The first pianos known in America
were imported from London in 1884
by John Jacob Astor, but as they could
not stand the rigors of this climate
they soon became ruined. This fact led
to the attempt to build pianos in this
country, and in the early part of the
nineteenth century pianos made their
appearance.

Eli S Nye died Tuesday afternoon at 3
o'clock at his residence in this village 1t
had been noticeable that Mr. Nye was
failing for nearly year but it was not
until about two months ago that his
condition became serious. From that
time he grew gradually worse, although
there were times when he appeared to
be improving slightly. The worry Incl
dent to the sickness and death of his
daughter-in law Mrs Earnest Nye, at
Browns Valley, Mimi, weighed heavily
upon him, and no doubt fastened his
own end. Mr. Nye was one of the pio-
neers of this township a veteran of the
rebellion and enjoyed wide acquaint-
ance.

WOULD END THE WAR.
Preforians Believe the Transyaal

PreIorians Believe the Transyaal

PRETORIA, Aug. 9-(4:45 p. m.).-TheTe
is a strong feeling here that immediate
political measures should be taken to
bring the war, which is now degenerating
into & series of marauding raids, TO close.
The number of burghers in the field is Ger
tainly diminishing, and those who are still
fighting are held together partly by COM
puIsion and partly by the feeling that
there is not sufficient reason why they
should surrender They are also influ-
enced to a certain extent by the large
number of foreign adventurers now fight
ing with them. not . per cent of whom
were in the country before the war.
\ correspondent has interviewed several
leading Transvaalers on this subject. They
expressed the opinion that Great Britain
should annex the country al once. A rea-
sonable time would then be allowed the
genuine burghers TO surrender their arms.
If they failed to do this, the penalty would
be confiscation of their property. Notice
should also be given to the foreign adj
venturers that anyone of their class found
with arms would be sent to prison for
long term and any foreigner using arms
with fatal effect would be punished with
death
The present state Of affairs is harmful
alike to the interests OF the British and
the burghers. A stronger policy would
afford the required reason for submission
to burghers who have the best interests
of the country at heart.

SUGAR TRADE OF EGYPT.
Increase i'm Both Exports and I'm
ports During the Fiscal Year.


ports During the Fiscal Year.
George H Murphy, Vice Consul at
MagdebuTg, has sent an interesting state
ment to the State Department, relative to
the sugar trade of Egypt:
according to report of the Au5tro-
hungarian Chamber of Commerce at Al
exandria, he writes, there was consid-
cradle growth in the sugar trade Of Egypt
IN the year 1883. Both Importation and
expectation Increased, as did also domestic
consumption The amount exported was
$4,000 tons, of which 55, 800 tons went to
America, $500 tons to India and Red = 6
countries, $500 tons to England, $50 tons
each to Italy and Turkey, and $50 tons to
France. Egypt is exertiDg itself TO the
utmost TO increase its production OF sugar
which has already grown from 7.72 per
cent IN the year 1S97-9S. TO SIS per cent
in 1S99-I900.
OF the different sorts OF sugar, the most
salaoie in Egypt is 'coneesse. The sort
known as pile is fast losing popularity.
recently introduced novelty il the Egyp
tan market is Hungarian crystal
sugar, or which several thousand sacks
have already been imported in the current
year. Increased sales cannot, however, be
counted upon, as Russian sand sugar
(museovado) is also being introduced and
sold 1856 cents per 220.46 pounds cheaper
domestic consumption has increased
much more than Importation, and this de-
mand is coming more and more under the
control of the Societe des Sucreries ct
Raf1neries d'Egypte. This company in
creased its sales of refined sugar i'll the
Egyptian market from $3.50 tons in 1884,
30 to $1,000 tons in 1878. In the same
period. its expectations increased from Ass
tons TO $500 tons
In addition TO refined sugar, the Egyp-
tian market takes about 10000 tons OF
graduated sugar, half of which IS supp led
by the company above mentioned, whose
factories are capable of producing 40, 600
tons annually. By using electro ysis. the
company has considerably improved the
quality of its refined sugar, thus iucreas-
ing its popularity. Prices are regulated by
those obtaining in the Trieste market.
though the Egyptian company sells for half
a franc less, in order 10 Gbstruct import3-
ton. In Cairo foreign sugars can no long
er compete, as factories are located IN the
vicinity, while imported sugar is burdened
with railroad freights amounting to %
cents"
