HAITIAN RULER
IS REGENERATOR"
Title Voted General NOrd
by Parliament.
ALSO GETS FINE MANSION
Suspected That President Suggested
That the Honors Referred to
Should Be Conferred.

PORT AL PRINCE, Haiti, Aug. 2S.-
Gen. Alexis Nord, who has been Presi-
dent of Haiti since December. 1902. has
just had conferred upon him the title
of "Regenerator of the Country" by
parliament That body has also voted
him a residence worth s., 600. Both acts
we're inspired by "a desire to recog-
nize services Nord has rendered the
republic"
While there is no immediate prospect
that this act viii arouse effective criti-
cssm here, disinterested observers IN
and out of Haiti viii be inclined TO
wonder what called it forth. Perhaps
the best reason would be found in Presi-
dent Nord's own desires
II is more than suspected that he
suggested TO parliament that testi-
monials. both honorary and material,
10 the success of his administration
would be appropriate, and. since parlia-
ment is reasonably well assured of the
loyalty of the army to the executive.
there was no objection worth speaking
of either to the title or the gift.
Has Kept Firm Hold
This is not to intimate that the Nord
administration has been unusually OBJ
jectionable On the contrary. since he
ousted Boisrond Canal. the temporary
successor OF Tiresias Simon Sam. from
the presidency late IN 1902. General
Nord has maintained firm grasp upon
affairs.
1t is true that his government, like
that of his predecessors, has been be-
set by clamorings of foreign debtors.
and the generals imperial impaties.SS
has led him, upon two or three occ2-
sions. to Jail citizens OF other nations.
thus bringing the country to the verge
of serious difficulties.
The people of the United States are
wearily familiar with the many COM
paints of Haitian contumacy fled a.
Washington by and through Minister
Powell
Haiti Fairly Prosperous.
Nevertheless. Nord has kept domestic
affairs reasonably quiet. and the coun-
try has had fair amount OF pros
perity as a consequence
The date and circumstances of Cen
erai Nord's birth are not known to
biographers. Indeed. II has been hiTiteSi
that the general himself is not sure
when or where he first saw the light. \
local authority asserts that the time
was the year 1911. but. as that would
make the general ninety-four. the as
sertton can hardly be accurate

tumultuous experiences. ACQUIRED in ali

you look for them.

"Oh, the girls can do lots of things,
but boys can't do anything"
Oh, yes they can! I know it's yery
hard indeed for little boys to keep
still any time, / know that:
You can tell that boy is very i'll.
If he's wide awake and is keeping
still,
But earth would be-God bless the
noise!-
A dull old place if there we're no
boys"
Yes. indeed! So it would! And
yet, even little boy can keep still
when mothers head aches or little
sister is asleep or auntie is sick.
Can't he? Oh, both the boys and
girls can do so many, many shiney
things, and [ need YOU to write and

To THE BOYS AND GIRLS.

Mrs Ransier Writes Especially to The
Progressive Farmers Young People.
The Laugh-a-lot boy is a gay little
lad
Who lives in a gay little place,
Where all the good people who meet
him are glad
For lust looking into his face.
And the birds that sing there from
the dawn until night,
Marble only such songs as give peo-
pie delight
Sing to add to the joy
Of the Laugha-lot boy,
Each with all of its glad little might.
Oh the Laugh-a-lot boy always runs
to obey,
And never is rude or unkind,
And only good people go smiling his
way,
And woes never darken his mind;
The Laugh-a-lot boy is a gay little
tad,
Who has many more joys than the
BOYS who are bad
All the winds seem to go
As he wants them to blow,
And his laughing makes everything
glad.
