The Trades Karnivai, given at the opera
house last night, was one OF the most
novel as well as interesting entertainment
we have seen this winter.
The entertainment was given for the
benefit of the Ladies Aid Society, of the
Christian church, and was managed by
Miss Anthony. The drills were good and
brought forth a hearty burst of applause,
as did most OF the numbers on the pro-
gram. The "Eight Little Widows" made n
decided hit.
Most OF the firms in the city were repre-
scented, and the costumes gotten up by the
young ladies were very pretty and at
tractive.

Then the society was called to order and
each member requested to give an account
of her stewardship, All had been wise;
zone foolish; none of the talents had
been buried. Some were very much wiser,
or more industrious than others, but all
had done we'll. The collection amounted

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, April 12.-The
Cuban junta here received IN Impor-
tant letter from Gen. Gomez. Ii brings
news hat Gomez IS preparing to CO.
operate with the United States forces
in case of war, in an attack upon
Havana.
Gen. Garcia has passed the trocha
and he and Gomez with $4,000 troops,
are now marching westward and
toward Havana. The insurgents are
recruiting in all sections, and from
good authority it is ascertained that
Gomez promises to have from %, 900
to $4,000 troops behind Havana to aid
in reducing it.
This letter added that the Spanish
officials there were greatly worried
over the news of Gomez's approach;
that troops had beer called into la
vana and that much work was being
done in throwing up new earthworks
in the rear of the city and otherwise
strengthening the forts III that section.
The insurgents, so the letter said,
haIled with Joy the Intervention of the
United States, and their ranks were
being rapidly increased daily.

despotism. As to the Spaniards, he said that he found them to be court e,,us and chivalrous and so anxious to fraternize with our men that when they parted from them it was like saying goodby to friends.
 To illustrate how a chaplain must abide by the rules and live up to dis cipline the same as all other soldiers, Chaplain Brown told an interesting story. He and Captain Welland ob- tained leave of absence to go on shore from the transport Tampa one day, and returned to the transport late at night in an open boat. The water flowed so swiftly that the approach to the steamer was a difficult task Neither Captain Welland nor the chap lain had given thought to obtaining the password before going ashore, and they were consequently at loss when the guard challenged them. The chal- lenge came a second and a third and last time, and then, fearing that a shot might follow, the captain shout ed: Don't shoot, the chaplain's on board! The chaplain-don' shoot!"
 The guard was careful. and unwilling to permit landing He wanted fur ther proof, and cried out: Chaplain, what hymn did you give out today be- fore the evening meal?"
 The chaplain shouted back, Five thirty-four!"
 Come On board" said the sentry you've struck our own password

.a.-9--z.-4--.---s.7..------ ,.--' ROUGH RIDERS CHAPLAIN.
A S:aIwarf Soldier PrieSf From
 Arizona.

The Rev. Henry A. Brown, chaplain of the Rough Riders, spent a few days in New York last week as the guest of friends, and was the object of much attention at the Reform club and at other places which he visited in the course Of his short absence from camp. The chaplain is a soldierly looking man, and would attract attention if i'll civilian garb, but with the cross 1nsig- nia on his shoulder straps and the tell tale crossed sabres and the figure 1 on his hat the soldier-priest was stared at wherever he went.
 He was a resident of Prescott, Ariz, when he made the application for the place of chaplain of the First volun- teer cavalry, but his application was one of many. and when the news came to him that he had been chosen he was, to use his own words. "the happiest man in the world" He left his wife and child at Prescott and has been with the command ever since, sharing their hardships and admirably filling the place for which he was selected.
 Chaplain Brown was born in Ohio, was graduated from Ober1in college, and for two years after he left college he was a school teacher. He entered the missionary field in North Dakota, and was active in the work for three years, when he went to California and prepared for priestly orders in the Episcopal church. He was assistant to the Rev. MT. Spalding at St. John s Church. San Francisco. and at the same time acted as head master of Trinity school. But his health failed him, and for the purpose of regaining it he went to southern California and then to Prescott
 He has only words of praise for the regiment of which he is a member, and is an enthusiastic admirer of Col cnel Roosevelt. His views as to the Cubans are strong, and he expresses himself forcibly on the subject. He says that they are "a worthless, indo- lent, good-for-nothing lot," but he is charitable enough to say that the con- dition may be the result of Spain's

 The master flagmaker of the Brook lyn navy yard is dead. The immediate cause of death was per:tonitis, but his
 illness was brought on by overwork.
 This was due to the great number of flags and ensigns he had been turning out for the government for war pur-
 poses. He was born in Ireland sixty four years ago, and had been in Uncle sam's employ for nearly thirty years.
 Flagmaster Crimmins had a speaking acquaintance with nearly all the high l officers of the navy, and one of the keepsakes which he prized was fine lister which Admiral Dewey gave to him just after the sinking of the Talla- poosa.

AUTHORS OF THE WAR.

Editor OF The Times:
ST.-YOur editorials denouncing the war
and the authors Of the war, though able
eloquent and pertinent, are, I think. shorn
of their force by the conclusion arrived
at. which makes you, though not, Of
course, intended, accessory after the act
and therefore particeps.
Reading your sound premises, namely
that the war was wholly uniustihable,
and is, therefore wholly unjust and
gross outrage upon Spain, one naturally
expects your conclusion TO be: Make
peace with Spain. with ample PREPARATION
for the injury done her"
But no. Your conclusion Is the direct
opposite Of your premises. Your premises
are an unjust and untustilable war. Your
conclusion IS: Repeat or aggravate the
original outrage until Spain is so eN-
hausted and Inundated that she SUBMITS
TO the loss of Cuba, the Philippines,
Puerto Rico and everything else. honor
included. that Spain holds valuable.
If one Of your friends. especially If
giant were outrageously TO assaI an
other if especially pgmy, even though
q stranger, you would not egg him on 10
continue the outrage until the other had
been beaten into submission and humili-
ated. No. you would at once say stop,
apologize and make amends. But when
the giant is the United States and the
plgmy is Spain. whom you acqut OF
blame. you cry out: Strikel Strike. Beat!
Beat, Stay and destroy until Spain lies
helplessly at our feet. shorn not only of
her possessions but OF her glory.
Pardon me for saying that The Times
in its attitude on the war with Spain IS
inconsistent. There are. I'm my opinion,
only two consistent positions.
One Is. The war s. inst therefore OrOSe-
cute II vigorously and increasingly to a
successful issue.
The other is: The war Is unjust, there
fore stop 1t ar once and make amends
TO the injured party.
The position Of The Times Is, how
ever neither. but Is this: The war Is UNI
just. but notwithstanding prosecute an
unjust war TO successful termination.
IL cannot be that The Times is afraid OF
fits premises. /. II. b.
Our correspondent misstates the posi-
ton Of The Times. We have no sympa-
thy whatever with Spain. The cause Of
