To the Editor ~ The Erenin1 World:
In answer to &" w. j. VS." question in
Tuesdays EVENING WORLD as to joining n
social club, | would say that the Ivanhoo
Club, of Harlem, has a membership Of
twenty-five young men of good moral stand
ng. They have the finest rooms in Harlem,
with pool and billiard tables. The club has
been in existence for tho last two years and,
unlike most social clubs, it did not start
with II boom and explode III q very short
time after. 1t aso has an induccment ut
present III charging no entrance fees and has
very few assessments.

ExoAvATINe THE AQUEDUCT BOARD.

Another load of dirt was dug up out of the
Aqueduct Board yesterday. 1t was shown
that Commissions BALDWIN, who unites the
business of o banker and broker with that of
an Aqueduct Commissioner, is a sort of part
ner in stock speculations o IN a large scale
with Mr.. HEMAN CLARK, the contractor, of
the firm of CLARK d O'BRIEN. The Commits
sioner and the contractor thy their luck on
the street together, ana share the profits.
Whether the contractor generously stands
the greater share of the losses is a matter of
conjecture.
The Aqueduct Board has almost unre-
stricted control of an unlimited expenditure
of money. How this control is exercised
may be judged from the fact that the sum of
S19. 900, 600 is already expended or contracted
for on work estimated to cost SO. 900. 900.
Whether in such n Board there ought to be
~pecuniary relations in the shape of money
loans ant stock gambling between the Com,
missioners and the contractors, is a question
for the people, who supply the Aqueduc'
funds, to decide.

The Sixteenth has a population of about
80, 600. There IL no way of getting ut the
exact population of the district. as the census
Is taken by warts. In 1884 there We're 5000
votes cast in the d strict for President. The
Eighteenth Ward as 6 1910. 4 large number
of HAT houses have been erected since then,
and with the normal increase of population
III the uptown wards it is safe to predict that
the present population of the ward is fully
so, 900.

A large majority of the residents of the
