The Raymond Holmes Comedy

Thursday night and those who want
to enjoy a good laugh will do well
to go and see them. The Bailey

conclusion of an article highly
commenting the performance OF
this company, says: when the
curtain fell the audience cheered
loudly. The organization is one of
the most respectable that has ever
visited this city, and their iadylike

The countries and islands from which
this fruit was imported are Mexico,
Central America, British, French and
Danish West Indies, Cuba, San Domin-
go, Hayti, Colombia, Venezuela, Britt sh
Guiana, Brazil, England, France, Spain,
Portugal. Italy and Sicily. The traffic
possesses its full share of uncertainties
and large margin is allowed for
profits, but Spectator has got to take
his chances. The gradually increasing
use of steamers in the place of sailing
vessels is reducing the chances of loss.
The Mediterranean trade is increasing
from year to year, as well as the trade
from South America. The importation
of bananas has been doubled since 1881,
but striking offset is offered to this
increase in the very notable decrease in
the importation of oranges, the most
popular of all the imported fruits. The
deficiency seems to have been partially
made good from the orange groves of
Florida. Aside from the immense guam
tity of fruit consumed by the people of
New York City and its vicinity, which
exceeds that consumed by any city in
the world, not excepting London or
Paris, there are many shippers upon
whom the importers rely to take the
