SAID TO BE RUsE.
Belief Expressed That the Steamer
Hawkins Was Not Wrecked.

Norfolk, Va. Feb. 3.-In the minds
of many persons, who say they have
something tangible upon which to
base their incredibly, it is doubted
whether the fillbustering steamer J.
w. Hawkins was really wrecked.
There is a possibility she may be at
present near the Cuban coast, ready
to land her cargo of arms and am
munition.
The arrival here yesterday of the
battleship Maine and the statements
of many of her crew, publicly ex-
pressed and reported as being circu-
lated among the ships of admiral
Bune's squadron, give color to this.
II is a fact that the Names crew are
of opinion the Hawkins has proceed
ed to Cuba, and that those on her

United States authorities, but that
they pulled the wool so far over the
eyes of the Spanish agents that it
will be several days before the ruse
of the Cuban sympathizers will be
disclosed. Then the warllke cargo
will have been landed in Cuba.
Belief is expressed that the steam
err carried many Cuban sympathizers
to sea, after taking on several extra
boats, and when we'll outside put
them off, with the understanding
tnat they would say the Hawkins
had gone to the bottom. They knew
the authorities were after them,
and they resor.ed to this trick to
throw their pursuers off.

Blisters, which are necessarily so
very painful, should be bathed on 60
ing to bed with strong salt and water,
for which, If they are very tender, it is
an excellent thing to add just very lit
tie vinegar and fine pounded alum. If
the blisters come up very high it is wise
to let out the accumulated fluid by run
ming O darning needle through the
upper surface of the blister. If it is al
lowed to break the surface of the skin,
it is apt to become very sore, sometimes
being very difficult to heal. Burn
ing feet may be relieved by making a
bath of one gallon of hot water, one
ounce of bi-carbonate of soda and one
pint of bran; let the mixture stand until
it is cool enough for the feet to be i'm
mersed in it, then soak the feet for
IS minutes.-Good Housekeeping.
