CANNOT LEAVE THE COUNTRY,

While in Ell Paso, Texas, the other
day the president, addressing the
Mexican officials who were present,
told them that while he could not go
into their country now, they could
come into ours and that they would
always find a hearty welcome await
ing them on this side of the Rio
Grande. The law is unwrltten, but
nevertheless imperative, that the
president of the United States shall
not leave the country during his term
Of Office Mr. McKinIey's words re-
call the story that once President
Arthur was at Niagara, being one Of a
fishing party from New York, when
it was suddenly found that he had
been driven outside the limits of this
country. Then there was consterna-
ton in certain set, members of the
cabinet spoke seriously, and the Of
fender promised that he would never
do so again. -

AMKRICUs. Ca. MAY II. 1901.


An incident which brought the mos
ture to the eyes of many occurred in
the crowded United States court
room yesterday A tall, sinewy old
man, a typical ex-Confederate veteran.
stood up to receive his sentence on a
plea of guilty of illicit distilling. He
was Mr.. Prosser of Baldwin county.
He did not seem to be of the ordinary
type Of moonshlner, and this must
have impressed Judge Speer for in a
kindly way he at once asked the pris-
oner's counsel: what can you say
for this old gentIeman?" A brief appeal
was made. The Judge was informed
that the still was a trivial affair, that
it would hold only seven gallons, and
that the prisoner had used 1t to make
little brandy from the mHscadines
gathered near his home. The still was
produced in court and verified its pal
try description. Something was said
about the anxious wife and helpless
children, and that for four years the
gray-haired man had been a brave sol
dier with Lee.
The old man could not hear the
kindly inquiries of the Judge and was
beckoned to the bench, when it was
learned that he had been member of
the famous Phillips Legion, and for
four years on many stricken fields it
followed and fought where the guidon
of Stuart and Hampton led. The Judge
said that perhaps it was not justifabIe
in legal sense for q United States
Judge to take into consideration the
record Of Confederate soldier, but for
his part he could not help it, that a
gallant soldier in war was usually a
good man in peace.
''Mr. Prosser, said the Judge, 81 wall
sentence you to q months imprison-
ment, as the statute directs, but so
trivial is your offense that I will or
der your discharge this evening when
the sun goes down. And Will say to
the marshal that, since no almanac is
at hand, I cannot tell the moment
when the sun will set, and if he should
by mistake anticipate the hour he will
not be held to very rigid accounta-
bility."
1t is safe to say every man present
approved the clemeney of the court and
shared in the happiness of the veteran.
Judge Speer said afterward that as
the aged man stood before him for SEN
tence the story of the heroic deeds of
Stuart's cavalry, in which the veteran
had taken part, crowded thick upon
him and On his memory flashed his
own reference to his comrades of the
gray in his Battle Abbey speech:
But a few remain Many are old
and worn. The untiring step which
kept pace with the forced march is
now feeble. The hand that pulled the
lanyard or guided the steed is tremu-
lous. The clear eye that once glanced
along the deadly rifle is growing dim.
But when the last of the venerable
throng
''ShalI sink to rest,
With all his country's wishes bIesf,
Then will their deeds, as they deserve,
receive proud reeompense, and then
will the nation

Poor horses will never again pa.J in
this country. If the present boom
continues it will never include tho
inferior animals which few years
ago found market. If one can not
raise animals suitable to do their
work well in the world, it will be bet
ter to abandon the business entirely.
The farmer with fair intelligence
who has good stock to begin with
never had better chance to make
money from raising good horses, and
the time to begin is when the supply
is low and the country depleted Of
stock.-E. P. Smith, in Journal Of

LEGUMINOUS PRODUCTS.


The department of agriculture pub
lished last year bulletin on lcgumi-
nous food products which will bear
another reference. People often
read and forget; therefore q good
thing will bear repeating: Peas, beans,
lentils, and many other legumes have
been popular food crops ever since
history has recorded popular customs.
These plants. or some of them, grow
in all climates and every country yet
explored. The bulletin mentioned is
intended to inform the people as to
the true value of legumes as food for
man. Meats, it is well known, are our
most expensive foods, and if cheaper
substitute can be found it will be
blessing to the poor and those who
are economically inclined. The chief
value of meats as a food is for the
protein they contain-the fat can be
easily replaced by butter, oil, nuts
and many grain foods. Legumes are
especially rich in protein. A large
portion of the human family must of
necessity eat less for the qualification
of the palate than to sustain health
and strength. Therefore legumes
may be made to take the place of
meat, wholly or in part. without det-
riment and with many actual benefits.
The following is an extract from this
bulletin:
"The green or immature pea and
bean are among our most valuable
green vegetables, and fully deserve
the place they now hold on our bill of
fare. The value of the dried pea, bean
and lentil is such that one or more
representatives are found in every
country as a staple food, and they
have been thus used from the earliest
times. They are especially rich in
protein, the heterogeneous constituent
which forms the chief nutrient of
meat, and are thus fitted to take the
place of the meat in any dietary.
Since in comparison with their value.
their price is low, they must be con-
sidered among vegetable foods as
next in Importance to bread. AS COM
pared with cereals, the legumes are
(1) less completely digested if eaten
in considerable quantities; (2) it is
improbable that they can be made in
to any form OF palatable bread, and
(3) their flavor is less generally liked,
and on that account will not be made
. regular daily food, except by people
who are forced to it by necessity. In
view of their low cost and high nutri-
tive value, however, they may prof
itably be used to greater extent
than at present.
Care in the preparation of legumes
is very important. both as regards
their digestjbility and their favor"
