Thinks Turk Abandoned.

1T looks to us as though the powers,
either through prearranged understand
ing or by mutual lack of interest in the
outcome Of the conflict, had abandoned
the Turk to his fate, and would allow
Italy to have her way in North Africa.
In case the occupation OF Tripoli is
followed by the seizure of the Balkans
by other powers and the Turkish empire
falls to pieces within the next few months
or years and the sultan shall be finally
driven from Constantinople it will be to
our minds a fulfilment of Biblical proph-
ecy and the beginning of the end, for the
prophet goes on to say that after this
event has taken place the world is to
pass through period of great disorder
through many upheavals. plaques and
famine, until at last the nations gather
for the last war of earth at Armageddon

Italy's Explanation Here.

dispatch received by the Italian en-
bassy in Washington from Rome may
constitute what is known in diplomacy as
an EXPOSE de motif"-in other words, an
explanation of the causes that led Italy
to decide upon its present course of oc-
cupying Tripoli. The charge d'affaires of
Italy, Mobile Lazzaro die Marchesi Ne
grotto Cambiaso. however stated this
morning that further than a notification
that state Of war exists, which fact he
has communicated to the .tate Depa rt-
ment here. the Italian embassy is with.
out official communication from the home
government He has no reports of opera
lions OF the army and navy
In discussing the situation TODAY the
Italian charge expressed his belief that
the war will be of short duration. but
volunteered no grounds on which he
based this confidence. Without attempting
to enumerate all the troubles between italy
and Turkey. Marchesi Negrotto declared
that friction between the two nations
dates back for many years. and that
every time Italy sought an adjustment
she was met with continued postpone
ments by Turkey. according to the
charge, Turkey evaded settlement until
Italy was compelled al this time to take
the stand she has in an effort to force a
settlement

 In this practical age many brides escheW the conventional trailing robes and veils and wreathS and choose a wedding gown which will serve later as a reception or even a street costume. Many bride is married in a smart tailored suit which she wears as a go- 1ng-aWay gown. In this case the suit IS naturally a bit more elaborate than 1t would have been under other circum> stances. Silk and satin suits are so much in vogue this spring that the practical girl will elect to be married in one or these smart trim rigs and a flow cred toQue and her attendant maid-fOr the informally dressed bride rarely has more than one attendant-may wear similar tailored costume. A satin suit or soft gray, with a blouse of creamy chiffon oyer rose pink, embroidered in gray pearls, and a tOque made of pink geran1umS and a bouquet of the same would be charming costume for the Easter bride who will not wear white. Some girls are brave enough to wear black, and for these interpretations brides the black satin suit will be a smart and very economical costume.

When ready to serve cut in thin slices and lap them in circis on a pretty plate. Small, unsweetened waters may also be served.
 Imitation Poached Eggs.
 Put round pieces of sponge cake on each plate and place in center of each half of a we'll 1-drained apricot, roAnd side up. Add to one cup of the juice from the can the juice of one grape fruit and one orange and one-fourth cup of sugar. Cook this with one tea- spoon of dissolved gelatine and strain. A few pieces of grapefruit should be put under the apricot and a spoonful of this syrup poured over each one. Beat the remainder of the syrup until it begins to stiffen, then add the stiffIy beaten whites of two eggs and pour it around each apricot and serve, very cold A little whipped cream may be added to the syrup also.

and pour over each melted butter and brush each one with beaten egg yolk mixed with a little water. This gives a delicate yellow tinge to the eggs.
 With this course serve Parker House rolls and tiny egg-shaped butter balls on a bread and butter plate.
 A rhubarb sherbet gives a springlike flavor to the menu.
 Rhubarb Sherbet.
 Cook rhubarb without peeling, sweet en it we'll. add orange juice to taste and little gelatine in the proportion of one teaspoon to three cups of sher- bet. Strain, add one beaten egg white to two cups of the mixture and freeze. Serve in glasses and garnish with can died kumquats, one in each glass. The salad, though simple, is excellent for this season.
 Radsh and Carrot Salad.
 Peel the long radishes and cut them in slivers no bigger than a match; make a nest of these on a bed of let tuce, place two or three carrot eggs in each nest and pour over all a cream mayonnaise. The carrots should be scraped, then steamed and salted while steaming. When cold cut them into balls with 1arge-sized potato-ball cut ter and with a sharp knife trim them to resemble eggs.

