Cites a Queer Precedent.
led man

Mr.. Justice Holmes has the repu-
tation of citing more peculiar cases
from the old law books than any
other member of the supreme court.
He dug up an additional one some
time ago. to the amusement of his
associates, when it was contended in
a libel suit that the declaration was
insufficient because the offences were
not stated properly.
THAT leads me to recall a case in
the old books said the justice.
where an Indictment set forth that
he accused struck man on the head,
splitting the skull until portion fell
down on either shoulder, and the
court held the indictment defective
because it did not allege that the man
was killed." The justice observed
that it was a hairsplitting decision,
and he didn't intend it as a pun,
either.

voice exclaimed: He wins, ma am.
Did you catch him.
Catch him? I didn't try. l just
laid there and laughed, and heard
him slam the door and run down the
stairs. And my wife was so mad she
didn't speak to me for a whole day

HAITIEN RULERS.
Few Executives Since 1906 Have Re.
tired by Peaceful Means.

The republic of Haiti, the western
end of the island, Columbus called
Little Spain,' was the earliest ex-
ample of a nominal constitutional
government carried on by black men,
says the New York World.
Columbus found 100000 friend
ly Indians on the island. Slavery
killed them off, and negroes from
Africa multiplied in their stead. OF
these 100000 descendants now live
in Haiti. Nearly all are pure black;
the mulattoes diminish in number.
The whites were massacred or driven
away in the revolutionary wars.
The present republic had belonged
to France century when the French
revolution began. Slavery was then
abolished, black rebellion took
place and,the British invaded the is
land, but Toussaint L'Overture,
black George Washington, drove
them off and set up asconstltutlon.
Napoleon sent his brother-in-law,
General Leclere (pretty Pollie Bona
parties husband,) to subdue the
blacks. He had peace with Tous-
saint, seized him treacherously and
sent him to Paris.
But the same year, 1903, that
Toussaint died in prison there the
French fed from the island. Its peo-
pie were thus the first to get the
better of Napoleon, four years before
the reverses in Spain, nine years be-
fore Moscow. Leclere died in 1902.
The Spanish portion of the island
broke loose from Spain and was
Joined to Haiti, but was separated
in 1914, as the republic of Santo
Domingo.
This is the record of Haitian chief
executives: Dessalines, governor for
life, assassinated, 1906; Henri Chris
tophe, king. suicide, 1920; Boyer,
president, expelled, 1S43; Soulou-
que, Emperor Faustin t. exiled,
1858; Geffrard, president, exiled,
1867; Salnave, shot, 1869; Nissage-
Saget. exiled, 1870; Dominique, ex-
lied, 1874; Boisrond-Canal, exiled,
1876; Solomon, exiled, 1886; Hip
polyte, exiled, 1896; Tiresia Simon
Sam, ran away to Paris, 1902; Nord
Alexis, retired, 1908; Simon, depos-
ed, 1910; lie Compte, died in the
burning of the executive mansion,
1912. After Soulouque all were
were described as presidents. From
the beginning no ruler arose except
by the strong hand, ruled without
tyranny or left office by peaceful
means.
