There are several houses dealing exclusively in rags whose business ranges in m $100,000 to $500, 000 a year, while there are several smaller ones whose custom is by no means contemptible, but, on the contrary. in most cases quite up to the average volume reached by the more assuming retail dry goods, hardwares, boot and shoe, clothing and grocery stores. a great many of which think they are doing remarkably well if they have a business of from $25000 to $50 000 a year. There is not a rag dealer in the city, and there are thirty-six of them, according to the direc- tory, that does not control a business of frrm $5 000 to $10,000 a year, and a note‘ WU‘thy peculiarity of the trade, they claim, is that there is hardly ever, if ever, any one in it who fails or compels a Cl mr‘romise with cheated creditors, altrough they have to pay cash for their goods evrry time, carry a stock ranging from $1,000 to $100,000 01' more, and sell on two, three, four and six months’ credit. The Pickers up of Unconsldered 'rn flea In the Street. Notwithstanding some drawbarks and cc- casicnnl per‘orls of stagnation the rag busi- ness of the United St .tes, particularly of the west, appears to be flourishing, and has reached wonderful proportions both as to quantities handled and in value. The mis~ erable creature with bag or basket in hand collecting what can be found in the alley- way does not seem much in the world's concerns. but to the wholrsale dealer the ragged, bent old collector is a much more importart item in the business community than many might suspect. In these days of vast figures we are not apt to be very much surprised when we hear of a wholesale dry goods or hardware firm doings business agar-mating $1,000 000 a year, but that a mere dealers in rags and wastes could under any circumstances reach that figure does seem a litI le stas tling. It is nevertheless the case, and is but another illustration of the wonderful business spirit and possibilities of the great west. There is one firm of rag and waste dealers in this rity doing a business amounting to $1 000 000 a year. and the business is con- stantly increasing. There is another firm The new. building is an imposing struc- ture extending three bundled test on South Orange avmue, with two wings of nearly equal extent.

Grant,” and endeavoured to marshal his companions into line. The curious scenes were repeated when the patients arrived at the new building, and the great- est tact was needed to keep down the excitement. Some of the patients screamed the names of their relatives with delight when they saw the new structure, and evi- dently thought they were returning to their old homes. One woman looked around curiously and then, putting her hands on herlips, said: “This will do very nicely. This Is my house and I want it distinutly understood.” Some of the patients were delighted with the elevaur and w;nted to May in it and ride up and down, while others shrank in terror from it and had to be taken up_the stairs. Scenes Attending the Transfer of Pa- tlents of an Insane Asylum. "We are all going to heaven, girls ; come on ; get in quick." A big furniture van stood in the yard of the old Essex county insane asylum at New- ark yesterday afternoon, and the remark was made by one of the patients as she sprang in and took a seat The other fe- male patients caught the in-‘cction, and, to the great relief of the doctor and attendants followed like a flock cf sheep until the van was filled. Then the van was driven to the new asylum buildings, on South Orange avenue. near the limi's of the city, About 150 women and 100 men were removed, and although excitement ran high among the in- mates of the asylum from the moment the change was announced, the only trouble ex- perienced was with one woman who insisted that she owned the old building and refused to leave it. A dozen trips of the van ac- onmplished the removal of all the inmates. With some of them a great deal of per‘ suesive talking was required toget them in- to the van, and one of the male patients would get in only on being told that tiny were going to church.
