they had been unable to sumciently digest

Very tow exceptions they announced their
intention to come again and stay longer.
it Is harvest time now In Kansas and the
farmers are busily engaged with one of the
2n05t bountiful v1ieat crops over garnered
in the state. Later In the season , when the
- grain is out of the way , the People vII1 have
-
- both the leisure and the means to attend
the exposition and It is promised that they
vili come In tremendous numbers.
Aside 1rpm the ceremonies connected with
the formal dudlcatioii of the Kansas building -
ing the feature at the day was the presence
of the children who were admitted at a
nominal rate. As the day was more particularly -
ticularly for the benefit of the children of
Council Bluffs , South Omaha , an ( ithoso of
Douglas county outside of Omaha most of
theni were a little late in arriving and the
real childrcns crowd was not in evidouco
until afternoon. There were no exercises
on the part of the children as sufflelent
notice was hot given to permit the arrange-
flient of a program , and there was not the
organized attendance that would have been
expected if more time had been provided ,
Up to Monday the people who had charge of
- - - - - the children's day features hiul expected
-
that the date would not occur until later In
the month and the arrangements that had
b.oi partially perfected for Its celebration
could not be brought to a focus at such
short notice. So the boys and girls were
left to spend the day as they'pleased and
t
with so many things to distract their attention -
; tention they seemed to be just as welL

The means to the end arc lost in the

over his singers is just such as Is the net-

chorus last evening displayed a fldellty to

which raised their performance as far above
the ordinary people's song concert as music
is above noise.
Midway in the program the lagoon was
illuminated by the burning of a large amount
of Greek lIre and the club showed its appre-
elation by cheering for Omaha and for the
exposition. Thc program closed with the
singing of "America" by chorus and audience -
ence and once more music helped to amal-

in a common brotherhood the pilgrims from

LAST 1VlNiNG AT 'i'iII GIIOUNI)14 ,
( iritiL l"vnt Sif Sung in ( he Open Air
EIiJ'Sl by Mssny.
A great feast of song iii the open aIr , before -
fore an audience of 1,000 people , seated
amidst the classic beauties of the Main
court , with the spectacular effect of red
fire reflected from the gleaming , walls of
the stately buildings and the rippling sur-
taco of the lagoon , gave the exposition an
appearance of brightness and festivity
which tar exceeded the usual air of gaity
which pervades these beautiful precincts
when the soft twiiight fades from the west-
era sky and the inyriads of electric lights
shed their effulgent gleam from cornice ,
dome and pinnacle.
The announeer2lent that the famous Apollo
Musical club of Chicago , augmented by the
Exposition chorus of Omaha , was to sing in
the open air on the island in the lagoon
'was ' snmcient hint to ( lie music loving pub-
lie of Omaha and the surrounding country
that a great treat was in prospect. The
concert was announced to commence at
8:30 : o'clock , but as soon as the sludes of
evening tell the people commenced to as-
sembho in the Main court. waiting with an
air of oxpentancy for the nightly spectacle
which accompanies the turning on of the
electric lights. All noints about the Main
court have their advocates among tho'o who
extol the advantnges of their particular spot
as the best from which to view the scene
as the lights are lighted. Some prefer the
east end of the court among the curving
colonnades , while others prefer to sit on the
steps of the Government building and survey -
vey the scene from that point ; those who
assert that the space in the vicinity of
Twentieth street is the most advantageous
point are euually nulnerouH , and so it happens -
pens that the people are scattered as they
sit waiting or walk showly about impatiently -
tiently awaIting the moment ' when the
growing darkness shall be dispelled.
Strong as was the attraction announced
to occur on the island in the center of the
lagoon last night , it was not strong enough
to lure the nightly visitors front their ta-
vorito SPOtS and the exclamations of delight -
light which invariably greet the coming of
the light wore more forcible than usual.
The concert comniencecl shortly after the
Main court was illuminated and the people
loft their points of vantage to gather near
the bridge at Twentieth street in order to
enjoy the concert to the utmost.
The singers were seated on the crest of
the nohi bridge , being about ten feet
above the level of the spectators seated on
the wide walks between the lagoon and the
main hiuildlngs. Two hundred members of
the Apollo club , both men and women , and
the 100 members of the xposition chorus
constituted a chorus which could scarcely
be excelled in point of excellence. The
brass section of the Thomas orchestra
serveil as the instrumental portion of the
organization and Director Tomlins of the
Apollo club controlled the body with the
skill of a master.
No attempt was made to sing any classical -
cal music or any set pieces. but , on the contrary -
trary , the program w s made up of folk-
songs of every description , "the kind everybody -
body kflows , ' ' as one appreciative auditor
hiut It. The stirring war songs of the re-
hellion , "Annie Laurie , ' ' 'The Knight's
Farewell , " "DieVncht am Rhein , " "Abide
with Me , " and many more of the same
chinracter macla up an evening of song
which touchcd the hearts of the people and
tIm frequent outbursts of applause , coupled
with the intense silence during the singi.ng ,
told inoro forcibly than words the uppre-
ciation of the audience for the entertainment -
mont afforded.
When the concert was almost concluded
a signal was given and almost instantly
the entire main court wa ablaze with rcl
light. At intervals of about fifty feet nil
around the lagoon were nlaced high poles
with. colored fIre attached. Each alternate I
polo bore a red light and the intervening
lights were blue. The effect of this colored
lighting was-beautiful In the extreme. The
white walls of the buildings reflected the
colors and the result was a scene which
surpassed in beauty the magnificent effect
of tile electric lighting. Cheers and shouts
of delight greeteil the sight ami luany cx-
pressions of admiration were heard on
every side.
\Vhile the People were still admiring the
scene stirring strains of "The Star Spangled -
gled hianner" rose upon the air and the
audience cheered and applauded , many join-
log in ( lie singing. ' 'America" followed
anti again. the audience mauifcated its enthusiastic -
thusiastic approval , while the volune of
sound was swelled Into a mighty anthem
as ( lie grea ( crowd jniiied with heart and
voice in a imean of praise which mounted
unfettered to ( ho clear bijie vault of the
heavens.
The concert of the Apollo club will take
lace ( lila afternoon at the Auditorium instead -
stead of this evening. as originaihy pr-
ranged. This course was made necessary
by the fact that the club vIll leave for
Chicago on the evening train , The concert
wIll commence at 2 o'clock , the program
including selections frotii the "Messiah' ' and
"The Swan and the Skylark. "

