A business girl who lives in one or
two rooms is at more or less of a dis
advantage when it comes to entertain
ing her friends The difficulty is not
as insurmountable, however, as it
might seem. -Four. or even eight per-
sons, may be entertained at a whist
or euchre. and dainty luncheon serv-
ed to them afterward, without a great
deal of cost or inconvenience. In serv-
ing the refreshments move the card
tables close together, and cover them
with a dainty cloth, of. If the enter
tainment is to be a very simple one,
with paper napkins. The table should
require very little setting. a plate,
knife, fork and spoons, and a water
glass for each person. Serve lettuce
and egg salad. which is easy to get
ready beforehand. sardine or cheese or
olive sandwiches. chocolate with whip
ped cream, and for dessert fresh straw
berries with the hulls on, which are
dipped in a little mound of powdered
sugar on the side of the plate. This
is Just the kind of luncheon that wo-
men enjoy in warm weather and all Of
the friends Of the hostess who receive
an invitation viii appreciate the diff
fculties under which she has labored,
and the cleverness with which she has
overcome them, and will probably en-
10y her little party quite as much as
though il we're given in the most fash

ACTS OF SERVANTS
BIND RAILROADS

WASHINGTON. June s-The rule has
been established that a railroad official
or agent who makes a rate lower than
is legal does not absolve the higher
officials OF the railroad or the COM
pany itself. This was established by
a decision Of the Federal Court at Lit
tie Rock, Ark. in the case of the Gov
ernment against the Missouri Pacific
and the st. Louis, Iron Mountain and
Pacific roads, in which the roads were
fined $4,000 each for granting rebates.
The merchant benehtting by the re-
bate and the official who granted 1t
were fined a similar amount and costs.
The Attorney General stated that be-
fore consenting 10 the imposition OF the
$4,000 fine against the railroad COM
panies he had caused TO be made a
careful examination Of all the circum-
stances under which the rebate was
given. and was fully convinced that
the railway companies were not moral
IN but only technically guilty OF any Of
fense against the Elkins law. II ap-
peared from this investigation that the

MORE BUOYS
FOR The RIVER
Will be Furnished in Response
to Protests by Maratime
Exchange

Additional safeguards for the immense
volume OF commerce that passes in and
out of the Delaware are assured 20 the
maritime interests as the outcome Of the
protest against present conditions. re-
Gently lodged with the Lighthouse Board
by a comittee representing the Philadel-
phia Maritime Exchange.
While all Of the additional aids to navi-
cation that were demanded have not yet
been determined upon. important inn
provements viii he made at once TO pre-
vent further damage to ships as a result
Of inadequate markings.
The committee which carried the mat
ter before the Lighthouse Board consist
ed Of some Of the most experienced marin-
ers on the Delaware Heading the dele
cation was Captain W. G.. Randle. of the
New York shipbuiding Company; Cap
tain John Virden. president Of the Pilots
Association. Captain Enoch Maddox. Of
the steamship Haverford, and r r. Shar.
wood. secretary Of the Maritime Ex-
change.
1t was conclusively shown that recent
serious accidents in the river have re-
suited from the wretched inadequacy oi
the existing aids TO navigation. Statistics
we're placed before the board. showing
that while the average distance between
buoys in the channel approach to New
York is 3 Of mile. and that at Balti
more As Of mile, the distance hetweer
buoys in the Delaware Is 1874 miles. Th'
/ greatest distance between huoys in th'
/ Delaware was shown 10 be 3.72 miles
against less than a mile in either Of IN
other two channels.
Admiral Mark before whom the mat
ter was placed. and who is thoroughl'
familiar with the needs OF the river, wa
evidently impressed by the presentation
and it now develops that in importan
particulars these needs are TO be met.
one Of the most urgent Improvement
demanded by the committee was the bet
ter marking of the channel in what
known as the "smoke area" betwee
Chester and wilmington owing TO III
Evening journal., 1909-06-07

low-lying smoke over this part Of the
channel It is extremely difficult In many
stages OF weather and wind to discern
the channel markings The committee be-
lieved that over this stretch there should
be a line OF buoys on the weaA edge Of the
channel and another on the east edge
20 that IT viii be possible for ships at all
times 10 know the precise limits.
This. Il was stated yesterday. Is to be
acceded TO by the board. The two lines Of
buoys win be mile apart, and each pair
will be directly opposite each other The
alternate proposition was TO "stagger
the buoys-that is, pace them alternately
on either side Of the channel, so that they
would be half mile apart, but this the
board did not agree TO.
In addition 10 this needed lights are to
be placed on the lower end Of schooner
edge range. so that this dangerous part
OF tho river viii be far better protected
than Il has been.
