CHINA COAST LINERS
NOW FLOAT OLD GLORY
Shipping in Far East Reaches
Critical State

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.--The unusu-
ally critical state of shipping business
in the far east has been brought to
the attention of commercial interests,
as a result of a transfer from the Brit
ish to the American flag of certain YES
sells of the China & Manila steamship
company, which has been operating a
line of steamers between Manila and
the South China coast for twenty-five
years.
According TO a report from Consul
General George E. Anderson at Hong
kong, shipping returns in the Chinese
trade for the last five years indicate
permanent change in eastern shipping,
chiefly in the rise of Japanese shipping,
which has been particularly noticed
since the Japanese war.
The recent transfer was due not only
to the general conditions, but to spe-
cial inducements offered in the Philip
pine trade. At the last general meet
ing of the company report was read
showing that after allowance for re-
pars and expenses of management
and operation the company lost about
$4,000 gold on the years business

FR|AR LAND MEN
DENY ACCUSATION
Philippine Official Charges Con-
gressman with Making a
False Charge

, SAN. FRANCISCO, Dec. 4.-Six Off
cials of the Philippines, who are on
their way to Washington to testify
before the congressional committee
regarding charges made by Represen-
tative John A. Martin of Colorado in
connection with the administration or
friar lands in the islands, arrived mere
today on the liner Manchuria.
Dean C. Worcester, secretary of the
Philippine commission, is at the head
of the party Other members are
Frank w. Carpenter, executive secre-
tary: Charles H. Sleeper. director of
lands: Ignacio Villamor, attorney gem
eral: Rafael del Pan, member of the
code commission, and Carl w. Rhe-
berg, director of friar lands. Benlto
Legardo and Manuel Quezon, resident
commissioners of the Philippines In
washington, and four clerks in the
land office accompany the officials.
Supplementing an exhaustive state
ment of the cases of the accused ofrl-
cials in which reports of those con-
nected with theematter are set forth
and which has been published by the
Manila bureau of printing, Secretary
Worcester makes the following state
ment:
MIR. Martin, by the misinterpreta-
ton of passages in official reports
which suited his purposes and by the
suppression of passages which If quot
ed would have made his contentious
ridiculous, has succeeded in presenting
an utterly misleading picture.
"His charge that any relative or mine
has bought or leased friar lands is
false.
STANDS BY RECORD
with the exception of short periods
passed in the United States on leave l
have been in the government service IN
the Philippines continuously since
March s, 1899. The chief resulting
asset which possess is such reputa
ton as my official acts have earned
for me. 1t is automatic that the harm
accomplished by such an attack as that
made by Representative Martin can
never wholly be outdone His speech
was delivered upon the floor of the
house of representatives of the United
States, a forum which is not open to
me. Five weeks elapsed before saw
a copy of it, Circumstances conspired
to delay my reply, which, under any
circumstances, Wills attract less public
notice than did the original charges.
1t is unfortunately true that the pub
lie is often more interested in the
charges than in their refutation. Then
the privileged character of Represen-
tatiVe Martins remarks prevents my
seeking in the courts compensation for
the injury done my reputation by his
false and libelous charges.
This opportunity to face an inves-
tigating committee is Welcomed by
every Philippine official concerned"

BOY AVIATOR FALLS 700
FEET IN HOMEMADE SHIP
Captive AeropIane Snaps Power
Wire; Death Is Instant

DENVER, Dec 4.-Walter Archer,
an 1S-year-old aviator, fell 200 feet in
an aeroplane of his own invention
yesterday at Salida, Colo, according
to a report received here to day, and
was killed. Nearly every bone in his
body was broken.
Archer's machine was driven by
electricity secured from the Salida
Power company's plant. A coil of wire
700 feet long connected the power
plant with the aeroplane, and Archer
when he made his ascension intended
to maneuver within the radius of the
wire. He ventured tri1e too high
and the wire snapped, leaving him
without power to operate his propel-
iers.
Archer had constructed his machine
on original lines and had built it of
odds and ends of material secured
from the mine in which his father
worked as a miner.

THE HOME PAPER OF

GREATER LOS ANGELES
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-02-25

An unmarried woman calling upon
married woman leaves only one card. for
she. of course, does not call upon the
woman's husband. But man calls upon
married woman. any sons she possesses
who are grown and whom he knows
upon the grown daughters, whether or
not he has met them. Perhaps any doubt
Of the number of cards to be left by
woman is dispelled If she remembers
that she leaves one of each of hers for
each woman of the family, and her hus-
band leaves card for each woman and
man.
This is the rule for an afternoon call Or
for teas. An afternoon reception ~
nothing more than an announcement that
the host asS will be in that afternoon 10
see her friends. 1t is taken for granted
that any of the hostess daughters who
are old enough to be in society will assist.
and whoever calls leaves cards for the
whole family. even though the husband :
name does not appear on the lat home
card.
In acknowledging wedding announce
ments cards are sent to those who make
the announcements, but not to those
whose marriage has just taken place.
The bride and bridegroom are not to
have cards unless they have sent lat
homes and then one either calls or
sends cards through the mail.
Cards iii response to an announcement.
il made by mother and father, should
number two of the mans and one of the
woman's. and are addressed Ia the Mr.
and Mrs. who make the announcement
If single woman makes the announce
ment only one of the mans cards is re-
quired with that of his wife. When a
single man sends the wedding notice a
married woman returns her card with
that of her husband, for it is the mos
formal way of saying thank YOU for the
courtesy of being remembered

OF INTERCHANGE
OF ONES VISITING CARDS

If the theory of the interchange of Wis
ting cards is once understood woman
need not puzzle about how she should
acknowledge other cards. For instance,
invitations TO receptions, teas. weddings
or wedding receptions wedding an
no,incement cards or announcements of
All Of these are engraved and are writ
ten in the third person.
Here again is another fundamental rule
OF polite society: An invitation is always
10 be answered in the same form i'm which
II, Is sent. Consequently card is to be
acknowledged by card IA note by a
note: a formal invitation IN the third per-
son requires the third person in the re-
turn answer. a woman who will bear in
mind TO answer i'm similar form will
never make an error in responding
To return to cards. TN the bass of the
second rule just propounded, a card of
any sort is to be acknowledged by a card.
Therefore wedding announcements and
others take visiting card from those re-
ceivinS notices.
Now the rule on which all visiting
cards are sent or given at the door is
this: Each person in tho house who is in
society * entitled to n card. providing
the person calling. l. acquainted with all
the members. II she is not her card is
left for those whom she does know. A
part of this rule is that woman does not
leave her card for a man, as. according TO
etiquette. women do not call upon men.
This is the reason why one married wom-
an calling upon another who is married
leaves one OF her own and two of her
husbands pasteboardS. The woman calls
only upon the other woman. but the man
calls upon the woman and the other man.
