the stable Sunday morning, aged not
less than 81 years. He was born and
reared at Lexington, KY, and was 10 or

been in active service until about 4 years
ago when Mr.. Randolph virtually re-

had, however, done little blowing

other odd jobs now and then-work he
seemed to enjoy as reminiscent some

hoard the schooner Lagua at Pier 3,
East river, the other night.
"He was badly hurt, but swan
ashore. This wasin April, 1899. The
terrier passed several Spanish ships
and, hearing Mrs. Bayles and me
speaking English aboard the Laguna,
lay down on the pier and cried.
"Mrs. Bayles found a bullet wound
on his back. Size washed out the
wound and we brought San Juan to
Philadelphia, intending to give him

900, 900 gallons were produced in Eu-
rope and 2O6,0O0,OO0 gallons in
America, while the British empire,
with vastly larger area than Europe
and embracing every variety of soil
and climate, is only represented by a
production of some 100000 gallons,
or a four-hundredth part of the
whole. France, with ayield of / ,482,-
100000 gallons, stands easily first as
the leading wine producer. Her con-
tribution was about half the yield of
all Europe and considerably more
than third of that of the entire globe.
