Every American city big enough to hnvo olio of thoso municipal Bores called n slum will doubtless bo In terested In tho hugo experiment Blow old London Is undertaking. And parenthetically It may be observed that a city that Is spend today more- millions on municipal Improve ment, building moro miles of up-to-date underground ulectrlc roads and going In for probably more municipal trading ventures than any other city on earth Is not ns slow iih It is usually painted. The slum experiment now on Is nothing lcrs than tho expenditure of 110,000,000 In wiping out and robulld'.ng the homes of about 40,000 people. A further program that tnciins an expendlturo of probably an other 110,000.000 Is now being discussed, and oftcr theso projects nro well under way now (.chemes will bo plaunod to tho sarao ond and moro millions spent until tho necessity for spending money In this way In London lhall havo disappeared and tho city havo bo como a landlord on an unprecedented scalo. That will, of courso, be nt tho tlrao when tho last of London's world-famous slums has been wiped out and rebuilt. When that day will dawn no ono Is prepared to tay. I'riilili-ni iif lliiunliijr (tin Poor. Today tho "housing" problem Is tho worst thai London has to fuco, but Its powerful county council, which has dono several rnther rcmarhnblo things already and which has prnctlcally unlimited wealth to draw upon, has determined that over-crowded, unsanltnry niid slum nrcas must go. Tho council has alrcndy nttneked, razed and re built ono of tho worst sluniB In London: several other notorious ones nro now being torn down and still others aro doomed. Medical inspectors In tho county council's employ nro penetrating Into tho city's lllthtest corners nnd condemning them. The wretched creatures who swarm In them aro paid a Btnall sum of money nnd turned out. after which tho slum comes down. Tho "before tnklng" phnso of tho coun cils heroic remedy Is a mass of closely pai Ited hovoln, suuaUd, unllghted and un ventilated, reached through grimy, winding alleys, in which tho pollco dnro to go only In force. Tho "after tnklng" Is blocks of trim cottages or apartment buildings, each Hopurnted from tho other, equipped with literally "every modern convenience," In cluding n perfect system of draluago and every essential for cooking. Tho apart ments aro well lighted by day with largo windows; nl night either by gas or elec tricity, on tho Blot Hyfltom, whero a penny dropped In produces gas for six hours. Near nt hand Is a pari; or playground for recren tlon, and baths nnd washhousca for clean lineBS. Theso "model dwellings," more over, nro to rent at prices which even very poor pcoplo can afford to pay. As soon us thu county council thrown open a new lot of Its dwellings they aro Immediately tenanted to their full extent. So far, on worklngtnen's homes of this pattern that occupy tho place of former bluin dlstrlctB. tho London county council hnH spent n llttlo over J3.000.000. Following out Us program, It Is now building houses of tho same kind which will cost over 5t.ri00.000, nnd to clear tho now districts which tho councll'H Inspectors havo con demned nnd which nro to be rebuilt will cost J5.500.00!) more. Tho houses nlready built nceommodtito moro than 10.000 people; thoso now building nnd thoso arranged for will glvo dwellings for 30.000 more. They will bo finished and occupied in flvo years from now. i:viniMlliiK Ilt'Vonil Loudon's Hound. Tho second scheme which tho council Is laying out takes another way of curing tho mmo dlacnBo of overcrowding. This Is by nrrpilrlng trncts of land In tho country Just out of London, building model dwellings there, nnd connecting them with tho work ing centers of tho city by light railways. The dotalls of this scheme havo not been Bettled. but members of tho council tell mc that perfecting It will cost probnbly $10, 000.000. Of courHe theso operations, gigantic as they nro In tho amount of money they co9t. nro only tho beginning of tho work of get ting rid of London's slums, but everything points to this vnBt undertaking being enr rcd out to tho end. Tho best reaBon for this belief is that tho council la no longer divided on this subject. Until n compara tively short tlmo ago n large number of Its n embers had llttlo faith In tho schemes thnt the body was In tho net of carrying out. but success has converted theso doubters, nnd hereafter tho council will work ns u unit In this direction. Nnturally. It Is not planning to spend tho millions of tho city of London without expecting to get them back again. Tho power of money-spending that was granted to tho council by Parlia ment 1h on tho condition that their opera tions shall bo so conducted that nt tho end of sixty yenrn every Iioubo built shall havo inld for Itself. This housing of tho needy classes Is not nn especially new part of tho London county council's work, but Un grent Im portnnco todny lies In tho dimensions to which It has grown and Its great promise for the future. Tho council began to re houho on u modest scalo In 1SS3, but realized whnt It could do only nfter It had under taken and successfully accomplished tho fent of tearing down tho "Old Nlchol," In Shoredltch, one of tho worst slums In Lon don, nnd Installing n model village, with a pnrk and n recreation ground In Its place. Work In (lie Worst Slums. This district was known n8 tho "Houndnry Street Area," and It camo to bo purified largely through tho efforts of u Blnglo ro markablo clergyman of tho Church of Kng land, named A. Osborne Jay. Almost fresh from Oxford, ho took this living, in which eory ono of his predecessors had been absolutely helpless. Thoso worthy men hnd organized "culture clubs," distributed soup tli hols with liberality, nnd dono what par ish vlsltlug they dared, hut