OLDSMOBILE STANDA RD 7 H. P. RUNABOUT. -It is a Run a boo it Built for Tourings If there is any possible way to improve this new and improved Oldsmobile Standard Runabout, we don't know it. It represents all 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 hard daily use for the city or country.good roads or bad. See this car.try it.examine it there isn't the slightest question 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.

FRANKLIN The "Economy" Winner What do you think of a $1,700 car carrying 4 passengers nearly 200 miles on !>% gallons of gasoline, less than a gallon of lubricating oil and only 2»> cents spent for engine adjustments; a total cost of t3,22K, or WWi cents per passenger for the round trip. That is how the Franklin Car won the trophy of the Long 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, competed In this contest, but the only one that came near the winning Franklin on the economy question was another Franklin, which cost % of a cent more per "passenger for the trip. But please remember that the same qualities which make Franklin cars all so uniformly economical of fuel, oil and repairs make them even more economical of time, tires and the human anatomy, and give them the highest touring mileage on American roads and the utmost comfort and safety in proportion to cost of any cars built.

Address by Kr. Jamas P. Shea 1 of 1881 Class. St. John's College held Its thirty-ninth an¬ nual commencement last evening at the La¬ fayette Theater before an audience which filled the playhouse. Six young men re¬ ceived bachelors' degrees, while many oth¬ ers were awarded commercial diplomas and certificates. The address to the graduates was delivered by James F. Shea, a member of the class of '81. Five orations were delivered by merfibers of the graduating class. Following the overture. '"Berlin In Joy and Sorrow." by the Marine Band orchestra, the subject of "Mysteries of Science-' was discussed by William B. Fennell. The comparative in¬ completeness of achievement in scientific Investigation 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:ee M's.morality, manners and manliness. "The Catholic Church and Civil Liberty" was the topic 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 furnishing healthy material to the reading public. Mr. Connell was the honor man of the class, winning the scholarship to the Catholic University. The last oration was delivered by A. J. Lix, his subject being "Ethics of Our Modern Business Systems." The orchestra played "African Dream¬ land." and then Mr. Shea began his ad¬ dress before the graduating class. He said it was not lils purpose to fill their minds with lofty and ambitious Ideas of fame and glory, 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 what we are In the sight of God." He warned the students against the popu¬ lar Illusion that they could by chance drift along with the tide until something de¬ veloped which would land them in a place of fame and fortune. "I would advise you. he said, "to consider carefully and well the vocation in life for which by taste, inclina¬ tion, talents and environment you uppear to be best suited. Having once entered upon an occupation, bring to it thorough¬ ness and perseverance of purpose, attention to detail and a determination to master It. These are the great essentials to success in every line of human endeavor." Degrees and Certificates. Following Mr. Shea's address, Rev. A. P. Doyle, C. S. P.. rector of the apostolic mis¬ sion house, conferred the degrees and awarded the certificates.

Prof. Walter Hough, assistant curator of anthropology of the Smithsonian Insti¬ tution, has started for Clifton, Ariz., to head a party for exploring the caves and ancient pueblos In the Gila and Black Mesa forest reserves In New Mexico and Arizona. The expedition Is known as the Museum- Gates, being under the joint auspices of the United States National Museum and Mr. P. G. Gates of Pasadena, Cat. Mr. Gates Is much Interested in archaeological research In the pueblo region of New Mexico and Arizona, and In 1001 co-oper¬ ated with thV museum In preliminary In¬ vestigations In the territory which will now be, for the first time, carefully and thoroughly explored. These preliminary investigations were conducted by Prof. Hough, who Is regarded as the highest liv¬ ing authority oil the prehistoric pueblo dwellers. On the present occasion Mr. Gates himself accompanies the expedition. After exploring the pueblo remains in the forest reserve regions mentioned, the party will proceed north across the Datll mountains and over the waterless region Indicating a great lava overflow, to the Inhabited Pueblo of Nunl. which will be carefully studied, as It Is the most perfect of the remains of the great stone com¬ munal dwelling houses or villages of the Pueblo Indians. The party Is not expected to complete Its labors until late In the fall. LINE V ITCH SURROUNDED. Reported Japanese Have Him Encircled by Troops. The Tokyo correspondent of the London Telegraph declares that he has learned from a first rate source that Gen. Llnevltch, with his entire army, Is completely envel¬ oped. The Japanese army has made a cir¬ cle a hundred miles in circumference around him, and Is gradually drawing closer, moving with even a greater de¬ gree of mobility than It did at Mukden. The Russian commander, the correspond¬ ent adds, will lose in what probably will be the greatest battle of the war. The Rus¬ sians have accumulated Immense stores at Guntsullng, which forms a center whence troops are dispatched In all directions. Many light railways are being constructed northward to fad!Hats a Russian retreat. K seems that Gen. Linsvttch. who Is be¬ wildered bjr Japanese strategy, has a the¬ ory that Gen.

ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS KICHAKD BURNETT TOTED IN . OOBPORATION 001JBT. 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 6 o'clock yesterday evening by the jury in the 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 added a 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, and also for a new trial, but these motions were overruled by Judge Barley. A stay of exe- cution for thirty days was granted and the court announced willingness to accept bond In the sum of »3,00t>. Burnett's wife, who was indicted for the same offense, was dis¬ missed at the request of Commonwealth At¬ torney Brent. The case, which took up the entire .dayls session, attracted much local attention, and a large audience listened to the testimony and argument throughout the proceedings. During the trial it appeared that some of the testimony was materially different from that given before the grand Jury. It i3 said that this may give rise to further developments. In addressing the court Mr. Machen of counsel for the de¬ fense stated that nearly every grand Jury which met returned an Indictment against hl3 client for one thing or another, but called attention to the fact that in nearly every case Burnett had been acquitted. The prisoner was unable to have his surety arranged before court adjourned last night and he spent the night in the city Jail. This morning he was brought into court and the amount of his bond was guaranteed by his mother and Mr. William Rogers. Ministerial Appointments.

Spirited racket work combined with stead¬ iness won for Miss Elizabeth H. Moore the title of metropolitan woman champion In the lawn tennis singles yesterday on the dirt courts of the West Side Lawn Tennis Club, 117th street and Amsterdam avenue. New York. The ex-national champion was forced to display her best game, as her opponent was Miss Helen Homans, the young sister of the famous Princeton foot¬ ball player, "Shep" Homans, and the latter wielded her racket so skillfully that she was three times within a point of taking the match and title. Miss Moore's drives down the side lines for passes at those critical junctures saved her from defeat, and she won by the score of 3-0, ft-3. 7-5. The continuance »of play in the men's championship doubles brought out some of the fastest law* tennis witnessed on the courts this season. The most remarkable match of the day was that in which the Yale-Princeton combination, Harold H. Hackett and Frederick B. Alexander, de¬ feated Theodore Roosevelt Pell and Clar¬ ence Hobart two love sets. GRAVESEND RACES. Hamburg Belle Won Coney Island Handicap In Fast Time. Splendid racing prevailed at Sheepshead Bay yesterday afternoon, where 12,000 men and women enjoyed another healthful out¬ ing at this magnificent race track. Follow¬ ing the triumph of Beldame In the Subur¬ ban. another great mare, Hamburg Belle, scored a brilliant victory In the Coney Island Handicap at six furlongs. She picked up 124 pounds and. conceding weight to all of her rivals, she made the running and then won In a hard drive by a length and a half In the fast time of 1.12 3-5, one- fifth of a second behind the track record. The Belle was always the favorite at 2 to 1 and gave six pounds to Roseben, 4 to 1, who. under the whip, got the place from James R. Keene's Wild Mint, a 15 to 1 shot. Race King was only a head back with Sparkling Star at his throat latch, all of which showed some clever work on the part of Handicapper Vosburgh. Mr. Vosburgh's figures in the last race, a handicap at a mile and a sixteenth on the grass, were also productive of a remark¬ ably close finish, the closest In fact that has been seen on a local track in years. There were Ave starters and four of them passed the judges so compactly bunched that It looked like a dead heat Cor at least three of them. Wotan, 6 to 1. and Dande¬ lion, 2 to 1, went off in front at a terrific pace, running neck and neck right into the middle of the stretch. Then Lyne got Outcome, the favorite, through on the rail, while Kehallan, 3 to 1, rushed up on the outside. AH the Jockeys were whipping and the horses were extended to the limit. The judges gave the race to Outcome by a whisker, with Wotan a nostril in front of Dandelion, who beat Kehallan a head. The race was run in 1.47. Senator McCarren's Voorhees, 3 to 0 favorite, hung up a new track record of 1:00 In the Daisy stakes for two-year-olds, live furlongs on the grass. He led ull the way and finish a length and a half in front of Belle of Pequest, 5 to 1, to,whom he gfive seven pounds. R. T. Wilson's Jr.'s N'ostromo, 5 to 1, was a poor third. II. P. Whitney scratched Queen of Hearts, the full sister of artful, in the lirsl race, for maiden two-year-old fillies at Ave fur¬ longs, Futurity course, and depended upon Brookdale Nymph, by Meddler. Caitalia, who went up to 3 to X and then male the bulk of the pace, winning easily by three lengths In 1:01. E. E. Bmathers' Society Bud. 7 to 1, lost the place in-the last rtrlde to Fatlnitsa. 12 to 1, by a head. John E. Madden's Single Life, by Ogden.Blissful, backed down to 9 to 2, was never In the hunt, while Pierre LorUlar'J's Nil, well played at fours, was outrun from the start. Frank Farrell's Champlain, the favor¬ ite In the second race at nine furlongs, was pinched* off at the start and lost so much ground that he was never able to se¬ cure better than third money. Pronta, S to L on the other hand, showed a startling form reversal by making a fast race and winning easily by two lengths in 1:53. Is- mallan, 10 toL always second .was six lengths before Champlain. Lyne. by sheer carelessness, threw away the fifth race, six aad a half furlongs, on Tony Aste's Druid. 4 to L Chieftain, car¬ rying H. B. Duryea's colors, was a reel¬ ing favorite, and after showing the way race by a head In 1:20. Klame«ha, C to 1. closed strongly and was a good third. Three favorites got the money. International Chess Tourney. In the fourth round of the international chess masters' tournament, contested in Ostend, Belgium, yesterday, Leonhardt again won, Telchmann being his victim, and thus kept his lead of one point over Tarrasch.