slips. They will carry bouquets of white lilacs and wear hats of leghorn laden with white and purple lilacS.
 Flower wreathS and short veils are worn by many bridesmaids instead of hats. They are particularly pretty when the maids have fair hair. At one spring wedding the bride will wear tulle veil caught with a posy of white violets at either side of the head, and the maids will wear short tulle veils and wreaths of forgetmenots. Their gowns will be of white crepe over slips of pale blue and they will wear the gifts of the bride-long slender neck chains of silver, with pendant of tur- quoise and pearls.
 Wedding superstitions are many, and some of them are founded on common sense, such as. the wearing of red, which is considered unlucky and cer- tainly does not seem at all bride-like. Shades of purple do not come under the ban, although some brides are afraid of green, while others think it lucky. Yellow is said to be a good

The skirt is mounted on the bodice above the normal waist line. The girdle is of delicate f1ligree silver galloon. The yoke and undersleeveS are of silver en- broidered net, viled with shell-pink chiffon. The surplice bodice and short draped sleeves are cut in one. The drapery is elapsed on the shoulders by garlands of roSebudS.
 The Empire gown, showing the skirt of satin and the corsage of lace, is very soft and graceful. The fichu effect crosses under tabs of satin embroidered with pearls. The sleeves are long and very close fitting. The skirt Is softly draped in front at the waist line. The train is mounted independently under pearl embroidered bands. The skirt is heavily embroidered to knee depth and the same pearl embroidery borders the pointed train. This model would be less expensive, more youthful and quite as effective if all the embroidery were omitted and the lace and fine lines de- pended upon wholly for the effect. The round cap worn by the bride is very Fetching. It defines the head prettily and should be worn with a rather flat and simple coiffure.

Begin the luncheon with a yellow tulip course.
 Tulip Fruit Macedoine.
 Cut the required number of manda- rim oranges half way down in sections to resemble tulip petals, remove the fruit carefully by pinching 1t slightly at the bottom, then cut each petal in rounding point and turn the points outward. Mix the pulp with grapefruit and the syrup from a small can of marron glaces favored with lemon juice. Cut one chestnut, for each tulip, in small pieces and put in the center of the macedoine after the tulip skins have been filled. Serve very cold.
 Instead of soup serve an egg course.
 Stuffed Eggs, Tartare.
 Cook six or eight eggs until hard, cool and remove shells Cut small slice from the top of each and remove the yolk without breaking the white. Mix the yolks with a tartare sauce and fill the whites, rounding it up so as to keep the original egg form. Place each on end in round circle of toast spread with caviar, or anchovy butter or pate de foie gras. To make the sauce tar

CTS. A parasol may be carried instead of the conventional bouquet. A New York dressmaker who makes a special ty of wedding trousseaux is making the gowns of a young woman who is to have large wedding at a country house near New York the week after Easter. The girl is marrying a poor man and will have little use for fine feathers after her marriage. All her clothes are chosen for use rather than display, but they are smart and pretty nevertheless. Her wedding gown is a lovely lingerie affair, delicately en- broidered by hand and made with high neck and long sleeves. The material is very sheer. This gown will do service as dinner gown, dancing gown and garden party gown all summer when the bride is in her new home in a far western town. With it she will wear a hat made of the new Taga1 straw. the crown smOthered in white wister1a. She will wear scarf of white and sil- yer embroidery and carry a fan of white and silver.
