OVER THE ATLANTIC
LATE SESSION or PARLIAMENT
NOT FAVORABLY REGARDED.
ParisinnS Getting Ready to Make
the Car at Home While in the
French Capital.

London, Aug. 1.-THE tone of the con-
servative press in commenting on the
results OF the session of parliament, just
closed, is sorroWful, ratneI than eXultant.
while the liberal papers contrast with a
great deal of JUNCTION the formidable list
of measures proposed, and the few which
have become laws. The Times, for IN
stance, opened its retrospect with these
words:
The loss of the chief measure of the
year throws a shadow of disappointment
over the session"
The Speaker, radical, sums up the SEES
sion as being a disastrous failure.
1t is learned that the release of The
Irish political prisoners is due to Healy's
support of the Irish land bill.
Advices received here from Christiana
indicate that King Oscar has made him
self very unpopular with the NorWeglans
during the tour of the country just com
pleted. During the singing of the ma
tional anthem, King Oscar noticed
peasant who mad inadvertently omitted
to don his hat. The king called the man
to him and knocked off his hat, exclaim-
ondhjem an enthusiastic crowd welcomed
the king and showered bouquets into his
carriage. Some of them happened to
strike him.. and his majesty angrily stop
ped the carriage and ordered the bouquet
throwing to cease. He also hurled back
several bouquets which fell into the car
riage. The NorWegians were greatly dis
pleased at these incidents, and the lib
erals give great prominence to them.
The car will leave st. Petersburg in
will include Paris. President Faure Ind
! his wife will go to ChesbeOrOugh and en-
bark on the ironclad Dupuy de LONE, IN
order to meet the car in the channel
The French government offered him the
! first floor of the foreign ministry, which
was to be lavishly upholstered, but the
czar declined, preferring to stop at the
Russian embassy, on the plea that he
had to transact affairs of the empire on
Russian soil The cars visit to Paris
has not yet been decided upon but will
include a grand banquet and reception
at the Elysee palace, a gala performance
at the opera, Nominations and a big re-
view of the troops. The French newspa-
pers promise to present the car with
magnificent sword of honor.

lieyed, that the Bulgarian cabinet has
resigned, T.,

Humanitarians who have at heart

water and water bags, food and proper

town prices. And this lookout for
their comfort would be enough to
