War Proceeding Auspiciously.
Our war with Stniiii is not a name
got up for the popular entertainment
and ti stimulate the sale of sensa
tional newspapers It is not a foot
ball f;ame provided for the delecta
tiuii -f piping crowd, about lliiring
bulletins Military movements are
not iilaimed and undertaken in order
ti furnish an unremitting supply of
exeitint; matter for Huniing "extras."
We say tills because these news
papers are clamorous that the war
should be fought for their boneiit
solely. They are demandiii; that
dranmtir situations, sea lights, bom
bardments, invasions, and Mingiiin
ar land conflicts, shall follow each
oilier in rapid succession, in order
that they may keep their biggest
type in ceaseless employment.
'Strike at once !" they cry out :
"Kvery day's delay in openingiire is a
day gained for Spain !" "Open on
Mum i and run up the Stars and
Stripes !''
If it was only a mimic war in which
we were engaged, a scene in a melo
drama !) a tlieati-e. the spectators
might resent properly the slow move
ment of the stage machinery, and
-n ..lit in impatience or derision if
tlie I'lnunx of catastrophe was not de-
xel.n-d as soon as they expected.
Being a real and serious war, how-
exer involving actual peril to tho
liws,f thousands of men, who xvill
ie. r In- sacrificed simply to all'ord a
spi-i ia. le. it moves solely toward an
e ,.I .( serious importance, xvithout
rt ,riml to the requirements of sensa
tion S.i far. it has proceeded with all
possible rapidity. The blockading
squadron moved at once to Cuba. It
is true that Admiral Sampson has not
jet 'opened on Morro Castle and run
up tlie Stars and Stripes," for he does
not mean to waste powder. Instead
of accepting the wild theory that
"every day's delay in opening lire is
u day gained for Spain," the govern
moot is acting on a full understanding
of the fact that ex'ery day's delay
necessary for preparation is a gain
for our campaign and a manifest loss
to .Spain. We can well afford to wait
until tlie time for attack is ripe,
and impoverished Spain is weakened
correspondingly. Morro Castlu will
bo of no use to us until wo have at
hand the force to occupy Havana.
Merely shutting off supplies from the
Spanish army by the Cuban blockade
serves our purpose sullleiently while
we wait, and meanwhile arms and
ammunition and other supplies can
be lauded at some other port for the
''i ban army, better fitted to conduct
m litar operations there than any
I'uiild send, even if wo had an
ii i. cpiate force available. All xvaste
f blood in war is criminal, however
-"ntifying it might be to sensational
lrnals. No American soldiers will
'. sent to Cuba until they are really
i.t -ded there and until they can re
main securely under the protection
.f our Hoot. Dangerous risks xvill
n it be taken simply to provide spec
tacular oiroots for howling news
papers. The war will procoo'l under the
calm direction of soldiers and sailors
who are Intent on viutory only, and
in uccordauco xvith xvell-matiired
plans. They are steadily tightening
the cord which will strangle Spain,
a: ul no outcry of reckless and con
scienceless newspapers xvill utTeut
their nerves and induce them to de
part from their purpose toaccompllsh
the result without sacrificing use
lessly u single life.
Everything is moving auspiciously
for the American arms, uud-tho end

HOW TO FIND OUT
Fill a liottlo or coiiiiiioa glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sedi
ment or settling inilk'iiti's 1111 unhealthy
condition of the kidneys. When urino
tains linen it is oviilcnco of kidney
trouble. Too fixiiuent desire to urinate or
pain in the hack, is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder nro out of
older.
WHAT TO DO.
There Is comfort in tho knowledge so often
expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-knot,
tlio great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish
in relieving pain in tlio hack, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of tho miliary pas
sages. It corrects inability to hold urine
and scalding p.dn in passing it, or bad elleets
following uso of liquor, wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled lo get up many times during tho
night to uiioate. Tlio mild and tho ex
traordinary ell'eet of Swamp-knot Is soon
oralized. It stands tlio highest for its won
derful cures of tlio most distressing cifee.
If you need a medicine you should have tlio
best. Sold by druggists, piieo fifty cents
and 0110 dollar. You may have a sample
liottlo and pamphlet both sent fico by mail,
upon receipt of three two cent stamps to
cover cost of postago on tlio bottle.

