SURELY LOOKS

Italy and Turkey Making Faces at Each Other Over Dispute Involving Their Mutual Interests in Fri poll.
JOURNAL-MINER.

LONDON, Sept 2S-Italys warships are before Tripoli and Italy's ultima tum is in the hands of the Turkish government. only a few hours will elapse before Turkey must reply. Late dispatches from Constantinople report that Turkey has rejected Italy's demands. Dispatches from Rome in dicate such an answer would not be surprise. Therefore Italy is rush ing preparations to dispatch warships and troops to that portion of the Turkish Empire over which she now demands protectOrate. That the sit nation in Tripoli is critical is evidenced by the fact that the Italian residents and many Europeans are hastily de- parting. There is a veritable panic among the foreigners although so far the Turkish government has main- tained order. The Italian government is backed by the newspapers of the country but the British press has se- verely arraigned it for what is termed precipate action. Germany which has bttI iHltiNtuiuS III Dtiisill bA uihtS for a peaceable settlement, has failed so far to make progress. Some Ger man papers are bitter in their de- nunciation of Italy's methods. The Russian steamer Derna, which yes terday entered Tripoli harbor, and landed men and munitions is sadi to be only one of a number of trans ports despatched to that port.
 CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 2S.-Ita- ly has presented an ultimatum to Turkey. The Italian charge. accom- panied by the first dagoman embassy, called on the grand vizier at 2:3O D. m. and presented his papers. Italy demands an answer in 24 hours, and will accept nothing but immediate evacuation of Tripoli and BenghaZ.
 It is reported tonight the Turkish government has decided to reject the Italian demands embodied in the uI- timatum, but has addressed an ex- planatory communication to the pow CTS.
 When it became known that Italy had granted a time limit of only 24 hours, in which to enable the Turkish government to instruct the authorities at Tripoi not to oppose the Italian landing, there was consternation in public and official circles.

"Handsome Dan."

Standing in the middle of the road,
watching the dust cloud that trailed
the fast disappearing motor car, Mr..
Maitland cut figure sufficiently for
lorn and disconsolate to have distilled
pity from the least sympathetic heart.
His hands were thrust stifhy at full
arms length into his trousers pockets;
rumpled silk hat was set awry on
the back of his head; his shirt bosom
was sadly crumpled; above the knees,
TO casual glance, he presented the
appearance of a man carefully attired
In evening dress; below, his legs were
sodden and muddied his shoes of
patent leather, twin wrecks Alas for
jauntiness and elegance, alack for ease
and aplomb!
Tricked," observed Maitland. cas-
ually, and protruded his lower lip,
thus adding to the length of a counter
ance naturally long. "Outwitted by a
chit of a girl! Dammit"
But this was crude melodrama Real
ling which, he strove to smile; q sor-
ry failure.

cooking his head to one side eyed
the road inquiringly. Where in thun-
der d'you suppose she got hold of that
name?"
Bestowed upon him in callow col
lege days, it had stuck burr-like for
many weary year. OF late however.
Its use had lapsed among his acuuain-
tances; he had begun to congratulate
himself upon having lived it down.
And now it was resurrected, flung at
him in sincerest mockery by a woman
whom, to his knowledge, he had never
before laid eyes upon. Odious amelia.

through the dust that soon settled
upon the damp cloth of his trousers
legs and completed their ruination.
But Maitland was beyond being dis
turbed by such trifles. A wounded
vanity engaged his solicitude to the
exclusion of all other interests.
At the end of As minutes he had
covered the remaining distance be-
tween Greenfield station and Maitland
Manor. For five minutes more he

the box hedge which set aside his ances-
trail acres from the public highway. At

blue-stone carriage drive wound away
to the house, invisible in the waning
light, situate in the shelter of the
grove of trees that studded the lawn.
Gasoline! Brrr!" said Maitland,
shuddering and shivering with the
combination of a nauseous odor and
the nights coolness-the latter by now
making itself as unpleasantly promi-
nent as the former.
Though he hated the smell with all
his heart, manfully inconsistent he
raised his head, shifting the air for

Over the rear of the seat a gray
gauntlet was waved at him, as tanta-
lizing as the hooking laugh that came
to his ears.
He paused, thunderstruck, appalled,
by this monstrosity of ingratitude.
The machine gathered impetus,
drawing swiftly away. Yet in the still
ness the farewell of the gray girl came
to him very clearly.
