, about 400 yards from the
railroad right of-way. Nothing was
&c ind on the body to give Il clew to
identification. The coroner believes
the man must have been dead be-
tween four and five months. The
body was in advanced decomp osi-
ton. An open razor caked with
blood was lying within Il few feet of
the corpse and the throat had the
appearance OF having been cut. The
jury did not suspect any foul play,
the circumstances all pointing to sui
eide. Deceased was evidently a work
man on the construction gang Of the
