The June indue of tho "Oregon Native Bon" has Just been received by the Astorlan. It contains Its usual rich fund of travel, poetry, local history. anecdote, biography and Action. No pioneer or other person Interested In Oregon lore can afford to be without the Oregon Native Son. JuBt as we go to press, says the TJ11 amook Herald, we learn of the death of Commissioner Leonard Alley, which OO' curred at hla home on the Nehalem river, about four o'clock this morning, Ha had been a sufferer from heart dls case for a number of years, but got up this morning In his usual health appar ently, and while out to get wood to build a flro, fell dead. E. N, Carter, who had charge of tha Cla-rtamiui hatchery, at Btone, and J, N, Wlsnur, field ioperlutpnlnat of the flu! commission for Ori-Kn, were In I'urtlaml from the Clackamas Sunday. In Makln of their work, they said tha hatcheries will Kially rt-plenlsh the Columbia and Willamette rivers . (til year, aa verythlnir, la IMn done to Jaumh a vaat nuinh'T of young fry. Tha naval board, consisting- of Cap tain Ilunry Cllans, Lieutenant I'hlllp Andrews and Civil fcnclner, K, It Buiiford, which' waa mwilnir in Port land ywU-rday, will arrlva In Astoria by the noon train today. Tha puipoaa of the twerd la to examine the Colum bia rlvnr with a view to autotlh a suitable alta for a drydotk and making rvconimrnditlona concerning It to tha secretary of the navy. Mr. Urmham Van Iun, president of tba Chamber of Commwre, on behalf of tba oomon-r-clul lntinata of Astoria, will accom pany tha board on tha InvestlKatluns wMih It Infnda to make of various polnla on tht river from Astoria, The failure of the authorities to pun- lnh thos engagrd In the cutting affray at Hammond furnlshee anotner evi dence of grave weakness In the atat- uti. It la purely another case where in one Individual violated the law by attempting to stab another And wherein the authorities are rendered powerless meroly because the party upon whom the assault waa committed refuses to prosecute or evm swear to a warrant. Thtre arj' pco.to who do not know much about the IntrlcaU-a of Black- stone, Kent or Himon nui wno nave convictions as to pure Justice, who be lieve that a man who declines to prose cute an offender against the law should be punished, particularly when he.ls the principal or only witness. The bos- ball name at A. F. C. Park Huml' waa the best played In Astoria this scuson. The contest waa between a picked Portland turn and the regu lar Astoria team. The score waa I to J In favor of the Aaturlana. The vis iting team had the best of the acore up to the beginning of the eeventh In ning, when the score stood 1 to J In their fuvor. From that time on. how- ver. the Astoria boys had everything their own way. Had It not bet:n tor the suM-rlor field work on the part of the Astoria team, the honors would not have been easy. The work of the pitch ers and catchers of both teams was exceptionally clever. The batting, how ever, with few exceptions, could have been much better. The day waa aup erb save for the gusts of wind which kept the sand flying about In clouds, but on the whole those who witnessed the game were well pleased. The regatta committee haa been doing some hard work within the past day or two, paying particular attention to the counties preliminary details necessary to the success of the big carnival. The people of Aatorla are greatly enthused aver the prospect of good weather. While the weather conditlona at that time are, from this date, problomatlcal. there are many reasons to believe that the heavens will postpone their tear shedding until after the closing day of the regatta. Chairman Stockton haa appointed a press committee In other worda a "committee on publicity" com posed of the following newspaper men: P. R. Sovey. of the Newa; Richard Lee. of the Dudget. and C. Eugene Dunkell, of the Astorlan. The committee hat consigned Mr. Sovey to the arduous du ties of chairman. The press commit tee haa already Inaugurated an excel lent plan whereby vaat quantities of free advertising can be obtained from the coast newspapers without coat. The finance committee reports splendid progress in Its work of soliciting sub scriptions and the result of Its work will probably be announced within a few days. M VESUVIUS HAS LOST ITS CONE. Thlt fiery crater, now suddenly alle'nt, waa explored by scientific men who discovered that the cone had disap peared. Several thenrlea are propound ed aa to why the eruption ceased, also resrardlng the disappearance of the cone. The general belief la that it waa due to subsidence, and which It look ed upon as providential. It waa aa unexpected as are the stomach disor ders with which people suddenly find themselves afflicted, Slight symptoms are neRiected, until dyspepsia Is chron ic. The remedy to take la Hoatetter!

Just before the close of the meeting Councilman Scheroeckau made a mo tion that a committee of three be ap pointed to draft amendment to the city charter with a view to having them passed by the legislature. Astoria's charter, said Mr. Scheroeckau, Is not up to the requirements of the city and hi? expressed the conviction that' not only the councllraen, but the taxpayers at large, would welcome certain amend ments. ' The portion of the charter at which the amendment wttl.be princi pally aimed will be that section provid ing for aasessmenta on atreet Im provements. ' The motion waa carried without dlesent and Mayor Bergman announced that be would appoint the committee later on and notify the ap pointee by mail.

An unusually large amount of piece work was authorised by the council at last nlght'a meeting. The board of equalisation recom mended the confirmation of the assess ment, levied for the improvement of Seventeenth street from Franklin ave nue to Grand avenue. ' The street committee filed lta accept ance of the Improvementa of Seventh street. Ordinances came up for second read ing as follows: For the acceptance of Seventh street from the north line of Bond to the south aide of Astor street. A motion was made to suspend the rulea and put the ordinance to final passage. Councilman Parker objected and the matter waa laid over until the next meeting. An ordinance waa introduced for the acceptance of the improvement of Commercial street from the west line of Tenth street to the west line of Eighth. There was considerable haggling over the matter.

An ordinance for the Improvement of the north half of Commercial street from the west lino of Eighth to the east line of Seventh streets was passed on third reading.
