The negro who accomplished all this was Francois Dominique Toussaint, later. known as “L’Ouverture” (literally “The Opening”). Toussaint was born a slave on a plantation In the {sland of Haytt tn 1746. He was a full-blooded negro, grandson of an African chief. He managed to pick up some rudiments of education while acting as coach man for his master. So readily did he acquire knowledge that he wae promoted to the post of overseer, Here his wonderful power over his fellow countrymen and his qualities as a born leader urst showed thenr selves, The island was in utter confusion at this time. French power was supreme, but Spain was intriguing for possession England also cast covetous eyes on the rich ter-itory. The population of Hayt! was made up of whites, negro slaves and free mulattoos Bach party was hostile to the other. ‘When news of the French revolution reached the Island active trouble replaced the old passive discontent. The slaves rose, petsuaded the mulattoes to join them and started a general massacre of the white men.

The name had already been given him for his prowess in making gaps in his enemies’ ranks e Toussaint had chosen as his model {n life Bonaparte, whom he greatly resembled in stature and general physiognomy, and now called himself the “Napoleon of the Blacks.” That a negro should thus make use o@ his sacred name tnfurlated Bonaparte. He sent Gen. Leclerc with 25,000 ; men to crush Toussaint, But Leclerc could make no headway against the ex-slave. Finding he could not conquer Toussaint fairly, Leclere invited —— him to a conference, in the summer of 180, caught him thus off his guard, s A . : B Ro i McCardell overpowered him, rushed him aboard a frigate and sent him to Franow i The Jarr Family S Daily Jars Rica cat es oat Vy ROY | There Toussaint was confined in a prison among the cold Jura Mountaina, He was underfed, it is reported, and foreet to wear the thinnest clothes, The ladies who have organized the Cleveland Cat Club never allow their cats to make midnight excursions or to kill rats. The cats are fed so much that they become obese and their nails grow so long as to be troublesome. For this reason the cat parlor was established with a cat doctor in charge and Cleveland's fashionable cats will be suitably maniqured. It would be much better for these cats if they were not coddled or pampered. Coddling does no one any good. It may be a pleasure to the coddler to coddle, but the > coddled one is always weakened by it.
