Afternoon Tea,

One of the fads that has cropped
out with the settled habit of after
noon tea drinking is the serving of
colored bonbons with the tea in place
of cube sugar. Some women make
these bonbons, coloring them to suit
the fittings of the table and flavoring
them with lemon or orange. Rock
candy is also used for this purpose.
Lemon and tea are said to clear the
complexion, but IL one is very tired
the tea should be drunk clear or with
a little milk and very slowly. If one
ever noticed the epicurean comfort of
an old tea drinker with cup of hot
tea one must have observed with what
deliberation the tea was taken. 1t Is
a fault with many housewives to let
the tea stand too long after the water
goes on before serving. Seven min
utes is the prescribed limit of any
brand, and less than five is better
with all kinds. For second cup,
where teapot is for the first service,
a tea ball or perforated tea-making
spoon. is a convenience.-New York

7AFTS MESSAGE WILL COVER ID LIVE SUBJECTS
Economy in Government, Conservation Railroads. Delays
Trials ard Tariff Among the List

New York.-President Tafts mes
sage to the coming session of con-
gress will cover fourteen principal
subjects, writes staff correspondent
of the World from Beverly. How each
of these will he treated has not been
settled in detail, but in a general way
the President has made up his mind
on most of them. The subjects are:
/. Conservation. Recommends
tions will be guided by reports from
interior department experts now in
vestigating and from congressman,
each of whom will report for his own
district. The only official informa-
ton is that the recommendation will
be constructive and progressive, but
within the law.
2. Economy in government. This
subject has progressed no further at
present than pruning in the depart
ments. A commission Is investigat-
ing and the administration is trying
to find some way Of large saving with
out touching army and navy appro-
priations.
3. 1t is hoped the railroad stocks
and bonds commission, though not
yet appointed, will report in time to
get into the message.
To Remedy Laws Delays.
4. AS Mr.. Aldrich has announced
his intention of retiring March 3
next, 1t is expected that he will sub
init the report of the monetary COM
mission to the coming session, and
that the President will base recon-
mendations on 1t. Both this item
and the preceding one may be COW
cred in special messages.
s. Reform in federal. civil and
criminal court practice is subject
on which the President feels earnest
ly. He was unable to get any action
at the last session and will lay the
subject again before congress.
6. Ship subsidy, or the subsidizing
OF mail carrying steamers, will be
urged again.
4 An act fixing employers liabil-
ity and supervising employees COM
pensation will be urged. This sub

SAY FREIGHT RATES
MUST Be INCREASED
Railroads Claim Il Is Only Way
to Meet Wage Demands.

Chicago, April 2.-Bankruptcy or an
Immediate increase in freight rates
was the cry sent up from the general
offices of the big Western railroads
following the boost in wages voluntar-
lily given the employees of the Pennsyl-
vania and the Reading lines, which
action has already been felt in the
increased uneasiness in the Western
railway situation.
"In order to maintain our equip
ment, pay our dividends and at the
same time increase our wage sched-
ule," said Vice President E. w Nc
Kenna of the Chicago, Milwaukee and
st. Paul railroad, I'VE must increase
our rates. There is but one way and
that Is to raise our freight rates.
Shippers protest at the very men,
tion of such thing. 1t is time they
realized that, as the railroads are the
life blood of the country, unless they
are kept up to the standard demanded
by heavy traffic the country which
they keep alive will feel the resultant
effects and, lacking nourishment, will
grow sick and die.
1.-The panic of 1907 will be only a
flea bite compared with the panic we
are facing unless conditions are al
lowed to adjust themselves. The roads
have but one alternative. They must
increase their revenue through higher
rates. The increase by the Pennsyl-
vania lines in the wages of its men
will undoubtedly influence wage nego-
tiations In the West Every dollar in
crease in wages means just so much
to be raised by the roads and there is
but one way to do this-raise the
frei9ht rates"

Grosscup with official acts for which,
they assert, he lacked authority of

about the conduct of receiverships,
principally that of the Union Traction
company of Chicago, in his court. The
labor men assert the appointment of
Marshall E. Samsell as receiver Of this
company while he was private secre-
