SANITARY CENSUS PLANS.
DR.. Darlington 90 Start Inquiry into the
Diseases and Homes OF New Workers.

DR., Darlington 90 Start Inquiry into the
Diseases and Homes OF New Workers.
The Health Department will begin shortly
a sanitary census Of the city for the pur-
pose Of learning the name and physical
condition OF every inhabitant Of the five
boroughs. This has long been pet scheme
Of DR.. Darlington's. It's realization Is now
possible through the appropriation Of
$685. by the Board Of Estimate. Only
once before has q census of this kind been
attempted. That was in 1895, when the
work was carried out by the police. This
the Health Department and will begin as
soon as the census takers have been APP
pointed.
A card s being prepared which will con-
tain questions TO be filed out by OF for
every person in the city. The questions
will cover the physical condition OF each,
especially with reference 70 contagious
diseases. From the result DR.. Darlington
says that IL viii be possible to figure accu-
rately the death rate, thing now impos-
sible, and 10 determine the comparative
rates for different races. He expects to
find out also just what regions have been
most afflicted by each particular kind Of
disease, and, as the physical conditions OF
the city will also be Investigated, 70 de-
termine largely what conditions are re-
sponsible for many diseases.
As every house will be inspected at the
time when It's inmates are examined, the
Health Department expects to be able 70
make many recommendations for the I'M
provement OF homes.
One hundred and fifty doctors will be
appointed 70 do this work. The Health
Department estimates that there are 275 900
houses TO be inspected and that the work
will require several months.
The inquiry cards will be printed In every
language known 20 be spoken in the city.

evening a Black Hand warning, pinned on
the door OF the shop In the afternoon. 1t
was on manila wrapping paper, and around
the black hand was a demand to pay Sal
vatore Perrone $500 at O'Clock OF be killed.
The Manhattan Storage Warehouse on
Seventh avenue between Fifty-seoond and
Fifth-third streets was designated as the
place for payment,
Inc barber took the message seriously
and did not permit himself TO get far from
Detectives Quinn and Fitzpatrick as they
went on hunt for a treasurer Of the Black
Hand They didn't find him,
It seems that the barber had told his
story to every one In the neighboThocd,
so that a big crowd followed the officers
around and gave away their presence TO
whatever Black Hand men were lurking
around. The cops aren't sure that the
whole thing isn't a joke on Meyer.
