The recent reports' of the vari ous government departments all point to the increased wealth o England and the increased trade which it has ddnej and yet, simul taneously with this growth of prosperity ' (and inconsistently, one would think,) there is an un doubted and a serious increase' in crim, an increase recently re ferred to by- Sir Ralph Littler. The social reformer may ex plain this away as he likes, bur. seeing that crime is largely due to poverty and want in the ease df the first offender, and that the fre quent reappearance of the "habit ual criminal" is to some extent evidence of the failure of our most expensive machinery for the pun ishment and diminution of crime, the( English' taxpayer is naturally alarmed when he finds that even the great prosperity which the government departments depict can be accompanied by a great and ah increasing amount of crime. Yet the fact remains that dur ing this year, and, indeed, during the last four years, there has been a steady upward movement in criminal activity. Previous ' to ISO!) the crime statistics had been steadily improving, and the fig ures for crimes dealt with at the assizes and" quarter sessions,, where all the more serious indict able'offenses are tried, decreased continuously. " " - But in the last four years these figures have as continuously in "ereased, and increased at a much more rapid rate than they had previously decreased. In these four years, in fact, the figures for sei jou-s offenses run thus 10,149. 10,797, 11,392, and to-day, 11,882! The increase, too, is even more marked, when we come to -the worst offenses. In the Jast vear, for example, morepersons we're sentenced to death than in any previous year for which we have a rej-o'rd. The annual average of 3eath sentences for the five vears JSOSJrv.-as 2-1.6, and for the five years IS 1902 it was 27.4; but iz the last recorded yettr the num Lfr of death sentences rose to the unprecedented total of 41. ' : Now, if the indictable or more serious offenses tried at these .courts of summary jurisdiction are added to the 11,882 cases at the assizes ariifquarter sessions there is a total for the last year amounting to ES,444 serious "of fenses, which contrasts unfavor ably" with the. 57.06S of the pre vioasVyear, and still worse with t"i? preceding years, which ac counted for 55,000, 53,628 and 5il,494 offenses, respectively. ' The next point of interest to the jjublic is the class of crime which i?.inereasiBg, 'and here it is foantl that yAile acts of violence to the p:-:scn and " assaults generally Lave decreased, the "last for ili gctten wealth and other' person's 'property, is increasing. '' ; But there is more behind the : 3gures,:for it is now' a well:ascer tamed fact that the number of charges tried is small' in propor vlie nurL,cr oL:': vnstn cr.fm;tted. Eoughly, only "one ti:hd of the total of offenders agiiinst "property r a apprehend ed. Thus, out of 3,685 cases of ho asebreakingv known to the po lice only 891 persons were appre hendedr ahd of these only 98 were summarily convicted. Out of a tofaly of 9,920 offenses against property with violence only 3,691 persons were apprehended in con nection with those offenses. This discloses a very serious state of things, which the British police authorities would do well to ex amine. It clearly calls for a dras tic reform. ' Temptation Avoided. "I understand that you are send ing your boys to night school."

He kept a draper's shop, and was rather glib in his talk and in clined to be flippant to his ens tomers. - One day an old woman went tc his shop and said : 'I want some threepenny cal licker." "Threepenny, marm! Bettei not take a. threepenny calico take a sixpenny. A threepenny calico won't wash; a sixpennj will. A threepenny calico u sleazy; a sixpenny calico is firm Take a sixpenny calico, and you'l be glad you didn't take thi-eepen ny; take a threepenny, and you'l. be sorry you didn't take a six penny. Let me measure you of the sixpenny; it is heavier, wil last longer, and is cheaper in tht end. Don't take" a threepenny when only threepence more wil give you a material worth double What clo you say?" ; The old woman stood perfectly still till he paused, dnd then said A threepenny callickeris gooc enough for a, poor worm like me.' "Worm! worm, marm! Don'i call yourself a worm ! I don't like to hear people call themselves worms. We are not worms; wt are men and women. Worms, in deed! I'm not' a worm; you are not a worm. f I'll tell you what wt are made of water, gas, lime anc a few other items'." ., The old woman simply said: - "Law! is that so? Then I reckot the biggest part of you is gas Now I'll take ten yards of three penny callicker." V T NOT WORTH THE MONEY. Lady at Circus Wanted More Doubl "Humper", Camels and More Hair - - on Single Ones. . A tall woman with a determined expression, and surrounded b.y six childrf n of assorted sizes, ap proached jthe attendant of the. menagerie and eyed him with a relentless gaze. "What nationality is that ele phant?" she inquired, indicating one close at hand. ",; -"Gomes from 4frica, ma'am," said the attendant. , "He's' dreadful light-colored tc have come from tropical parts,'1 said the woman, sternly. . "And look here," she added, as the at tendant started away from hei family- group,; "they've got a mighty poor lot of camels here, ac cording to my lights. Not but one hump on any of 'em except that feller that's so old he keeps his exes shut!" - . ' a , The attendant again essayed tc depart, but she clutched him by the sleeve. "You tell the owners of this show what I say!" she command ed. "You, telU'em that when j; woman pays fifty cents for herself and one fifty for a mess of chil dren she looks to see more'n one double hmner, and more hair on the single humpers not have 'em look as if the moths had got into 'em; Now mind you tell 'em !"