about Caries' declarations than in Spain.
Re used the wide circulation of El lunpar-
cial at foreign agencies to float his program -

Spain except among advanced Catholics and
Carlists to give Canoe any chance of mak.
ing a show in Spanish pohitic. A promi-
neat Spanish general toils me :
"First it. is necessary for such tremendous
defeats to take place in the Philippines and
\Vest Indies as would make it possible for a
violent popular military movement in Madrid -
rid and Barcelona to sweep away not only
the existing government , but the regency
and the present monarchy. Thea a. pro-f
visional and probably a republican govern-
meat headed by Castelar with all repub-
henna and a few liberals would soon be confronted -
fronted by formidable Carhist risings in
north central and eastern Spain , backed by
the churches , friars and Jesuits , Civil war
would result , which would he long an l
bloody , but it is almost certain that eyentu-
ally both republicans anti liberals would
unite to assist the army , navy , middle
classes , socialists and working classc to'
defeat the Carhists. A reaction is equally
dreaded by all the modern elements of the
Spanish nation. Never In our history havd
our towns or our middle classes joined Car-
hism. Some otflcers zay desert to iio pretender -
tender , but our army is essentially antL-
Carlist. "
Iouu Carlos IN CnuutIouaN ,
NEW YORK , June 22.-fl , it. do la Cor-
tine , who is the accredited agent in the
United States of Don Curios , pretender to
the throne of Spain , has returned to this
country from Europe. Although of Spanish
birth , Senor Cortina is a naturalized citizen
of the United States. Senor Cortina told
a representative of the Herald that the eb-
ject of his trip to Europe was to meet Don
Carlos in lirussels. Ia this respect , ho said ,
his trip was successful. i-Ic declared that.
the crown of Spain six weeks ago was offered
to Don Caries and was refused , Don Carlos
preferring not to take upon himself the
responsibility of directing Spain's affairs in
the present crisis.
Senor Corna was asked for particuiars ,
but ho refused to reveal the source of thu
tender. He said he had absolute orders
front his chief to preserve secrecy. All he
would say was that the tender was thade
by an agent of one of the largest and most
iniluential political organizations of Spain.
It was made , he said , in the presence of
Senor Cortina and Don Caries' private see-
rotary and was accompanied with the us-
surance of strong niihitary support.
"Don Carlos refused to take the throne
at present , " said Cortiuia , "as any sensible
man sould have done. The people in control -
trol now have committed a colossal blunder
in engaging in this war and he will not be
involved in it. They must settle it themselves -
selves and when Spain is beaten and hu-
mihiated Don Curios rill step in and head
the work of reconstruction.
"The management of the- war has been
pitiful. The Cadiz fleet goes out. comes In
again , and once more starts. No one knows
where it is going and I do not believe the
naval authorities themselves do. Montejo
is abandoned to his fate in the Philippines
and Cervera left without aid in Santiago.
There is no sign of adequate preparatioti for
war and Spain's bravo sailors and soldiers
are sent to their death by incompetent rulers
at home.
Veyier Not us Carhist ,
"Weyier is not a Carhist-ho is simply a
Weylerist , and is not. great enough to lead
a party. lie belongs to no party and is
waiting to see who will take control of
affairs before tendering his partisanship.
The Carhist party is too great and too vow-
erful to need the aid of men with records
hike his. , .
"Stgasta and his party are flt only to - bd
thrown on the scrap heap. First Sagpsta'
was a republican and then a monarchist.
When Don Carlos reigns Sagasta will be
found seeking favor from thc now kng , "
Tluat ( lie next step in th evolutibn of
the Spanish government will be a ropubhic ,
Is the opinion of Senor Cqtina. "Vhen It
is known Don CarIes will not return at
present , " he said , "the p ople will turn to
republicanism , for they Inust get rid of the
Present dynasty. But thu. rep hhtc will not
last. The republicans are diyid d ineo seven
or eight factions and have no great leaders ,
Castelar , the lender of one of the actlons ,
has brains but no force. Ife Is uiot a natural
leather of men , Pi Margihl Is 'a ociahist
and Spain is not prepared to swallow social-
lam , . I
"The republic will go io pieCes and then
will be Don Carlos' opportunity. Spain will
welcome a strong prince , such us hue is , and
he will make a good king , lie Is ouie of
tue first statesmen and diplomats in
Europe and will be able to restore poor
Spain , ruined by misrule , to her proper
place among ( lie nations. " -
Speakag of the 'ar , Senor Corti a said :
"There can be no doubt as to the result ,
Spain cannot fight wkh the United States
and unust be beaten , The sooner the con-
diet ends the more pleased I will be , "

