TALK ON SLUMS
OP NEW YORK
JACOB HUB LECTURES AT BI
CYCLE CLUB HOUSE.
What Has Been Bone, Is Doing and
Ought to Be Done for the Uplifting
of the Unfortunates of the Crowded
Tenement Districts of he Metrop
olis Wonderful Transformations
Mode by the Crusaders for Flay
Grounds for Tenement Children
Praise for President Roosevelt.
At tho .Hernntoil Bicycle club house,
last nlghl, one ot tho most representa
tive audiences tho city can assemble,
heard New York's eminent humanitar
ian, Jacob nils, deliver his lecture on
"The Hnttlo With the Slump."
To those Interested hi practical re
form work, Mr. Ulls needs no Intro
duction. His ".Making of An American"
alone would make him familiar to all
who road tho literature of sociology.
Hut his writings form the smallest
part of the ground on which hnvo been
based the heap of encomiums that have
come lo him from IiIh hosts of admirers.
It Is his aggressive, practical uplifting
work among the slums, especially his
activities In the crusade against the
disease and crime breeding overcrowd
ed tenement that won him fame. It
was while engaged lntlils work Hint
Police Commissioner Theodore Roose
velt declared him to bo "Tho best man
living." Only one person disputes this
declaration. That person is Mr. Rlls
himself, lie says Roosevelt Is the best
and also greatest man living.
Personality of Mr. Hits.
Mr. Rlls is a middle-aged man, with
most of the physical character
istics of his nation Danish and
not. ti few of the general
characteristics' of the' present
head of his adopted nation, his close
personal friend. President Roosevelt.
lie is robust, strenuous, massive and
looks In every feature 'the honest,
straightforward, unselfish and zealous
man he bus proven himself to be. One
need only see him to bo favorably im
pressed with him, and brought to real
ize that ho is really somebody.
His lecture, last night, was along the
lines of his book of the same title as
the lecture, which was prepared lust
week. It deals mainly with the work
that has been done( is doing and ought
to be done in lighting the slums by ed
ucating the children of the slums. It
was a most interesting, edifying and In
splilug lecture and those who heard It
may well feel grateful to the Young
Ladles' society of the First Presbyter
Ian church, uiiUor whose auspices he
came here. He was Introduced by Rev.
James Mt-Leod, V. D;, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church.
Mr. Rlls' observations on die series
of stereoptleon views of life in the
slums, collected during his twenty-five
years as a police reporter on the New
York Sun, and worker in the crusades
against the evils of tho crowded tene
ment, were especially Interesting.
Hearty Applause.
Applause most hearty was evoked by
the pleasing contrast of pictures of
condemned tenements torn down to re
lieve congestion in the crowded dis
tricts, and the pretty breathing spots
that came In their stead. When Mr.
Vllis showed pictures of block after
block of tenements that had been razed
and supplanted by grass plats and told
that it cost u million dollars a block
to accomplish this work, there was a
generous expression ot mild, but yet
audible surprise and commendation.
Some of his terse sayings follow:
A mn.li can't live like a. pig and vote
lake a man. Home thero urn who say
"do not stew and fret about those tene
ment people; they won't bo content no
matter what you do for them." It is ray
consistent anil persistent effort to arouso
In the people of the tenements a healthy
discontent. I would not hnvo them con
tent with their condition.
The children of today aro our own
tomorrow. Light, air, play are their
natural rights, and necessary to their
healthy mental and moral growth. Rob
them of these and you rob them of their
manhood.
A homeless country Is most undesir
able. There are 87,000 tenement houfcs
In New York containing L'.OOO.OuO souls.
This Is a, threat to our country because
anything which threatens the home
threatens tho country.
Battle with Slums.
, The battle with the slum is a light
for clvio righteousness. It is a light for
those who are and of right ought to be
our crpials, because they aro lltted for it.
,Ono thing above many others which
trios my patience Is a sign, "Keep Off tho
Crass"! If It so happens that wo shall
bo unearthed thousands of years from
now as Pompeii Is now being unearthed
tho wlso chaps will mrolyngreo from the
(hiding of so many of thoso Inscriptions!
ranut "rno.se Americans wero grass wor
shippers."
Prevent a boy from play and you mon
key with his safety valve. Not until live
years ago did tho movement for play
grounds in tho crowded districts begin
to achieve practical success. The pollen
man and tho landlady hud been fitting
on tho boy's safety valve., A tenement
boy will play ball or burglary. Ho must
be doing.
Tho 'slaughter ot Infants by the luck
of light and air in rear tenements, was
dwelt upon as ono of tho greatest of
the evlls.of tho congested districts. He
told of ono largo tenement of this kind
hi which one-third of all tho babies
died, and which ho discovered the real
owners wero tho , stockholders In n
neighboring cemetery association,
Modern Tenements.
Views were shown of modern tene
ments rectert by Christian people,
under the lend of women like the es
teemed wife of Hlshop Potter, and of
tho Mills hotels erected by tho philan
thropic v. O, Mills. Mr, HIIh spoka in
tho warmest tcfrius of praise of these
people.
The wretched police station lodging
houses which nourished In lower New
York were tho subject of un interesting
anecdote of Police Commissioner Hoose
velt. Mr. Rlls told the commissioner 0(
their conditions and asked him to go
along and see some of them. The Invi
tation was accepted. Roosevelt wus In
dignant that such Institutions wore
permitted to cnIbI in New York city.
I'll smash them tomorrow," said Iloose
velt. "And the nest day they wore
smashed," declared the lecturer. The
audience cheered, it Is iuite needless
to say.
The lute Oeorge K. AVarrlng, who did
so much for New York's health while
street commissioner, cumo In for a ilu
ineed of praise. "He divorced politics
from dirt," said the. speaker, "by put
ting a man instead of a voter behind
the broom."
All through his lecture, Mr. Rlls was
unsparing in his criticisms of Tam
many, lie declared, among other things,
that Tammany must bo reformed out
of the metropolitan landscape before
New Students Admitted at
Any Time.
the metropolis con be effectually re
formed. MASCAGNI AND HIS COMPANY.
They Will Be Heard In Scrantou on
Night of Dec. 8.
While Scrnntou has hnd many notable
musical events In times past, by far thu
greatest yet projected is the coming of
Mascagnl and his grand opera company
with full orchestra on December 8. At
present Mascagnl Is In Hoston and that
classic town Is going mad over his op
eras. Such critics as Philip Hole aro
heaping praises upon his productions
and aro enchanted with his conduct
ing. Mascagnl will present "Cavel
lerla Rusticana" in this city and will
also give sketches, from the operas of
"Iris," "Ratclirf," "Sylvuno" and others.
This great musical affair will be held
In tho now armory and will bo the only
engagement mudo outside the largest
cities. The project Is in charge ot P. C.
Hand.
Mascagni's advance manager, Mr.
Kronberg, Is In the city and is most
enthusiastic over tho prospective per
formance here. It Is Interesting to
hear him describe the singular enthu
siasm which has overwhelmed Boston,
where the houses are crowded every
night.
Already telegrams have been received
from BInghamton, Wilkes-Barre and
other places outside the city, making
Inquiries about the arrangements and
expressing the intention of attending.
APPROVES THE PLANS.
Work on Viaduct Will Be Under

