A 3I0DEL TENEMENT.
DESCRIPTION OF A BIG APARTMENT
HOUSE AT GREENPOINT, L. I.
MatarUl red and Its ArtUtle KffecC
ConTenleaces and Interior Arrangement.
I led rooms and Purl or Lecture Room.
(Children's Playground.
Amoncr tlio buildings erected for the
purpose of supplying comfortable, decent
and economical uwellintrs at a very mod
erate cost, that put up in Oreenpoint by
diaries Pratt is worth noting. It is to
accommodato 116 families, and is a six
story structure of such massive propor
tions as to attract attention from tne
river, which it faces. It extends 2U0
feet on Franklin street, 135 feet on India
street and 75 foet on Java street. The
chief mfterial UBcd is brown stone, brick
and terra cotta. Tbero are bay windows,
artistic cornices and gables so tliat its
effect is not monotonous. There are
really six separate buildings, which
would Iiave in them when quite full
about 100 persons each.
On the Franklin street side there are
twenty-one families, who use one en'
trance, nineteen families use a second
entrance, and seventeen families a third
entrance. On the India street eide
twenty-six families use one entrance
and twenty-one families another. On
the Java street side eleven families use
one entrance. Each house is separate
from all the others. All the liaDs are
fireproof. The steps are heavy blue
stone 6labs, inserted in brick walls. The
staircases are nicely proportioned low
risers, with broad steps. The turns are
made on square platforms, with ample
light at each platform. These staircases
are kept heated, lighted with gas, and
cleaned without expenso to the tenant.
ROOMS AND THEIR RENT.
The rents range from $8.50 to $20 per
month. For $20 there are suites of seven
rooms, every room with a window in it
opening on a wide air Bpace, giving two?
parlors, a sitting room, two bedrooms, a
dining room, a kitchen and a scullery.
The scullery goes with each set of apart
men is, and its completeness is a great
feature of this building. It contains an
earthenware washtub, with hot and cold
water, a large sink and an ash chute, in
which all refuse may bo emptied, lead
ing to the cellar. Each family has a
separate water closet, with a window in
it opening into the scullery. Each scul
lery is ventilated by an -opening into a
flue built for the purpose, leading to the
roof. Each kitchen has a range and hot
water boiler. Eacli tenant has a separate
coal and wood bin in the cellar, a sep
arate portion of the yard to be used for
drying clothes, and has access to an ele
vator which can lift 200 pounds at a
timo.
There is a folding table in each living
room, and a closet to nearly every room.
Wainscoting prevents damage to walla.
There are gal vauized iron loxes on the
window sills for flowers. Picture mold
ings are secured to all the walls, and the
tenants are supplied with hooks, so that
there is no temptation to mar the walls
with nails. The rooms average 140
square feet. Each closet has shelves and
hooks enough to meet the want3 of the
most closet worshiping matron.
The plumbing work of the building is
a vast network of pipes. The heaviest
material in lead and iron pipe was used.
Eleven tanks, holding 23,000 gallons of
water on the roof, supply the three upper
floors, and can be used also for the three
lower Hoors in case the pressure is not
sulHcient from the city pipe.
CELLAR AND BASEMENT.
The bedrooms and parlors are trimmed
with white wood, filled, varnished and
rubljed. Great pains have been taken to
secure a perfectly dry cellar and base
ment. The foundation walls rest on a dry
gravel bottom. They are covered with
asphalt and have a bitumen damp course.
m t iie basement there are commodious
bath rooms for the use of the tenants.
They are heated with Bteani, and have
marMe floors and Wainscotinir. The
wood work is polished ash.
mere is a reading room, or lecture
room, on Java street for the free use of
the tenants. It is lighted, heated and
supplied with the leading newspapers
and periodicals.
1 ho suites of four rooms rent for Sia
per month. They comprise parlor, bed
room, dining room, kitchen and scullery.
Some of these four room flats are rented
as 1 jw as $13.50 per month. The three
roo:n suites rent for from $9 to $13.50
per month.
Children are not permitted to play on
the staircases or in the hallways, but
they have a grand romping place in the
bijj 3'ard, which covers about 8,000 square
feet of open space. Although the build
ing; are substantially fireproof, there are
liri' escapes connecting each floor with
tho ground. The buildings were erected
for I dm, and are now managed by a
buiMing company. Before the plans wero
completed there was a thorough study of
the model apartment houses of London,
bui!t by George Peabodv, the Baronees
Iiurdett-Coutts, Sir Sidney Waterlow
an ! others, as well as later structures in
Mo-.f York and Brooklyn. The aim was
to t-v-cure the maximum of comfort -und
snf. ty at the minimum of cost. It has
at:r.icted a class of permanent careful
te:::ints. The building has never been
full, but it i3 filling up rapidly. It is pro-jKj.-'d
to give a few courses of lectures in
the reading room this winter. When the
apartments are all filled the investment,
whi:-li is about $450,000, will pay, after
nuvting the expenses, about percent.
