THE VERDI'S GUNS, The.arrival in this country of the Italian steamship Guiseppe Verdi, with two three inch guns mounted on its stern for the purposes of defense and capable of hitting a target at four and a half miles, furnishes another opportunity for' this country to insist that its previously declared attitude concerning armed merchantmen must be observed. Early in the war an effort was made Dby belligerent nations, which were operating steamships to this country, to carry guns for defensive purposes just as has been done in this case, but they were informed that such falled to meet the approval of this country and- there was an immediate compli- ance with the request for the dis- mounting of the guns or the with- drawal of the ships from trade with this country. The appearance of the Italien liner with guns is the first in- stance of the kind since that time. There is no reason to believe but what the guns have been placed on the ship for the purpose of protecting it and its passengers in case it is unjustly attacked by submarines in the Med- iterranean, but this government can- not guarantee its conduct and it must take the same course in this instance that it did-in those cases which were previously disposed of. The kind of warfare which the sub- marines have been carrying on in the Mediterranean does not entitle them to any protection which the position of this country concerning the arm- ing of merchantmien appears to give, ‘but as a neutral nation it behooves this country to treat both sides in the war alike and to grant no favors to one nation which would not be grant- ed to another, and for that reason it is to be expected that Italy will be esked to dismount the guns.

The new card table covers are white lnen, hemstitched, with darned net squares inserted in two oposite cor- ners. One of these squares has the owner’s initials in it and the other has a heart for the first table, heart and spade for the second and so on, to de: ignate the table number. These squares are inserted by means of the buttonhole stitch. Many persons do not seem to know that the word “tailored” can be appHed to lingerie, yet it can be, and is, to the very latest underwear.

One of the most picturesque figures of the Buropean war is the Servian “komitadji” or guerilla, Jvan Stoiko- vitch, known to fame as Babounsky. The name is drawn from the famous Babouna Pass, where recently the Serbs so long held the invading Bul- garians at . Ivan - Stolkovitch comes from that part of Servia and is therefore known to his followers and to the Servian population at large by a nickname indicating the fact. A slight man, tall, with honest gray- blue eyes and the pale features of a student, he im; his name ins Nor do his looks belle his real profession. For the re- doubtable unsky was a school ‘teacher until fired by an ardent pa- triotism he gave up his classcs to gather about him a band of intrepid spirite in the fight for the release of e Turkish part of Servia from the Ottoman yoke.

While waiting for the arrival of the armies of their compatriots they were not mverse to going through the deserted Servian dwellings and acquiring a few useful articles. Babounsky did not approve of this. Naturally the deserted dwellings &nd all in them would fall into the bands of the conquerors. That was all right —the chance of war. But that former neighbors should do the looting was not in Babounsky's code. those Wwho tried it were dealt with in a most summary manner. ‘Whoever among the Bulgarians was suspected of giving information to the advancing Bulgar armies also recelved short shrift. A story is told of the first Balkan war W . pseudo-Serb known as Kechko was suspected of treason to the n cause. Babounsky’s band appeared upon the scene ome night and Keshko and four .others were arrested. tried in secret by the band at midnight and sentenced to be “sent to Saloniki™ that is, taken to the banks of th Vardar river and thrown in, their bod- ies to drift down with the current to Saloniki. All five were lined up on the bank. Babounsky gave the sig- nal for the fatal blows to be struck. But unfortunately - Kechko's execu- tioner, a lawyer, from Belgrade, had never killed a man before and his hand slipped. The five bodles were thrust into the Vardar, but Kechko was still alive. A week later the Servian consul at Saloniki was called to the hospital. Kechko told him the story of his es- cape from death, but begged that it be kept secret until after, his departure for the United States. Ultimately re- covered from the unskiliful stab of tie Belgrade lawyer, Kechko quietly de parted for America, wher he lives still, unterrified by the famous suerilla.
