Attacks on Tea.

Goblet is not alone among authors
In his distaste for tea. Arthur Young
soundly rates the agricultural laborers
of his time for their indulgence In this
luxury. AN object, seemingly, of lit.
tie account he writes. but In reality
of infinite importance. is the custom,
coming in, of men making tea an ar.
ticle of their food, almost as much as
women: laborers losing their time to
come and go to the tea table-nay,
farmers servants even demanding tea
for their breakfast with the maids!
Which has actually been the case In
East Kent. II the men come to lose
as much of their time at tea as the
women and injure their health by so
bad a beverage. the poor in general
will find themselves far more distress
ed than ever."--London Chronicle.

"Inexcusable" Was the Work
of Engineers, Says the
Report

Boston, Dec. 3l.--There is sharp criti.
cism of the New Haven railroad in tht
report which the Massachusetts railroad
commission gives out this afternoon on
the Stoughton collision of New. 2s, this
year The commission says that the
accident was due to loose methods OF
signalling or lack of it and declares one
engineers failure to flag is inccaeeivable
and inexeusable; that the employees there
were well aware of the situation in gem
eral. THE investigation of this acci-
dent says the report, disclosed the fact
that loose methods in the operation of
trains were employed at certain times
in the Stoughton yard, and that GER
tain train movements were made iii
some instances without flag protection
and at other times with what be termed
short tagging"
1t points out that laxity in the observ.
ance or enforcement of rules is far
reaching and that once an employee al
lows himself to violate the rules he
is more apt to do so again. The rec
ommendation is made that the manage
ment of the New Haven maintain
system of discipline" which will enable
il to reduce to a minimum accidents
on the roads which it operates in this
state.

the exaggeration OF the press agent. but
an absolute certainty. 1t has been tried
and dramatic writer of world wide
reputation has said. like majority of

it will not be out of place to state that

wings being strong considering the

In accordance with this we find that
