Hits the Mark. -
OF late years there has grown up in
Cleveland an impression that Neighbor
Rockefeller, despite his pathetically sc.
rious cast Of countenance. possesses
good deal Of dry humor. In support
of this people cite the answer he made
on the witness stand at Standard Oh
hearing. The attorney for the govern
ment had asked him IL it were true
that the Standard controlled the oil
supply Of the entire world, to which
query Rockefeller replied. mot yet"
In the same connection one may re.
call the remark that he made to a
friend who found him playing golf
one day all alone and asked him IL he
wouldn't prefer to have an opponent
to make the game more interesting.
With a twinkle Of his eyes the oil
dealer answered. mo; never could
stand the idea of competition"
There Is evidence that Rockefeller
had a sense of humor as early as the
seventies. In those days he had not
yet become inaccessible, and, although
he was careful not to let any visitor
about the Standard offices find out
anything concerning bis business, he
was not much more difficult to reach
than the proprietor Of harness shop.
One morning there entered the Rookie.
teller private office large, querulous
1rishman, a contractor, who had had
some business dealings with Rookie
feller's oil company and was nurturing
a. grievance. The visitor briefly set
forth this grievance and then opened
up with stream Of vituperative pro-
family aimed at Rockefeller personally.
Through 1t all Rockefeller sat as il
preoccupied, staring at a little spot
on hts left thumb nail. When the Wis.
ttor had quite finished his TRADE the
oil rehner turned to him as Ii he had

tcably adjusted.
Then there Il the remark he once
made to q waiter in a Cleveland hotel.

tel included roast beef and potatoes

a:ten cant tip. but in view Of the extra
charge for potatoes he laid out only

BOOST PRICE OF GASOLINE
TO CONSUMERS IN THIS CITY

The high cost of living has
nothing on the high cost of luxury,
according to motorists since the
price of gasoline has risen to four
teen cents, jump Of two cents dur
ing the past three months, and
promises to continue skyward in cost
to the consumer during the coming
months Standard gasoline was to-
day quoted generally about the city
at fourteen cents a gallon, while
Texas gasoline was quoted at twelve
cents. .s. -.
Only last fall the motorists were
filled with glee at the slump in the
price of gas from sixteen cents per
gallon in the spring to ten to twelve
cents per gallon. Texas gas was
selling at ten cents then, and Stan
dard at eleven and twelve cents. The
wholesale prices of both gasolines,
however, have been raised, and the
garages have boosted their prices
accordingly. Despite the competition
presented by the establishment here
of oil tanks by the Texas Oil Com
pany during the last two months, the
wholesale prices of both brands have
been boosted instead of cut. 1t is
likely the price of gas to the con-
sumer will reach sixteen cents gal
Ion before the end of the year.

TO CONSIDER BONDS
FOR WATERSHEDS
State Water Supply to Take
Up Proposition at Meeting
in East Orange.

The State Water Supply Commits
sion, of which DR.. William e. Ram
say, of this city, is a member, will
meet at East Orange tonight and will
consider plans for bringing before
the people of the state the necessity
of state bond issue for the pur-
chase and development of water
sheds. At the general election this
fall the voters will pass on the prop
osition whether the state shall issue
$4,000 900 in bonds for the purchase
and development of watershed in
Burlington, Camden and Atlantic
counties. The constitution prohibits
the state from issuing bonds in ex-
cess of 100000 without the in
dorsement of a referendum vote by
the people.
DR.. Ramsay believes that the state
should In this way aid the munich
palities to gain adequate and hy-
gienic watersheds, as he declares
that it will not actually cost the state
cent. because each municipality
using the water from such watershed
purchased and developed by the
state, would pay certain pro rata
amount into the sinking fund to take
care of the bonds when they ma
ture. He declared the state would
actually be only underwriting the
bonds and aiding the municipalities
to undertake a proposition which
they find it unfeasible to do them
selves.

ment of general tax matters and to
increase the usefulness of the boards.

was formerly secretary of the old

ran William M. Macksey, of the Es-
sex County Board, was made secre-
tary.
The discussion yesterday after
noon was directed mainly at the
question of equalization assessments
as between taxing districts within
the counties, and as between the
counties themselves. 1t was shown
that there are numerous and glar1ng
inequalities in tax assessments, re-
sulting in inequitable payments by
the tax payers. The association will

Metuchen, June 23.-Sixteen year
old Albert Lenegher, on his way
from Albany, N. Y, to Skillman, n.
j., lost his way yesterday and walk
ed a short distance along the Penn
sylvania railroad tracks near this
place. The youth was run down by a
Philadelphia express and instantly
killed The boy was thrown along
side the rails in gully, whence ne
was picked up by the crew of4the
express and carried to the freight
house here.
Coroner Eugene j. Mullen, of
Perth Amboy, was called, and after
viewing the body gave permission for
it's burial to Undertaken James Pet-
tit, of this place
Letters found in the boys coat
showed that he was on his way from
Albany to Skillman. One letter was
from his sister, Mrs. F. Dorsey, of
Skillman, and directed the youth as
to the precise route frcm Albany to
Skillman, setting forth diagrams OF
the course, places to change trains,
etc. 1t is believed the boy got OH
the train at the wrong station, and
finding his mistake, decided to walk
the tracks to the next station to utfl-
ize the time until the arrival of the
next train
The boy was struck near the Men
10 Park station by a Philadelphia
flyer, due to pass Metuchen about
l o'clock yesterday afternoon. The
youths skull was crushed in from
the rear.
Undertaken Petit sent a telegram
to the boys brother, Pierce Lene-
CHER, of Albany. who replied re-
piled requesting the body to be held
for instructions from the youths
father. The youth carried a dress
suit case, In which was a prayer
book, on the inside of the cover of
which was recorded his name and
age. 1t is thought the youth lived in
Albany and was making his first trip
to visit his sister, Mrs, Dorsey, at
Skillman.

The Bore.

Some student of the relatively unim-
portant but nevertheless entertaining
side lines of literary history has been
investigating ths origin of the term by
which we characterize the man who
habitually blockades the channels Of
agreeable human intercourse. He has
decided that the word bore" made
its first appearance in the letters OF
Lord Carlisle and of Selwyn, but that
they used 1t with reference not to
creature, but to state or condition.
Thus in 176T Carlisle wrote; Il enclose
Il package OF letters, which, If they are
French, the Lord deliver you from the
bore" 1t was not until the beginning
Of the last century that the word was
applied TO the person who wearies and

Why Steam Cast. a shsdow.

Why does water cast no shadow,
while steam, which Is invisible, does
cast shadow? Pure water In state
of rest Is of uniform density, and the
rays OF light, although they may be re
fracted, pass through it almost unim
peded in parallel lines. Steam is COM
posed of vapor Of different degrees Of
density, intermingled usually with
some air, SO that the rays Of light en-
tering 1t are not uniformly refracted
and therefore interfere with and neu-
tralize each other to considerable de
