All of the pubiic and industrial schools are now closed for the annual vacations, during which time thousands of chil- dren willbe playing in tne streets and gutters, | The class of children who profit by these iree ex- cursions belong entirely to the tenement houses Population, and they bave no other play- ground thanjthe hot and dnsty streets, Compelled to endure the terrible heat of summer as best tuey May, the tree excursions afford them at least one day of genuine and healthiul pleasure on the Rudson or the sound, and in green and delightful groves faraway {from the city. During the past vhree seasous the Free Excursion Fund has ep- abied nearly sixty-four thousand boys and girls of venuer age to leave the scorcniuy pavements of New York and visit rural scepes that otherwise they would never see or enjoy. fi The not weatner that now prevails calls the fund into active operation, and the t:ustees tnereiore earnestly ask for contributions to enable them to give picnics to the street children.

A deliberate and premeditated murder, accord- 12g to the open confession of the murderer, was perpetrated last night at Aariem, tne victim being Frederick Lubow, aged thirty-six years, of 106th street and avenue A, and his assailant John F. Bucking, a teamster of Harlem, aged thirty-eight. It appears that a close intimacy bas existed be- tween Bucking and a Mrs, Hennessy, residing on First avenue, near 123d street, since the death of the latter’s husband, which occurred aboat five years ago. Last winter Lubow became acquainted with Mrs, Heanessy, and paid soveral visits to her residence, This seemed to anger Bucking, who threatened Lubow with dire consequences unless he ceased calling on her. Whether the threats were effective in keeping Lubow away since that time does not transpire, oat yesterday arternoon he calied on Mrs. Hen- messy and took tea with her, Buoking’s wife was present at ihe time and remained in the house until six o'clock, when she left for home, About ten minutes afterward Bucking catied, and finding Lubow with Mrs. Hennessy, hastily withdrew. Going to Mr. Klaff, a neighbor, he re- quested the loan of a pis'ol, saying he wished to shoot a mad dog. His manner was cool and col- lected, ana Kila, without hesitation, nanded him a very larze six-chamber revolver. Backing, armed with the weapon, returned to Mrs, Hen- nessy’s house, and, AIMING THE REVOLVER. AT LUBOW, fired, the bali entering Just velow the right ear and passing completely through the head in an almost straight line, Luhow, on being shot, fell to the floor, and the murderer, without uttering a word, left the scene, and, approaching Oiicer Van Orden, of the Twellth precinct, woo was patrolling In the vicin- ity, delivered himsell up, saying, “ARREST ME, I NAVE SHOT A MAN,’? On betne tak nto the poitce station on 126th street Bucking stated to sergeant Rooney tnat he was giad be had shot the man, that he tn- tended to kill him and hoped there was no chance for his recovery. A LLERALD reporter called upon the prisoner in bis cell last night, The man was exceedingly Violent and prorane, and repeatedly expressed bimseif as glad that he had snot Labow. When askea why he Nad committed tue deed he replied, “because he geserved to ve killed.” He took wis situation lightly, and speak- ing of ‘he punishment for nis crime ridiculed in profane language the {dea of veing hanged, White talking Im this strain his wife ar- rived, bringing him some Coffee and sandwiches, He eagerly took them through the burs ot his cell, and, uttering an tmprecation, dashed the retresn- ments to the door, saying, “Why im helt didn’t you bring me some tovacco.”” ’ Her tearful prorestation that she did not know | he wished any only made him more angry. Alto- ether, he acted more like a beast than a human eng. AN OLD SOLDIER. Mrs, Bucking stated to the reporter that ner | un ortunate nusband nad served fourteen years | im tue army, ten in the reguiurs and four tn the volunteers, being promcted in the latter service near the close of the war to tne rank of Captain, and assuming command of Company M, Fifteenth New York hesvv artillery. Since the war he has nad a teamster for a lumber firm. in appearance Bucking is a small, wiry, nervous German, with sandy side whiskers and dark brown hair, Dr. Demerest dressed the tojuries of Lubow and pronounced them probably fatal, after which he ‘Was removed to the Ninety-ninth street Reception | Hospital. Ata late hour last night he was living, but was not expecied to survive more than a few hours, He was also a driver by occupatio! a bore a good character. DEMOORATIO DISCIPLINE.

