Although the time was so short and there were 3&0 chil dren of different sizes to bo drilled In the Intrlcaclec oC their various dances , the en tertainment vns surprisingly good , nothing moregrnceful having ever been witnessed In any atnntour performance in Council Bluffs than several of the dances. The Women's Christian association , for whoso benefit the entertainment wns given , realized hand somely. The clectr.c . dnnce , presented by Miss Harle , Tipple , Inman and Nclllo Jones , was very iiretty , the different colored Incandes cent light : , red , white and blue , producing a no\ol effect. The Ecrfciitlne dance , by Matlle Harl , Befeie Uena and Sllrlan Ilenton , was nlw rxcpdliKly ! well done.

T , Hunter , one of the earli est , oftenest and best known populists In Pottawattamle county , was picked up and unceremoniously dropped out of the fourth- story window , metaphorically speaking , by the Fifth Ward Populist club at Its meeting last Friday night. Hunter from the first has been a Btronc antl-fuslonlst , and he fought especially hard against the Idea of Joining In with the democrats on their county ticket. One ntaht last week a meeting of the Fifth W rd club was held , at which resolutions were passed denouncing In strong terms the action of the populists of the county In fusing with tha democrats , and the resolution * were published In the repub lican organ of this city. It has since transpire ! that only three or four members of the party were present , and the rest of the club decided to make Hunter , at whose instigation the meeting was held , an example. A special meeting ivaa called for Friday night , and about twenty- live were , present. When Hunter , the secretary , read the minutes of the al leged Irregular meeting the storm broke , and a committee was appointed to draw up re-solutions denouncing Hunter ani nil Ihe rest of the Allows , that had a ham' In the previous meeting , The committee dl ' . its work , and not only was Hunter expelled from the club , but he was robbed of the lilgl office ho held , that of secretary. Mr. Hunter states that he will now go t work to down the- party which has treated him this way. He has taught schoo throughout I'ottawatlamle county for a gooi many years , and It Is fair to prccume tha he lias a good many friends whom he wll be able to influence against the ticket , A Hl _ t'rinril Coming To testify to the merits of the Garland stoves and ranges , They will be along t join the great throng alrepdy using them P.

( Special Corre- pondenec. ) It ft1 only eight hours rora London to Brussels , the pretty Jelglan capital , so well known the world vcr as a little edition of Paris. Brussels Is beautiful , and extremelri Interesting , not merely as the gay and polished capital of a plrltual nation , which boasts of the triple jenlus of agriculture , Industry and the fine rts , but for Its two peculiar ports. The new ort Is high , modern , rich , and of course rlstocr.ttlc , with all French characteristics , nd where even the French language Is wholly used , while the other port Is. low , old , queer , where dominate the Flemish traits. 'heir language Is not beautiful , It is a mixture of English , French and German , which horrible Jumble of sounds la not half 10 agreeable as the language of ( he Sioux ndlan. Yes , after Paris , that most Interesting , most nearly Incomparable capital of the vorld , and Berlin , Brussels Is one of Ihe landsomcst , best kept and most artistically beautiful city In Europe. It ts rich in Im mense palaces ot fine , old families , whose names have long figured in the history of hat north country In Its long years of strug gle for existence In some shape or other , undir first one monarch and then another , until the little state finally took Its place on he map of Europe , one which , by reason of ts location as to politics , the military and Agricultural worth today Is of no small 1m- lortnnce. There nre museums and libraries , ree schools , free galleries and gardens , parks ind promenades , rich old churches and won- erful rambles under charming arcades , like n Milan , not to speak of Its noble drives and emarkable monuments , notable cemeteries und the world famed Waterloo battle field only a short distance away. < "or style In women's dress and ele gant ellks , Brussels , after Paris , for nagnlficent , real nnd costly laces of every dnd , and for the handsomest lingerie in the world , first Is Brussels. But with all her attractions , which num- _ -er - , among others , some of the best hotels In Europe , such as Hotel do 1'Empereur , with ts costly and Indescribably elegant furnlsh- ngs , with Its handsome garden of trees and ountalns , statues , blooming flowers and ilnglng birds In the center of he house , which was once j famous convent. nnd tha swell 3ellevue overlooking the noble park and the yet nobler gardens of the king's- palace , noted as one of the richest furnished palaces n Europe. Brussels must yield to Antwerp , where vo are safely landed after a forty minutes Journey. There Is much fun Ini watching the Amer icans and Engl.sh who have not acquired even bill cf faro Krendh In their linguistic encounters. There- k big wild west sort of n show here , to which belongs about sixty Indians from the ; western plains , and did you know that thejAntwerplans and the American red mbn ' " are on speaking terms , as neighbors should be ? It Is a fact , and for once tl e Indian Is on nn aqusltty with his. white brothers. An other Interesting feature Is the wonderful Congolese village , to which we referred be- [ ore and for which stupendous enterprise tha exposition la Indebted to their farseeing ing businesslike level-headed king , ' Leo pold II , i c The -wonderful Dark , Continent promises very much , and may- some day be discovered as a rival to our ; own , American continent in Its resources. .To tho. Congo , King Leopold lias for many years ) dototsd much time , at- tentlon and money. ) His Interests there are alicady Immense , and the development of the country Is being driven at a remarkable pace , under his sagacious guidance and watchfulness. In this display here In Ant werp , which the king has personally pro vided at a private cost of something near $5,000,000 , and much personal sacrifice , Is given one of the most remarkable opportunities of studying the resources of a strange country ever presented. A CONGO VILLAGE. In this complete and you may say elaborate display tn the gardens enclosed with the Congo pavilion are to be found nearly 300 men , women and children from among the Congolese In all their natural , always known elements , the place presenting a perfect and complete African village. There Is a small lake on which they row In their flat reed or bark boats ; the dually people sing along their village streets , and there drive on their usual trades ; some try to sell Ivory ; their coarse beads of a kind of porcelain ware , strung on thick cords , very similar to the Indian beadwork of the western world. There are horns and whistles and balls of great value because made of elephant tusks ; "beau tiful" ornaments for feminine wear made of the teeth of some wild unknown beasts and mounted , some In wire , some in Iron and others in a kind of bronze material , any one as heavy as an iron bank. They comprise earrings , nose rings , anklets and bracelets , and do not vary much In size and nre consid ered very "artistic. " They also ptoduco n bead and wlrework really very Interesting , both In shapes and utility , but none beautiful. There are several belles among them whoso elaborate robing consists of a short skirt , very narrow , confined around the. waist by a coarse cord , which reaches usually to the knees , to which is added ono ot the elaborate necklaces , the anklets , too , the nose nearly always pierced and from the ears dangle great affairs. Some of the women show dreadful scars on the forehead , some on the cheek , often the arms and breast , where they have Inflicted dreadful wounds by one process or another , such tortures being a kind of be lief or religious teaching. Then there are several drilled Congolese soldiers who give exhibitions of military progress. These fel lows , of course , appear In the Belgian sol dlers' uniform. In personal appearance the Indian men and the blacks from the Congo are somewhat alike as to stature , lltheness and quickness , yet not all so. But all In nil the Indian shows a superiority. There is a quick scin tillating glance In his wonderful eye that , whllo It may mean treachery , a watchfulness never yet equaled , an alertness as to action of mind and body requiring subtle under standing by his foes would they conquer him , tbero Is also a quick , almost instant reasonIng - Ing betrayed by the keen , calm countenance that you look in valni for In the uncanny faca and Blugglsh , Indescribable , almost ex pressionless eye of the Congolese. Is it not wonderful ? To thlnfc oft the Indian as a war rior Is to use him , horse and rider a part , going like the wind-or'coming ' down on his hapless victims In ono fell sweep , or treading with the alertness of a panther the way that leads to hl annihilating completely his prey , never with but oneaim and that total , quick,1- complete destruction of his enemy , never-coujitlng on defeat. Yet , when It comes taken , .face lo fac-e , going down In the stolid silence that Is aa eloquent of courage ai Is the awful yell "with which they arouse the furies of the battlefield , the Congolese looks . 'as If he would eat on enemy. He looks iW , "pjish , he looks loss like a man , rtsre bestial In habits than any other ; a * If to.-think were to toll ; he looks ucamlable , unfatherJy. Incapable ot friendship. There is np interest in his face. He has great hands , unshapely and Im mense feet , while those of the Indian are shapely. He has no expression of the lips while the Indian has. The latter shows courage , thought and cunning by his nose while the noie and lips of the Congolese are entirely txpresslonless. The Indian women are In every way superior looking to the ladles of the Congo Free state. BELGIUM'S FUTURE KINCJ.

