intriguing against his successful rival
FiImin poses as the champion of the
pure-blooded negro element, while
the Presidents leading supporters are
found chiefly among the mulattos.
The danger to the white population
lies in the fact that. when the Haitians
become excited they are no better
than the most bloodthirsty savages.
EXCEPT for the brutal and autocratic
power welded by the President there
is no prstence at either law or JUS
lice throughout the island.
When not fighting or drinking the
Haitian negro spends his time lying in
the sun smoking innumerablel ciga-
rettes. All over the island the roads
made originally by the Spanish and
French have fallen into ruin, and the
thick forests in the interior are peo-
pied by depraved sayages,

GET RICH QUICK.

Schemes of this class have again
come to grief along with the gullible
investors, causing serious loss to
innocent business concerns, as is
always the case of panics in Wall St.
While this last lesson is yet fresh
in mind, it is an opportune moment
to consider causes and means to
avoid like trouble in the future.
Direct your attention to that
greatest of all Newspapers the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. From its columns
one can readily detect the trend of
currency, its lodging places, by
whom handled, uses made of it, and
final results.
Again you read quotations of
Bonds, Stocks, and Securities of
every nature, fixing Status of all
. business from the retailer, to United
States Government.
Also Current News, facts and re-
liable data covering the entire world;
all sufficiently explicit to enable
thinking people to avoid snags ard
follow the channel of success.
Its extra size and high price, is
the secret of its ability to discover,
obtain, print and serve its patrons
with all the news, and cater to wants
of people in every calling OF life.
The Weekly Enquirer for the
year 1908 has greatly increased its
Clubbing offers which now include
the most select and popular pub
LEGATIONS of the day at prices slightly
over half the regular Subscription

Do not overlook the fact that the
year 1908 promises to excel in pros
perity any of the past, and that
the Enquirer printed at Cincinnati,
Ohio, is one of the most reliable
sources of information.

BLOODY ISLAND
OF MASSACRES
Such is Haiti, in the Far
Away West Indies.
FULLY five MILLIONS PEOPLE
Have Been Put to Death in
the Little Island-HiS-
tory of Wars.

Haiti, the West Indian island, TO
which public attention has just re-
Gently been ir5cted, has been the
scene of more massacres than any
other place on Garth.
They began with the coming of Co
lumbus and the rlbbls rOut that fol-
lowed him. In "a few years its 3,OOO,-
900 of gentle, brown-slIinned inhabi-
tan,s had persisted utterly, eXtermi-
mated by fire and sword, and by
forced labor in the mines, 10 which
they were utterly unsulted. In all
history is no tragedy more colossal
and more pitiful than this one.
Next the buccaneers seized the UNI
happy island and wreaked vengeance
on the Spaniards in such a manner
that even The old chroniclers tell of
The worst Of the atrocities only in the
Latin tongue.
Presently came the French, and for
brief space there was some SEM
blance Of peace. But in 1898 the ne
grCts revolted and murdered pi dctic-
ally all thc whites, the scents anacted
resembling those that took place al
Cawnpore and elsewhere during the
Indian mutlny, but magnified thous-
andfold
On account of these atrocities
frlghtful reprlsals took place when
France, in due course. reconquered the
island. But the negroes bided theiI
time, and presently rose again under
ruffian named Dtssalimes:
This time they,did the thing thor
oughly. Not only were all thu Ep-
roptans put TO death, hut all having
any admiXture OF white blood in theiI
veins suffered a like fate. Many OF
the victims were burned alive, after
having been first tortured.
lii all, it is computed that 100000
of men, women and children have met
with violent deaths on this island OF
massacres since the intruding white
man first, set foot on its palm-fringed
strand
The present disturbances center
around the struggle between President
Nord Alexis and General Firmin, which
has been in full swing ever since the
former President, Simon Sam, retir-
ed TO Paris with as much money as he
could lay his hands on.
Both Alexis and Firmin ware anX-
ious to step into his shoes, and, as
the latter had possession of the only
warship, the Crete -a-PierrOt, it seem
ed at first as though there were lit
tie chance Of ALEXIS attaining his am
bition.
In an evil moment, however, The
Gre, e-a-PielTot held up a German V s.
sci, which was carrying arms and am
munition to the other side, and tht
Emperor William set the mailed fist
to work in the shape of the cruiser
Panther. Captain Eckmann, who was
in command of the latter, brought his
vessel alongside the Haitian ship and
ordered her to surrender.

other explanation is simply an at
tempt to explain him away.
Jesus claimed that he was the
"Son OF Man" and that thought was
not born of the age in which he lived.
He was not Jew enough for the Jew
nor Roman enough for the Roman nor
Greek enough for the Greek.
Jesus claimed that he was the Son
Of God" AS the Son of man He
was truly man; and as son of God he
was truly God. He said: "IIe that
hath seen ms hath se5n The Father"
John td:9j. Many men before and
after Jesus have tried 20 demonstrate
the existence of Gcd. H pade no
such attempt. His mission was to
manifest God in His own person
Jesus claimed that. he was Himself
The antidote for all evil. Men have
pres nted their schemes for remedy
ing earths ills, but Jesus stands alone
in presenting not a system, but His
own personality as capable of supply
ing the nesds of the soul. H. said:
81 am the brad CT life y am the
way" Il am the truth" 81 am
The life" Il am the light of the
world" Come unto Me, all ye that
labor and are heavy laden and | will
give you rest"
The mission of Jesus was TO estab-
fish Kingdom not of this world
| John 1886. Such thought was
not of this world. The Jews were
looking for a temporal king to deliv-
err them from Roman rule. IL Jesus
had taken hold of their idea and used
il for His own advancement he would
have acted like a man and his sue
cess could have been explained like
the success of Napoleon and Washing
ton. On the contrary, he opposed tn.

the establishment of a kingdom which

 The pair broke away from their masters, who were driving them to the abattolr. and took refuge on the second floor front of the tenement. It took the combined efforts of all the school children of the neighborhood, a com pany of frcmen and the police reserves to get them down.
 A farmer from out SeCaucus (N. J0 way was driving his herd of ten cows along Newark street when the trouble began. At the head of the procession was a young thing, hardly more than a helrer, trottlng alongside matronly Bossy of several summers. The pair had been doclle and phlegmatlc through
