While it is only natural that the Germans should
be eager TO celebrate those glorious victories
upon which their Empire as well as much Of their
national grandeur are based, 1t Is to be feared
that the festivities in question may serve to re-
vive all those bitter feelings on the part OF their
gallant, If unfortunate, foes. which, although
natural during the years Immediately following
the conflict were believed and hoped to have
been In measure softened and assuaged by the
length Of time that has elapsed since then. The

AN ALL-EMBRACTNG CHARITY.

IT Is one OF the highest characteristics Of true
charity that 1t knows no limits Of place or cir
cumstance. Wherever need exists. there 1t has
work to do. 1t appeals to ALL 1t seeks to benefit
all. Such has been the spirit OF The Tribune
Fresh Air Fund through all Its benencent career,
and such Is the spirit that moves 1t today. A
more impressive object-lesson In catholicity OF
wclldong can scarcely be imagined than Is
afforded day by day In the lists Of contributions
TO the Fund. The number OF such gifts. their
range Of size. the places from which they are
sent. and the circumstances In which they are
made are often most touching and always in
structivc.
Look, for example. at yesterdays acknowl-
cdgmens, not by any means an exceptional list.
The first item Is I'm memory OF WHILE; love
and grief for lost child inspiring to good works
for the living children Of others. Further down
the list, -Four Old Maids" add their gift; though

LONGEVITY.

Button declared that one hundred years Of life
was what Providence intended for man, but the
intention for the most part has not been carried
out. Most men conduct themselves In a way
that makes even the Psalmist's allotment OF life
something impossible to be conferred upon them
Yesterday mornings dispatches brought news
from Homer, in the interior Of this State, Of the
death Of a citizen a. the age Of 1O1 years 6
months and II days. The item prompts spec,la-

nIeased. There Is no doubt that many Of his
Liberal friends were shocked at this conduct OF
his former followers, and It is quite probable
that some Of them have voted against the men
who did him such wrong.
The result of this overwhelming defeat upon
the party ono, led by Mr.. Gladstone Is not likely,
however, to be Christening and conservative. 1t
will probably make 1t more extreme In Its Rad
icalism There Is already much talk OF dropping
Liberalism as Whgsm was dropped many
years ago. and making new party. Should
that be done, the new party would be purely

"all sorts and conditions Of men,"
Equally wide is the range of hospitable homes
into which the children are received for their
vacations. Some can take q whole hOuseful

themselves, who can tell from how many differ

They may have nothing In common but their
needs So their benefactors may have nothing
In common but their desire to do good. What
more Is to be required? On the one side. want;
on the other side. supply. The union OF the two,
spontaneous and free, is perfect charity.

ABSOLYED FROM FASTING
Reported Papal Decree Abolishing
Lenten Abstinence by the Poor.
Laboring Classes May Be Excused
from the Observance of Fast Days
Other Than Fridays.

New York, July 7.-Rev Father Ducey
is authority for the statement that the
Pope has promulgated a decree absolviEg
poor people and working people from the
observance OF al days of abstinence in
the year except Fridays, even during Lent.
A rumor that such a decree was in exist
ence has been in circulation for some
time, and Father Ducey says that the
document has been forwarded to the
bishops Of the United States and has been
promulgated in the West
Speaking OF the decree, Father Ducey
said Many OF the eccleslastics in this
country have felt for years that the
burden Of denial placed on the shoulders
and COnsCienccs of the struggling and
working poor was more than hardship.
almost martyrdom.
Il have not seen the official document
sent TO the bishops of the United States
but this information came to me about
two months ago from most trustworthy
Roman correspondent
1t has seemed to me for years that
this legislation in favor of Gods hard
working people was most necessary. What
a hardship to ask OF men and women whose
fare is always meager. doubtful and un.
certain 10 practice denial that robs them
OF their strength and unfits them for the
proper discharge OF their duties and labor
when the comfortable and well-to-do and
the rich and luxurious, fcasting sumptu
ously every day, find fault, as / have
known them TO do, wish the hardships OF
the holy season OF Lent
Father LavclIe, of the arChbishop's resi-
dence, says that the rumor is absurd and
was manufactured in New York