Length Ilia Story of Ills Volltlcnl Cnrrrr l'eel Hurl. , BROOKLYN , N. V. , Oct. 6. The following etter from Judge Gaynor , declining the nomination for the office of Judge ot the court ot appeals , has been made public : "BROOKLYN , Oct. B , 1891. Hon. J , W. Clnckley Dear Sir ! The reasons which I mbllcly assigned for not wanting to become ? ho nominee for governor precludes iho from accepting another place on the ticket , as may be seen by recurring to them , and I am therefore constrained to decline the nomi nation for judge of the court ot appeals , as grateful as I tecl for It and as much as I should like to hold n place of so much usefulness. Thl * would suffice , but I feel mpelled to amore. . I am not without ecllngr and cannot refrain from acknowl edging a vibration of pain that organizations avowedly working unselfishly for high politi cal methods and for better government should affirmatively refuse to endorse tny nomlna- ion In advance of my acceptance or re fusal. "H Is now nearly five ycnis ago that I openly objected as an Individual citizen to political methods which I deemed low , base ind unmanly , nnd to otHclul acts which I deemed heartless crimes , Involving as they did spoliation of the people's hard earned money for the enrichment of a few who 'ollowed politics as a trade and made public officials their mere tools. I felt that I had a right to speak , tor In the face of gross wrongs to the people among whom I lived , I had sat silent for fifteen years ; but , further more , from an Impulse which I cannot define , or & reason which is too Inscrutlble to assign , I found myself unableto sit silent longer. The history of the four years of effort which ensued , by appeal to courts and public opinion , I cannot now even sum- narlze , but In this hour In which my name s being tossed bach and forth by contend- ng political factions , and In which I have > rokon asunder the bonds of my perplexity and seen my duty clear , I beg to say , In tustlco to myself and I trust with due mlld- noia and without any egotism , that through out It all I was never helped In money or otherwise by any politician or political organization or faction whatever , and that f in the- end I finally prevailed , It was solely because the people , honest Sind unselfish , understood me and recognized that at all events I was trying to do right. "Owing nothing , therefore , to politicians or political organizations , and remembering that whatever 1 have done to lift go\ernment up was done as a private citizen , I do not value any office so highly as to wish to achieve it against the opposition of those whom 1 supposed would be my friends. If I thought the withdrawal of my name would .njure . Senator Hill's canvass , I would try ; o see some way to allow It to remain , for Ills recent development In the rational sen ate places him with the foremost public men of his day Between him and his op ponents , he thould , and I trust wl'.l , prevail. Though this letter takes me away from a promotion In the line of my taste , I have written without regret , for It Ueeps me In line with my pai.t. I write it to the hurt of no man , but In Justice to all men , to truth and myself. "To thine own self be true , Ana It must follow , as the night the day , Thou can'st not then be false to uny man.
