SUCCESS AT HUNTING.

The many friends of Edward
Kunge, of Yonkers, are glad to hear
of his great success on his recent
hunting trip in the Adirondacks,
where he spent the past two weeks.
While there he shot two deer, each
weighing over 200 pounds, one of
which he had sent to his home, which
he divided among his friends.
The other was dressed and sent
home by express as the law allows
only one to be taken out of the coun-
ty.
He was a week tracking the deer
He had with him the famous guide
Washington of those mountains, who
had to carry the deer three and one
half miles before finding assistance.
He is going to have the head ana
antlers mounted and keep them as
souvenirs of the trip.

TIMBER FELL ON HIM
Walter johnson Had Ankle Sprained
at Shipyard Yesterday.

Walter Johnson, of %Bordentown,
who has been a lifelong employee of
the P.9 r. r. company in the ship
building business, met with a serious
accident while at work in the COM
pany's Sshipyard at South Amboy yes
terday. He was unable to give a very
lucid account of how the accident
happened. About all he could say in
reference to the matter was that a
heavy stick of oak timber fell on his
ankle, bruising and spraining the
same in such a manner that he is un-
able to walk except by using crutch-
es. DR.. Haines attended to the treat
ment of the injured limb, for from
appearances it will be several weeks
before he will be able to use 1t.

SOME OTHER
NUISANC ES.
Reference to The Old Trouble
About David Street Crossing
Reminds About the Station.

1t was noticeable in the reports of
the last council meeting when the
matter was discussed relating to i'm
provements at the lower end of David
street, reference was made to the sad
experience of the borough in come
ton with the New York & Long
Branch railroad. 1t was a sad eXper-
fence when a corporation can keep a
street closed for so long a time
against the wishes and in direct OPP
position to the authorities of the
town through which it runs, and it is
a sadder experience to realize that a
corporation receiving the patronage
this road does from the borough of
South Amboy and the officers of this
railroad so Indifferent as to the well
,fare OF. its patrons.
In the first instance they permit a
building to stan dand be used by the
people that is termed a depot. In
one part of this is a sign For Lad
ies," when it is hardly fit for a pig
sty. And agian they have their
freight trains blocking from one to
three streets at one time anywhere
from ten to twenty minutes. How
long the people of South Amboy must
endure this imposition or how long
will the authorities of our borough
(although they cannot compel this
corporation to build a decent waiting
ROOM permit u streets to be block
ed and other illegal nuisances to be
perpetrated by the railroad company
without even entering a protest to
those in power in the interest of the
citizens of our borough? The people
ought to have some rights in the
town in which they live.
