SIZE UP THE WEST
SENATOR CRANE WILL LOOK
OVER THE SITUATION.
IS BY PRESIDENT'S REQUEST
Nation's Chief Executive Cancels All
Fall Engagements, but Will Make
the Trip to Panama.
Beverly, Mass. Senator WInthrop
Murray Crane of Massachusetts, who
occupies in the senate a position simi
lar to that of the republican "whip"
in the bouse, was summoned to
Beverly Friday by President Taft and
had a long talk with the chief exe
cutive.
Senator Crane was asked by the
president to make a trip through the
west in the near future, going as far
as Seattle. He will inquire into
political conditions in the states
through which he travels. The pres
ident is said to desire this informa
tion first-hand. He has the utmost
confidence in Senator Crane's poli
tical sagacity. The senator is noted
for the quiet manner in which he ac
complishes the most difficult tasks
During the last session of congress
Mr. Taft relied absolutely upon the
junior senator from Massachusetts,
and often made bim the means of
communicating the administration's
views to the upper branch of con
gress. In selecting an emissary to
the west, the president naturally
turned to Senator Crane.
The senator already has made a
few quiet trips of observation. an1
discussed what he had learned with
tbe president The senator's visit
was surrounded with the greatest
secrecy. Not until the senator was
seen was it admitted at tbe executive
office that he had been anywhere in
the vicinity of the president's cot
tage. It was denied that Mr. Crane's
visit to the president bad anything to
do with the Balilnger-Plnchot con
troversy. It is stated with authority
that the president never has con
sidered, and never will consider, ask
ing Secretary Ballinger to retire from
the cabinet
Another significant move made by
the president, and of almost equal
Importance with the proposed mis
sion of Senator Crane, was the an
nouncement that Mr. Taft has can
celled all of the engagements, tenta
tive and otherwise, that he bad male
in different parts of the country for
this fall. Important affairs of ad
ministration, it was said, would keei
the president busily engaged at Be
verly and Washington until Novem
ber. In November, it was announced, the
president will make a three weeks'
trip to the Isthmus of Panama to ob
serve the progress of the work on the
big canal. Whether the cancellation
of the numerous engagements for the
fall means a reversal of the presi
dent's travel policy or not could not
be learned. Political consideration
may have had a great deal to do with
the president's decision. It would b'
difficult for the president to trave?
through the doubtful states in Sep
tember and October without bein
drawn ino the camnalpn. or at least
having his speeches construed into
political utterances. In a srecch at
Rockland. Me., the other day Mr. Taf
said he did not believe a pre-ident of
the United States had a right to talk
politics.

Columbus. O. Presence of three

IRONING DAY HINTS
FIRST OF ALL DRESS COMFORT
ABLY FOR HOT DAY'S WORK.
Some Suggestions to Lighten the Bur
dens ef This Most Strenuous sf
the Housekeeper's Days
Cushion for the Feet
First, dress comfortably. A loos
and thinner blouse than usually wont
Is of much advantage in keeping cool.
When the work Is completed don the
usual apparel, and the chilly, uncom
fortable feeling so common after a
day's ironing may be avoided.
If there is a big day's work, have
an old cushion upon which to stand.
No one knows how much it will rest
the tired feet, unless they have tried it
The irons should be clean and
smooth. The board should be covered
with a cloth in which there are bo
seams or patches, as these make shiny
streaks or creases In any garment
pressed over them, which Is especially
undesirable in fine flannel or wool
goods. An old flannel sheet is a very
nice covering to tack to the board,
and a light cotton one for a removable
cover, as it can be washed easily.
A piece of beeswax tied up in a rag,
to rub quickly over the bottom of the'
hot flatiron. will keep it smooth, and
the Iron will glide over the clothes'
much more readily, especially if they
are starched ones.
In pressing any goods or clothes
where it Is customary to place a cloth
over them before ironing, use a news
paper Instead; it gives a gloss to rib
bon or silk, leaves no lint stiffens
cambric. If it be slightly damped, and
when scorched can be thrown away at
no loss and a fresh one procured.
If seams are pressed over a broom-,
stick or any rounded edge, with care
In keeping them straight there will
be no shining streak to mark their
length, as Is often the case when the
pressing is done upon a flat surface,
as nothing can strike the wood but the
point of the seam.
A bosom-board for line shirts should
be very smooth and but thinly cov
ered; some advise a marble slab, but
we cannot all afford that
Fond of Trips? Try This.
Italians sre extremely fond of tripe
and prepare It In a variety of appetiz
ing ways. It is most digestible and is
usually served with Parmesan cheese.
Wash in cold water two pounds of the
honeycomb tripe and put it In a sauce
pan with two quarts of boiling salted
water. Simmer gently for ten minutes,
drain and dry with a clean cloth. Cut
in fine strips about an inch in length.
Put In a saucepan three tablespoons
fuls of olive oil. and when hot add two
tablespoonfuls of white onions cut In
thin slices and cook until a golden
color. Add the tripe, cook slowly for
15 minutes, season with salt pepper,
a dash of cayenne, a tablespoonful of
parsley and a tablespoonful of tomato
conserve. Serve with grated cheese.
Both the cheese and the conserve can
be purchased in any Italian store
much more reasonably than can be
procured elsewhere. The conserve
comes in little tin cans, five cents
a can. and last indefinitely, since a
spoonful is quite sufficient for season
ing. Surprise Nuts.
A delightful addition to a party for
young people may also afford a pleas
ant occupation for a rainy day. Get
some of the small brown nuts called
"Spanish." saw them carefully apart.
remove the meat and utilize it for
sandwiches: then line the empty half
ehell with waxed paper and fill that
with some confection cream, fudge,
.etc.; glue the halves together and
serve them as ordinary nuts. They
will delight the children, because they
will be so unexpected. One suspects
walnuts but these little brown things
do not often deceive. Mottos might
be put In every tenth nut and the
hard shell outside marked with a tiny
bit of color. The preparation of both
mottos and shells will often fill up a
dull afternoon very pleasantly. j
Boiled Fish.
"If you always fry fish try boiling
them for a change. Cut three pounds
of fish Into thin slices and sprinkle
with salt One quart of water, one
fourth whole pepper, one tablespoon
chopped onion, one tablespoon chopped
celery and one tablespoon chopped
carrot will be required. Clean tbe fish
and let it stand in salt for an hour, at the time, but a few days later, while
Put the vegetables in tbe water and reading one of bis articles In print
