BUTTER AND CHEESE EXPORTS.
months ending January n
Decrease........... 2,2O3, 957

-t-CoiS'' 1''Ac'SCS
Here is another instance where
we find that, with the markets of
the world wide open to us, our
export trade of American products
has fallen off, the shipments of
butter during the seven months
showing a decrease of 2,2O4,ooO
pounds and the shipments Of
American cheese showing a falling
off Of 4,5I4,ooo pounds. The
buyers of dairyproducts in foreign
countries must have forgotten that
our wall of Protection has been
broken down, because we are
hardly letting ourselves out to
such advantage as the Free-Traders
promised the farmers when solicit
ing their votes before election.
There is no theory about our
dairy export trade. tits a condi-
ton that confronts American
farmers-a condition of smaller
exports under a Free-Trade Tariff.

4 VERIFIED TRIBUTE
To Worthy and Prominent Citizen,

To Worthy and Prominent Citizen,
 "Muslc Trade" the largest and most Influential paper published in the in- terest of the piano and organ manu- tacurers in this country, in it's current issue, contains a large and admirable portrait of MT, Bernard Shoninger, the highly respected piano manufacturer of this city, Under the caption of "The Head of a Venerable House." the fol- lowing appears:
 At the head of a great and still rap idly growing business, a man who has made a success of his life work, win ming universal respect for his progress slveness, energy, shrewdness and busi- ness methods, is the original of the above, MT. Bernhard Shoninger, found CT and head of the great piano manu- featuring firm bearing his name. Like many another prominent man of this progressive age, MT. Shoninger is the architect of his own fortune" He came to America from Bavaria, where he was born, with very little money, but large stock of energy and busi- ness shrewdness. He made his way successfully, and seeing opportunities III lne music traue, ne rounded the B. Shoninger Organ company. From comparatively small beginnings it grew to great proportions, Then came the manufacture of pianos, and in this line the success of his house was a steadily increasing one. The B. Shoninger company's factory at New Haven, Conn.,, is now known as one of the largest piano producing plants in the United States. The Shoninger pianos have a high reputation as intruments of sterling musical qualities. MT. Bern hard Shoninger has made his way to his present high commercial and social position by his unswerving purpose, un- Tagging industry far-sightedness, and the ability to overcome the difficulties and grasp the opportunities that pre- sented themselves. He is one of the leading and wealthiest citizens of his adopted city, New Haven, where his character, his modesty and his public spiritedness are held in the highest esteem."
 Those who know this veritable nes- tor of the piano trade will cordially indorse all that is written above

 ing is a Charming Feature.
 Its the pride of Connecticut" said a traveller to reporter Why do you know that this new and magnificent hotel has become famous with meteoric Tapidity. It's wonderful success. Why, the house has been full to over flowing nearly every day since Septem- ber 1. It's the largest and finest hotel in the state and has great advantage in it's location, being just out of the daily and nightly hustle, thus giving Testful quiet. It is at the Majestic where we find all the luxuries and comforts, hence the house receives the patronage of those who expect and ap- preciate being well treated I have made four visits to the house and have had the finest rooms for the price ever occupied. It contains a large number of sitting and bed rooms, en suite and single, and I observe they have about fifteen of the best families of New Ha- ven permanently located in the house It is splendidly planned for families, as all suites have lavatories and baths and the rates are very reasonable for what is offered. In fact I find that every service for the convenience, con- fort and safety of the guests has been placed in the hotel without regard to expense and the cuisine is unsurpassed between New York and Boston. It is just what we needed and I am one among many others who are delighted with the hotel and are doing all we can or the road to send travellers to patron ize and encourage the house. The ser vice is certainly the most complete have met with. The house is open day and night and night watchman makes tour of the house every half hour and reports to the clerk in the office from each floor, so that people can live in the house with feeling of perfect safetY.

GAVE MELONS AWAY
Leonard Lochner Would Not Buy License to



Peddle Fruit
Leonard Lochner is farmer, so it is
not strange that he resides beyond the
city limits. Near Leonard's home is
some fine sandy loan upon which he
raised large quantity of watermelons
and cantaloupes. These we're not left to
grow UNATTENDED and rpen in the glad
some rays of the sun alone. Leonard was
always nigh with an expensive fowling
piece loaded with sandy soil, to meet any
of the disciples of universalism and when
he was at his meals Towser. the family
bull dog, was left in the melon patch.
tied to the fence to chase marauders from
the colored mans idea of PARADISE.
Yesterday the melons were deemed
sufficiently ripe to be brought to the city
and distributed to the inhabitants. A
small feejwas asked however, merely to
help pay for the time Leonard and Tow
ser had lost gathering the fruit.
Quite quantity were sold before Offi-
Ger Sparks put in an appearance and re.
quested Leonard to display his city Ii
cense as fruit peddler. This the latter
was unable to do, so he and the outfit
were taken to the police station, where
he was charged with having violated the
city license ordinance. Leonard ex-
planned matters to Justice Owens and was
discharged.
His ire was so much aroused. though.
that instead of taking out permit to sell
the fruit. he distributed the melons gra-
tuitously in front of the station, and this
accounts for the unusually happy looking
crowds on Second street yesteday about

of reaches shipped fro m Placer county on
July 5Otb, in the new Baskerville patent
ventilated fruit box. The fruit is in ex-

piece OF fruit in an enclosure of stout ma
Mia papar and using skeleton instead
of tight box. The results obtained ap-
pear to be very satisfactory. and both
box and individual wrapper are cheap,
