CIRTISS TRIP SUCCESSFUL.
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Kansas City, Mo., "Sept.' 1 The
strain of his long western trip has
worn severely upon the athletic con
stitution of Theodore Roosevelt and
as the result of an appeal from the
''ex-president, provisions were today
made to give him as much rest as pos
sible while in this city.
Though Colonel Roosevelt is a vet
eran campaigner and came back from
Africa in the best of 'Health, the con
tinuous performance of one night
stands and. Ynuny speeciies is weary
mg him. His voice, which was weak
ened by the efforts of his speeches in
Europe, has again been affected with
the snrieks ot engine whistles and
western cheers, forcing liini to shout
to make himself heard.
Though a program had been ar
ranged to occupy every moment of
the ex-president's time during his
stay of ten hours here, beginning
with his arrival at 12:15 p. m., It
was decided to cut out events wiiere-
ever possible to do so.
The 1 ,000 students of the Westport
High School were the happiest per
sons in Kansas City today, for with
mo ex-president s , request for a
chance to rest while here, there came
also the statement that he desired to
address the boys and girls at that
school, as had been originally
planned.
It was practically decided to aban
don the automobile tour of the boule
vards as a result of the school vic
tory.
That some other part of the pro
gram owuld have to go by the boards
was the word that came that Roose
velt desired to visit the county fair
at Independence, Mo., ten miles from
here. The message came from Law
rence, Kas., where the ex-president
spent the night.
Col. Roosevelt was worn out by
his strenuous day at Ossawatomie
and seized the opportunity to get a
good night's rest. The-special train
carrying the ex-president and his
party left, Lawrence after breakfast
this morning for Argentine, Kas., on
the way to this city. Arrangements
had been made at Argentine for the

Smashed Records Flying Over Water
From Cleveland to Cedar Point.
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Cedar Point, O., Sept. 1 "I smash
ed records coming, and I'll smash 'em
going," was the promise given thi3
morning by Glenn H. Curtiss, who
yesterday made tho longest flight
ever made entirely over water, and
broke a Bpoed record by covering
70 miles from Cleveland in 78 min
utes, . '
Though the actual distance be
tween Cedar Point, on Sandusky Bay,
and Euclid Beach, just out of Clove
land, the other terminus, is sixty
miles, the contours of the lake shore
added seven miles to the course.
By yesterday's performance, Cur-
tlss earned $5,000 besides the $5,000
given hi mfor the entire flight, that
amount having been hung up, for a
speed record. :-. ; j :"'-''-
I may, if conditions are favor
able, try .to win the other $5,000 to
day, for altitude," said Curtiss this
morning.
The aviator this morning over
hauled and tested his machine the
same that He used in the flight from
Albany to New York, down the Hud
son Valley, which marked an epoch
in American aviation. Of his own
construction, the biplane has an eight
cylinder engine giving 50 horse
power. '.';'.
In the first leg of the flight, Amer
ica captured supremacy from Eng
land for the all over-water flight.
the best previous record being that
made by Robert Loralne, the actor,
who covered 60 miles from Blackpool
on August 8.
Curtiss, in the three-years he has
been flying, has established seven
other world's records, and perform
ed many daring feats. Before he
turned bird man, be made a world's
speed record for a motor cycle, doing
a mile in 26 2-5 seconds at Ormond
