PUBLIC OPINION.

Some Italian editors say that Italy
will be satisfied with arbitration.
Just what the United States has to
arbitrate Is not clear. There is only
the question of indemnity, and the
United States Is able to settle it with
out any advice from any
phis Appeal-Avalanche, Dem.
1t is hoped that the italian govern
ment will not look for successor to
Baron Fava among the italian editors
in this country. These gentlemen
seem to have much trouble to restrain
themselves from engaging in a war
at once, and this tendency might en-
barrass them as diplomats.-New
York World, Dem.
1t is not likely that Pitts burg or
any orheI American city is in any
danger from the Italians. With the
late of the Malta gang at New Orleans
before them, they are not going to
monkey with the people of this coun-
try or DEFY their laws. After
they get through clustering and
passing resolutions they will settle
down and mind their own business.
The fact is, they are not shedding
many tears over the Malta. When
the excitement is over they will be
glad that the country ls rid of the
dangerous conspiTators who so long
terrorized the Crescent City.-A tlanta

From he fHiiddtiphia Times, 18Th.
The other evening three men sat at n
table in q large, bare room, occupying all
the top floor of an auction house on
Chestnut street, examining collection of
books, autograph letters, documents and
relies which could not be duplicated for
the wealth of the world and are valued
at about $4,000. The light from q single
gas Jet flickcred but fcebly over time
stained pages covered with the hand
writing of Washington and many other
members of his family.
The three men were Stan. V. Hcnkles,
the noted auctioneer, who possesses u
knowledge of rare books and curios be-
yond most men; Lawrence Washington,
descendant Of Bushrod Washington,
and tho writer. The collection which we
were examining largely belonged to Law
renee Washington, having come down to
him by inheritance from George Wash
ington. a large part Of II has been on
exhibition for several years at the Ma
tional Museum at Washington. AS the
Government, for some unaccountable
reason, has refused TO buy these valuable
relics, Mr.. Washington las determined to
dispose of them ut auction. and thus give
the Libraries and collectors of America n
chance to own SOME very valuable and in-
tercsting Americana, in which every cit-
zen of the United States should take n
lively and whole-souled patriotic interest.
Among the most valuable objects which
Mr.. Washington singled out from the con-
fusion of old books and manuscripts
heaped upon the table was the original
will of John Washington, the great-grand-
father Of George Washington. This doc
ument is dated Washington Parish,
County of Wcstmoreland, in Virginia,
September II, 1915. II was witnessed by
John Lloyd and John Appleton, and IS
signed by John Washington. This will
is considered to be valuable and exceed
ingly attractive relic. 1t is all i'll the
with his brother Lawrence came to this
country from England in 1867, having re-
ceivcd a grant of land from the Crown.
1t Is without doubt the rarest American
document in this country to-day, and Is
besides the oldest relic Of the Washington
family.
John Washington's is the scarcest of all
American autographs, and consequently
eager search by collectors has been made
many years for letter or document con-
tanning his signature with the .nengre
success only of M. d. Conway. who found
but short time ago an uttested copy of
John Washington's will in Westmoreland
County, Va. Shortly after this find Law
renee Washington was looking over his
papers when he discovered very unex-
pectedly what Mr.. Conway conceded to be
the original will. How this will came
into the hands Of the family is easily
understood, as in the olden times the law
allowed the parties interested to take the
original will from the Recorders office,
provided that an attested copy was left
In its place, and this was no doubt done
in this instance,

lletwcen eight and nine years ago n
young girl named Anna Prokofyeff, then
16 years of age and of remarkable personal
attractions, suddenly disappeared from
her widowed mothers house in Odessa.
The most searching inquiries were fruit
lessly prosecuted by the police and by the
friends Of the missing girl, whose mother
died two years ago in total ignorance Of
her daughters fate. 1t now transpires
that Anna ProkofyeT was secretly carried
to Constantinople and sold to Salonica
merchant, in whose harem she remained
until the recent death of her owner.
Anna was from the first treated with uni
form Kindness by the Salonica merchant,
who, at his death, bequeathed to his ia
vcritc slave the whole OF his property,
consisting of four houses in Salonica, five
trading schooners and 5000 pounds Tur-
kish. The fair legatee, now only in her
25th year and still possessing her remark
able youthful beauty scarcely impaired,
has placed her two boys under the educa-
tional training Of tho monks OF Mount
Athos; and to their abbot she has pre-
sented one of her schooners. She is now
also converting one of her Salonica houses
into Russo-t,reek free school,