The income of this building is an endow
ment by Mr. Pratt of the Pratt Institute.
T1k original plan comprised the estab
lishment of co-operative stores similar to
the plan of the Rochdale stores in Eng
land, but this has not yet been developed.

Mr. Besant formulates eleven rules
which must be constantly kept in mind
by those who would worthily follow the
art of fiction. These eleven rules the
endecalogue, as one might call them, of
tin- art of fiction are as follows:
1. Practice writing ooinething original
every day.
2. Cultivate the habit of observation.

7.
Work regularly at certain hours.

Endeavor to be dramatic.
A great element of dramatic skill is
selection.
8. Avoid the sin of writing about a
character. '
y. Never attempt to describe any kind
of life except that with which you art
familiar. ,
10. Learn as much as you can about
men and women. -
11. For the sake of fanning a good

WAYS THAT ARE DARK.
Clriujr Away Dice Boier-Whjr the Cards
Were "Saerilleed."
A dapper looking young man dropj)cd
in at a Dearborn street resort one tiay
cot long ago and inquired for the pro
prietor. When informed by tho white
aproned young man who caters to 1he
thirst of the customers in the absence of
the proprietor that tho latter was not in,
tho dapper young man unwrapped
a package which lie carried and pro
duced a new dice box containing tho
regulation five dice. Ho stated that he
represented a certain patent medicine,
the proprietors of which thought of giv
ing out these dice boxes as an advertise
ment, and, if ho succeeded in placing
enough of them to make it an object, ho
would come around later and stencil an
advertisement on the boxes. He begged
permission to leave that one for the pro
prietor, with his compliments, and, as
the dice boxes in use wero somewhat
shabby, the white aproned man gladly
accepted the new one and thanked the
dapper youth. When the proprietor
turned up a little later he was pleased
with the gift and threw away the old
boxes.
On the following afternoon a party of
well dressed men entered the place.
called for the dice box, and proceeded to
snake ior tne drinks. After two or three
rounds the men began to shake for "a
quarter a corner" and then $1. The pro-
! A. 1 1 1 1 .1 . 1
prieior, wno was oeninu me oar, noticeu
that the big man who proposed the shak
ing for money was tne heaviest winner,
and, in the course of the afternoon, one
of the proprietor s friends, who had gone
into tho game, lost 4'J0, tne bulk or which
went to tne Dig man. mere was some
thing peculiar in the way in which he
handled the box, and, after he left, the
proprietor examined it carefully.
While he was thus engaged an old
friend of his. who had for years traveled
with a circus, came in. He knows all of
the tricks with dice, and, when asked if
there was anytliing wrong with this par-
ticuiar ouini, ne uicaea it up, loOKeu ai

it, and then said: "Yes, its what is
called a California smooth box, and in
practiced hands it is a sure thing. You
notice that the inside of the box is as
6inooth as class and that tho dice are ner
feet cubes, with square corners. The
man who understands it can shake two
pair 'on the square,' and when he picks
up the odd die he can slide it into the box
with the desired spots on the upper face.
shake it up and down carefully, and the
same spots will slide out and ml the hand
like this, and the circus man demon
strated the idea. The proprietor readily
saw that the box had been "planted
there by the big fellow's confederate, the
allejred patent medicine man, and he now
retains it as a curiosity, but allows no
one to shake with it.
Some months ago this proprietor was
deceived in another way. It was just
after Mayor Roche's edict against gam
bling had crone forth and the Bports had
begun to realize that wide open gambling
was done for for tho time being, and
were leginning to seek fresh fields and
pastures new if they could muster tho
price of a railroad ticket, une day a
certain well known snort droDDed in at
this same place and quietly informed the
proprietor that he was hungry, had no
money to buy a meal, and his sole assets
consisted of three packs of cards, which
he had saved from the clutches or the
police at the last "pulL" He offered to
sacrifice them for twenty-five cents pei
pack, and, as the proprietor's customers
often indulged in a little game in the
back room, and he was out of cards j'ust
then, he bought them, and the sport
withdrew with seventy-hve cents.
