"STRAIGHT WHISKY"
LEGALLY DEFINED

One of the most interesting points in
the recent decision, given out for the
guidance of the internal revenue officers,
under the title. What Is Whisky" is
this: That whereas good many prod
understands the word may still be
branded whisky the term straight
whisky" may be used by only those which
are absolutely pure.
Rectif1ed whisky, redistilled whisky and
whisky made from a blend of neutral
spirits and straight whisky are now le-
gally authorized to go under the brand of
"whisky' but these products may not be
branded straight whisky" The distinc-
ton made between whisky and straight
whisky is one that involves the process
of manufacturing.
Straight whisky must be absolutely
pure; it must be aged in chared oak bar
rels for years. This aging gives it the
amber color and smooth, delicate aroma
and makes it extremely palatable without
the use of fiavoring Or coloring.
Most WHISTLES are not aged in wood.
The conventional flavor and color are
given to them by the shorter and cheap
er process of adding burnt sugar and
other essences. These products, under
the official decision, are still entitled to
be branded Whisky; but not straight
Whisky
While the decision leaves the term
whisky open to those who make rectified
and redistilled whisky. it reverses the
term straight whisky for that pure
product, aged in wood. which is gener-.
ally conceded to be the most healthful
and desirable form of whisky.
Large whisky, advertised on another
page, claims to be pure. to be aged for
years in charred oak barrels, to be bot.
tied in bond. 1t is not merely whisky,
therefore, but straight whisky in all
the favorabla significance which that
term now carries.

riety caused by their recent elopement,
Joseph F. Smollen and his bride, who
was Miss Margaret Leavitt. daughter of
G. Rowland Leavitt of New York, a
wealthy banker and railroad man. are
spending their honeymoon quietly in
Washington. Today they were out sight

tend the opera. They are stopping at
the Arlington.
Smollen was a chauffeur in Mr.. Leav-
tits employ. Miss Leavitt fell in love
with him. The natural and not unex-
pected parental objection ensued This
was followed by an elopement. and the
Leavitts have been hunting for their
daughter ever since.
The young couple were married in Jer-
sey City one day last week.
Mrs. Smollen Is worth about a quarter
Of a million in her own name. Smollen

the brides family. but will not be dis
tressed if relations remain strained.
Smollen was at one time chauffeur for
James j. Corbett. the noted prize fighter
actor, lecturer and press agent. His rosy
cheeks and youthful face earned him the

AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA
SMITHS CONFESSION TIL
THEME OF THE HOUR.
Lawler Damage Suit Against Elec-
trio Line on Trial Today.
Mrs. Posey's Funeral.
Special Correspondence Of The Star.

SPECIAL Correspondence OF me StdT
ALEXANDRIA, Va. January 13, 1910.
The second confession of Henry Smith.
the negro indicted for participation in
hhe Schultz murder, is the principal
theme of conversation here today. When
will Smith make another confession?"
is a question which is being asked by
almost every one today. Smith has very
few supporters in Alexandria who would
now believe him on oath. The general
opinion prevails that Smiths second con-
fession is fabrication.
Judge l.. c.. Barley of the corporation
court this morning received telegram
from Gov. Swanson, in which he stated
he had respited Johnson, Pines and Dor
sey until March 16 next.
The opinion now prevails that smith
may be the first to so to the electro
chair In the event it is found that the
other men are innocent they have yet
time to secure their freedom. That Smith
is now endeavoring to befuddle the court
officials and all who have any connection
with the case there seems TO De no
doubt.
In the police court this morning the
cases of James Wilson, Custer Wilson
and William LEVEL, colored. arrested on
suspicion of stealing chickens from the
hennery of Charles Astryke, were con-
tinued until tomorrow. Mr.. Astryke
told the court that he had identified
nine chickens which were dead that
were stolen from his place Tuesday
night last. The men were arrested by
Policemen Garvey and Boland
National Union Elects.
At the annual meeting of the Alex
andria National Union held last night

Thornton presiding. the case of John j.
