CRIMINAL STATISTICS.
How It Is Divided Among the Races In
New York City.
New York City has a foreign born
pobulation of 647,000 out of a total of
,500,000. The foreigners are: Ger-
many, 230,000; Ireland, 200,000; Russia,
£5,000; Italy, 50,000: Great Britain, 49,-
#00; Austria, 20,000; France, 11,000;
Canada and Newfoundland, $,000; other
nationalities, 14,000,
In arriving at the important point as
to the number in each race who com-
mit murder and felonious assault as
gathered from the police records of
eight months past we find that:
ne Italian in 574 commits a feloni-
ous assault and one in 12,222 a murder.
One Irishman in 3,636 commits a felo-
nious assault and one in 13,333 a mur-
der.
One German in 5,476 commits a fe-

only recently died, and the sorrow was fresh
in the memory of the world, and how in the
fresh memory of a Saviour's death could Paul
bo exultant?
It was because Paul saw in that death his

Fabrics Made of Stone and Glass,
In Russia there has for a long time
xisted a tissue manufactured from the
fiber of a peculiar filandrous stone from
the Siberian mines, which by some se-
ret procoss is shredded and spun into
a fabric, whieh, although soft to the
touch and pliable in the extreme, is of
so durable a nature that it will never
wear out. This is probably what has
riven an enterprising manufacturer the
idea of producing spun glass dress
lengths, Fhe Muscovite stuff is thrown
into the fire when dirty, whence it is
withdrawn absolutely clean snd ready
for use, but the spun glass silk is sim.
ply brushed with a hard brush und
soap and water, and is none the worse
for being either stained or soiled. This
material is to be had in white, green,

become very fashionable for evening
dress. It is an Austrian who is the in
