Chinese Trade with the Philippines.
/ know several Americans who ex-
pect to work the Chinese markets from the
Philippine Islands. They are going to buy
ply lumber for the Chinese railroads. and
especially for Chinese undertakers. One Of
the big markets for lumber in China is the
coffin market There is nothing for which
the people pay much as for collins
They often buy them long before death,
and keep them in their houses as parlor
ornaments. The coffins are made very
thick, and those manufactured from hard
wood bring the highest prices. Today a
great part of the coffin wood comes from
Fuchau, between here and Shanghai Large
trees are needed and lumber Of this kind
Is scarce.
The new railroads will create q great
demand for ties and bridge-building ma
terials. If the mines are to be developed,
they will have to be timbered, and Il will
take forests to supply the wood needed.
Our cotton trade Is steadily increasing.

north China than any other country. and
our consuls think there is no reason why
we should not have the bulk Of the fine
cottons which are sold by the English and
Germans throughout the Yangtse valley
and south China.
At present our trade is confined almost
to the north. Just before the war began
we were selling more than half the cotton
goods imported at Tien Tsin. and there is
a steady increase in the sale of American
drills and sheetings in Manchuria and other
parts of north China. We are also selling
a great deal of cotton to Corea, and the
possible extension of the trade Is un-
limited. What our big cotton factories
need is to have men here studying the
markets, and to keep the factories at home
posted on just what the people want and
how it should be packed.
Packing Goods.
One of the great troubles with the Amer
lean products shipped to China is in the
into the interior, and the goods should
be shipped to the nearest port from where
they can be transferred direct to the peo
pie. A large yart of interior China is
mountainous. Thousands of tons of goods
are carried over the country on wheelbar-
rows, on small boats, on pack mules and
on the backs of men. Men either push or
haul the boats, men and donkeys propel
the wheelbarrows. and pOrters go bent over
loaded with goods. The best package Is
one of from 100 to 200 pounds weight, so
put up that 1t will stand the weather and
knocking about.
AS to most articles. the method of pack
ing has much to do with the sales. Things
packed in tins are more desirable because
of the tin. There is a regular business all
over China in secondhand tin. Coal Oil Is

ed That Coveted Honor.
From the Philadelphia Press.
Richard, | am told thee has been dane
ing with the queen. 1 do hope my SON.
thee will not marry out of meeting"
The good. old-fashioned Quaker simplic-
ity and distrust of royalty We're never bet
ter exhibited than in these words of the
mother of the late Richard Vaux They
were her first greeting to him on his re-
turn home from the court Of ST. James
after his memorable exploit at the court
ball in Buckingham Palace when he at
tanned the distinction of being the only
American who ever danced with Queen
Victoria.
1t was In 1897. Mr.. vaux's position as
secretary to Mr.. Stevenson, United States
minister to the court of ST. James. was in
itself a noteworthy one. and brought him
at once into social prominence in London.
but his exceptional personal attributes, his
brilliancy of conversation, charm Of per-
son, exquisite manners, elegance of diction
and gailantry of carriage made him the
beau ideal of a court cavalier and a well
come guest in the houses of the nobility
where he was received and welcomed with
open arms. No one, therefore, was greatly
surprised in court circles when 1t became
known that the young queen had singled
him out for a signal honor, and had COM
manded that he attend the court ball at
Buckingham Palace, which was to be given
in honor of her coronation.
When, however, the night of the ball ar
rived. and the queens cotillon" set was
formed and the guests beheld Richard
Vaux, arrayed in his brilliant court cos
tune, take his place in 1t, position that
was supposed to be reserved for royalty
alone, there was surprise and excitement
indeed. Then the music struck up and the
gallant young American threaded his way
through the intricacies of the royal dance
bearing himself with air of grace and
confidence that was wonderful to behold
The queen was seen to smile in gracious ap-
proval as he took her hand and led her
through the evolutions of the dance. And
there was not a man present who would
not have given a coronet to win SO coveted
a distinction.
After that Mr.. Vaux's career was series
of brilliant social triumphs. In his cam
didacy for Congress. in 1890, certain voters
in his district resented his having danced
with the Queen of England. and used the
fact against him as a reflection on his
democracy.