views of a prominent member of ( hue McKinley -
Kinley cabinet on the policy of the gov-
crurnent with regard to the i'hihlpiuinea atitI
Porte Rico in a imrivnte convcrsmitloui with
a friend , which are in substance as follows -
lows :
The policy of the government with regard -
gard to the Philippines has not yet been
decided on ammd is causing conBiderahle anxiety -
iety to time president , vIm is opposed to
their porinanemut possession. At time caumme
tinme it is commeidered immidesirablo to utflow
tluemmi to return under Spnnishi rule , for it
is believed that public sentiment would
condemn such a course. For hmitnself , the
minister declared , he favored the retention
of time Philippines only so , long after peace
Is established as wotuid enable the United
States to collect a suitable war indemnity
froun the customus revenues. Then if ( hue
iuusurgents demonstrated their ability to
mnalumtain it stable government the United
States might recognize their imidopemitlemmce.
If they failed , as most likely tiuey would ,
time islands aught be sold. Time presidomit
anti at least one member of the cabinet
are inclined tO give Englaumfi the prefer-
once'
Referring to Porto Rico time minister said
it might be possible thmat it would be per-
mnanentiy retained , owing to Its proximity
to time United States and Its value as a
strategic point. Still absolutely nothing
definite hind been decided recardina time
I'hilipplmmcs or Porto Rico or any other of
the spoils of war and the fate of the islands -
lands may yet be determioed by conditions
laid down itt the treaty of peace.

to say :
"Over a month ego AdmnirtI 'flcey lire-
pared to bonmbartl Maumila , At this juncture
a new factor \'as added to time situation.
The German consul , actimig on precise instructions -
structions which hail 'just arrived by the
German war ship Irene , strongly opposed a
bombardment. These iuistrutlons were clear
and categorical and emanated directly from
Emperor William's cabinet. It was then
that Admiral Dewey asked for reinforce-
incnts auth supplied Aguinnldo with arms ,
Vhile Gcrmany gathered 'a naval force the
luttention at Berlin was , if not to take pox-
sessiomi of Manila , to at least participate in
the landing on the ground that Admiral
Dewey's force wax not large enough to pro-
toOt the dermans.
"Captain General Augusti had informed
ills government of time situation , and several
interviews took place at Madrid with time
German ambassador , with the result that it
was decided that Augusti should appeal to
time foreign var ships , including the Amer-
leans , to rurotect time lives and property of
the citizens from time insurgents , It was an
indirect way of surrendering.
"There is no doubt Admiral von Dolde-
riiis has taken command of time forces
Iaumdetl , but had not taken possession in behalf -
half of Germany. But will he be wIlling to
allow his forces to re-embark when reinforcements -
forcements arrive ? The whole question lies
there. "