General Manager Frank Silltmaii,
Jr., of tiie Scrunton Railway company,

THE DELAWARE AND HUDSON.
What a Pennsylvania Stockholder
Says About It.
Tho following Is from tho Philadel
phia Stockholder of yesterday:
"A large holder of Pennsylvania roll
road stock says: "Tho taking over ot
the Delaware and Hudson company by
tho New York Central mid Hudson
River Railroad company is not by any
means tin improbable occurrence. I inn
oulte clenr that such a move would ho
very satisfactory to all tho other an
thracite roads and would be an advant
age to all parties through removing ono
competitor In the present situation. It
would bo particularly desirable to have
tho New York Central company own
the road and collieries of the Delaware
and Hudson company, because tho New
York Central management is more sus
ceptible to certain influences than is
that of tho Delaware nnd Hudson. The
Delaware and Hudson is at present to
a decided extent a parallel nnd compet
ing lino in its relation to the Central,
particularly as regards tho northern
portion of the former. Thoro would also
be a distinct propriety In the New York
Central road securing a hold in the an
thrncito field since in the past tho bulk
of the Delaware nnd Hudson coal out
put has gone over its tracks."
WAS WITHOUT FOUNDATION.
No Ground Whatever for a Times
Ghoul Story.
A baseless, sensational story was
printed yesterday in the Times to the
effect that Thomas Wright, the unfor
tunate victim of Saturday's trolley
Occident, was robbed of his money and
other valuables on his person, after he
received his fatal injuries.
Everything of value he was known to
have, Including his watch and $23 In
money, are in the safe of the Lacka
wanna hospital, where they were placed
when he was brought to that institu
tion, as is the custom in every such in
stance. A representative of tho family called
at Tho Tribune office last night with a
request that it bo published that tho
family have known from the first that
the unfortunate man's belongings were
safe at the hospital, -awaiting their call.

The high and training committee ot
tho board of control reported nt lust
night's meeting that options had been
secured for the properties adjoining tho
new manual training school site on
Adams avenue on the north nnd south.
The owners ot the property on the north
want $22,500 nnd tho owners of tho
property on the south want $19,500.
Much discussion brought out the fact
that tho majority of tho members ot the
board wero Inclined to think these fig
ures too high and tho whole matter wus
finally referred back to the committee
with Instructions to secure lower fig
ures before a special meeting to be hold
on Monday night next. It no better fig
ures can be secured, condemnation pro
ceedings will bo resorted to to sccuro

qualifications required by an amend
ment to tho existing rules offered by
Dr. O'Mnlley and adopted. This amend

Penman Specialist.
After about half an hour's debate
the board decided to expend the sum
of $300 in securing tho services of a
penmanship specialist to give instruc
tion in tho night schools, It was also
decided to furnish night school schol
ars with pads, pencils, copy-books,
readers and spellers.
The matter of a retaining wall at
now No. 11 school was brought up by
President Gibbons, who suggested that
the contract for constructing It be
awarded to Peter Stiff, who has built
the building. Tho total amount of the
architect's estimate of the cost was
announced as being $4,1G0, which Mr.
Gibbons admitted was higher than he
had anticipated.
As It is especially desirous that the
walls should be done at once before
snow sets In It was decided to have the
architect meet with the building com
mittee tills afternoon and prepare plans
for the wall, bids to be advertised for
and opened next Monday night. The
question as lo the advisability of con
structing a retaining wall at No. 20
school was also referred to the build
