MODEL TENEMENTS.
The question of improved dwellings
for ilio poorer classes ia engaging the
public attention at present to a greater
degree than over before. The noble
example ofGeorgo Peabody and the
Bareness Burdctte Coutts in London
haaaiflkbeon waited , and the alarmea
ing ttntiaticJ presented by the health , '
officers in . .our crowded cities are
calling loudly for some prompt and
effective action. A band of
philanthropic Now Yorkers hare lately
organized themselves into a company
whore object it is to build a number of
model tenements for the working
daisies of the city which will ba fur-
nlahfd with all the fanitary improve-
rnents of the age and will bo at the
same time comfortable , home like and
attractive. The separate cottages for
individual workingmen will be built
of ill } best materials , well lighted and
ventilated , while the tenement houses
are equally comfortable and healthy.
New York , however , is not the fiwt
American city which has attempted .
th'e problem of cheap and healthy
dwellings for the poor. Five years
ago Mr. White , a Brooklyn philan-
thropitt , determined to make the ex
periment of founding a system of
xnndel tenement houses in that city.
The result 1m been a surprising suc
cess , and from the first beginnings a
largo settlement of Mr. White's cheer
ful Jitllo buildings has sprung
up en the corner of Hicks
and Baltic streets. The JSTow
York Times , which has been in
vestigating the workings of Mr.
White's buildings , finds , them admi 4Ph
rably conducted and peculiarly suc
cessful. The buildings include cot-
taga houses for individual working
men , and Largo tenement houses.
Thcro are 8 houses with 0 rooms
oacbr and 20 houses with G rooms in
each building ; besides these , 4 tene
ment dwelling with G rooms each , 22
tenements with 5 room , 143 dwellings
with 4 rooms , and 45 with 3 each , besides -
sides IS stores and shops , or 2G9 total
dwellings. So successful end at be
tractive have these tenements been
that on May 1 , 2CG were already
let. There has been during the year
in these improved dwellings over one
thousand tenants , with an average of
2 10 persons in each tenament , and
5 " 18 in each cottage. The great body
of the tenants are of the laboring and
artist n classes. The rooms are all
eeparato suitei , with separate closets ;
they have in ganeral no dark bed
rooms , and are capitally ventilated ;
many are ( cheerful and sunny apart
ments ; all have fire-proof stairways ,
on the roof , chutes for
j cellars , and are under scrup
ulous jaoral.and sanitary supervision.
The 'refuse is collected from the
cellars by carts .privately employed by
the landloard. Water is admitted of
everywhere , and come of the houses our
have an agreeable open place or garden 11
within the quadrangle. Mr. White 000
has not as yet published the death-rate in
in his houses , bat there is little doubt
that It will not exceed that oE the §
healthiest resorts in this country eay
? 15 per 1000. All this largo settlement
of houses represents a capital of § 250 , to
000 , and jot so well has it been
managed that the rents alone for to
the past year have amounted to
§ 28G3D , ; against this have been charged
$3G&i for expenses of office ,
reading-room , cleaning ; and taxes and ek
water rents , § 5,1GG , with a consider
able Bum , $4,340 , eet aside for im
provements , leaving a net income of G8
$10,518 , or more than G per cent , on but
the capital stock of $250,000. This
la certainly thorough success. The
dwellings have not only given pleas 14
ant and healthful homes to a thousand 1G
people , but jihey have proved an ex 1878
cellent business investment , and have
demonstrated to landlords and build
ers that improved and wholesome at
tenements , without overcrowding and The