The Steamer Paris Sighted by the Ma
jestic Last Monday,
Washington, April 27. Conditions in
Washington are rapidly settling down
to thoso of actual war. Notices came
to the state department from the four
quartets of the globe yesterday show
ing that the nations as a rule ar pro
pated to assume an attitude of strict
neutrality as between the United States
and Spain In the present struggle. In
most cases they were In answer to the
identical note sent out on Monday by
the state department to ail United
States embassies and legations In
structing them to Inform the govern
ments to which they were accredited
that war has existed since April 21.
The president Issued a proclamation
during the day laying down rules as
to the seizure of prizes, and the result,
It Is believed, will be the release of
some of the ships already captured,
though It will be for the prize courts to
determine In each case whether the
conditions under which the ship xvas
captured are such to warrunt release.
The impression prevails that the Uuena
Ventura, the tlrst on the list of prlzeB,
will be deolaied no prize. The case of
the Panama, whose seizure was report
ed yesterday, Is more complicated, ow
ing to the fact that, while otherwise
exempt, tho ship was reported to have
contained supplies for the Spanish
army In Cuba, which are contraband.
However, It may be said that xvhlle
the settlement of these questions xvill
he left to the courts the administration
believes the greatest liberality should
be shown In the application of the laws
where a x'essel Is not contraband or at
tempting to run the blockade. That is
shown In the liberal terms of the proc
lamation Itself, by which the prize
courts must be guided. It Is noted also
that the administration has not been
deterred by any criticism In congress
from formally pledging Itself to the
nations of the world to refrain from
privateering and abide by the decla
ration of Paris of ISM.
All Our C'nnsulH Hnvo Left Spnln.
So far as is known all the United
States consuls have made their xvay
safely out of Spain. Consul Fay, at
Daula, has reported to the department
from Lisbon, Consul Howen, at Darcc
lonit, f 1 0111 I'arls, and Consul Carroll, at
Cadiz, and Consul Hnrtleman, at Mal
aga, from Gibraltar. The department
has assured itself that the others are
safe.
Secretary Sherman retired flnallyyes
terdny from the position of secretary of
state, and his successor was continued
in tlie person of Judge Day. John Has
sett Moore was confirmed in Judge
Day's place. The latter Is expected to
1 etui n to Washington. Secretary Day
entered upon the duties of Ids office to
day.
The army reorganization bill became
a law during the day, and the war do
partment olllelals hax-e begun to devise
the bBt means of carrying out the pur
jieses of the net which will lesult in an
Increase of the regular army to more
than 00,000 men.
In the war department preparations
went on with censelesB eneigy for tho
organization of the volunteer army. All
tho oiljcers were detailed who are to be
sent to the various states and tent
torles to mustor the guardsmen into
the service of the United States. The
Plans for the full organization of the
urmy were also perfected. To provide
ofllcers for the regular army and vol
unteers, Secretary Alger ordered tho
assignment to duty of nil H !-
the West i'olnt MlTltnry academy xvho
xvould in the ordinary course of events
have gradunted In June.
Commodorn llriiiir.ilii Must Itomnln.
In fact, It Is becoming very hard for
Secretary Long to retain In the service
of the department tlie ofllcers xvho are
absolutely required In view of their
earnest desire to go to the front. A few
days ago, for Instance, Commodore
Uradford, chief of theequlpnient bureau,
tendered his resignation of that place
and asked to be given a warship.
After consldetlng the matter for n day
or two the secretary yesterday wrote
the commodore a letter highly com
mending the desire for active service,
but pointing out the fact that his ser
vices nte especially needed nt this time
in his present capacity, saying It would
be extremely dllllcult, if not Impossible,
to fill his place.
The greatest anxiety was shown at
the navy department for news from
the blockading squadron. Notwith
standing the frequent reports that
came from two unnfllclal sources of en
gagements between the Meet and the
shore batteries, 110 word of confirma
tion cnnic officially. The three prizes
reported yesterday to have been seized
by the licet were not leferred to In the
otllclnt dlspntehes, but the press reports !
of the seizin es weie received with the
greatest satisfaction by the ofllcers of
the department, who In some cases did
not hesitate to declare their envy of
their more fortunate brother officers
ivltli the tlect.
Among the orders issued yesterday
was one directing Captain A. P. Ma
linn, the author and xvcll known au
thority in naval tactics, to report for
fluty ut the navy department. Captain
Mnluin Is a retired olllcer, and xvill ue
assigned a position on the strategy
board. Probably he will replace Ad
miral Walker, for xvhom the president
and Secretary Long cherish tlie high
est regard on account of his profes
sional ability, and who Is to be assign
ed to duty of the highest Importance
In the immediate future. More than a
dozen retired officers were called Into
the service by Secretary Long yester
day. Upon tho recommendntlon of Captain
Lemly, judge advocate general. Secre
tary Long yesterday directed the re
lease from a lioston nax'al prison of 28
sailors. The men have been In prison
for x'arlous Infractions of military law,
and the department believes that con
ditions warrant their restoration to ac
tive serx'Ice.

Relief from any ailment can

erficial, and does not reach the cause of

This explains why those afflicted with Catarrh
meet with so much discouragement. Though
they faithfully take the usual treatment of sprays,
washes, and numerous inhaling: mixtures, and
pass through the summer without much dis
comfort, as" soon as cold weather returns, they
find themselves more firmly in the crip of the
disease than ever. Such results could hardly be expected if the
proper treatment had been given.
Everyone who has had experience with Catarrh will readily
admit that it is one of the most obstinate of diseases; it is easy
to see., therefore, that it is deen-seated. and that nn remeHv
1 he only known cure lor Catarrh is a
real blood remedy, one which gets at the seat of
the disease the cause of the trouble and forces
it from the system.
The right remedy for Catarrh is Swift's Specific,

"Reading of many similar cases being cured by

THE HAWAIIAN SEIZURE STORY.

The Hawaiian Star of April 13 had
this to say regarding the flag raising
story!
"While the rumored seizure of these
Islands by the United States as n coal
ing station, which xvns referred to In
The Star, bos not taken place, there
are those who believe that it will take
place, und at 110 djstnnt date. It was
expected that those high In authority
would scout the Idea, for It Is not
usual lo confess to such state secrets,
but because the llag has not been rais
ed does not signify anything,
"There may be something significant,
lowever. In the fact that nil olllcer of
the United States ship Hennlngton
went through the city a few days ago
and tried to buy n number of Americnn,
Hags. He succeeded In getting one
large one from n denier, and said bo
would take a half dozen or more If he
could get them. When told that an
order could bo filled quickly at San
Francisco he replied that he must have
the Hags at once, and could not wait
for a steamer. Small flags were not
wonted. It Is accepted as a certainty
that the Islands will bo seized as soon
as war Is declared."
The lumots that Iirltlsh Consul Ken

to declare neutrality at once has been
disposed of by Minister Cooper, xvho
states that Mr. Kenny has made no
such requect.
