PROFITABLE BUsINEss-On Saturday evening,
"blind bcggar," from Philadelphia, one of the
class who can sell rs well anybody when they
not plying their vocation, was arrested on oul
streets for drunkenness. He had come down from
Philadelphia the previous evening, and during
Saturday had procured about 50 in pennies i've
cent pieces and small notes, by begging, besides
getting food enough to satisfy his hunger. He is
one Of the numerous classes of professional beg
gars. who spend their entire time in this repre-.

ExCITEMENT-Quite an excitement was occa.
stoned on Market street, on Saturday night by an

A CARRIAGE BUILDERS NATIONAL AssoCI-
ALTON was recently organized in New York
City, with the object Of promoting the com
mon interests of the trade. The Association
is to meet annually, and local organizations
are to be formed, and in the language of the
Hon. G. r. Kimball, the President Of the
Association, "the hub is formed, and ready
to receive as many spokes as may be willing
be driven into it, Committees were appon-
tee, with instructions to consider the adoption
States the definition of what constitutes the

Carriage Builders representatives were pres
ent from all parts Of the country, including
z. p. kimball, of Maine, and Clement Stude-
baker. of South Bend, Indiana.
the carriage manufacturing business IN the
United States has been extensive. In 1910
there were 90 carriage establishments in the
United States, employing 2274 persons, and
producing annually IL, ,331 carriages, amount
ing in value to $1,708,741 In 1850 there were
and producing carriages to the amount of
$12, 100000. In 1860 the number of establish
mentS had increased to Z ,234, employing oyer
81 900 hands and producing carriages valued
at $50, 100000. In 1870 there were 11,044
establishments, employing 81, ,294 hands, paying
out $21, 1854 ,355 for labor, and producing S0O,-
600 carriages valued at $67 ,406, ,54S. 1t is esLi-
mated that during the season of 1872 there
were one million carriages built, valued at
one hundred millions of dollars, aud that
about $4,000 hands were employed in the
manufacture, These figures give one carriage
to each forty persons in the United States,
but no estimate has been made of the sleighs
of various kinds manufactured, of which large
numbers are used. No account has been
taken of the persons and capital employed in
the extensive manufacture of aXles, springs
wheels, bows, joints, clips, leather, cloth, and
many other articles made in parts and that are
now purchased i'll an incomplete state by