A resolution was passed by the association expelling from its ranks a number of v THE HERALD’S LIGHTNING EXPRESS. {From the Rochester Union, July 6.) THE BSBALD TRAIN—FAST TIME FROM NEW YoRE. The train which is understood to be chartered by the New Youe HERaLp to deliver its Sunday issue along the live of the New York Central ang Huason River Railroad made its first trip on Sun. day morning. The train consisted of one baggage and two passenger cars. There was quite a num. ber of passengers, most of whom took the trip merely to gratity @ desire for @ ast ride, Quitea crowd gathered at the depet to witness the ac complishment of the featand the HERaLps sold Tapidly atten cents each, This issue 1s furnished from tbe office of publication at six cents per copy avd the news dealers along the line of the road pay seven cents. The enterprise of delivering tt in this way te looked upon as something stupend- ous, ang, indeed, it 1s consideraole of a feat 40 far 4s the running of the train is concerned, {From the Rochester Democrat, July 7.] By running a Sunday express train, the New York HERALD is evidently after a third term of popularity. (From the Utica Herald, July 5,) The announcement that the NEw YORK HERALD would send out tis Sunday edition by a special wain yesterday morning attracted @ large num- ber of citizens to the depot, Tne special lest N York at 2:30 P, M. It loss time on the Hudson River road and left Albany five minutes late, or at 6:20 A. M. It reached Utica at 8:31. The tra: consisted of engine 284, Sam Austin, engineer, ono bnewapiper car and two well filed coac! Fifteen or twenty passengers got off at this sia uon, Superintendent Tillinghast, of the Central road, and one of the reporters o! the HenaLp rode from Poughke psie on the engine The latter Jooked like @ coal heaver wnen he got of bere, 4s a financial enterprise the HeRaLp's lightning express promises to be a success, The receipts for papers a8 fur as Syracuse were $600; for jares $500, making @ total of $1,100, which is understood to be tue price paid for the traim irom New York to Buffalo, The news agents will al) douvle their orders this weex.- Tickeis are sold at the HERALD office, in New York, and can be bought on thétraiv, No extra charge is made to Passengers, but the number will be limited, About 150 copies of the paper were delivered te agents bere, and they had applications for twice that number alter the supply was exhausted. The train carried 35,750 papers, of which 18,000 were said to be for stations vetween New York and Buffalo, At places where the train did not slop the packages were thrown off by the brake- men. The train leit Utica like a shot out of a gun at 8:37 A. M,, or :wenty-two minutes late; Oneida at 9:09, and reached Syracuse at 9:45, or twenty three minaotes bevind card time, Engine No, 110 drew it from that point and took it into Bafale at 12:55 P. M.,or four minutes abead of time, Superintendent Henry continued on to Uhicage with the papers for that city. [From tne Chicago Tribune, July 6.) An exhibition of enterprise by the New Yore HERALD is not 80 extraordinary a thing that it deserves very particular mention, and tt is there- fore rather for the tuformation of the public than for the benefit of the HERALD that we allude to the last instance of the kind. This is the running of a special train every Sunday during the season from New York to Saratoga ana Niagara Fails, By this arrangement the AERALD leaves New York at half-past two o’clock in the morning of | Sunday, overtakes the regular train at Buffalo, and arrives in Uhicago on Monday morning over the Michigan Southern and Lake Shore line, twenty-four hours 1f advance of any other New York paper of the same date. [from tne Chicago Times, July 6.) The New YoRK H=RALD’s. Sunday edition now reaches Chicago Monday morning.’ It is brought on its way as far as Niagara Falls im a special HERALD train. OBITUARY.

The “pull” was for $2,000 in gold a side, Which went to the victor, with many little side additions in the way of friendl, bets, aggregating a nice little sum.
