HEAD OF A NUMEROUS FAMILY
John Chandler IL Father, GRANDPA
Their and Grsat-Grandfsther
60 iG2 Persons.

To be the head Of a family Of 1852 per-
o Is a record seldom falling 10 the
lot OF man. But such Is the case with
John Chandler, who resides In Allen
county, Ky.
This gentleman Is the father OF 20
children, 81 Of whom are now living
and have families. These 81 children
have an average OF five children TO each
family, thus making Nj. Chandler the
grandfather Of los persons. But this
Is not the full extent Of his offspring
for he has IS great-grandchildren- Sc
Il will be seen that Mr.. Chandler stands
paterfamilias Of lean achievement
rarely equAled.
Mr.. Chandler Is a remarkable man
in several other respects. Although
rs years Of age. and residing in the hflI
! Of Allen county, he reads current liter
ature and keeps himself informed OF
the leading topics Of the day. He is ar
expert rife shot, and spends q great
deal OF his time squirrel hunting.

Only the great dePth Of the canyons

the torrents which foam and roar
through the gorges in winter. Neither
words nor pictures can do justice to the
wildness and immensely Of San Glenn
snte's topography In general. The
depth Of the canyons, the broad ex'
panse Of the terraces, the height Of
their cliffs and the roughness Of the
coast are all belittled In any genera
view, andfgures are powerless to meas

The Giant Asparagus.

In the island OF Tenerlffe there are a
number Of curious trees, the %strangest
Of which, perhaps, Is the dragon tree.
It is a giant asparagus, but Is named
dragon because the natives say It was
once guarded by a great dragon that
was killed by a chief who watered the
tree with blood. Since that time the
tree has given forth the sap peculiarly
known as dragon blood formerly used
as a medicine, but now employed for
embalming purposes and for mixing
with paints and varnishes. The tree
grows in a singular way, the dead
branches seeming to be Of use as a sup
port for the living bloom at the top.
The new roots grow up and encircle The
tree, hiding the dead branches Of The
main trunk.-N. Y. Tribune.
