MANY TAKE FIRST
TRENTON TROLLEY
More Than Score Make Three.
Hour Journey to Capital
City Today.

The first regularly scheduled trip
on the new high-speed electric rail-
road between this city and Trenton
was made today at 6 o'clock from the
Lackawanna railroad station, the
northern terminal of the road.
The opening trip was an auspicious
one. From the time the conductor
pulled the starting bell until the car
reached the southern terminal at
Trenton Junction there was practical
ly capacity load aboard.
Half of these people were curiosity
seekers who wanted the distinction
of saying they rode on the first regu-
larly scheduled trip. More than a
score of passengers, however, went
over the entire route from this city
to Trenton.
The first trip was not made In as
good time as is expected for the regu-
lar trips because of the numerous
stops for short-ride passengers. The
first car which left the Lackawanna
at o'clock arrived In Trenton shortly
before Q o'clock. The return to this
city, however, was made in five min
utes under the schedule time.
The formal opening ceremonies of
the railroad were held yesterday
under the arch on Broad street, Eliza
beth. Mayor Victor Mravlag, of
Elizabeth, made short address be-
fore the members of the South Eliza
beth Improvement Association. tell
ing of the advantages the short line
offered to residents of the cities along
its route.
Miss Gertrude Calhoun, daughter
of Rowland F. Calhoun. president of
the Improvement Association, then
started the first car to make an off,
cial trip over the entire route. In the
car were representatives of the Pub
lie Service Railway and Railroad
Companies and various business men
from the cities along the route of the
railroad.
The car left Elizabeth shortly after

USE KITES TO TOW CANOES
AT LAKE HOPATCONG
Especial to the Newark start

LAKE HOPATCONG, N. j., July l..
Sailing canoes with kites is a new
innovation in sport here. Several
canoes have been towed by kites
from Point Pleasant to Landing. The
sport requires great amount of skill.
as the wind is not always blowing in
the direction in which the canoe
wishes to travel, in which case the
canoe must tack much after the man
ner of sailboat.
Considerable speed can be obtained
in brisk breeze by the use of a kite
of small dimensions. The kites in use
here have planes of but two or three
feet In width. The new sport is
termed kite-canoeing. and 1t is prob
able that several kite-canoeing races
will be arranged during the season.

tors to cell in the hopes of auieting
his lamentations.
Mrs. Bernstein was seated in chair
in the corner of the room, silently
weeping as only a mother could over
the death of her little son. No sooner
had her husband been removed than
the doctors noticed her make spring
towards the bed where the child's
body lay. All at once she started to
grasp the bed clothes in her hand
and wrung them so tightly that this
doctors seized her to prevent her from
doing any damage to her person. She
too, was removed to a cell in the in
sane ward.
When their crying and meanings
became somewhat quieted the tive
parents were sent to their home in
the ambulance, under the care of DR..
Joelson and two internes. There they
seemed to be entirely unconscious OF
their presence in their own home and
of each other, both continually NUT
tering about the joys their little son
had shed around their home. Physi-
clans think their cases very serious
and left them under the watchful
eyes and care of relations.

Pittsburg, Washington, the Metropoli-
tan Museum of Art New York;, the
Brooklyn Museum of Arts and Sci
ences, and elsewhere. He has won
many medals, both at home and
abroad. The coast of Maine has furn-
ished him with material, particularly
the Island of Monhegan, just off
Boothbay Harbor, where many of his
most important pictures, have been
painted. He has also worked along the
Cornish coast in England, at the paint
ers' colony at Saint Ives, and is a
member of many art organizations, as
we'll as of the National Institute of

Tall and broad shouldered, Dough-
erty has enormous physical activity
and energy, and is constant worker.
In New York he occupies large stu
dio apartment in one of the coopera-
tive buildings, where he has wealth
of artistic things he has picked up all
over the world. He is constant at
tendant at the many musical happen
ings that take place in the metropolis.
His wife is talented performer. His
studio is gathering place for musi-
clans on Sunday afternoons. There
throughout the winter may be found
many persons we'll known in the must
cal and artistic world. At the first

off for the sea, not to return until
driven in by the winters cold, and he
always comes back with mass of ma
terial for subsequent pictures.

Winslow Homer, one of the most
original of the American painters of
the sea, was also striking character,
genius in his way. Even though he
had a great success during his life, his
pictures today have increased enor-
mously in value. He was born in Bos-
ton, in 1886, and, disclosing a strong
artistic bent, was apprenticed to a
photographer at an early age. When
he was twenty-four he went to New
York and entered the schools of the
National Academy of Design. He did
not work long there, however; for he
had living to make, and when the
Civil war broke out he went to the
front as correspondent for Harper's
Weekly. Though he sent back much
matter, he also filled his sketch Books
with material for subsequent draw
ings, and one of these, Prisoners from
. the Front created sensation when
it was shown at the Academy exhibit
ton. 1t represented lot of Confed-
crate prisoners, old men and young
boys, clad in rags. It was pathetic
incident.
At first Homer's success was scant.
He was abroad, spending sometime on
the Cornish coast, where he was at
tracted by the sea, painting the fisher
people with the ocean as back
ground On his return to New York
he took q studio; though he spent
sometime in the Adirondacks every
summer fishing and hunting, for he
was a great lover of sport. Always,
however, he made water color sketches
of these scenes in his odd moments;
but he found difficulty in selling them.

Finally, in despair, he took port
folio of them to the shop of Richards,
a dealer on Fifth avenue, and offered
them to him for a song So greatly
impressed was the merchant that he
declined to take them at such absurd
prices; but on the contrary, having
the greatest confidence in their ulti-
mate selling quality, begged Homer to
consider him as his banker and to
draw on him at will 1t was an ar
rangement mutually satisfactory and
profitable, and continued until Rich
ards retired from active business.
Homer's only trouble after this was
to keep up with the demand; for he
was bachelor, his wants were few
for gain. working only at the things
which interested him. He had stu
dia at Prouts Neck, in Maine, who're
he lived most of the year and was very
friendly with the natives, but most
suspicious Of city folks who came to
inspect his studio. These, it may be
added, never got farther than the front
porch. If they proclaimed themselves
would-be purchasers, he CURLY re-
ferred them to his dealers. Even his
brother artists he declined to see, save
with rare exceptions.
No matter what he was doing, when
a storm came up he would rush in for
his Oilskins and go out to make
sketches of dramatic sky and turbul-
ent waters. There he was in his ele-
ment. No painter has given the water
more of sense of power and profun-
dity, or has studied the sea with
greater understanding. His death in
1910 was great loss to American art.
