QIXTEER HUNDRED CHILDREN GIVE THANKS. In the name of sixteen hundred chil- Bren “The Evening World” thanks the (Aldermen for voting to these children ® chance and a place to go to school. Not until Beptember probably will the! old Essex Market be made ready for thera, The long vacation begins in a| few weeks, During July and August) the best music in the ‘Tenth Ward will be the sound of saw and hammer on this temporary school-hous: Not for long should it be used. “The Bvening World” hopes before another Jong vacation arrives to see a new echool-house or two or three new school- houses where they are no urgently need- @4. Whatever else of good for Its people the city has in view can well wait till proper care and attention are given to the children. Free baths, free parks, free museums are all good—may their) umber increase—but before they should ‘be thought of the little ones should be looked after, for in teaching them now you care for them forever and you @are for the future of your city. “The Evening World” feels that in Yooking after the schools and seeing that, as far as cumbrous laws permit no child ts kept from learning it {s Fendering the greatest service to the city now and in the years to come. NOW FOR THE LIGHTS. ‘With but one voice saying no, the Aldermen have passed the ordinance re- quiring all passenger vehicles to carry lamps at night. It is acarcely a week | gince “The Evening Worlki” first sug- gested this reform, so urgently needed | for the protection of everybody who! uses at ni the park drives and the boulevards of the upper city. An idea prevails that it is needed for the riders of bicycles alone. This is rot so, They | will be safer, of course, but #0 also will| be the carriage riders and the men and ‘women on foot. Already many owners of passenger vehicles have begun to use the lamps. "They were quick to perceive the good of | the ordinance. As soon as Mayor Strong signs, it will be a city law and col- Usions will be fewer and life will be safer in the city. Whatever goes to make life safer, Drighter, pleasanter, whatever will help to make New York the best city In the world, has "The Evening World” for a fighting ally. jUMORS ABOUT OSCAR WILDE. At the time of Oscar Wilde's trial it was common gossip that he would in} @ome mi ver be saved from conviction ant punishment, and that the highest influences were at work in his behalf He was found gullty, and the extreme penalty of the law, two years’ solitary confinement at hard labor, was {mposed by the Court, Now that he is declared to have be- geome insane, the English people are expressing the belief that his alleged malady Js @ pretense and Js designed as an excuse for his pardon and release. This is nonsense. The law ia not as loosely administered in England as it is here, and there is not the slightest prob- ability of Wilde's pardon. If he should really lose his reason he would become @ prisoner in @ lunatic asylum for the term of his sentence instead of im Pen- tonville Prison, but there would be no “discharged cured” at the end of a few weeks, as there might be here. Oscar Wilde will serve out his term, a4 a prison is preferable to a mad- Bouse as @ place of confinement, The rumor of his intended “disclosures” ta probably all nonsense. A PROPER PARDON. Nearly six years ago public sympathy ‘23 warmly enlisted in the case Charles Giblin, a young man who was tried and convicted on a charge of mur- Ger. It will be remembered that he of- fered a five-dollar bill at a West Hous- ton street bakery, that the proprietor of the bakery pronounced the bill @ coun- terfeit and refused to return it to Git that a fight followed, that the bake ‘ble brother, the shop man, @ saleswom | be one of them. of | ‘The action of the Governor will be gen- erally and warmly approved. DIRTY-FACED NOW, BUT WAIT. David Herman, a little four-year-old New Yorker, was lost lust Sunday. The family was, of course, greatly excited over his disappearance, and his sister, after making a Jong and trembling search, appeared at Police Headquarters and waited there all night for him to be brought In. Meanwhile Davie was sleeping cherublcally in the matron's cot in the name building, but bis sister didn't know him because his face had boen washe There wre thousands of dirty-faced boys in the streets of New York who look as if they lived a thousand miles from soap and water. If they were Washed once a month even some of thelt own familles wouldn't recognize them. But never mind; their faces will be washed some day And will glisten, and People will perhaps become fam! with thelr beanting! outlines, Thirty odd years hence some now grimy-faced Uttle Davie will be scenting his w kers with soap in the United State Sen- ate lavatories, or perhaps mopping off his brow with @ nice soft towel in the White House. We don't know when will have this rapid transit that there ts so much talk about, but the Commission has a lst of spots that {t favors for loval and express stations, Should It happen that rapid transit doesn’t ever reach here we might do with these spots as the town of, Haverhill, Mass., does with corner lots that Washington once admired, put up little memorial stones on each explain- ing that “This spot caught the fancy of the Rapid ‘Transit Commis- sioners, who thought {t would look well as a local (or express) station.” Great consolation {t must be for Messrs, Shannon and Henry that aft spending a year in prison for burglary, ft has been discovered that they are { nocent.

