M. Millet's Lecture Yesterday.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

M. Rene Millet gave the seventh of the Hyde lectures under the auspices of the Cercle Francais yesterday afternoon in Sanders Theatre on "La France en Tunisie. Essai d'entente avec I'Islam. L'esprit du protectorat."

M. Millet began by describing Tunis and its surroundings, the strictly religious Mohammedan inhabitants of which naturally resented, he said, the intrusion of Christians, so that it was only after a hard struggle that the French established themselves there. Once established, they gradually won the good will of the Mohammedans by their policy of conciliation and their system of education.

Since the protectorate of France has been established, the people have prospered, their commerce has increased, and their general condition has been bettered.
