London, Aug. 24.-Italy has declared
war on Turkey.
Marquis di Garroni. Italian ambas-
sador to Turkey, Saturday handed to
the Porte note declaring Italy con-
sidered herself in q state of war with
Turkey and demanded his passports,
according to an official telegram from
Constantinople received at Amster-
dam and transmitted to the Central
News. The reasons given in the note
for Italy's declaration of war were
the support given by Turkey to the re-
volt in Libya and the prevention of
the departure of Italian residents
from Syria. The declaration of hos
tilities by Italy has been expected for
ing Turkeys recent refusal to permit
thousands of Italian subjects to leave
Turkish territory. Protests were sent
from Rome and the matter was the
subject of diplomatic negotiations the
past week. Italy, it is reported. has
been holding large squadron in read
mess to sail for Turkish points. Sew
eral army corps also have been in
readiness for several days to move to
a secret destination.
The immediate effect of the action
will be in the Dardanelles. to which
a large force of Italian soldiers prob
ably will be dispatched at once to aid
the French and British in their at
tempt to capture Gallipoi peninsula
and force the opening Of the straits.
The Italian government, says Stef-
FAM dispatch from Rome. has sent to
all its representatives abroad a circu-
lar dispatch setting forth the ques-
tions at issue between Italy and Tur-
key. The dispatch closes with these
words:
"In view of these obvious infrac-
tions of categorical promises made by
the Ottoman government and follow
ing upon our ultimatum Of Aug. 3. pro-
voked by evasions OF the Ottoman
government, particularly with regard
to the free departure of Italian sub.
jects from Asia Minor. the Italian gov
ernment has sent instructions to its
ambassador at Constantinople to de-
clare war on Turkey" 70 -.
A dispatch to the Central News from
Petrograd says:
THE President of the Duma has an
nounced that the Germans lost the
battleship Moltke. three cruisers and
seven torpedo boats in the Riga bat
tle."
The announcement of the President
of the Duma as sent by the cores
pondent follows:
I'm the Riga battle the Germans lost
one superdreadnaught. the Moltke,
three cruisers and seven torpedo
boats. The German fleet has with
drawn from Riga bay. The Germans
tried to make a descent near Pernpvin
(Pernigel on the east shore of the
Gulf of Riga some thirty-five miles
north of Riga). Four barges crammed
with soldiers took part in the descent.
They were repulsed by the Russian
troops without the cooperation of ar
tillery, the Germans being extermi-
mated and the barges captured

PILGRlMAeE OF Love
By HAROLD CARTER.

LAngw1th had lost AAela. He had
been in love with her foe three years,
and during that time he had never
dared to ask her the auestioa which
would put an end to his doubD. Adela
was rich woman. and Langwtth. IKE
many paintera. Vas desperately poor.
During those three years hs worked
feverishly, striving to make Q name.
Then. when he stood squarely upon his
feet, and his pictures were becoming
recognized for their worth. he told her
OF his love. And she refused him.
He had gone away hopeless. She
did not love another man. but she did
not love him. She could not love, she
said. Adela, rich. discontinued. but In.
ehably dear to him, did not know her
own heart. Langwith had q clear pic.
ture Of her in his mind during that
time Of despair. Her beauty, her high
breeding. her dissatisfaction with life
would, he knew, make marriage inevi
table for her in the future. and, he
feared. would bring unhappiness with
It.
She had promised him, with tears
that If ever she changed her mind she
would write to him. But three more
years had passed away and he had moi
seen her since. She had gone away
to Camways that summer. to a little
seaside village. and after that she hat
travelled in Europe. 1t was more thar
year before she returned to hel
house in the metropolis. No letter hat
come. Langwith had never tried t.
see her, but his love burned the f1ercel
for its impossibility of fulfilment.
The third summer after he had los
her Langwith resolved to 60 to Cam
ways. It was a pilgrimage Of love. H,

women battle for suffrage In q non
prohibition state, the forces against
them are led by the liquor interests.
But. prohibition Is now sweeping the
country faster than woman suffrage.
It has overtaken and passed the bal
lot movement. In states which have
become prohibition territory the wom-
en- find their work is made easy. With
prohibition a fact. the liquor interests
give up the fight against votes for
women.
The change which has come over
sentiment in the south is one of those
political phenomena which are not en-
tirely applicable. The United States
are now half white" as the suffra-
gists say. Looking at the suffrage
map, one-half the territory of the
country is now white, having given
full suffrage to women. Another por-
ton is gray, meaning partial suffrage.
while comparative small part is
black.
Gain In South.
The White territory Is a solid block
in the western half; the gray extends
through the middle and northwestern
states, while the big black block is the
south, corresponding nearly to the So
called "solid south" of the Democratic
party
The south up to now has been suf-
frage wilderness, where the seed
seemed to fall on barren soil. But TO-
day the belief in suffrage is growing
there faster than in the northern half
of the states east of the Mississippi.
J This change has come about prln-
cipally in the last twelve months and
is intimately connected with the new
attitude of the members OF state leg1s-
latures. Politicians usually have look
ed on the votes for women speakers
or lobbyists either with amused con-
tempt, cold indifference or acute rear
and hostility. These three stands. all
dangerous to woman suffrage, are CIV
ing way to a good-natured complac-
ency. It is somewhat the same attl-
tude that the notoriously easy going

Portable financial circumstances takes

wife for some unprecedented piece OF
finery.
"Oh, let her have it," in his thought,
"she seems to want it, and l don't see
how it will do me any harm compared
to the satisfaction she apparently will
feel!"
It is American chivalry to the fore.
Chivalry toward women is especially
of the better blood OF
the south. The south loves and re-
spects womanhood, and this noble
feeling is just swinging around to
desire on the part of the men that
their women have as great pollt1cd.

CREEKS CLASH
WITH SEEDERS
IN BIG GAME

With the Seeders having won the
first two games of the city champion
ship series with the Greek polo FIVE,
the third game will be staged tonight
at the Coliseum. If the Seeders can
annex this game then Richmond's polo
season is ended, but If the Greeks can
get together and hang on long enough
to take the former team, then the Sc
ries will be extended into next week.
One of the best games of the sea-
son was played Monday night, and
with the Greeks rapidly getting back
into winning form again a better and
faster exhibition should be the result
when they clash tonight.
The boast of the Seeders that they
will take three straight is rather rank
ling in the breasts of the Greeks, and
it will be their one desire to say after
the game that it can't be done. Seedcr
rooters can see nothing to it but their
team, and despite everything to the
contrary the Greeks followers still
claim that their team has not yet put
up the game Of which it is capable.
With games won standing one and
one, the Keystones and Kandyankles
will go after each other for the rub
game, which is to be the curtain rails
er to the Greek-Seeder affair. There
has been a lot of amusement connect
ed with these games, but at that you

men wearing musical-comedy costumes
lcping across fields and hurdling
bitches.
Orders have been issued by Coach
Brown for the track men and cross
country runners to run in the open
three afternoons each week, since the
weather has moderated. In addition
to as much outdoor work as the
weather will permit the track athletes
are working on the jumps and other
field events in the gymnasium each
afternoon.
Baseball men have also been taken
from their steam-heated hotbed and
are being exposed to the spring winds
each afternoon on Reid field. Al
though Coach Brubaker will make no
selections until shortly before the
opening game, the bleacher bugs who
