BROOKLYN BRIEFS

MT and Mrs William McMahon of Third street are visiting relatives in Newburgh.
 Some of the members Of the Brooklyn Improvement society were of the opinion that meeting might be called for Friday night since there was nothing done a week ago. but there is not likely to be another ses- sion until the next regular meeting. The society does very little during the summer weather which gives the members a chance to take a rest be- fore they enter upon their strenuous fall and winter duties.
 It Is said that several members of the Town Plot school district at the meeting to be held tomorrow evening, will advocate the cutting down of the salaries of some of the teachers. The teachers at Town Plot school have always been well paid and this in a way accounts for the good corps of teachers which the school is reputed to have. Although a few of the voters may wish to cut down expenses by lowering salaries 1t is not likely that the majority will favor any such action as the district for the most part is very desirous of maintaining the high standard which is now at the school.
 The following officers have been elected by the members of the grad uating class of the Duggan school: President, Arthur Kunkel; vice-presi- dent. Teresa Hughes; secretary, Thomas Fitzpatrick; treasurer, George Grady: pin committee. Rob- ert Bassett. Joseph De Vito. Edward Nesche: motto committee. Thomas Fitzpatrick. Mary o'Donnell. Teresa Hughes: valedictorian. Joseph Di Vito; salutatorian. Edward Nesche:. class prophet. Mary 0TDonnell: prophet on prophet. Thomas F1tzpat- rick; class will. Margaret Skehan: class history. Lena Ward; class ora for. Arthur Kunkel Gladys Rising was elected to make the presentation speech.

NEW FLYING MACHINE.
On an Entirely New Principle and
Cost SO. .OOO-Win Fly in Week.

New York. Sept. S-Wilbur r.
Kimbalrs helicopter had its coming
out at the Morris Park aviation
grounds yesterday, and was much ad-
mired by a large group of aeronauti-
cal enthusiasts. No attempt was made
10 send it into the air. The machine
was rolled around for inspection, and
its powerful 5O-horsepower motor was
set in motion.
According to Mr., Kimballs plans
It may be a week or even longer be-
fore he attempts a flight, because the
machine Is constructed on new
principle, and It is his purpose to
discover as far as possible how 1t
will perform in the air before he
takes the chance of wrecking the APP
paratus, and possibly ending his own
career in the bargain.
Those who inspected the heliocop-
ter were divided in their opinions as
to whether 1t will do all that its build
ers hope it will do. From distance
It looks like n spiders web, with 20
small wooden propellers caught In
the meshes. It Is constructed en-
tirely Of wood, aluminus and plano
wire, with a powerful four-cylnder
two-cycle motor, that appears to de-
velop power enough to tear the fra
gile thing to splnters. It cost $1O-
900 to build, and represents five years
Of study and experiment.

Ipctp6

Portland's third annual rose festi-
val is to be bigger. better and more
beautiful than either Of the two pre-
vious ones. Every effort will be
made By the stalwart citizens behind
the movement to raise by public sub
scrlption the sum Of 100000 to de-
fray the expenses Of a civic demon
gtration Of a weeks duration which
shall. in every way, be worthy Of the
city's magnitude and progressive
spirit. says the Oregonian.
Last year it was attempted to raise
that sum. but the financial depression

Salem Cannery Output.

Though there is quite force of wo-
men working at the cannery prepar-
ing apples and pears, the output is not
as large as this time last year, says
the Salem Statesman. The total out
put Is several thousand cases short
of what 1t was last year and there is
not much OF a promise to redeem the
deficiency. The average run OF
day now is from $50 to 200 cases,
each case containing "a cans. Last
year at this time about $4,000 cases
had been canned, while this year only
about 1900 is the result of the sum-
mer. Last year about 1000 cases had
been shipped already, but the total
this year is 1900, quite a noticeable
deficit The only explanation of the
dull market is that the fruit does not
sell well, The cannery VIII continue
to run on the pear and apple crop
until some time in October A few
berries are coming in yet, but the
amount is small