Cleveland again today; game called at 4 m Patten will probably pitch for the locals. The Clrvelands are going bo well that they make the Nationals look very weak. Just about the time the spectators get sore at Jones for not hitting he turns about and leads the team with the stick. Manager Stahl turned the team over to Hill when he went away, with the under¬ standing that he was to have supreme com¬ mand. Pitcher Jacobsen la getting along nicely, but It will be some time before the clever twirier gets back In harness. He had come to be one of the mainstays of the team. With only four pitchers on the Nationals' staff, the twlrlers will have plenty to do from this on. The work will certainly In¬ crease Townsend's efficiency, but Patten needs a rest. Hunter's hit to left In the first was a "hard-lucker" If there was one. Jackson made a beautiful catch of it. That liner of Turner's was a smash for fair. Huelsman hardly stirred. Cleveland has about the best throwing team in the league. All the boys have good wings. When Lajole fouled out in the fourth the bleachers guyed him hard. So much for a reputation. Stovall ingratiated himself in the hearts of the fans by dropping Turner's throw of Huelsman's easy chance. It was only a hope soon blasted. The bleacherltes are going back upon the old custom of standing in the seventh. Re¬ cently that Inning has been disappointing for the Nationals. It looked like old times to see a man on second, and when Nlel got to third some fan said: "Now we are going some!" Hill made a dive for Flick at the plate In the eighth just as the latter started to slide. Hunter went faster and put him out. Sunday School League Notes. Lord does not get as many safe hits as some, but they usually come where they count. Charlie King Is not up to form this year In his work at first. Two hands instead of one might help a bit, Charlie. Kraft and Graves are not as strong as some mask artists, but they are always on the alert, and hold their own against the bett In the league. Stecker Is picking up In his batting, which will add one more to Congregatlonals' bunch of hitters. The "sluggers" are making a great record with the stick. Lay was out again in uniform in Gunton's last game, but played a part on the bench, as he Is not yet quite fit to get In the game. The fans and players were glad to see the game second baseman who played three Innings with a broken arm, and gave him a glad hand. Any sort of a runner could have com¬ pleted the circuit on "Bally's" rap to right Friday, but Congregatlonals' husky first baseman Is not only handicapped by an abundance of avoirdupois, but also with a damaged kicker, and he loafed too long 'tween first and second, and then got nip¬ ped at. third. "Happy Hooligan" has not deserted the Sunday School League, as stated by a con¬ temporary. He never was a league mascot, but has surrendered all his hunch and luck to Capt. Langley of Gunton, who has the only call on the darksome chestlness, and "Happy" has earned his butter, eggs and Ice cream, for Gunton has not lost since he cast his dusky personage into the Mount Pleasant arena. "It Is to laugh" at the luxurious fans who prefer to miss a few innings In order to view the remainder of the game with an after-dinner cigar and a well-satisfied Inner man. In that flfty-elght-mlnute game they wandered over leisurely only to find the game over, and the thirty-third degree fans had It on thsm. Johnny Beall. still leads In batting, with an average close to .500, followed closely by Jones of Fourth, who has come up fast and now stands second, while Vic. Blelaski, his team mate, has dropped from second to fourth plaoe. The 0t. Stephen's team Is like the Na¬ tionals. Tor a few days they held the lead and then hit the toboggan.

There was no encore for a repetition of a section B game on the hill.not so one could notice It.after that demonstration by Mount Vernon of where to throw the ball where It will do the least good. No more combination foot ball, base ball, vau¬ deville. for the section A fans. Asqulth Is still the best third baseman in the league in throwing to first and cov¬ ering ground, but Vaughan and O'Connor are close seconds, and Chittenden is most valuable to a team on account of his bat¬ ting. ginger and.he Is always there. The St. Stephen's team has the prettiest uniform In the league, which. Including shoes, was without cost to the manager, fin admirer "standing for" the entire cost. Their friends have also contributed a hand¬ some watch for the best batsman, a neat fob for the best twirler, a monogram ring for the best outfielder, an artistic scarf pin for the best lnflelder. and other prizes. Although Gunton has taken a brace, the race seems to be between the Fourth Con¬ gregational and Calvary teams. The Fourth has the pitchers. Congregational the hit¬ ters. and Calvary the team work. Should anything happen to Sheckeila, Congrega- tlonal's chances would be slim, as Koh- ler's arm Is not right yet, but barring that, their chances look best, a* they not only hit often, but hard. That slugger quintet. Beall, Chittenden, Sebastian, Ballenger and Pomeroy.Is enough to keep the best sphere benders guessing. There have been fewer protests and less wrangling this season than In any previ¬ ous year, and the league was never more prosperous and popular than now. Hats oft to President Prevost and the management. There may have been inellglbles playing that memorable first year, but the league Is strictly amateur at the present time.
