There hun- dreds and hundreds of acres are planted with the vines, and the harvesting of the grape crop is the 000npntion of the people for miles around the two principal ship- ping places, Penn Yen at one end of the lake and Hammondsport at the other. Just as in the wool section expert shear- ers can he found, so are there men and women who make a business of cutting, sorting and packing the grapes for market. The usual way for the crop to be sent to New York is for some large wholesale house to send a buyer out in the suction, who goes from vineyard to vineyard select- ing and purchasing. Tho pickers and packers then begin the work of gathering the bunches, and they, are carried to the larger packing houses of the New York firm out in the country.

It may be surprising to western people to learn that New York is the second state in the Union in the extent and value of its vineyards, California, of course, coin- ing first. There are nearly 45,000 acres in New York devoted to grap0raising. These vineyards represent an investment of about $25,000,000, and in them over 26,- 000 people find employment. Some idea of Nero York's present and future wealth from grape growing can be gained from the figures collected three years ago by the United States census bu- reau. 'The vintage of 1590 was a rare ono. In that year the grape growers of Now York sold over 16,000 tons of grapes to tate wineries, and they shipped 49,000 tons, or 98,000,000 pounds, of table grapes to eastern markets principally, while sev- eral carloads went to England. Most of those grapes were our old friends the Con- cords, which may be said to be the loading American grapes.' CHARLES WAltentn.

Sir Edmund Monson, the British etn- € b :ssado r at ► Paris, through a s, thxs zgh whom all the diplomatic bluffing concerning Fasboda has been conducted, is a tall, dignified gentleman who has been in the service of the foreign office for many years, and has more than once been in the storm center of international strife" During the stirring times just before. our oivil war Sir Edmund was sent to Washington as secretary of what was then the British legation. He was in New Or- leans when Fort Sumter fell, and saw much of the four years' struggle.. He was agent of Great Britain in Montenegro in the troublous years that followed the ac- cession of Nicholas Petrovitch, He was conn general at Pestle when Francis Jo - sin EDMUND 4ONSON. soph was called "the young emperor king."

Sir Edmund was at Montevideo as con- sul goueral when the empire of Brazil threatened to overlap the republics of Paraguay and Uruguay. He wall one of the few diplomats with whom Alexander III laid aside his shyness. That potentate became well acquainted with him at Co' penhagen. He paid him tbo great compli- inept of asking the foreign office to send him as ambassador to Russia, but Sir Ed- mund preferred Vienna to St. Petersburg. The friends of his youth were in the former capital, and the ealary was £1,000 a year more.

A LUCKY PRINCE. William of Wied. Who la to iliwrry Queen Willi elm Ina. Prince William of Wied, whom Queen Wllhclmina of Holland has picked out for a husband, is a good looking young roan of 22, an officer in the Prussian army and the second son of the Prince of Wied and Princess Marie of Holland. He is a cousin of Queen Wilhelinina. In making this choice Wilhelmina bas not made what tho court gossips would call "a good match," but possibly she looks at the question from a different standpoint, She is credited with declar- ing, "I will marry the man I love or die an old maid." So she is probably going to marry Prince William for the same rea- son that other young women marry -for love. The young people know each other very well, for the prince bas been often at the court of The Hague. As children they played together, and since they have grown up they have been intimate friends. Yet Prince William was not one of the ten princes whom the royal matchmakers picked out as eligibles. He was reckoned as too obscure. His family is an old and respected one, however, lacking only in- fluence and rich estates. That the successful suitor isan extreme- ly lucky man is very evident. As prince of Wied he would have attracted little at - PRINCE WILLIAM OF WIRD. tention in European court oiroles; as the consort of Queen Wilhelmina he will be the first gentleman in the kingdom of Holland. Only the queen herself will take precedence of him, and his place will be beside her at all court and other official ceremonies. He will share her incoine, and his children will inherit her throne. In a word, he will occupy in Holland the same position that Prince A1b'ert occupied in England as consort of Queen Victoria. Onthe other hand, be will certainly not be a real king. He may be called prince consort or he may even be called king consort. That is a matter for future de- oision. The position or Prince William of Wied will be all tho more acceptable in Holland because ho is connected by blood with the house of Orange. 7.'he prince consort's position will be a somewhat anomalous one. Although he will have the second rank in the kingdom, he will have no real authority. In this re epect an ordinary member of parliament will be more important. If he isvery tactful, he may make himself an important personage in the kingdom, as Queen Vie- toria's husband did. A Few Words About Ourselves.