QUACKS AND THEIR DIPLOMAS.
The .more audacious the quack the
more ponderous his diplomas. Mar
vin , the woman butcher , who was
pardoned out of the Nebraska peni
tentiary by James I for a purse ,
always pointed ( o his diploma as an
evidence of surgicil skill. Mumey
the hoise jockey , who was exten
sively advertised l > y the Omaha
Herald and Republican * as an
' eminent surgeon , exhibited three
I Or four diplomas , one of them
I i signed ! , and sealed by the faculty of
King's College , Dublin. Aldrich , the
KiMJ
bigamist masher , had several diplo-
MJm
j maa from Philadelphia cclcctric and
' so called medical colleges. All these
sheepskins were the prcdnct of bogus
diploma ] factories. The charlatans
engaged in the manufacture
of boijaa diplomas have ope
rated extensively , not only in
this country but all over Europe.
thTl
Their headquarters have been Cincin
nati and Philadelphia. The sale of
bogus American diplomas has become
such a scandal of late that Minister |
811W
White at Berlin deemed it his duty to
Cl ] the attention of the government
to them. The name of an American
diploma became synonymous with for
gery and fraud , and the well-earned
reptit.ition of our physicians and sur
geons was tarnished by the venal ef
forts of the bogus diploma dealers.
Philadelphia , which is the seat of two
of the foremost medical colleges of
the American continent , was made
the headquarters of the quacks who
dealt in bogus diplomas , and although
the condition of things was no secret ,
and the attention of the authorities
was rei oitedly called to the evil , noth
ing was done to check it.
Some time siuco the Phihdelphia
Record determined to investigate the
matter to its bottom. A member of
its staff wag employed to ferret out
the institutions where diplomas were
sold , to examine the chartera ou which
they grounded their claim , to obtain
full details of the manner in which the ,
bogus sheepskins were purchased , and
to report fully all facts ascertained.
The city editor of the Record paid
§ 130 , attended seven lectures , sub
mitted to electrical treatment , BO that
as the prof essora raid "he might know
how the patients felt , " then wrote an
elaborate ; thesis , pa scd an examina
tion , and received a diploma authoriz
ing him to treat and euro disease all
done in twenty-fivahonra * time actually
spe in reading and attendance at
ech .
echI
Having gone through the diploma
mil the Record man made a thorough
investigation oE the whole bogus dip
loma business and finally in conjunc
tion with the government officers
caused the arrest of the chief of the
gang of scoundrels Dr. John Buchanan
who is now in prison awaiting the ac
tion of ihe grand jury.
The wholesale diploma manufac
turer . . had his agents in the principal
cities of Europe , nnd among the
names of quacks who purchased diplo
mas from him were parties resid
ing in Berlin , Vicuna , London ,
Paris , Havana , Cologne , Cassel ,
Baden , Prague , Edinburp , Malaga ,
Ha and other European cities.
Th names are published to the
wor'id : and the quacks will doubtless
find ! their various localities too hot for
them.

ONE of the
most interesting ques
tions which will bo settled by the cen a
sus now under way , will bo the rela
tion between population and producml
tion. Certain theorists who maintain I
that increased population tends to di to
minish rather than to decrease the re
sources of a country and who hold
with Malthua that population should is
refused , are likely to receive a
severe shock to their economical
ideas. The San Francisco Chronicle
states the matter thus : "It is the
general belief that
the census now
under way will show a total population
not lass than 49,000,000 and probably
50,000,000. In round numbers the
population of all the states and terri
tories in 1870 was 38,500,000. If wo
have 50,000,000 now the increase in
ten yeara was 11,500,000 , or very
nearly 30 per cent (29.87) ( ) . Let us
call it 30 per cent. It is an enormous
increase upon BO vast a capital as 38-
500,000 , and if it can ba kept
during the next ten years , the
population of the United States
will in 1890 have reached
05,000,000 ,
which is as'much as the population
Franco and Italy combined. But

Our exports in 1870 amounted to
529,000,000 , against § 730,000,000 in
1S79 an increase of 33 per cent The
increase in coal production from 18G9
1878 was over GO per cent. Our
agricultural exports in 18G8 amounted
§ 320,000,000 ; in 1878 to § 592- ,
000,000 increase 85-jper cent. The
carc&l products of the country in
1868 aggregated 1,450,789,000 bush- .
, _ including Indian corn. In , - -
1878 the total was 2,368-

per cenh la 1865 we produced
148,500,000 bushels of wheat. In cal.
1879 the production of this cereal was can
440,000,000 bushels. The increase in cal.
years was nearly 200 per cent , or with and