About two or three days later in came
a party of young fellows, who had a few
drinks and then asked the privilege of
indulging in a small game. They were
furnished with one of the three packs of
cards and went into the room. When
the proprietor went into the room a few
minutes later to take the party's order he
noticed that the greater part of the chips
and cards had accumulated in front of a
sport whom he knew to be a friend of
the fellow who sold him the cards, and
when he went out he examined the backs
of the other two packs, and found them
marked ingeniously. He invented an
excuse to break up the game, and then
he burned the cards. Just now he is
wondering if his eye teeth are through
yet. Uhicago lieraid.
Election Returns Sixty Tears Ac".
Just sixty years ago Jackson's first
election took place, and I lind by refer
ence to Niles' Register that the details
were uncertain so late as the 24th of the
following December. This fact is given
in tho following paragraph:
"A letter from a member of the com
mittee or rittsburg, dated Dec. 24, to a
friend says that a reply has just been re-
ceived from Gen. Jackson. He states
that it would give liini 'great pleasure to
accept our invitation, but he thought
any arrangement relative to it should be
deferred until the result of the election
was perfectly ascertained. Then if the
circumstances ijermitted he would be
happy to become the guest of our city.
Ihe above paragraph appeared in
Niles Kegister of Jan. 10, lo'J, more
than two months after the election. The
result, however, had been conj'ectured as
early as the 22d of November, and The
Register of that date says: "fcot heard
from Rhode Island, South Carolina,
Tennessee. Alabama, Louisiana, Missis
sippi, Illinois and Missouri, all of which
but Rhode Island and Louisiana are con
ceded to Jackson, so that he will bo
elected by a very large majority. We
shall at some future period present a full
tabular statement showing all the votes
in the several states." New York Cor.
Troy Times.
Effect of Stage Cosmetics.
As to the effect of "make up" that is,
of paints upon the health a word may
be of both interest and use. The opinion
that they are very deleterious is just
about as unintelligent and false as the
opposite, which proclaims them innocu
ous. Any cosmetio is injurious to the
complexion. The mere mechanical ac
tion toughens the skin and enlarges the
pores. 1 question u there be a profes
sional of five years' experience whose
epidermis had not assnmed a tint and
hardness inconsistent with the highest
beauty. But this is the limit or the in
jury as far as the vast majority of stage
pigments is concerned. On the other
hand, the perspiration induced by ex
citement, hard work, and, it may be,
heated dressine rooms, and the repeated
washings and scrubbings to which the
face is forever subjected, keep the skin
in excellent condition and prevent the
eruptions and blemishes so common to
the outside world. In many cases when
actors are naturally careless of their ap
pearance and neglectful, "make up" is a
blessuigr and bestows upon them ;
healthier and handsomer complexion
than they would otherwise Lava.
DriVi'i!'
Social Life of Ancient Egyptians.
Guests who were invited to a private
nouse rode timber in their chariots or in
sedan chairs carried by their servants,
and like thoso now used in India and
elsewhere. If the day was hot tho cha
riot or sedan chair was furnished with an
umbrella to keep oif the sun. An
Egyptian gentleman often drove his own
cliariot, but servants attended him to
help him to alight and to take charge of
his team and cliariot. While they were
awaiting tho announcement of 'dinner
music was provided, and tho principal
features of the house wero pointed out
to the guests and, as with us, good man
neni constrained them to praLw all they
saw, and especially any curios shown to
the'ja. If visitors det.ired to wash their
feet or hands before dinner, servants at
tended on them, and hi palaces tho water
pitcner and basin wero of gold, serv
ants also, as a sign of welcome, poured
from an alabaster or metal lxx sweet
ointment utmhi tho heads of the visitors
and brought garlands of flowers. To
each guest was also given a lotus flower,
which he held in his hand while ho re
mained in the host's house. rlyVlne was
then brought round and both Jadies and
men partook of it, using cups of gold,
silver or oreelam. The poor contented
themselves with cups of earthenware or
of Koine cheap metal.
itil tho guests were being cnter
tai:ici with music and dancing, dinner
wan being prepared, the meats including
Devi, goat s Uesli and venison; while
dueLs, geese, teal, quail and other birds
wire also provided. Mutton was not
eaten. Great quantities of rish and vcir-
etulL'S wero also served, the feast lx.iii
exceedingly plentiful, and tho dishes
very various. Each di;h was placed in
tno center or the triwie, a::j t.ie guests
dipped pieces of Iwead into it. When
the host gave the sign, it was removed,
and another introduced. Tho poor could
not, of course, secure 6uch abundance as
this, but lived largely on vegetables.
milk, choose and fruit. At a later ncriod
tho Egyptian's love of tho table seems to
have increased, so that tho mode of life
of the higher classes was described as
ever luxurious and even profligate. A.
inkersley in ban rraucisco Chronicle.
