 As tale of the Spanish War days there is the folIowing All of our men were good at accNmuIatinE horses but within our own ranks I think We were

Hay ing thus shown at the outset the neCeS- sary formal courtesy, my visitor, an old and valued friend. proceeded to explain that a nephew of his had enlisted in the Marine Corps, but had been absent without leave. and was threatened with dishonorable discharge on the ground of assertion.

On one occasion he had a bill to appro- priate money with obvious impropriety, for the relief of some miscreant whom he styled one of the honest yeomanry of the state. When I explained to him that it was clearly unconstitutional. he answered, Me friend. the constitution don't touch little things like that and then added, with an ingratiating smile.