they never got nearer to tho pcoplo of tho district than was necessary to bo most humlllatlngly victimized by them. It was a tough place. Tho last policeman who had entered It alone, while In pursuit of n sncakthlef. had had his skull crushed In by un Iron grating deftly dropped from n second-story window. The first thing that Dr. Jay did when he "took over" his new parish was to show lw Inhabitants thnt ho wasn't afraid of them -that he could, on occasion, be a militant Christian. Then ho set to work to find out what sport they liked best of any kind and discovered thnt It wns boxing. So ho opened n largo room with every facility for tho I practice or. tne mnniy an, inciuuing gioves, nnd Invited tho men to como thcro and spar. They flocked to It, an honor which they had never paid to tho old "club rooms," whero dominoes, checkers and chess con stituted tho attractions. It was no drawing room boxing that subsequently reigned In that room. A bloody nose was among tho preliminaries; no ono regarded the loss of a tooth or two, and tho bouts almost al ways "went" tilt tho knockout came. Kvcn tho parson's strict rule of no swearing or bad languago scarcely affected tho popularity of tho place. Ho was nlways there, and, as tlmo went on, even tho m6st hardened men In the district recognized tho fact that their preacher was no "softy." as they put It. And so ho got his first hold on them. The story of how ho won tho wholo district to respect nnd almost to love him Is too long to bo told here, but now In the spot whero stood tho worst part of tho "Old Nlchol" stands Dr. Jay's famous church with n boxing room In Its basement! Dr. Jay It was who egged the London County Council on to rebuilding tho slum. Tho story of his long fight was told by Arthur Morrison In his novel, "A Child of the Jago," of which Dr. Jay, or "Father Jay," as he Is now affectionately known In tho "Jago," Is a prominent figure, and which Is dedicated to him. Whnt n Tjplcat .Slum Is I.IUe. A picture of this part of Shorcdttch as It was before Dr. Jay's crusado gives a fair Idea of tho other congested London districts with which th? county council Is cither dealing or gottlng ready to deal. Tho houses were built bo that their ground floors wcro sometimes mora thnn a foot below tho street level, ni.d In building them a cheap sort of mortar, known ns "llllly sweet," hnd been used, n distinguishing feature of this BUbstanco being that It never dried. In tho district there was no street moro thnn twenty-eight feet wide. Most of tho thoroughfares were mero alleys. No house boasted a front door, no house was over re paired nnd such backynrds as had onco existed had been roofed over to make now dwellings. Pcoplo slept out on the slde wnlks to avoid ono kind of vermin In tho houses and burned cnndlo stumps to scare off another kind. Tho death rato In tho district wns forty per thousand, and It Is no exaggeration to say thnt every man In tho slum was nomo kind of a criminal. At ono tlmo thcro wero sixty-four tlckct-of-lenve men there, nnd when onco a criminal, cither a thief or murderer, had slipped be tween tho two posts thnt marked tho en trnnco to what Arthur Morrison called tho "Jago," tho pollco gave up tho pursuit. In tho slum thcro wns what wns known us a "royal famllv." who kinged It over tho district, but there wns also n pretender and his gang, and when tho two cliques met In battle, which they often did, tho district literally ran with blood. Ihe nverngo rato of population per aero In Loudon Is nbout fifty-seven In somo of theso slum districts In renches 316. In one of them thero nro fifty-four dwellings, In which 1,600 people llvo or die. In tho rooms of such hovels the principal article of fur niture Is generally tho bed, which nearly tills tho apartment, nnd which serves for tho wholo family, no matter how numerous It tnny be. As many an can, generally tho father, mother and any "guest" who may bo enjoying their hospltnllty, with, say, thrco of tho older children, occupy tho top of the bed. The rest of tho family sleeps under It. Generally every article of cloth ing recks with filth. The windows of the room, concealed behind grimy curtains, nro never washed, and tho room Is In practical darkness. Sometimes two families "go snooks" on the same room nnd bed, tho first using It from 7 until midnight nnd then decamping, when tho second retires In tho warm bed. Children of bucIi dis tricts, sent to school and falling asleep In their seats, complain that they had no sleep the night before, ns thoy had to flght "tho bugs" all night long. Threo rooms in such a dwelling wero visited. In the first lived n mon, woman nnd six children, who rented a llttlo cupboard nf an annex to two moro grown persons; In tho second lived n father, mother and threo grown-up children, while tho third wns occupied by tho parents nnd four children, to say noth ing of an adult "lodger." I'lmi nf Action. This is tho sort of thing that tho London County Council is now prnctlcally unani mous In endeavoring to get rid of. The principal criticism that has been made of tho countilmcn's system Is that when they pull down ono of theso slums and build model dwellings on tho site, tho people who como Into tho new are not thoso who were driven out of tho old. I asked a prominent olllclnl of tho council his opinion In tho matter. Ho said: "It Is true, wo don't get back tho pcoplo wo turn out, but our theory Is that ns wo aro gradually wiping out tho worst slums, tho refugees from ench will havo to locate In a district thnt is a little better than that from which thoy nr evicted, nnd bo, ns wo work nlong, rebuild ing district by district, we expect that oven tho lowest of them will bo raised gradually, little by llttlo, to cleanliness, and order, and decent living."

