FRESH AIR SOCIETY.

The Children's Fresh Air Society of
Baltimore did noble work last year
in sending sixteen hundred children
of the city for a couple of weeks outing
in the country, and an effort is being
made by the same society to do still
more this year. This work can be
accomplished only by the cooperation
of the people in the country who have
temporary homes for these little ones
This is a work of charity that is most
commendable, and no doubt many
Christian homes in Hartford will be
opened this summer to those children.

SEATS BEGGING FOR BUYERS.
London Spectators Set Their Hopes
Too High in Preparing for
the Procession.

London, June 21.-In spite of the enor-
nous crowds in London. seats to view the
procession tomorrow are almost begging
for buyers. Many of the city syndicatcs to-
dav are distributing seats gratis among
their disappointed shareholders. The IA
pacity of the omnibus companies, which
Yesterday trebled the rate Of their fares,
has also had setback. and they in many
cases to-day reduced prices to the regular
rates.
Owing to the recent explosion of bombs
in Paris and the arrival in England of many
foreigners known 10 be connected with an
archy. the Scotland Yard authorities have
been very active. The whole route of the
Drocession tomorrow has been closely ex-
amined, and especially the bridges and the
stands in their vicinity. Socialist and an
archist leaflets treating the jubilee In
threatening terms have been issued. One
of them describes the queens reign as six
~ years of cowardly wars for gold on igno-
rant and defenseless savages, and as ''an
Increase of the wealth OF Great Britain
but not for the mass of working people

A JUBILEE ODE.
Alfred Austin Not the Only Britisher
Moved to POesy by the
Anniversary.

London June 21.-The Times this morning
publishes a jubilee ode from the pen of Sir
Lewis Morris. 1t begins:
Rejoice: give thanks for all the centuries
Since first our little island crescent
A feeble radiance. woke the waning skies
To raise in full-orbed glory
The ode proceeds TO describe the birth
and growth of the empire until the coming
of the present reign, and then says;
'Ne'er in our crowned republics story yet,
or all that men remember or forget,
No reign of three-score years of king or
queen.
The poet, after picturing the queens life
and the gathering of her subjects from all
quarters of the globe to do her honor, says:
'',This pomp makes history long years 10 be,
When all our brave Victorian company
Beyond the circuits of the stars has gone,
The echoes Of this memorable day,
Not wholly done or fled away,
Shall still go widening, widening on,
Till Britain with new fires OF union CLOVIS"
The ode concludes:

The reverence to womans blameless
And bless with voice and heart this fair.

YESTERDAYS HOUSE SESSION.
Bill Passed, Under n Special Rule, Ap-
propriatIng 100000 for Dry
Dock Repairs.

Washington. June 21.-After the approval
of the journal. the house, under a special
rule, adopted a bill appropriating 100000
for the repair of dry dock No. 3, at New
York, which recently was discovered to be
leaking badly.
Mr.. Latimer. Democrat, Of South Caro-
lima. asked unanimous consent TO have con-
sidered a bill declaring n state capable Of
entirely controlling the liquor traffic.
This Mr.. W. A. Stone. Republican. of
PENNSYLVANIA, said was an Outgrowth OF
local fight in South Carolina In which the
courts had made decision and was not
proper matter for consideration by the
house. He objected to its consideration.
Mr. Dingley. Republican, of Maine, from
the committee on ways and means, pre-
scnted a favorable report on a joint resolu-
tion providing that foreign exhibitors at
the Omaha exposition in 1898 may bring to
this country labOrers TO prepare and have
charge Of exhibits. Two amendments pro-
vide that the secretary of the treasury
shall fix the number of laborers to enter
the country and that they should leave the
United States within three months from
the termination of the exposition.
On motion OF Mr.. Dingley, the house then
at 1:jG, adjourned until Thursday.

SPANISH LIBERALS FOR PEACE.
VIII Issue n Manifesto Declaring for
n Radical Change in the
Cuban Policy.

London, June 22.-The Madrid correspond
ent of the Standard says: THE Spanish
Liberals have adopted an attitude which
will probably create a profound sensation
both here and in the United States. but
which is little calculated to improve the
situation.
AT a meeting of ex-ministers of the Lib
eral party on Sunday, SenOr Sagasta made
an energetic speech denouncing the home
foreign policy of the premier and his con-
duct during the recent crisis, which, Sa-
gasta insisted. had led the people to criti-
else the decision of the crown.
THE meeting resolved to issue a mani
festo declaring that the Liberals would per-
sist in abstaining from all relations with
the government so long as the Duke of
Tetuan is retained in the cabinet. The man
ifesto will also assert that the Liberals
were the authors of the first colonial re-
form scheme in 1894 but curtailed il in 1885
in order to obtain the support of the Con-
servatives.
THE manifesto will characterize the pro-
posed reforms of CanoVaS as inadequate,
ana suggest the replacement of Captain
General Weyler by a governor who will
continue the war in accordance with civil
lied practices; the stopping of the reign of
terror and devastation of property in Cuba,
and the appointment of a civilian as royal
commissioner, with full powers, distinct
frcm the military authorities, to execute
reforms of the widest autonomy I'm political,
administrative economical, tariff and leg
islative matters compatible with the pres
erv6tio of the imperial sovereignty.
The manifesto will promise to go very
far in the direction OF a sacrifice of Span
ish commercial interests and of sparing
burden of the colonial war debts in order
