TERMS OF PEACE PRACTICALLY FIXED Paris, Sept. 16.?The terms for peace between Italy and Turkey have been practically arranged with the exception of a proposed loan to Tur key of between 500,000,000 and 600, 000,000 francs, concerning which Italy is now communicating with 1' rencn, r-nynsu ;wiu ucigiuu iiuau ciers, according to a telegram receiv ed today by the Paris Temps from Rene Puaux, one of its editors, at Geneva. | The terms oi' the proposed settle ment include, the despatch suites the tacit acceptance by the porte I hat Italian occupation of Tripoli is an ac complished fact. Turkey being per mitted to retain a Mediterranean port at one o fthe extremities of Lib ya with a strip of territory allowing communication with the Arabs in the interior. Provisions also is made for the recognition of the spiritual suzerain ty ot the sultan in Tripolitania; for ilie payment of monetary grants to the Arab chiefs by Italy, which also will pay to Turkey annually a certain amount of the national debt, the pay ment being guaranteed by revenues from Libya and for the cession to Turkey of some portion of Italian territory in the Red Sea as a compen sation for the loss of Tripoli. The Italian delegates objected to the suggested retrocession of a part of Massowah, in the Italian colony of Eritrea and this may be eliminated. The question of tne status 01 me Aegean islands has not been raised, the writer concludes, as Italy is aware that the powers would not agree to their retention by Italy.

If there ever was a time in the life of the Democratic party when personal ambition should be put aside, that time is now. We owe it to our party and our party leader." PERILS OF TRANSLATION (From the North American Review.) Shakespeare and Dickens are by no neans the only authors who are dif ficult to put into other tongues, trans lators of the I.ible often complaining }f the obstacles they have to sur mount. How, for example, render such i ]j];r:is<> as "whiter than snow" in Ihe language of equatorial Africa, where snow is unknown? In the language )f the Lengua, a tribe in Paraguay, hey were obliged to translate the .voril "eighteen" "chog-emek-wakthla nok, emmik-antanthal-ma," the literal neaning of which is "finished my lands, pass to my other foot-three." ~f. Otlewili Hruce cites the case of a ranslator in New Guiuea, who, get ing stuck with the phrase "Far be it rom me to do this tiling," consulted in intelligent catechuinan, who gave tim the precise idiomatic equivalent 11 a phrase that meant "May I speak 0 my mother-in-law before I will do his thing!" For it seems that in New Juinea it is an unpardonable sin lor 1 man to speak to his wife's mother. Give us a call?always glad to see. ou.
