SURGEONS PLASTER.

Although court plaster is useful in
protecting small scratches or abra-
sions of the skin from harm, it should
not be used over any considerable cut
or wound in process of healing. These
will heal much faster if simply cover
ed with bit of soft linen, held in
place at the ends with strips of sur
geon's plaster.

May SuccOr Americans I'm Case There
Is Riot.
KEY WEST, Fla. April 4.-Acting under
orders from Washington, Captain Samp-
son, commander Of the United States fleet
in these waters, sent the survey boat Bache
to-day from the Tortugas to Havana. Her
sailing orders were dispatched late this aft
ernoon over the new cable. and an hour
later the Bache was on her way to Cuba.
1t is assumed here that she goes to afford
a mode of safe egress for American citizens
should riot occur in Havana or war be de-
clared. The survey boat Blake, now in this
harbor, was also ordered to proceed to Ha-
vana, but these instructions were counter
manded before she got away. The Fern is
still at Havana, but her accommodations
are very limited.
Naval officers here chafe over the delay
and suspense in the present relations with
Spain.
The monitor Terror and the cruiser Mar
blehead coaled at the dock to-day. The
Edith Howe brand new government light
er, while discharging coal into the Indiana
during a heavy sea last night, was dashed
violently against the battle ship and had to
be towed in, and she now lies a semi-Wreck,
with 200 tons of coal still aboard:
A stupendouS amount OF work has been
accomplished here during the last thirty
days in coaling and provisioning. The ex-
penditures during the month of March due
to war preparations at the Key West naval
station amounted to $132, 900, of which $4,000
was for ammunition. This was distributed
among the ships and does not include 900
worth in store nor large shipments now en-
route.
The Iowa is to have protection of sand
bags, the prepare ton being now in prog
ress. The Detroit took the patrol duty to-
night.
Many families, fearing that war is at
hand will leave Key West tomorrow for
Miami.
Ensign Gherardi, now on the gunboat
Nashville will leave tomorrow to take
command of the tug Sioux, nosw at New
York.

dock here, received unexpected orders to

THE WIZARD" In FORM.
Wonderful Three-CushiOn Billiards
Against Ives.

CHICAGO, April 4.-The first big match
at three-cushion carom billiards was
brought off this evening and Jacob Schaef-
err defeated Frank Ives by score OF 125
to los. The match was for 500 side, and
though not played for any trophy, was
practically for the championship at this
style of game. Sixty points were playedAin
the afternoon and Schaefer reached that
point in his ninety-fourth inning, leaving
Ives at 46. The afternoon game was re-
ple.e with brilliant shots, the best being
a four-cushion effort by Ives, in which he
forced the first object ball off the table.
but made the count. In the evening ses-
sion Schaefer went after everything in
sight and lots of things that were not in
sight of any one else. More than that, he
got u lot of shots he went after and his
score grew with steadiness that was dis
couraging to the Young Napoleon" Jake's
high run of eight in the 18TH inning was
a cluster of beauties that fairly brought
down the house. He was the wizard Of
olden days and showed that he still has a
good deal 10 say in regard to the all-Tound
billiard championship. Ives played great bill
lizards, but luck was against him and ne
suffered from an epidemic of kisses. Jake
ended the game in the 169th inning with a
jump shot that sent his cue ball up to the
chandelier and yet it came back to the
table and made the count.

FORT MONROE Va, April 4--There is a

alleged discovery of the presence of Span

Fort Monroe whose post was nearest the
newly arranged esplanade for rapid fire and
disappearing guns noticed a man skulking
along the grassy side of the slope. He
challenged but received no answer. The
next night the same thing occurred, and the
sentry challenged and then fired. Blank
cartridges were in use, but since the in

were all armed with bail cartridges ana it'll

WAR AND PEACE.
The Only Conditions That Justify =
Resort to Arms.
New York Tribune


New York Tribune.
The mark and the curse of the murderer
Cain will unerringly be placed upon what
ever nation wahtonly makes war against its
neighbor. 1t is a monstrous thing to choose
war as a means of gaining what peace
would secure as well. 1t is a monstrous
rid Of evils, unless those evils are known
to be greater than those which war itself
would bring. And the magnitude of the
evils of war is such as to command the ut
most long-suffering before mourning them
The time comes, now and then, when war
is inevitable. That is only when every other
resort has been tried to the end and has
failed. The man who would deliberately
choose war before that time may pose as
a patriot. He is a traitor to the father
land. He may be known as a philanthropist.
He is an enemy of the human race.
Nevertheless. there is a time for war as
there is 8 time for peace. 1t comes to the
peace-loving nation when it has tried every
possible means Of avoiding war in vain, and
finds war forced upon 1t by its foe Then It
is fitting to enter upon the conflict, not with
q light but with a serene and confident
heart, finding in the very consciousness or
the wrong thus imposed upon it the amplest
justification for striking back with all the
might that righteousness can add to zeal.
If on the morrow, as now seems to many
probable. Spain shall force this wicked
thing upon us, the challenge will be ac-
and the campaign be pressed without re-
lenting to an issue that shall warn all the
rest of the world never again to wage un-
holy war against great Nation that loves
peace much but loves still more humanity,
and honor and everlasting justice.