French Canadians In New Kugluml.
Yv ho then need wonder at tho predic
tion of an able New England statistician.
that Ix'fore the end of the first quarter of
tno next century that the rrench Cana-
diaiu in the New England states will out
number tho Anglo-saxon insulation?
Why, we have m them already consider
bly moro than England conquered in
Canada, with thousands coming j'early
from Quebec to join them. With such
extraordinary progress achieved under
so many disadvantages, tho above pro-
diction is far from improbable.
The social philosopher and American
Eatriot can find abundant food for specu
ition in the fact that against the Yankee
family of one or two children, and often
none, the French Canadian will count
his flock of from half a dozen to
a dozen and a half. And the Anglo-Saxon
will doubtless continue
to "go west" to a large extent.
while tho French Canadian will probably
maintain and increase tho movement to
the southeast. So we shall have liistory
repeating itself. We shall see tho Nor
mans overrunning and taking possession
of another England by the worthy and
beneficent arts of peace, and tho judi
cious employment of manners and i low
ers which liavo enabled this people, from
insignincaut beginnings, under most un
favorable and discouraging circum
stances, to build one vigorous state in
North America within a century, and
then undertake tho rapid formation of
another. American Magazine.
A New Hypnotic Phenomenon.
M. Liegois contributes to a recent
number of The Revue de THynnotisme
an article describing a new hypnoti'
fhenomenon, in the field of a "negative
lallucination." This term describes a
state in which the suggestion that a cer
tain person, a certain object in the field
of vision, remains unseen, has been
obeyed. The state is explained as an an
nilulation of the perception as it,rcaches
consciousness. The impression is re
ceived, but ignored. Having a Uiird
partv to suggest to one of his subjects
tliat ho will be invisible to her, it is found
that she does nos hear liim, see him or even
feel the prick or a pin when he holds the
pin, reacting normally to all other per
sons. . If, however, M. Liegois calls out
impersonally, "Caniiile feels tliirsty,
Camille will drink a glass of water," die
bears and obeys tho command; if simil
arly told to stand at his side, she does
so; and so on for every sense. While
she does not hear him, she none the less
really can hear him. There is a sort of
dual personality, one-half of winch
obeys tho negative suggestion, while the
other i. automatically regulated, and
obeys any suggestion not directly iu con
flict with a previous one. ilio further
development of this f;t udy promises in
teresting results. Science.
D:incra of Cltnniois Hunting;.
Tho cx;erience gained in ordinary deer
stalking is of littlo use to the chamci j
hunter tho region in which the game is
to bo seen is t:o different, while the agil
ity and watchfulness of the two animals
compel the cultivation of very dili'erent
kinds of adroitness, l he man who u lit
to win and wear the much prized "Gain
bort," or long tuft of hair from tho back
of the winter pelt of the chamois, re
quires to be a man of iron muscles, cool
head, unerring eye, and a courage that
must often be prepared to face terrible
odds, to avoid the danger of having to
meet others much worse.
Without tho power of undergoing fa
tigue and privations it is vain lus at
tempting to become an adept in this
sport. And one of the very charms of
the "Gamsjagd" lies in the knowledge.
that ho cannot obtain his success by any
kind of adventitious advantages. Neither
man nor dog can be of any use to him.
He must rely entirely on himself; and if
once he gets troubled with a oread or
hunger or cold, or abvss or crevasse, or
6lippery glissade, he may much better
try lus fortune at humbler game. In
short, chamois hunting is Alpine climb
ing, plus the fact that it is the antelope,
and not the guide, who selects the trav
eler's route. London Standard.
Gin of Second Sight.
Terr much akin to dreams is the omen
or gift of second sight, that is to foresee
disaster by the vision of that disaster it
self or some symboL This is a belief that
is most common among the Scandinavian
and Scotch, th vision of a funeral pro
cession being the ordinary omen indicat
ing a death. The Germans have a pe
culiar form of second sight which they
call the dopple ganger, that is the double
goer, in this the person who is to cue is
astonished by seeing himself, either on
the street or in a room, and sometimes
even in bis own bed, Ban Francisco