Of the most enthusiastic public meet
ings of that character ever held, and
as has already been intimated, Ralph
w. Hoyt, cashier of the Merchants
National bank, was chosen unani-
mously on the first ballot as president
of the third annual festival.
Mr.. Hoyt accepted the honor in a
Enthusiastically enthusiastic speech
and said that there was no other way
out Of it but that Portland must give
celebration that shall be not only.
Of a national but international i'm
portance and that he will do his part
to make it so if the rest of the stock
holders and directors of the festival
and public in general will help him.
Led by retiring President C. A..
Whitemore. other prominent festival
workers bespoke for Mr.. Hoyt the
heartiest support for his adminstra-
ton. And Immediately following ad-
journment every one Of the 30 stock
holders present assured the new pres
ident Of their earnest loyalty, so that
the work for the coming year bids
fair to start off more auspiciously
than It ever did before.
The stockholders met in the rooms
OF the Rose Festival association in
the SHETLAND building, with about 25
more than 30 present in person and
about 25 more represented by proxies.
The report of retiring President c. A.
Whltemore and Treasurer Ralph G.
Hoyt showed that out Of the $33,5OO
originally pledged all but about ST.
900 had beerf collected. and that the
festival had nearly $500 in cash in
the bank as a nest egg for the cele-
bratlon Of 1909.

The
General Demand

of the Well-lnformed Of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant
and efficient liquid laxative remedy of
known value; laxative which physi.
clans could sanction for family use
because its component parts are
known to them to be wholesome and
truly beneficial In effect, acceptable
to the system and gentle, yet prompt,
in action.
In supplying that demand with its
excellent combination of Syrup Of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
Of the laxative for its remarkable
success.
That Is one Of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is
given the preference by the Well.
Informed. To get its beneficial effects
always buy the genuine-manufac
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,

United states Senator Jonathan
Bourne will reach Portland Saturday
or sunday. according to word that
has been received it is estimated that
he will most likely reach the city
sunday
Senator Bourne is coming to ore
gon at this time primarily to take an
active part in the Taft campaign
What his plans are. however are not
known, as he has sent no instructions
10 Portland which have reached the
public. Whether he will affiliate with
the state central committee, or will
work with his secretary, John c.
Young. in the organization Of Taft
clubs throughout the state, or wheth-
er he will have still different plan
worked out by himself and under his
own management and control is a
matter of supposition.
If is generally believed that state
I Chairman Cake and Senator Bourne
are close together in desire If not In
actual affiliation, but what the re-
cent developments in oregon as be-
tween Fulton and Cake will have to
do with the Bourne-Cak association
[ is n question.
Up at the central committee head
quarters it is given out officially that
there Is no factionalism in the repub-
llcan party at the present time, new
er has been. in fact. and that all re-
publicans are working together for
the election of Taft What effect the
appearance Of Senator Bourne in the
headquarters with his sleeves rolled
m ready for work would have on this
peace and amity, so far as the Fulton
neonle are concerned is a question Of
some doubtfulness.
II is believed. however, that the
senator will give much Of his atten-
tlon to the organization OF Taft clubs
throughout the state and leave the
general work for the state central
committee to do.
John C. Young, private secretary
to Senator Bourne, who has been ap-
pointed state organizer by the Ma
tional League Of Taft clubs, is already
hard at work banding the republican
clubs of the state together under the
general leadership Of the National
league.
senator Bourne will remain In
Oregon until time for the assembling
of congress in December next. While
Il is admitted at his office that he in
tends TO take an active part in the
Taft campaign; in fact. that being his
primary object in returning to Oregon
at this time, 1t is not admitted that
he intends to mix IN the fight over
the organization of the legislature
1t IS contended that the senator has
no direct interest in local issues. tha!
he is not up for reelection and there
fore has no reason to pay attention to
the organization battle.
