Special Ink Evolved.

AS the carbon of ordinary printing
inks does not bleach in using printed
material for new paper, French firm
has patented a special ink. The black
pigment is compound from tanbark
extracts acting on ferrous sulphate,
and this is incorporated with resin,
or mineral oil and resin, or boiled lin
seed oil. In repulping the paper the
ink is bleached with an acid solution
of a hypochloride, chlorine gas, or
hydrochloric or oxalic acid, the pulp
being made perfectly white.

ITALY MAY HIT AT TYRoL;
FLEET CONTROLS ADRIATIC

Rome, (v1a Paris), May 24.-Italy's
first move on land undoubtedly will be
against the Austrian frontier. Large
numbers Of her troops are modified in
this territory and the forces of Austria
Hungary are acc up on the other side
Of the boundary.
The mountainous character of the
country where the opposing armies
face each other, the southern part of
the Austrian Alps. promised fighting of
the most difficult nature.
So far as known, the italian fleet is
mostly in h Adriatic, under the COM
mand Of the Duk Of Abruzzi, who is
known to many Americans through his
visits to the United States some 10
years ago. 1t is generally believed that
the fleet will proceed promptly against
the naval strength of Austria in these
waters.
One great purpose Of italy in enter
ing the war Is to gain possession Of
~"unredeemed Italy" a sweep of Aus
trian territory to the north and east
near the head Of the Adriatic sea. This
region, which includes Trent and
Trieste, is Italian in all but nationality.
To attain it has been her cherished
ambition.
Italy's total war strength, including
of all kinds, is figured at
about 1000, 900 men.
When the first blow will be struck
cannot be foretold, but after many
months Of preparation the army. which
has been greatly strengthened, and the
navy are ready.

From information reaching The Hague,
it is understood that the Germans and
Austrians have concentrated approx
mately CSC, 900 men on the Italian from
tier. They have occupied strategic po-
s%itions, in order to meet an attack or
to attempt to strike the first heavy
blow, In an endeavor to dishearten the
new combatants at the beginning Of the
campaign. The Germans constitute the
larger part of this force, which is made
up of "a divisions of approximately TO-
600 men each. Only 10 of these divi-
sions are Austrians.
German n Austrian diplomats here
apparently are not p%erturbed by the
entry n the war Of a new antagon-
list. 1t is pointed out in other quar-
tiers, however. that Italy's decision may
nave the effect Of c%urtailing Germany's
supplies, large quantities of which hith-
erto have reached Germany by way of