Something Miss Achurch did offended you, and you felt inclined to set her down as crudes This sort of contradiction was very frequent. A gentle naturale wave way to a hard conventional stagt- ness; soft, purring tones without any Provocation broke out into the moun+ tatnous contralto-ness of Maggie Cline; the calm repose of a Duse face gave way to the distorted mouthings of Mrs. Ken- dal, Miss Achurch express! her emo tlon very often by loopmeg one corner of her mouth up to her left ear, and then letting {t gradually work its way down, ‘Then she would give a sort of Mansfeld “Ha! ha!"—one of those laughs that novelists ke “The Duchess” call flend- {sh and maniacal (because flends and muniacs never indulge in them, I sup- Pose), just as you were expecting @ rip- ple of feminine mirth, Miss Achurch ts, in point of fact, pro- voking. Tam not quite sure that she is worth analyzing very completely, but on the principle that a lady who rents a theatre for the purpose of showing peo- ble what she can do tx entitled to a certain amount of admiration, 1t would not do to pass over Miss Achurch's per- formance in silence. Hesides, she 18 ex- ceedingly consctentious, and some of. her comedy moments are most satisfac. tory. Fortunately for the critic, very tow actresses are so anxlous for critical opinion as Miss Achurch, It would be melancholy and hateful If every young woman with stage ambitions opened a playhouse on her own account. LAfe would scarcely be worth living. As Stephanie de Mobhrivart, Miss Achurch courted comparison with vet- erans like Genevieve Ward and Rose Coghlan, (Merciful heavens! I've un- wittingly called Rose Coghian a veteran! Save me! Save me!) In her quiet mo- men's the comparisor# were favorabl in her emotional episodes, they were not. Miss Achurch ts certainly a com- edienne. She is not an emotional act- ress in any sense of the word, Bhe scarcely knows what emotion means, Her teare wouldn't deceive an infant, and her agony {s laid on ¢o thickly that {t topples over, But in the coquettisn, feline encounters with Sir Horace Welby she showed a consummate appreciation of humor, suggesting Mrs, Kendal at her best, in “A Scrap of Paper,” for Instance, and her attdience was very Pleased with her at thee times. As a member of a stock company, Mis Achurch would be quite an acquisition, I should love to know where this lady Picked up that dress worn in the sec- ond ect. Anything like it I have never seen. Candor compels me to add: And I hope I never shall, It looked to me as though she had bought a lot of material and pinned {t on. Some sar- torial eccentricities are pleasing; this was positively offensive. ‘The three daughters-in-law of Noah in the ark would have been pronounced dowdies even in those non-fin-de-siecle days if they had appeared on the ark's prome- nade deck in such garba. Sir Horace Welby wouh have been perfectly justt- fled in ordering Stephante out of Alice Verney's house, for no other reason than the contaminating influence of her dress. Misa Achurch had satisfactory support, William Harcourt made an effective, though at times rather wooden Sir Hor- ace Welby, and Miss Jennie Weathers- by, @ delightful comedienne, was de- lghtfully amusing as Mrs. Foley, Miss Eleanor Merron, as the sister of the woman who never appears, and whom you are always longing to see, was duly allid and evmpathetle, and Pri fulleotti's Italian brogue was put on @ ly, aa his wie.

Cranberries for Malaria, A business woman who carries her lunch with her from home finally de cided to try cranberries instead of other fruits or meat for sandwiches, She makes them thick, or with more water for juice, to vary a little, and sometimes adds a few apples when cooking them. Make them only just sweet enough to be tasty. They are appetizing, will not make one biifous, and she has used them for her lunches for three years past, very seldom making any variatio: It is surprising, but true, that one does not seem to tire of them, Three years ago she had malaria so badly that if she neglected for a week to take medicine, the chilis and fever would return, They departed, and for nearly three years have not returned, to her surprise.
