SUFFERING CHILDREN.

As the gentle breath Of Spring ceases to
cool the brow and the hot air Of Summer Ia
felt in its stead THE EVENING WORLD nat
uraIly bestirs itself for the care OF the tiny
sufferers OF the heated term. It will soon
begin to organize its corps Of physicians,
who shall minister like angels Of mercy to
these neglected waits OF the tenement
houses.
The experience OF past Summers has
shown thoroughly both the amount Of good
accomplished by this organized relief for
these children of the poor and the ready
liberality with which men, women and chill
dren respond to q call for assistance from
them for this worthy cause.
There should be no delay in this good
work. When the Summer comes and
begins to mark its victims for ono OF
another malady, peculiar to their tender
years, the corps Of Free Doctors should be
already in readiness to leap into the breach
and fight the foe.
The readers OF THE EVENING WORLD will
show the same spirit this year which they
have shown in past ones. Tho conditions
remain the same. This charity Is one sc
beautiful, 80 thoroughly human and funda
mental that it appeals to every generous
heart. Subscriptions will soon be In order
Let them be promptly given.

A BAPTISM OF DUST,

The merry breezes of May Sunday found
plenty of playihings readt to their touch in
New York's streets and avenues, yesterday.
They were the plies of dirt swept up several
days ago from the thoroughfares which
Mayor GRANT said were clean. Thesc piles
as they stood were eloquent contradictions of
the Mayors claim, and they became more SO
after the breezes began to frolic with them.
Not even the brooms Of New York women
who might follow the lead Of their Cincin.
natl sisters, who swept up several blocks in
the Porkopolis The other day, would suffice
to ward of such baptism of dust as those
breezes stirred up.
And 1t is interesting, indeed, to reflect
that the taxpayers money paid for this
dusty baptism. Employees of the so-called
Street Cleaning Department laid up the
piles OF dirt, but no cartmen came TO take
the piles away The wind scattered them
and they must again be swept up, probably
to the same end MS before. This is beau
tiful system of aiding the wind in it's play
but 1t is not cleaning the streets.
