(iOTIIAMS MENDICANTS. How tho Bog-gars of New York City Ply Their Arta. An Industry That Is Imported by Tbaw Who Kaaraa-e In It Americans ot Svcreaaful Alnis gettera. The comradeship of ln'!"Tars. to which all writers on the subject of the" ncthcr-idc of life in the bivT nietropo is of New York ileli-'ht to refer, does not manifest itself at courts or po lice stations, for no individual ar rested for m .mlinaney in Xe.v Yuri: for a very Ion;,' time has ile-erilie.l himself as a lK'(r?.ir when ar r.tiiriid or arrestel. There are. alxiut lifteen hundred " professional lerrars in New Yorlt. ISejr-jriii" as a Fine art or lixe.1 science i-. not an American in stitution. Americans do not make ro.i.1 lo'irars. if such an expression may Ik used to describe ability in aim- r'ettin".'. Ilei-'trini". says the New York Sun, is a foreign iiidustrj". temporarily trunsjM.rtc I so far as this city is con cerned. There is one peculiar thin it al-.iit it which docs not find its way n ually into the columns of news panrs. The professional W'Hrs of New York lH-lonjr in groups, divided by ipie' tionsof nationality. Then' is' the Italian .'roup, the Spanish primp. theManisli (T.iup. the French "roup, t lie Piis-ian jrroup. the Poli-h jrroup. tin- s-ntli ,ii ".'roup, tlie Swedish .roup t he .reek fMiip. and so on. Kadi oi these (rrou ps has a certain place of rcn.lcvotis. and the way they operate is alHiut as follows: If a prominent Italian comes to the I'nited Mates on a visit and the newspaper chronicle his movements, it is not lonr before he is beset by Italian mendicants who claim to lie temporarily embarrassed, and to have heard from abroad of his lilw-ralily and Itcnevolc lice. A French tourist has the same experience from his compatriots, and so it is all through the list. The professional liefrjrars are close readers of obituary notices, and when a man of prominence in the foreij'n colony dies his family is pestered with importunities by bcjrirars from that country. Not very lon-r airo a well I now n New York merchant died, and bis obituary notice contained the in formation that he had been born in a certain town of Holland As soon as the Ilutch jrroup of bejrirars (Tot hold of this fact they overran the tm-uilicrs of Ids family vt ith claims f r charity anil assistance. All professional bt-jrirars in New York read the published newspaper accounts of accidents of an unusual character, and when some niemlicr of a family has met his death in a H-culiar maimer they profess, to members of th family to have suffered from a similar atllictioti. and hope to stimulate their (Tenerosity. These mendicants (to alitiiit their work of aliii'.irettinff systematieall v. One (rroiip does not interfere with another. Facts learned by one mem licr of a (Troup are at the earliest op portunity communicated to the oth ers, and thus, almost automatically, these bef(Tars descend from all parts of the city on a common object of at tack. They evade the provisions of the law rejrarilinjr mendicancy bv piosccutinir their demands within doors, and not on the streets. They are careful alxtut this, for the distinc tion which many persons would not observe is a vital one in law. The (Treat majority of New York pro fessional bc(T(Tars are intern pcrate, and the larirer amount of what may be de scribed as their earnings is expended iu drink. This fact docs not comport very well with their known system and precision in securing victims for at tack, but it can be easily explained when it is stated that the best organ ized (Troup of foreign-born mendicants come from countries where drinking is (Teiicral. but intoxication is rare. The I'nited I 'liar i ties organization has about driven out from the tield of activity the Kii(Tlish-spcakiiisr Wjrars, as a class, in New York, but t he forei-rn-born Wfrjrars survive in unimpaired numbers, and seem to flourish, despite the hard times.

Fol.l.owi.Nii on the success attending the recent trials of the Ilcilinaim electric locomotive in France, comes the news that M.

Thk vitality of seeds is a constant source of astonishment to naturalists. A pine forest when cleared a.vay is often foil.. wed by a dense (rrowth of oaks or birches, but where the seed comes from is conjectural. liKAiNsof wheat found in Ejryptian mummy cases have been kno.vn to (Terminate after l.vinp dormant for 3 hm) years.

Many plants are sensitive to other influences than lirht. Some w ill close their leaves on beinjr carried in a cart. The jolting- seems to disturb their equanimity, though after a time they liecome apparently unconscious of and insensible to it. Visitor "Is your son taking a Terr thorough course in colleg-e?'

"You really must iro out now," said the madman, as the breathless SHaker paused 'with a last despairing-effort to recall another name: "you have prayed for every one of them." "Kut we have forgotten the house of peers!" cried the victim, with fresh hope; "you cannot insist on h avino them out altogether. At least, let me pray for the dukes." "Only for the dukes, then," said the mailman, reluctantly.
