An Afflicted Queen.

Queen Henrietta of Belgium's recovery
NAV be described as little short of miracu-
lous, For in addition to very serious
inflammation of the lungs, matters were
complicated by a cancer OF the breast,
resulting from the bite of a vicious horse.
In fact, at the most critical stage of the
pulmonary disease it became necessary to
perform an operation involving, not only
the removal OF the cancer, but likewise of
the breast, which it had affected.
The ouerasion was a sort Of f0rlorn hope
on the part Of the physicians, and so
little did they expect that the Queen
would survive the shock of the operation
in her enfeebled condition that the last
sacraments were administered, and that
She took leave of all her relatives and
attendants.
Queen Henrietta has been in her day a
very handsome woman, oil splendid
physique and figure, and the operation to
which she has now been subjected is
likely to seriously affect her temperament
and 10 render her even still more averse to
appearance at court functions at Brussels
With all her love for horses and her
marvellous skill in training them, she has
been singularly unfortunate as far as
sustaining injuries through them is CON
cemed. Thus, on three OCCASIONS at least
has she been severely injured by carriage
accidents, the last one having taken
place at Spa. where her four-in-hand
team of spirited horses endeavored to go
on cross country expedition, leaping
hedges and bitches, dragging the car
riage. or what remained thereof, behind
them. The Queen and lady in attendance
they left in a ditch with broken arms and
badly bruised faces.
On another occasion she had her hand
very badly bitten by vicious horse. and
was forced to wear it in sling for several
months.
Although but little known outside Bel
pium, perhaps less SO than any other
crowned head in Europe, Queen Henri
eta is extremely popular in the domin-
ions of her husband, being the subject Of
much sympathy in connection with the
domestic sorrows which have fallen to her
share.
At Spa, where she resides during the
greater part of the year, she docs an
immense amount OF good throughout the
entire district, her generosity being as
excessive as is the corresponding close
ness of King Leopold in everything except
his questionable pleasures or his fool
hardy spcculatiOnS are concerned.

COMMERCE OF THE LADR0NES.
Their Supplies Are Mainly Obtained from
the Aus,ralasian Islands.

Some indication of the actual trade OF
the Iadrone Islands, whose commercial
status has been lost sight OF IN pup
liShed statistics about the East, is gwen
i'm figures included in recent report ef
Chief Frank H. Hitchcock, OF the Foreign
Markets Section of the Agricultural! De
parfment, on the trade Of the philippines.
Tho figures fragnleHtary at Lcst- are
mostly combined with otiicr islands. II IS
shown that the imports into, the Cniteo
States from the IadroneS and the caro-
line Islands combined in 1897 had value
of sj,0.7: i'm 1887, 10 years previously, OF
So. .S2S: and 1899. OF Se42. .4SI. The mer.
chandise comprehended i'll the last-nam{d
figures, however, was sugar wh'ch Erob-
ably came originally from the Philippines.
The only available figure as TO exports
is tor 1870, when the exports from me
United States into. the LaGroncs and the
Carolnes footed up Sc, ,s3l. What trade
the Ladrones have is naturally mostly
with other Pacific islands. Western Aus
tralia exported to Guam, in the Ladrones,
S1OS, ,4Si of domestic merchandise IN 1887,
and hut 3l5. .1S3 i'll 1882. and foreign mer-
cIandise fuctuated from Sl5 IN 1871 10
S2t3 in 1894. The total exports from West
ern Australia to Guam in 1896 were
sl37 ,430.
increased from SS,9!5 OF domestic mer-
rlIandise in 1889 to S15.l45 in 1891, and IN
1896 the foreign merchandise exported 10
Guam as only S19. :, =,
Although Victosia's commerce with the
Philippines during 1SS797 was extremely
small, exports ofconsiderable value were
sent to Guam. In 1S0, 96 the average an
nual value Of the merchandise, foreign
and domestic, shipped from Victoria to
Guam reached as high rs 1858 ,209: Do
mestic merchandise shipped from Victoria
into Guam is mainly wheat, wheat flour,
and biscuits.
The totn! exports TO Guam from Queens
land were 81, ,7S9 in 1899 and $50 i'll 1870 of
domestic merchandise, and of foreign nier-
chandise lust $40 in 1892. New ZEALAND
does a better business, her shipments to
Guam footing up s1i, ,53l in 1893 Of domes-
tic merchandise and S63 of foreign mer
chandise in 1896. This foreign merchan
disc in 1895 scored only So. Oats, wheat,
potatoes. and lumber were the principal
of these export items.