If ono may Judge from the newspaper ac counts, the Omaha messenger boy differs materially from thoso of other cities espe cially from thoso of New York and Chicago. Thcro tho boy with the lettered cap talks with a marked Chlmmy Knddcn Jargon that Is most bowilderlng and which, In Us printed form, Is made up mostly of apostro phes. In Omaha, however, It Is different. Hero ho spenks much llko other people. Though ho uses slnng, ns do nil healthy boys, ono doesn't hnvo to call In an In terpreter In order to carry on a conversa tion with him. Whatever ho may lack In plcturesriucness by reason of his respect for tho queen's Kngllsh ho Is well abreast of his kind In tho larger cities In tho matter of unique oxpcrlcnccs. He "goes up against" situa tions every day that could bo woven Into a novel with good effect. He gets hard knocks; ho works nil hours of tho day and night; ho mingles with all classes, from tho highest to tho lowest, and beforo ho graduates from tho "business" becomes nn excellent Judgo of human nature, all of which Is In Itself a good capital for be ginning tho broader dealings of later life. In n .School of Ills Oivn. While other boys, generally considered moro fortunate, are nt school getting high per cent marks on nlgcbra and psychology ho Is nttcndtng a little college of his own which tenches how to parry tho blows In life's prize ring. And If ho is a ecnstble boy ho comes out of the ordeal much Im proved by tho hard lessons ho has learned. Hero aro a few actual experiences re lated by Omaha messenger boys: Jlmmlo McNeill ("Mlckle do Kid") Well, I've gono up against lots of quonr ones. Ono tlmo I went out to Shccly sta tion for a bloke at tho Karbach hotel. It was ft 25-cent run, nnd when I got back ho handed mo a dlmo and told me to keep tho change. Hay Van Warmer I run over a dog one' tlmo at Nineteenth nnd Douglas streets and killed It. It pretty near killed mo, too, nnd I wns laid up for a week, but tho woman thnt owned the dog wanted to have me arrested. Earl Dennis ("Ham, Jr.") One time about 3 o'clock ono morning I had to tako a lunch enrt from Sixteenth and Farnam streets down to Thirteenth and Harney. Tho man that owned It wns sick or something. I started with It, trying to draw It along behind my wheel, but tho blame thing got away from mo and went rattling down tho hill, throwing lunch every which way. Just ns I was overtaking It n copper camo out of a doorway and wnntcd to arrest me said I'd stolen tho cart, and I had to put up a pretty stiff spiel to keep out of tho station. Shnrkey'n nie Tip. Ficd Sharkey Did I ever tell you of the time I worked a guy for n J:' tip? Well, you aee. It happened this way. He'd only been going with tho girl about a week, and I took a note out to her house on Kranklln street, near Thirty-seventh, to ask her to go to tho theater. When I rung tho bell an old dnme with spectacles and spit curls down the sldo of her faco camo to the door and I glvo her tho note. She read It, and I could seo sho was mad ull right. She asked mc to come In und wait, and in about twenty minutes sho came back with a bllllo docks In a little pink envelope nnd told mo to tako It to his nibs. Well, I wnn dead wlso that the old girl had scribbled that noto herself, nnd I was wlso that she told him to steer clear of thnt house, but I kept It under my hat, and dohvered tho pink envelope. And say his nibs was sore. "Who did you glvo tho noto to?" ho says. "I don't know a thing," I says, "Did you seo Miss er tho young Indy?" ho says, and, "I'm deaf and dumb and blind," I says. And say! I worked him that way till I mado him cough up a cartwheel; then I told him, and ho was so tickled ho gavo mo nnothcr bone. That was tho biggest touch I ever made. Then the manager told a story of Arthur Tinker, a messenger boy who was too mod est to tell It himself. Ono night Inst week Arthur wns delivering a message In nn eastern suburb, when his wheel fell In n rut nnd ho wns thrown violently to tho ground, dislocating his thumb. Although ho wns suffering lntcnao pain, ho bravely continued his trip, delivered tho message and roturned, nnd not until ho passed his ticket to tho clerk did his nervn fall. Then he fnlntcd, nnd wns sent homo In n hack. Altogether tho life of a messenger boy Is not envinble. Thero Is n bright spot In It onco In n while, but on tho wholo It has almost as many ups and downs as tho career of an elevator boy.
