INTERVENTION.
Senator Thurston Says 1t Is Time
for This Country to Act.

OMAHA. March 21--"If the time for
the Intervention of the United States
in the affairs of Cuba is not here nov,
il will never come" said Senator
Thurston TO a reporter This morning
I wired Senator Allen to announce that
/ would speak on the Cuban question
in the Senate next Thursday"
The Senator says that the only solu-
tion of the trouble is intervention, IN
less the people of the United States
want to look on and see the work OF
starvation, already so far advanced,
completed The reconcentrados are
absolutely without hope, and if the
death lists in any part of the island
are decreasing it is only because the
material for starvation to work upon
is giving out. All that the reconcen-
trados can now do, with their homes
and implements destroyed by fire, their
little farms devastated and growing III
weeds, their stock driven off to furnish
food for the Spanish soldiers, and
themselves emaciated and diseased, is
to remain in their pens with look
of quiet despair and take the little
food that they can get, sent by the
charity of the United States.
1T is perfectly true" says the Sen
ator. that the insurgents practically
have the whole island. All that the
Spanish hold is Havana, and even while
the Congressional party was there
there was fighting in the suburbs OF
that city
Senator Thurston was asked what Ell
feet the Intervention would have IN m
creasing the volume Of the insurgent
movement He said that it would nave
some effect in that direction, for then
the Cubans generally would rise ana
declare themselves.

WAR EXCITEMENT.
Gradually Dying Out at Key
West, Florida.

KEY WEST Fla.), March 21.-With-
out much apparent reason the war ex-
cltement here seems gradually dying
out. The natives of the island are grow
ing accustomed to the sight of moving
armed and armOred ships, and the cry
of riot in Havana has been relegated to
wolf category. The outward and
visible signs of preparation for con-
flict are still present, but the Juror
which their novelty created has died
away, although the natives are stirred
every now and then from wild rumOrs.
Situated as Key West is, on the Very
edge Of the United States, it is small
wonder that there is great interest as
TO what would happen if war should
ensue between Spain and the United
States. An officer permanently located
here, in summing up the uses of this
island in case of war said:
las far as can see Key West
would be almost utterly useless to the
United States in case of war. 1t guards
no inlet and no outlet The recently
received consignments of torpedoes,
and the two new sand batteries will
make it a fairly good place from de-
fensive point of view but unless it is
protected by a fleet there is little to
prevent such a ship as the Vizcaya
Smelling it and remaining out of harms
way. As a coaling station Key West
is practically useless, because the har-
Dor is not deep enough to permit the
entrance of any of our big ships Old
Fort Tyler, the big red brick relic of
the civil war, occupies projection of
the island, but as was to be expected, of
course, is practically dismantled.
AT Dry Tortugas the same condi-
lions prevail. There is Fort jefferson
which is over a mile in circumference
and is without a garrison and out of
date. 1t would be impossible to main
tain a garrison at that fort. AS a har-
Dor Tortugas is all right. but for strate-
sic purposes 1 fail to see it's available
ity''
Rear-Admiral Sicard has frequently
said to this correspondent that he re-
GREETED the inability to get the big
ships into Key West harbor, and be-
sides coaling them at Tortugas with
far less trouble, he could then have
them at his call within a moments no.
tice. The only two big ships here. the
New York and Iowa, are obliged to lie
six or seven miles out from land Dry
Tortugas, where the Indiana, Texas
and Massachusetts lie, is over sixty
miles from Key West
These statements naturally suggest
the idea that the concentration of such
a large fleet around Dry Tortugas and
Key West is doubtful policy With nat
ural caution, Admiral Sicard failed to
state the fact that the Government is
making strenuous efforts to prepare
Key West for emergencies. and is en-
ploying every resource to fit this island
for the only strategic position it could
rightly fill, that of a coaling station.

NEW ORLEANS AND ALBANY.
Secretary Long Renames the War
ships Bought From Brazil.

WASHINGTON, March 2l.-Secre-

honor of the principal city of Louisi-
ana. Telegraphic instructions were sent
to the naval officer in command of the
vessel. who Will take immediate steps
to carry them into effect.
New Orleans was chosen as the name
OF the warship acquired from the sister
Republic OF South America for the rea-
son that Louisiana is one of the very
few States of the Union not represent
ed in the navy at this time. There
was quite a contest among several 9TH
er cities to have the new warShiD
named in their honor. Albany, N. Y;
Providence r. l., and Buffalo, n. Y,
advanced their claims quite strenu-
ously.
Secretary Long has rechristened the
cruiser Abreuall, recently purchased
from the Brazilian Government. and
hereafter she will be known as the Al
bany. in honor of the Capital Of the
Empire State.

And you raise hand to strike it,

And again you feel quite happy
Till II finds that polished bald spot on ysur head
Then you simply get ferocious,
Fit for anything atroclous
And you feel inclined to raise particular Ned.

Tries to make the insect scurry
But upon your chin he lets the razor drop:

And, in fiery indignation,
Make vow you'll never again go to that shop
