A SUCCESS STORY.
By EDWIN AWE.

A SUCCESS STORY.
1t is a long cry from a redskins to-
pee to membership in the United States
senate.
OF the many success" stories now
current this one about Senator Charles
Fl. Curtis is surely worth the reteIiing-
When the civil war broke out Curtis
was year-old Indian papoose tied to
a board and slanted up against the
center pole Of wigwam OF the Kaw
tribe.
His mother was a squaw OF the
Kaws and his father a white man.
The mother died when Curtis was
three years old. The boy lived with
his Grandfather Curtis at Topeka.
Used to the free, open spaces. the In
dian youth was like a Gagged animal.
He played truant at every chance. He
| ran away from his books and began
selling newspapers and shining shoes
| for . livelihood.
Young Curtis was accustomed to loaf
about certain racing stable, where be
came to be jockey. He was daring
| rider and won many races
One day Curtis was the mount OF q
vicious horse that few the track and
threw his rider against high board
| fence. That came near ending the
boys life. 1t ended his racing career.
Afterward he became a hack drive,
and at the same time got an appetite
for an education.
In this respect Curtis was like tina
other brilliant senator, Thurston o.
Nebraska. who got his education Will,
driving an Omaha hack.
Studying law when he was not col
lecting fares, Curtis was admitted t.
the bar when he was only twenty-five
, At twenty-four he was county prose
, cutor.
He went after criminals as the Kaw
used to go after the Cheyennes.
Withal be read everything wortl
while. and he is today an UNUSUAL,
well educated man.
He ran for congress and failed tn
first time. His next campaign was sue
/ cessful, and It's whirlwind character
, | a tradition to this day.
Curtis is strong partisan, but
brilliant man. and has devoted faitt
full efforts toward the betterment Q
his mothers people. The much abuse
and long cheated Indian has an elt
. quent champion in Curtis.

What to Say.

One of the problems of social life
Is to know what to say to one anoth-
er when we meet; every man and
woman's desire is to appear sympa-
thetic and clever, and this makes con-
yersation dificult, because taking US
all round. we are neither sympathetic
nor cleyer.-Jerome K. Jerome.

BY WATER BD.
AT RUNYON

Members OF the Board of Water
Commissioners are satisfied that 1t
will be practicable to lay a six-inch
pipe from the sixteen-inch water
main near the South Amboy city
limits to Morgan station, a distance
of about a mile and an eighth, to
supply the latter place with water
from the Runyon wells.
With Mayor Bollschweiler, City
Engineer Samuel j. Mason and
Superintendent of the Water Depart
ment A. H. Crowellp the Water
Board visited Morgan Saturday af-
ternoon, inspected the site of the
proposed main extension and pro-
nounced it feasible plan. Action
will be taken at the next meeting of
the board on the formal application
for water made by the Morganites
last Wednesday night.
The party first visited the pump
ing station at Rnnyon and viewed
the work executed to date on the
addition to the pump house, which is
to shelter the new 100000 Wis
consin pump when 1t is finished and
shipped here. A general inspection
of the entire plant followed. From
Runyon the party went to Morgan.

CHANCE TO SEE
AEROPLANE IN
THIS VICINITY
C. K. Hamilton to Fly From
New York to Philadelphia
and Back.
WILL FOLLOW MAIN LINE
PENNSYLVANIA r. R.

Anyone In this vicinity desiring to
see an aeroplane in full flight can
have that desire gratified next Satur-
day If they will take the trouble to
go to Metuchen, New Brunswick,
Railway or any other point along
the main line of the Pennsylvania
railroad. This, Of course, is provid
ing the weather is suitable for flying
and the aeroplane does not break
down before this section of the
state is reached.
The New York Times and the
Philadelphia Public Ledger have ar
ranged with Charles X. Hamilton,
the aeroplanist, whose feats of avia-
ton on Hampstead Plains in the last
few days have excelled anything pre-
viously done on a limited field, to
make a fight from New York to
Philadelphia and back again.
Mr. Hamilton's present plan is to
make the start from Van Cortlandt
Park about 7ro'clock in the morning
or later. He will, under this ar
rangement, fly out over the Hudson
and down the river to the Pennsyl-
yania railroad station in Jersey City.
low the tracks of the Pennsylvania
railroad through Newark, Elizabeth,
Railway, New Brunswick, Trenton
and Bristol.
Mr. Hamilton hopes to make the
trip to Philadelphia without alight-
ing until he reaches the end of the
journey. In Philadelphia he will
alight in the stretch of fields at the
Westmore station of the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad or at some equally con-
yenient spot, to be determined today
by Mr.. Hamilton, who is making a
trip of inspection over the route of
his proposed fight.
| Mr.. Hamilton will undertake to
return from Philadelphia to New
York on the same day, alighting at
| his. starting point in Van Cortlandt
park.
The distance comprised in the pro-
posed fight will be about 100 miles
each way, 200 miles in all, and it
will be the greatest cross-eountry
flight yet achieved. surprising In
distance the flight of Curtiss from
Albany to New York week ago
Sunday, and the recent fight of Il.
Paulhan from London to Manches-
ter Mr.. Hamilton considers his mo-
tor capable of developing fifty-eight
miles an hour, and he expects to be
in the air not much more than four
hours for the entire journey.
1t is proposed to have a special
train run over the route preceding
the aeroplane, as a pilot. All the
towns along the route are prepar-
ing to give the aviator great well
come as he passes over. The early
hour for starting will necessitate
some hustling to see the fight
southwark. That is, provided the
start is made on time, but the re-
turn trip may not be made until af-
ternoon. At any rate, some time
during Saturday the aeroplane will
probably pass over Metuchen, and it
is probable that hundreds of people
will gather to see it.
