Minister Lager Tells of the Advance
Made by Couutry men.


Made by Couutry men.
]. y. Leger, Haitian minister to the
United States, in an article in the
North American Review entitled "The
Truth About Haiti" endeayors to re-
flute certain aspersions which have re
Gently been directed against his coun-
trymen. The general charge against
the Haitians is that they are now less
civilized than they We're 100 years ago
and are reiapsing into barbarism. Mr..
Leger contends, on the other hand,
hat any impartial observer Of Haiti
IS Ill reach bur one conclusion regarding
it-that 1t Is 10 worse than the other
Genital and South American republics
The proof Of Mr. Leser's contention
he seeks in the contrast between the
condition OF the Haitian negroes 100
years ago and that of Haitian citizens
to-day 4 century ago they were
-laves, treated Ike beasts, compelled
10 work Ike machines in the fields;
ihey could neither read nor writes

saves are lawyers, doctors, physl-
clans. architects engineers, sculptors,
hemis,s, ski ell art ms, shrewd bust
ness men. good laborers and the people
are striving with success quite conf
mensurate with their opportunities TO
attain the practical ideas of modern
civilization.
Haiti could not rely on any outside
help in building up It's government and
educating its citizens, the majority OF
whom were men who had just emerged
from slavery. The Haitians had then
TO create all instrumcntaities Of gov
eminent and administration, from
statesmen to policemen. Their detrac-
tors do not seem to have ever thought
Of the difficulties they had to over
come. On the contrary. they affect to
believe that my fellow countrymen, to
show their ability to govern them
selves, ought to behave Ike saints ana
to be perfect models OF virtue; forget
ting Intentionally that some nations OF
the old world are still struggling TO
reach the best form of government ana
are from time to time subject to appal'
ling scandals. However from the out
set the responsibility of the Haitiahs
was great their recognition of thls re-
sponsibillty helped them to work OUT
their destiny. Their cities ard towns
have been rebuilt They cultivate
nowadays, their own properties lot

 YALE'S FIRST PRESIDENT.

His Statue Bedecked in Ludicrous Man .$st~- ner by Unknown Parties.
 When the dawn broke on the Yale campus yesterday morning the earliest risers beheld the statue of Abraham Pierson on its stone pedestal gazing down on the surrounding campus as it has since it was first placed there. The face of the statue of the first president of Yale wore the same stolid expression, but cooked over it's left ear was der by hat and spread across its shoulders a black cape. The hat was dented and had the air of chapeau that has seen better days.
 It is not known as certainty who bedecked the statue, in it's modern garb but it is supposed to be the prank of some men who were returning to their rooms Wednesday night.

 be in Texas.
 A letter from Waco, Texas, signed by a man named "Podgett," has been re- ceived by the family of William S. Whitwell, of New York, the Harvard student and athlete who has been miss- ing for some time, which may aid in clearing up the mystery of the young mans disappearance. The writer says he was called upon recently by young man, answering Whitwelrs description who represented himself as a student at Harvard. The visitor, MT. Podgett says, claimed to be the son of a promi- nent resident of New York, and added that his father did not know where he was, and that he did not want him to know.
 Whitwells played guard on the Har- yard football team against Yale in this city last November.
