Careful Criticism.

DR.. Edwin A. Alderman, the presi-
dent Of the University:of Virginia. tells
this story illustrating the Importance
Of being careful in criticism:
II knew Of certain instructor in
rhetoric who always impressed upon
his students the necessity Of clarity in
what they wrote. A young man
brought on one occasion a very care
fully prepared essay.
"'A good piece Of work. said the in
structor, but, Mr.. Smith. you should
remember to write every sentence so
that the most ignorant person can I'M
derstand every word you put down
The young man looked worried and
asked anxiously:

He seemed to have his own way
with her. She followed him into the
house. and. sitting before the plano. hs
struck several chords.
This won't do" he said snappishlv.
'"The thing can't have been tuned in
years. These people can't expect you
to get on with a tin pan. What's the
agents name?"
Before she could stop him he had
rung up the agent on the telephone. and
she was Mortified to hear him say:

She consented to let the matter resf.
and, sure enough. the next morning
the piano was tuned. Then the first
assistant gardener insisted on the head
gardener spending the morning with
him in the music room.
Finally the grounds were laid out ~,
the new plan. The men the ASSISTANT
had hired kept at work and seemed
satisfied with their pay. How their

STANDARD OIL
CONTRIBUTIONS
Again Subject of Invsstiga-
ton at Washington.
Special By United Press Wire.


Washington, D. c., Oct. 10:-The
Standard Oil in politics was again the
| subject to which the senatorial pro-
bers on the Clapp committee turned
their attention today. John D. Arch
bald, was heard today regarding the
Standards alleged donation of $780,
600. Archibald appeared today in
compliance with his promise of last
August, when he told the committee
he would search his letter files for
the receipts of the 100000 which he
said Bliss gave him.
Chairman Hilles also testified to-
Iday.
Louis Laylin, Of Columbus, o., As
sistant Secretary of the Interior, who
managed the Ohio primary fight for
Taft delegates to Chicago, was the
first witness today. He said between
$65, 900 and $4,000 was contribut-
ed for this purpose, mostly by Charles
P. and Hubert Taft, and Chairman
Hilles.
A. H. Plant, Comptroller of the
Southern railroad, was next called.
He denied making contributions to
Underwood's campaign.
JoHu ~ AI0uUdlu uS8L on IHc
stand was examined regarding the
public letters in Hearsts magazine.
He was asked regarding the letters,
transmitting various sums from
$4,000 to $4,000 to Senator For
aker, of Ohio. He admitted writing
the letters and said that the money
was paid Foraker for his services as
counsel in the Standard Oil-Ohio af-
fairs.
Intimate relations between the
Standard Oil and prominent con-
gressmen were detailed by Archibald,
who identified many of the letters
published In Hearst's magazine, and
admitted relations with former Sem
ators Foraker and Hanna, of Ohio,
and Senator Quay of Pennsylvania,
and former Representative Grosvenor
of Ohio, and Sibley of Pennsylvania
The Standard head admitted paying
$45,500 to Foraker, but insisted it
was attorneys fees. He also admit
ted giving Quay $4,000 and Gros-
venor $1,000, but said both were
campaign contributions. Another let
ter Archibald identified was one from
Sibley, suggesting conference with
prominent senator who would be a
power of strength in the time of
need"

1t appears evident to some police
men, however, that certain saloons
do a Sunday business, but in such
fashion that 1t is almost impossible
to secure convicting evidence. Mr..
Garretson remarked to the news
paper men today that If such was
the case it was a bad feature. He
said the evidence of one detective
was not sufficient, as he had seen
many excise cases thrown out by
the grand jury on that account. He
declared it was imperative that the
testimony of one witness be corrob D
rated by that of another. Under the
circumstances he maintained it was
no easy matter for policemen to OBJ
tain convicting evidence in some
cases.
According to Mr.. Garretson the
grand jury seemed to lay most par
ticular stress upon removal of front
screens and proper exposure of bar
rooms on Sundays In the examina-
ton yesterday. He believes the law
in that respect is duly observed in
this city. At least, the reports of all
police officers on duty Sundays indi-
cate so. The acting mayor says he
has no proof of Sunday selling in
Perth Amboy, for he never inhabits
drinking places. All he sees of them
is the exterior. While standing at
certain corner In the western section
of the city a Sunday recently, he
pointed out drinking place to
Mounted Patrolman Hartmann and
told him there appeared to be
violation, for the curtains were not
drawn and the barroom thus ex-
posed. To his surprise he was In
formed by the officer that the place
was hotel and 1t was not necessary
to expose the barroom there for that
reason. 80 you see how much l
know about those Matters" the eX-
ecutive said during an interview to-
day. From observations made since
that time Mr.. Garretson has not
found any violations Of the screen
law.
The declaration that the lid will
be clamped on tightly throughout
the county on the Sabbath hereafter
seems to have become due to the
fact that some New Brunswick
liquor dealers who observed the Sun
day law complained of rival dealers
doing business, and not because of
any wholesale violations here or in
any other part Of the county. While
the grand jurors did not state the
complaints had eminated from the
county seat town, it became evident
to the mayors questioned there yes
terday that such was the case. 1t
appeared that some New Brunswick
liquor dealers observed every part of
the Sunday closing law, that others
did a Sunday business and that con-
sequently many drinkers threatened
the law-observers with changing
their drinking places and going
where. they could get drink on
Sundays as well as week days.
