A Beautiful Gift

H. G. Van Dusen, for seven years
master fish warden of the state, has
been presented a beautiful gold
watch by the gentlemen who were
most closely associated with him
during his long incumbency in that
important Office. The watch is
really an exceptionally handsome and
valuable one, and probably there is
no gift that Mr.. Van Dusen would
appreciate more highly. The presen-
tation of the watch was made by Ole
]. Settem, of Astoria, state water
bailiff, and it came as complete
surprise to the recipient. During his
incumbency in the Office Mr.. Van
Dusen made many warm friends, and
that his efforts to better the fish in
dustry were appreciated by the men
who best understand such matters,
may be seen by glance at the fol
lowing list, comprising the men who
made the gift of the watch to Mr..
Van Dusen: Frank G. Brown, deputy
fish warden, Sellwood; John D. Viii
son, deputy fish warden, Yoncalla;
Ole ]. Settem, state water bailiff, As

day Orv!lle Wright made the two great
est aeropiane flights ever made publicly
in this country when he remained in the
air for over II minutes on his first flight
and for nearly eight minutes on his sec
ond. There was apparently no reason
why the flights could not have been OF
even greater duration ms the aviator
landed the second time because Of the
approa aching darkness. Throughout boil
flights Mr., Wright apparently had the
machine under perfect contro, rising at
times to Go feet and making sharp turns
1t was n few minutes before six o'clock
when Mr. Wright signalled his assistant
to release the machine It shot along the
track and rose almost Immediately after
leaving II. sweeping to earth like q giant
eagle the machine was brought down
by Mr.. Wright within 30 feet Of the
starting apparatus after having made
10 complete circles OF the field In eleven
minutes and ten seconds.
Twenty minutes after the first trial
Mr.. Wright started up for the second
attempt. After eight circles OF the field.
Mr.. Wright brought his machine down
within few feet Of the aerial garage. -
1t was estimated that Mr.. Wright
covered six and one-half miles In the
first night at an average speed OF thirty
six miles an hour and on the second
flight four and one-quarter miles.
