GEORGE WASHINGTON.

There will be memorial sevlces held tomorrow evening at Library Hall in commemmoration of the 99th anniver- sary of the death of George Washington, first president of the United States: The meeting will be Presided over by Rev. Studley, and the commemorative ad- dress will be delivered by Professor $. r. McCrea. A cordial welcome is extended to all who hold in reverence the name and memory of this great and good man.
 The services will be held under the auspices of Improved Order oi Red Men and the school children. In connection with these services We quote from the Ulster county Gazette, of Kingston, New York, of January 4, 1900. g
 On December 18th, ninety-nine years ago, the last year of the last century, Mir. Goode, of Virginia, being speaker of the house, MT. Marshall, of Virginia, with deep sorrow in his countenance, and in, low tone of voice announced the melancholy event to the house of representatives. He said in part:
 "Our Washington is no more! The hero, the sage and the patriot of Amer ica; the man on whom in the time of dangeral eyes were turned and all hopes were placed lives now only on his great actions, and in the hearts of an affec tionate and afflicted people.
 ."If, sir, it had not been usual, openly to testify respect for the memory of those whom Heaven had selected instru- ments for dispensing good men, yet such has been the uncommon worth, ana such the extraordinary incidents that have marked the life of him whore loss we all deplore, that the whole Amer. ican nation, impelled by the same feel ings, could call with one voice for pub- lie manifestation of that sorrow which is SO universal.

Our Trade With China.

In a recent report to the Depart
ment of State, United States Consul
A. B. Johnson at Annoy gives some
interesting information regarding the
opportunities for increasing the fruit
trade with China, from which we
take the following:
"The condition of the fruit crop
in China has little or no effect upon
the importation. The tropical fruits
do not come into competition with
the product of the United States
and in the more northern districts,
where northern fruits might he
grown, the quality of the products,
owing to the ignorance or indiffer-
ence of the people, places them out.
side the pale of competition with
good fruits. The only exception to
this rule, possibly, consists of grapes
grown in the north of China, some
varieties of which are excellent.
There is steadily increasing demand
among the natives for foreign fruits,
whether canned, dried or preserved.
The European population look to
these imported fruits almost exclu.
sively to supply their tables. Timed
pears, peaches and apricots come
principally from America, while pre-
served fruits, jams and dried fruits
still come largely from Europe.
The American manufacturer will
not or does not meet the conditions
required. Since there are no peaches
or pears in Europe which can com.
pete with those from California, the
Oriental merchant has no choice; in
other lines he is not so restricted.
Prunes and raisins are largely used.
The dried fruit is put up in bottles
and sealed. In no other way can it
be shipped to the tropics without
great loss, as the humidity of the
climate or insects will soon render it
unstable. No fruits, biscuits, crack
ers or any other food products can be
safely shipped to Central or Southern
China without being sealed in glass
bottles or timed. The English or
Continental merchants and manu-.
facturers understand this and put up
their fruits accordingly. If timed,
the tins are either painted or var
nished to prevent rust and conse.
quent loss to the merchant. The
American manufacturer has found
market for his product without these
extra expenses, and is slow to meet
the demand; hence dried fruits, jams
and timed fruits are usually bought
in other countries, where these
necessary details are looked after.
American oatmeal finds little market
here except via England, where it is
put up in tin boxes of two to four
pounds each. If our exporters of
fruit expect to hold the market in the
Philippines or to gain better footing
in China, they should begin by study
ing the conditions and promptly
meeting them. Prices realized in
China for fruits justify the expense
necessary to put them up so as to
insure their being in good condition
