Battery Is reached and hundreds of sailors

lounging around, sitting on the benches. or
even sleeping ON the lawns, the worst side
of New York life Is seen. The worst beg
CARS of New York are the ones VINO have
seen better days. and after looking them
over the conclusion Is reached that all
have seen better days. Their present con-
Ntion may be traced to many causes. but
1t Is seldom that misfortune plays-or has
played-a hand in this game. Drink or

their downfall. One Of the unfortunate
men who really appeared to be truthful
told the visitors that he had lost his wife
and three children within one month, and
during the fifth week he had lost his busi-
ness through the dishonesty Of hds partner.
Within the next month he was taken i'll Of
scarlet fever, and met with other reverses
and misfortunes for the next two years. He

There are panhandlers from the west,
and in appearance they compare most ia
vorably with the average clerk reared in
the metropolis. In physical appearance
they are not by far, as ill-conditioned as
the veteran beggars Of Park Row, but they
are just as experienced as their compan-
ions in the art of aims, graft and the con"
games The modern panhandler arrived in
New York in the early nineties, and the
police say he came at the conclusion Of the
Chicago's worlds fair. For time, In
order to fight them successfully, there was
organized in the metropolis a special police
squad The panhandlers work in gangs,
and they have a special club house, where
they meet to discuss the affairs Of the day
and their plans for the morrow. In case
a pal Is arrested they join forces to help
him out.
The beggars are divided into many
classes There is the bogus philanthropist,
the car-fare beggar, the panhandler, the
cutler. the beehive CRATER. The philan-
thropic beggar asks aims on behalf of in
situations. and appropriates the contribu-
tons for his own use. The car fare beggar
