OLDSMOBILE STANDA RD 7 H. P. RUNABOUT.

-It is a Runaboo it Built for TouringsIf there is any possible way to improve this new and improved

Oldsmobile Standard Runabout, we don't know it. It representsall we have learned in 20 years about runabout building. It has

power, durability, comfort and beauty.with an Oldsmobile motor

that has no equal.It stands, in our opinion, as the perfect runabout, because it

is built in a way we know an automobile should be to stand harddaily use for the city or country.good roads or bad.

See this car.try it.examine it there isn't the slightestquestion that any one who will be influenced in purchasing a car

by merit, bv superiority point by point over any other, will buy an

Oldsmobile.$650.00, f. o. b. factory. Lamps and horn included.Tlie new flexible springs make It as comfortable as a Touring Car. New

ratchet differential brake; new hub brakes lined with camel's hair belting;now circulating pump; starting rtlief at side of seat; priming cup is addedfor cold weather: p'ston pin is bigger and four piston rings Instead ofthree; automatic oiling system; improved clutches.in fact every little thingstrengthened and improved to make the car "simply perfect."Two of these Runabouts taken right out of stock are now on their way

from New York to Portland. Oregon, having gone over 2.500 miles under fright¬ful road conditions. No argument is necessary to prove the reliability anddurability of these cars.

FRANKLINThe "Economy" Winner

What do you think of a $1,700 car carrying 4 passengers nearly 200miles on !>% gallons of gasoline, less than a gallon of lubricating oil andonly 2»> cents spent for engine adjustments; a total cost of t3,22K, orWWi cents per passenger for the round trip.

That is how the Franklin Car won the trophy of theLong Island Automobile Club in the recent 2 days' "Econ¬omy Tour" from Brooklyn to Southampton, L. I., and re¬

turn.

Plenty of other good cars, with all kinds of rated power, competedIn this contest, but the only one that came near the winning Franklin onthe economy question was another Franklin, which cost % of a centmore per "passenger for the trip.

But please remember that the same qualities which make Franklincars all so uniformly economical of fuel, oil and repairs make them evenmore economical of time, tires and the human anatomy, and give themthe highest touring mileage on American roads and the utmost comfortand safety in proportion to cost of any cars built.

Six young men re¬ceived bachelors' degrees, while many oth¬ers were awarded commercial diplomas andcertificates. The address to the graduateswas delivered by James F. Shea, a memberof the class of '81.Five orations were delivered by merfibers

of the graduating class. Following theoverture. '"Berlin In Joy and Sorrow." bythe Marine Band orchestra, the subject of"Mysteries of Science-' was discussed byWilliam B. Fennell. The comparative in¬completeness of achievement in scientificInvestigation was the gUt of his theme.Daniel A. Ryan spoke upon the subject..The Young Man in Civil Society," an*dwelt upon the Importance of the th:eeM's.morality, manners and manliness. "TheCatholic Church and Civil Liberty" was thetopic of Emanuel A. Chafflot's oration."The Power of the Press" was most ad¬mirably discussed by Dennis E. Connell,who dwelt principally upon the great re¬sponsibility and obligation of furnishinghealthy material to the reading public. Mr.Connell was the honor man of the class,winning the scholarship to the CatholicUniversity. The last oration was deliveredby A. J. Lix, his subject being "Ethics ofOur Modern Business Systems."The orchestra played "African Dream¬

land." and then Mr. Shea began his ad¬dress before the graduating class. He saidit was not lils purpose to fill their mindswith lofty and ambitious Ideas of fame andglory, but rather to make a few sugges¬tions which might be of service In the or¬dinary vocations of life for which the ma¬jority of us are destined and best suited."It is not a matter of position, power or

wealth," he declared, "but simply whatwe are In the sight of God."He warned the students against the popu¬

lar Illusion that they could by chance driftalong with the tide until something de¬veloped which would land them in a placeof fame and fortune. "I would advise you.he said, "to consider carefully and well thevocation in life for which by taste, inclina¬tion, talents and environment you uppearto be best suited. Having once enteredupon an occupation, bring to it thorough¬ness and perseverance of purpose, attentionto detail and a determination to master It.These are the great essentials to success inevery line of human endeavor."

Guilty of Selling Liquor Without

License.General and Per¬sonal Matters.

Special VorrespoDdenee of The Star.ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 17, 1905.

A verdict of guilty was returned at 6o'clock yesterday evening by the jury inthe corporation court in the case of Rich¬ard Burnett, indicted on the charge of sell¬ing liquor without a license, and a fine of£{00 was imposed. To this the court addeda sentence of twelve months in the city jail.Attorneys Lewis H. Machen and R. C. L-Moncure, who represented the defendant,moved to have the verdict set aside as be¬ing contrary to the law and evidence, andalso for a new trial, but these motions wereoverruled by Judge Barley. A stay of exe-cution for thirty days was granted and thecourt announced willingness to accept bondIn the sum of »3,00t>. Burnett's wife, whowas indicted for the same offense, was dis¬missed at the request of Commonwealth At¬torney Brent. The case, which took up theentire .dayls session, attracted much localattention, and a large audience listened tothe testimony and argument throughout theproceedings. During the trial it appearedthat some of the testimony was materiallydifferent from that given before the grandJury. It i3 said that this may give rise tofurther developments. In addressing thecourt Mr. Machen of counsel for the de¬fense stated that nearly every grand Jurywhich met returned an Indictment againsthl3 client for one thing or another, but calledattention to the fact that in nearly everycase Burnett had been acquitted.The prisoner was unable to have his

surety arranged before court adjourned lastnight and he spent the night in the cityJail. This morning he was brought intocourt and the amount of his bond wasguaranteed by his mother and Mr. WilliamRogers.
