The people of New York are edu- cated by an Intelligent and enterpris- ing public press, which keeps them well informed of what ts going on in the world. It 1s not easy Impose upon them untruthful stories or to misiead them by fallacious arguments When President Roosevelt told the plo in his speech last night that crit had not Increased in this city, and that the worst criminals had os caped detection, while the time a energies of the police were being wast over the prevention of the sale of on a Sunday, he said what th was untrue. Their daily ne tell them a different story. Seldom, {f ever, In the history of the city have there been so many and daring crimes committed in broad day light as since the present misdirection of police reform. Mr. Roonevelt pro fonses to give statistics of petty crimes of recent date, in the attempt to show that they ha.e not Increased — Hut he disingeniously compares felonies committed or reported during the first three months of the present year with the last six weeks, and even then fails to make out a case in his own favor knew apapers Police Commissioner Parker followed the HERAL i the RUN. the iN the TIMES, the TRIBUNE. the ING ‘POST. the MATL AND XPRERS, the COMMERCIAL AD- VERTI-ER and the MORNING JOURNAL. ‘The Worlt’s Cirealation Per Day First Six Months of 1805 - 658,813 2° Fleet Six Months of 1604 - 474,065 First Six Months of 1891 - $22,100 First Six Months of 1883 - 26,537 Gain 1 One Year - - 79,748 Por Day Gein in Four Years - 231,713 Por Day jain in Twelve Years 627,976 Per Day Readers of ‘THE EVENING WORLD’ Weaving the city for the hot monthe should send + We their addresses and have ‘‘THE EVENING WORLD’. mailed them regularly.

Mix a int of molasse, one tea- cup of melted butter, a pint of flour, two well-beaten eggs and one tablespoonful of ground ginger. Dissolve in a tumbler of sour milk (or cream is better), two teaspoonfuls of soda, add flour to make it the consistency of unbaked poundcake, Bake about half an hour in deep ‘pans. The soda when put in the sour milk or cream must be beaten until the cream foams over the glass. This is the good old-fashioned ginger poundcake. Skirt Models. A pretty and satisfactory model for a skirt 1s last year's made with wider pieces in the back and both gathered and box-plaited into the band just at the back. This gives a narrow look to the hips and makes the skirt stand out better than any other. Two small bias cuffies, trimmed with narrow Valen. clennes edging, or one deep one, m: good trimming, which can be elabo- rated by rows of insertion an inch wide. Full flounces on a skirt are a great ad- dition to any wash fabrio, for in {teelf {t has not stiffness enough to stand out well from the feet. A tiny steel or feather bone run through the hem of the front and side breadths ts also g00d addition. Bread Saute. For bread saute take a thick slice of bread, crust preferable. Put a table spoonful of butter in the chafing dish and brown the bread on both sides. Take it out and put in two tablespocn- fuls of grated cheese and one gill of cream. Season with a little cayenne pepper, mix all well together, and when very hot spread on toast. ie For « Jacket Suit.
