FORAKER ANSWERS
MULHALL CHARGES
(Natioral News Association


WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Former
Senator J. c. Foraker, of Ohio, pub
lished his statement regarding the
Colonel Mulhall charges at the Senate
Lobby investigating committee today
by denying testimony given by Tru-
man Palmer, the beat sugar lobbyist,
who said Foraker had aided in keep
ing up the tariff on Philippine sugar.
Foraker said he was in favor of re-
duoed rate.
Foraker then explained his connec-
tion with David Lamar. He met Lamar
seventeen years ago when the Union
Pacific railroad was about to be sold.
Lamar represented himself as an
agent of Russell Sage and said that
the government was about to be de-
frauded by the sale of the property for
28 million dollars. Foraker denied that
Governor Hadley referred to in the
disposition of the railroad property
had ever offered to sell the road for
that amount.
Lamar wanted Foraker to accept en-
ployment in holding up the sale of the
property at the low figure. Foraker
refused employment, he said, but went
to Washington and laid the fact before
the senate.

MANAGERIAL ABILITY.
If You Think You Possess It Here Is
a Test You Might Try.

Any one who has to manage men or
things must be able quickly to bring
order cut of confusion. Test your
friends talent in this respect by writ
ing on your paper five words of spe-
cial class, such as the names of five
flowers or of five animals or of five
famous poets, with the first letter al
ways in the right place while the order
of the other letters is changed.
The person on whom you are expert
menting knows only to which class the
words belong-whether they are the
names of animals or of flowers or OF
poets. See how long it takes him to
write the five correct words in place of
the misspelled ones
The animal card may read, "Tetrul,
etalenph, dykeno, serdip, ealliro, and
the vegetable card. "Velito, diloifad,
melap, moroshmu, cuttnesh.' Some
persons will be able to read at once
Turtle, elephant, donkey, spider, go
rilla,," and the other card. Violet, DAT
fodil, maple, mushroom, chestnut"
Others who have no talent for rear
ranging the elements of confused sit
uation will stare at the words, unable
to- make an sense of them.r--fi ugx

SERVANT SECRETS.
Small Points That Go to Make Good
Mistresses and Happy Maids.

A certain woman who is famous
among her friends for the smoothness
with which she runs her house and
manages her servants was asked the
other day To tell the secret of her
success. She smiled as she said that
she had simply taken her own mother
for her model in this respect.
Always" she said, have / eXer-
cised the same th@ughtful care for
those in my employ, and | never have
had Il servant leave me from any
cause than that of illness or getting
married or to better herself in some
way, perhaps to so into business. i
never had servant steal from me-
give me disrespect, nor slight her
work and my comfort in any way.
Invariably, when taking on new
servant | have said: Give me the
best there is in you; make me COM
Portable. for that is what | engage
you for, and we viii be good friends
and you viii always find me a
thoughtful and respectful mistress,
and if things go wrong with you come
to me at once, tell me the truth, and
you will not find me wanting.
And | never found them wanting,
never go about missing something
and putting the air of distrust upon
my servants. | begin with them on Il
strict business basis, tell them that
things have places TO be kept in. and
/ expect 70 find them there: that my
silver is regularly counted, not that |
doubt anyone. but because | have Il
system and keep my house by it. In
the samesWay it is with articles of lit
tie or no value. Three-f ourths of the
trouble with servants arises from the
slurs. insinuatiOns, doubts, suspicious,
and bad tcinpers of their employers.
\ servant never likes to hear herself
talked about when passing through
the house on her tours of duty, and
when she is talked about she cannot
avoid hearing it.
IF one would be respected and well
served, one must begin by earning
that respect / respect my servant
who comes to me with we'll cooked
meal and serves me well. She is al.
expert in her trade and she saves me
worry and disappointment in many
things. When it is her day off | give
it to her without stint, and, to make
me feel that she appreciates it, often
she will tell me that she would pre-
fer to remain at home
Again | say: If women would treat
their servants more like human beings,
they would have better service, and
they would be making their own lives
happier, if not better. Tit Bits.

Too Much Steam
On the Riyadavia.

Boston, Sept. lS.-The super Dread
nought RiVadavia, built for the Ar
gentine Republic. failed to complete
her 0-houis run, which was begun
at Roekland, Me, yesterday morning.
She anchored. today, in President
Roads, Boston harbor, for repairs. This
accident, according to her builders, is
an unimportant one.
The trouble. it is said lay in the
fact that some of the battleships
boilers made too much steam, SO
that some of the buckets on the star
board engine began to curl under the
great pressure, causing loss of efii-
cheney. The repairs, it is estimated,
will affect the starboard turbine en-
CINE and boilers
Similar trouble, which came to light
during the Rivadavia's trip to New
York, month ago, delayed the trials
for two weeks
The Rivadavia is expected to he
ready to put 10 sea again, some time
Saturday. Then she will begin again
the 3o-hour trip, during which her
contract calls for an average speed
of 20 knots.
