Paul d. Cravath. chairman of the tene-
ment house committee of the Charity Or
ganization society, declares that close
canvass shows that there are in New
York tenements $4,000 rooms that have
no windows. A room without windows!
room which is never swept by the sweet
airs Of heaven and into which the light Of
Gods sun never shines! How can men
and women live in that area of perpetual
darkness? Ia It any wonder that dirt and
all uncleanness accumulate and every sin
and vice flourish in such soil? These
New York tenements are owned largely
by the men and women of wealth who are
leaders in the church and in society. 1t
is even asserted that powerful church
rich almost beyond computation owns
blocks Of them and collects its rents as
! closely as any misery landlord.

ARTFUL CAUSES TROUBLE

NEW YORK. May 21.-Hassard says:
If .Adbell shows as much improve
ment in the Brooklyn over his last race
as he did in his last start over the one
before. he IS almost a sure winner of
the Brooklyn Handicap.
He led his field a merry clip as far
as he went. and it was barely an eighth

lon should be able TO hold Merry Lark
safe on last years form, and as Merry
Lark is in grand form IL is hardly neces-
sary to go elsewhere for the placed
horses.
Adbell, Tokalon, Marry lark.
IF the race is true run. l expect the
finish will be fought out among AdbeIl
TokaIon, Merry Lark, Dandelion, and

ferred- Roseben is not likely - start

Artful Causes Trouble
The withdrawal of the great mare
Artful at the eleventh hour from the
field of probable starters cast dismay
into the hearts Of all true racing en-
thusiasts. for she was the one decidedly
high-class racehorse on the points for
this seasons Brooklyn Handicap.
incidentally thereto is a bit Of inter
estlng gossip concerning her owner,
Harry Payne Whitney. and her trainer
John H Rogers When the late w.
c. Whitney lent his aid and interest in
the turf he engaged Rogers under the
stipulation that the trainer should have
absolute control OF the Whitney racing
destiny and full direction of the Whit
ney stable of race horses.
Now They Don't Speak.
Artful worked a trial of mile in 1:40
five days ago, and in the enthusiasm Of
the moment Harry Payne Whitney
rushed from the Erookdale Farm. y. J.,
to his friends at the clubhouse, Bel
mont Park, with the intelligence that
the daughter of Hamburg would be a
starter in the Brooklyn Handicap. This
was without consulting Rogers. Then
Rogers found umbrage.
Ut the last moment came his refusal
to sanction the starting of Artful to-
day. Since then Harry Payne Whitney
and his trainer do not speak as they
