more and New Orleans to Jamaica, Cuba
and various Central American ports, and
bringing back bananas by the million
punches during every month OF the year.
Though the largest shipments are received
during the summer months, when they
can be more economically ripened, the
banana is the one fruit that Is always in
season.
Few bananas are raised within the linn
its of the United States, only the extreme
southern portions of Florida and Cali
fornia being available for their cultiva-
tion; but with the over-increasing faciIi-
ties for their importation they are becom-
ing so plentiful that new and hitherto
undreamed OF uses are rapidly being
found for them. A banana meal which
will keep as long as wheat -four and make
an infinitely more nutritious bread, is
promised for the immediate future. Ba-
mana sausage and banana beer have sue
cessfully passed the experimental stages.
Banana skins contain tough fibre from
which the finest OF cloth can be woven.
The Juice yielded by these skins during
the process OF extracting their fibre can
be used either as an indelible ink or
fermented into good vinegar.
Gould anything be more contrary TO our
pfeconceived notions than bananas as a
food for babes? Yet Only last Summer
was introduced to a perfectly well, sturdy
and rosy-cheeked little chap year old
who, so his parents assured me, had never
tasted milk, and had. during the first six
months of his life, been led wholly on
ripe bananas.

GOMEZ AND MACEO.
Anecdotes About The Two Men Who Are
Leading Cuban Patriots.

Leading CUBAN Patriots.
letter received from one of the secre-
taries of General Maximo Gomez relates
the following two stories illustrative of
the methods OF Generals Gomez aud
Maceo:
In the latter part Of March Gomez and
his array entered the coffee plantation Of
Mons Debeche, rich trenchman, whose
home is in Havana. Mons. Debeche was
on his plantation when Gomez arrived,
and gave the patriot general cordial re-
ception. Gomez asked the planters per-
mission TO write a few lines in his Office.
and he gave orders at the same time to
one of his officers TO seize 90 horses be-
longing to Mons. Debeche. The French
man protested holly.
81 am foreigner, General" said he,
"and you ought TO respect my property.
My government will protect me. T"
"I am not general for the foreigners,
sir" Gomez answered coolly, "as the
Cubans are not yet recognized. The
Spanish government says that ! am a
bandit. Therefore your government will
have to claim damages from Spain, as
Spain is unable TO prevent bandit over
running the whole island of Cuba"
After saying this the general went to
the office to write his letters. Mr.. De-
beche, with Characteristic French cour-
tesy, left him alone. An hour later he
was summoned by the general
"Sir," says Gomez, II have withdrawn
the order to seize your horses, and ! wish
you to tell me whether i or my troops
have done you any harm"
"No harm at Gil, General" answered
NJ Debeche.
"Now," continued General Gomez,
"when a Spanish column passes .his way
please note the difference between Span
ish belligerents and Cuban bandits, and
let your government know it,"
At Hayo, Colorado, in the province of
pinar del Rio. French woman, Madame
Bernard, complained 10 General Maceo
that Cuban soldier had stolen IS pieces
of gold and some jewels belonging TO her.
Maceo asked Mime. Bernard TO what
corps the soldier belonged, end upon re-
ceiving her answer made oil the men of
that corps stand In line before her. Nine.
Bernard picked out the thief, and the
10 gold pieces and the jewels were found
in his poces Is. Maceo returned them TO
their owner and ordered tie culprit
hanged. The sentence was executed
forthwith.

From Mr.. Monroe message to

We owe, therefore, it to the can.
dor, and to the amicable relatives
existing between the United States
and the Allied Powers to declare that
we should consider any attempt on
their part to extend their system to
any portion of this hemisphere as
dangerous to our peace and safety.
With the existing colonies or de>
tendencies of any European power
we have not interfered and shall not
interfere, but with the governments
who have declared their indepen.
dence and maintained it, and whose
independence We have, on great con>
sideration and just principles, ac-
knowledged, We could not view an
interposition for the purpose of op-
pressing them or controlling in any
other manner their destiny (by any
European power) in any other light
than as a manifestation OF an un.
friendly disposition toward the
United States.
