The work Of

progresses with desperate speed. The Supreme

Pleas were all day long squeezed full OF Repuo-

foreign brethren put through the naturalization

Tombs magistrate on the charge of keeping a

Bowling, who is muscular heather, aud

trying to convert Water street, is in political
sympathy with Mr.. Allen, and was 10th to hear
the evidence against him.
Not seeing his way clear to do anything else
he held him in $500 ball. which was furnished
by brother bucket-shopper,
Judge Bowling bade him go sin no more.

Mr.. Rosenberg's
LONG BRANCH BY MOONLIGHT
has been bought and is to be exhibited at the
Derby Atheneum.
If Rosenberg had called it "0n the Beach at
Long Branch, it would take better.
He has spent months in touching it up with
those titbits of color which make perfection.
One of its incest effects is the contrast between
moonlight and freight at the right of the

An immense
MODEL TENEMENT
Is being built in Brooklyn.
Its ground plan resembles that OF a private
dwelling in the East, in the oden time, the four
sides enclosing yard and fountain.
If you take q bird's-eye view from the roof of
the Five Points House OF Industry, you will
have some idea of what the average New York
tenement house ls.
1t is like vast rectangular honeycomb of
brick and mortar, with inuumerable dirty little
cells scooped out for the habitation OF dirty
human bees.
Filth, Famine, and Fever-Dirt, Disease and
Death are there,
II the city were a noxous Venice, built in
stagnant pools, the breath of those tenement
houses, as they smoke in the sun or steam in the
rain, could hardly be more balefuI.
The new model at Brooklyn looks less like a
tenement house than row OF handsome resi-
dences. 1t is built of Philadelphia red brick;
and Philadelphia red brick is as unapproachaole
in its way as Philadelphia golden butter.
1t consists OF four buildings. Two of these
are wings, extending back from either end of
the 10 ain building. These three buildings form
the three walls which enclose the open court
and fountain. The fourth wall is formed by a
smaller building, which consists mainly oil
bath rooms.
The three principal buildings are four stories
high. In the front or maui building the first
and second floors are complete in themselves,
containing six rooms, intended for single
family, and isolated from all other parts of the
building. A peculiar arrangement of staircases
and corridors gives access to the rooms above,
without interfering with the oneness and indi-
yiduality of these six apartments on the first
and second floors.
A completed system OF such tenement-houses
ms this will give to the workingmen OF New
York, as luxurious privacy as that enjoyed by
the workingmen of Philadelphia, which is so
essentially the City OF Homes.
