Tune the sun rose yesterday the children Of tene
ment houses scattered all over the CITY were get
ting ready for the exciting moment of their depart
ure' Inc city missionaries were gathering them in
from the tenements, more and more Of them were
trooping into the different missions and there was
such rush and hustle and tyfng I'm Of sca74,,
wardrobes in wrapping paper that the uninitiated
would surely have thought that a brigade for
emma was on the eve OF its departure Then the
little professions started out for the stations and
FERRIES and the first two OF them found their way
to the Grand Central Station. whence they started
on for St. Adams. VT. The train rolled out tust

All the rest of yesterdays outgoing fresh air
children met at the Erie ferry at Chambers-st
shortly after o'clock in the evening and "sU +ba
rest meant Isl children, for The Tribune Fresh
Air Fund sent in all 216 children to the country YES
terday. 1t may have been the exuberance OF all
these little people the fun that was IN stora
for them. or 1t may have been the natural hurried
and hunted way OF the commuter but the fact re-
mains that such commuters went through that
ferry house between and O'Clock last evening
had no show at all The fresh airs reigned su-
preme for one lively hour and the commuter
sprinting for his last boat who made connections
was rara avis. He generally fell sprawns
over numberless little arms and legs before he had
fairly entered the waiting room But at o'clock
the whole company trooped out to the boat shout
ing and laughing, and more there were quiet
and tranquility and absence OF pitfalls for the
sprtnting commuter. These 1s1 children went 70
