work upon the schedule at the present

than ever before to arrange the dates for
races, runs, tours and the like so as to
give the maximum satisfaction to pro-

racing circuit so that the men following
this branch Of motoring activity will not
be obliged to make long jumps from one
part of the country to another and back
again, but can move Systematically from

That the closed car is coming more and
more into popular favor may be readily
seen by noting the motor vehicles which
whirl about the streets in cities and large
towns. There was a time when closed
cars were for the wealthy. The limou-
sine body cost as much as some cars, and
it was to be had only on the higher-priced
models. But now this is all changed-or
changing. Limousine bodies are obtain
more OF an innovation. pretty nearly
every maker is prepared to supply his
patrons with closed or semi-closed cars.

Washington, Nov 9.=That the
punishment fits the crime and 'blood

Italian embassy today by san Giuliano,
Italian minister of war, referring to
the reported Italian atrocities against
the Turks aud Arabs.
The cablegram from san Giuliano
was in the form o. an official state
ment under the caPticn:
Italian heart; Arabian cruelty"
AT the outset he recognized the
fact that the people abroad might re-
as excessive cruelty and declared that
to be understood thoroughly talks
were necessary with officers and sol
diers, particularly those of the EleV-
enth Beraglieri, those who suffered the
worst in the battle of October 23.
"Cur soldiers occupied the entrench-
nents at Sidi Messy" the minister OF
wars cablegram continued, land be-
tween them and the Arabs situated
back Of the village there had been es-
tablished friendly relations. The ltai-
ian soldiers used to give part OF their
raLions to the Arabs and they MADE
presents to a poor family of Arabs
present, welcomed because OF ther
poverty. The soldiers paid without any
dispute for everything they purchased