The Back-pay Charge. and der

The back-pay "charge" is as base- The
as any thine ran be. Mr. Garfield maVe
aijainst the amendment to the of
legislative , executive and judicial ap
I
propriation biU providing for increased.
salaries in every form and at every
stage. But , when the amendment
| was tacked on in spite of him , he
voted for the whole bill , as chairman
of the aporopriations committee , be
ing in charge of it himself. In a
speech in the house December 9,1873 ,
Mr. Wilson , of Indiana , said on thii
subject :
Is matters not how many years oL
faithful service had been devoted to
the country , nor how exalted a character - "
acter for integrity had been builded
| up , this ono act has been deemed an
unpardonable crime. My distinguish
ed friend from Ohio ( Mr. Garfield ) ,
who struggled ag-tinst It until in a
' conference report which ho had resis
ted to the last it was brought before
the home attached one of the most
important appropriation , and then as
all of us who are famil'ar with the
facts most confidently believe ( and it is
but justice to him to tay so here ) vo
ted for it in the conscientious dis
charge of his duty to his country , has
fared no better than any one else.
Mr. Garfield was one of the first
members" congress to return the
back pay , and the most earnest advo
cate of the bill repealing the increase.
Speaking in reply to Alexander
Stephens , who advocated still high.r
salaries , Mr. Garfield said :
Ono cf , the -brightest and greatest
men I know in this nation , a man who ,
perhaps , has done as much for its in
tellectual life as any other , told me not
many months ago that he had made it
the rule of his life to abandon any In
tellectual pursuit the moment it be
came commercially valuable ; that
others would utilize what he had dis
co vtred ; that his field of work was
above the line of commercial values ,
and when he brought down the great
truths of science from the upper bights
to the level of commercial values , a
thousand hands would be ready to
take them and make them valuable in
the markets of the wcr'd.
A voice Vfho was he ?
Mr. Garfield It was Agasslz. He
entered upon his great career , not for
the salary it gave him , for that was
meagre compared with tha pay of those
in the lower walks of life ; but he fol
lowed j the promptings of his great na
ture and worked for the love of truth
nnd f > r the instruction of mankind.
Something rf this spirit has pervaded
the lives of great men who did so
much to build up and maintain our
republican institutions. And this
spirit i * , in my judgment , higher and
worthier than , that which the g--ntle-
man from Georgia ( Mr , Stephens ) baa
described. To come immediately to
the question before us , I join la no
criminations sgiinst these who used
the rijjht to rote and act differently from
mysdfon this subject. But when the
public says to me , and to those associ
ated with me , that we have , under
constitutional law , given ourselves
more pay than tint public is willing' '
to grant us , it would be indelicate and
indecqnt in us on such a question to
resist the public opinion.
Intelligent readers may judge
whether Mr. Garfield in this speech
exhibited the spirit of a talary grab-
bar or a sordid politician. He spoke
simply ai he has acted all his life
through. He has not been a money-
linker. He has not made money.
Spite of his great abilities as a law
yer and a literary man , ho is one of
the poorest public men in the nation ,
and at tha same time one of the most
frugxl , industrious and temperate.

SANTA CLAUS FOUND.
Greatest Discovery of tbo Age.
Wonucri ul discoveries In the world have been made
Amofig other things where Slhla Glaus st * fed ,
Children oft ask If he makes goods or not ,
really he lives in a mountain of snow.
Last year an excursion sailed clear to the Pols
And suddenly dropped in to what seemed like thole
Where wonder of wonders they found a new land ,
iVhllc fairy-like beings appeared on each hand.
There were mountains like curs , with more
beautiful pcwa ,
And far brighter skies than ever were Wen ,
Birds with the hues of a rainbow were found ,
While flowers of exquiilte fragrance were grow
ing around.
Not long were they left to wonder in donbf ,
belli ? soon came the/ bad heard much about ,
Twas Santa Clans * self and this they all say ,
looked like the picture t csee every day.
drove up a team that looked very queer ,
Twas a team f grasshoppers instead of reindeer ,
rode in a shell Instead of a sleigh.
But he took them on boird and drove them
away.
showed them all over his wonderful realm ,
And factories making goods for women and men ,
Furriers were working on hats great and small ,
Dunce's they said they were sending them ftU.
Kris Klnirle , the OloVe Maker , told them at once ,
Out GloVes we are sending to liunce ,
Santa showed them suspenders and many things
mere ,
Saying I also took these to Mend Bunco's store.
Santa Claus then whispered a secret he'd tell , s
In O'raha every one knew Bunco well ,
therefore should Send his goods to his care , bll
Knowing his friends will get their full share.
Now remember ye dwellers in Omaha , town , bllB.
who want presents to Bnnce'a go round , B.
