Inventor Claims New Power ...Jnyention JThgJg, Marvel H. C. Hornbach Declares His Generator Is Destined to Revolutionize World of Motive Power. jr. ORTIAXD is the birthplace of an alleged self-generating engine, a new Invention, which il invents- C. Hornback. thinks i. j,t;-. revolutionise the world of motive power. The generative power is derived from compressed air through a series of com pressors which operate in unison with a series of weights attached to a drive wheel on a drive-shaft which operates, the pistons of the compressors. The Inventor, who is still in his early Sis, has put 17 years of his) life in solving the problem, which he now claims to have mastered. While engaged in the occupation of a locomotive engineer on a Southern railroad. Hornback gave con siderable study to the Westiughouse air brake. Realizing the practicability of utilizing air as a generative power, he says he proceeded to work out theories on a basis of perpetual motion. luring the past 15 years he has constructed two models while a resident of Colorado. Kach failed to reach the criterion of his Idea, yet failure in this respect only fired his ambition for the accomplishment of hm goal. Two months ago Hornback came to Portland from Colorado, and here, among Grangers, in a strange land, he began trying to transform his theories into phy sical evidences In a small attic room at the La Porte Hotel, on Third street. In the seclusion of the little room the in ventor shaped his ideas. Although he guarded his efforts to attain his goal with the utmost. secrecy, yet his myster ious and almost c-ontinxial habitation of the little room gave rise to speculation on the part of others In the building. After weeks of cautious investigation, they learned the mysterious occupant of the room on the third floor back was constructing a "machine" of some na ture. Soon the news became general nu cvemuiiu? , in 11s passage or thA three crow sta&re. enssirt hnri it that t young inventor had a "perpetual motion machine." Interested persons wended- their way to the little rooms on the' third floor. Few were successrul in crossing the threshold and gaining entrance to the rooms. Those who did, however, were saved from sore disappointment only by the genial per sonality of Hornback. None were per mitted to view the model which he con Btructed in an adjoining room. To several who volunteered to finance the construc t'on of a patentable model. Hornback ex-: plained his theoretical ideas. . A glance t ; aX I H. C. Hornbach, Inventor AVho Hopes to Kevolatlonlze Mottve- Poitfr Methods With His Nen f . Invention. at his specifications and designs deDicterl the simplicity of the construction of the contrivance. Although many bounteous oners were forthcoming from those in terested. the young inventor, despite his- nnanciat incompetency to build an ade quate model for demonstration purposes, was reluctant and as yet has not sought ni nnanciai aid or any. "A dozen men have volunteered to aid me financially," said Horaback yester day, "but for obvious reasons I have de ferred acceptance of their many kind of fers, not because I am avaricious, but because I recall several former expe riences. Yet in view of the fact that I have reached the goal of my life's work. I am duty bound to enlist the . financial aid of some one, not because of the com-mercial--valUe-of-my humble efforts, but, like any one who has had an aim in life and mastered it, I want to give It to the world.".. In a cursory taanner the mechanical genius advanced the principle of his con trivance, yet took the precaution to evade a technical explanation. "I term the fruit of my efforts as an appliance which will revolutionize the world so far as generative power is con cerned. - It will entirely eliminate all use for fuel -which is used for the pur pose today. Air will be used as fuel to supplant the present day commodity. I have evolved a contrivance which, by the aid of a series of air compressors that are virtually driven by their own power and - will run incessantly if required, at no further- expense than is expended) for oil to garnish the friction points. ' In constructing the invention I had per petual motion In mind and resorted to the adoption of weights on a dxivewheel. With the aid of compressed air I have mastered the enigma of passing weights over the "deadline" which has hereofore baffled inventors. The self-generating engine, as it can rightfully be called, can be built to meet any requirements, from a one-half horsepower to 5000 If necessary, and can be relied upon for practicability as long as air exists in the universe. I may accept one of the many offers made to me by persons who have consulted me and agreed to assist me financially in the construction of a demonstrative model. In that event I will have one on display In a Washington street show window by the middle of January." Pope's Brother Carries Mail. ROME, Dec. 4.

CITY BARN SITE SELECTED Mayor Simon , and Committee Kind There Will Be Koom I-eft for Park. After inspecting the ground yesterday afternoon Mayor Simon. Chairman Con nell, of the street cleaning committee of the Executive Board, Water Commis sioners Ainsworth and Mackay and Su perintendent Dodge agreed to a plan for building a city barn and rearranging the property so that a small park may be established, as is greatly desired by the people "of the vicinity of Mllwaufcie and Powell streets. Tlp party went to the scene in the Mayor's automobile. In spite of the howling wind and swirling snow, and soon decided on a course to pursue. The new city barn, which will cost J37.O0O, will face Powell street and will be constructed alongside the engine house. This will leave the small tract back of the barn and facing on Mil waukle street, for the use of a play ground. Apparatus will be installed there early next Summer, as the Park Board has already ordered $5000 worth for this and other small plots, in conformity with the policy of the Mayor, who ,1s determined to have a good many of these throughout the city, as he denis tbem more beneficial than large parks.

A well attended meeting of the tax payers of the Oak Grbve School District was - held' Friday night for the purpose of establishing ' the annual tax levy for school purposes. Much enthusiasm was manifested by .those present over the completeness and excellence of the facili ties furnished by -the new schoolhouse Just erected. It was decided that the ' largely In creased attendance . made it necessary to engage another teacher and occupy all the four rooms in the building. It ,was also voted to purchase additional ground to the extent of four lots, to enlarge the school grounds. The money for this purchase was provided for in the lew of 25 mills which the meeting authorized.,! ELECT SOLONS AT LARGE? Republican Club to Discuss Method of Choosing Legislators.
