Every once in q while for the last
five years the black veil Of misery that
is drawn SO tightly over the Congo
Free state by the Belgium authorities,
who control it, has been lifted long
enough to give the public a glimpse OF
atrocities SO horrible and too bad for
one really to believe true. The Belgium
government compels natives to gather
rubber to pay tax which the paternal
government has right to infiict in re-
turn for protection. In order TO collect
what the government iconsiders suffi-
cient amount of.rubber for the payment
of each individual tax, the native must
spend every bit Of his time working as
hard rs he can at the business. They
must bring in their rubber once q
month. Every native wears q brass
tag with bis number, and as he deliv-
ers his rubber he is checked of, and
the amount that me has gathered lie
credited to him. II stands native
well in hand to have bis baskets filed.
for those who do not are logged in q
barbarous manner. The victims, men
and women, are stretched on the
ground before the eyes of their COM
panions and walled with . heavy,
thick whip made of rawhide, the num-
Der Of lashes being sometimes into the
hundreds. These atrocities are carried
out by the consent Of the officers Of the
Belgium Guard, who are in charge of
the affairs in the Congo State. The
chiefs of tribe who refuse to gather
rubber are captured and tortured; also
women and children who have COM
mitted trifiing offenses either are
slaughteredIOr hideously manned.
Many Of the cases Of inhuman treat
ment of the natives are 50 loathesome
that they cannot be printed. There
are many hardships for foreigners in
Congo, and OF fourteen Americans who
enlisted in Washington for Congo SER
vice several years ago only three Of
them ever returned alive and were
able to reach the United States They
were so weakened from disease and
labor that they were comparatively fit
for nothing when they did return.
As told By Mr.. +. B. Huxley, one OF
the enlisted Americans: 81 would

cal treatment and doctored with 3

DUTCH DR4UGHT DOGS.
Take the Place of D0nkeys IN
BELGIUM and Holland.

In Holland and Belgium the dog occupies the
place which the donkey does in several other
countries. In the former the sight of 4 couple
of dogs dragging along a pushcart loaded with
vegetables. flowers shining milk cans is
familiar one. They trot along underneath the
cart. within easy reach Of the blunt toe Of the
sabot Of the woman. who walks behind 1t TO
guide il by the handles attached At that point
In Belgium the dogs are hitched in front as
the Russians attach their horses to their dros-
kies, three abreast. ard are guided by pair OF
rope rens fastened to 4 muzzIe about the nose
of the dog in the middle. Recently the National
cart Dog Association. organized to degenerate
the original race of Belgian mastiffs held its
first exhibition Of cart dogs. The Flemish breed
mastifis with the Great Danes. with the idea Of
increasing the size Of the cart dogs. and so So
curing additional strength, they made a mistake.
The result proved TO be- animals with weak hind
quarters and disproportionate limbs. Now they
are endeavoring 10 revive the original stock.
The women and dogs Of these two little coun-
tries another evidence that human and
canine nature are the same the world over
When one sees the white capped Belgian milk
woman with her dogs standing near a well. the
woman having battered can sluns on her fore
arm one instinctively becomes suspicious. The
suspicion IS confirmed when discovers a

persons. who turn their heads away or cover
their faces with their hands with a little self
conscious laugh when camera is pointed tow
ard them When the work is done. the boots are
drawn of. the skirt dropped and they are again
typical Dutch housewives. Nearly the entire
population-men. women and children-is
gagged in the cultivation Of the oyster.
In Holland the oysters are grown in shallow
pools through which the salt water is permitted
TO flow freely. a series of these pools is called
a park. The most important part of the work
is done in April, when the oysters spawn. Ii is
then that the collectors curved tiles about
foot long. covered with layer Of mortar, are
placed in the parks. The spawn uoating about
the water attaches itself to the collectors. and
is then gathered into boxes eight feet by TWO
feet and Immersed in the beds. In August the
collectors are taken out for cleansing" an
operation performed by women. II the autumn
they are again removed from the water, the
young oysters being the size Of a 23-cent
piece and strong enough TO live alone. y spe-
cial kind Of scissors is used TO take the oysters

which gather men and women. The latter are
more dexterous than the former in performing
the operation. Considerable skill is required, as
there is danger OF puncturing the thin shell and
injuring the young oyster. Notwithstanding
the care exercised, the loss is from 20 to - per
cent.
Not yet provided with shells sufficiently strong
to protect them from their numerous enemies
the oysters are then put in fiat boxes with bot
toms Of wire netting, called "ambulances," and
/ are covered with other boxes Of the same kind
Three months later. when the oysters have at
tanned a diameter of from two to two and q half
inches and shell thick enough to Withstand the
attacks Of their enemies, they are strewR along
the beds. TO remain until they are three years
old and have attained their full growth.

MUCH LOCAL INTEREST
IN FERRUCIO BUSONI
Celebrated Pianist VIII Be Heard
at the Propylaeum This
Evening.

Ferrucio Busoni, the greatest pianist now
in America, and considered by some critics
TO be the only rival of Paderewski, will
be heard in recital this evening at the
Propylaeum in a programme made UP of
some of the greatest works of Chopin, Bach
and Beethoven. The famous virtuoso comes
here from Chicago. where he has been Civ
ing a series OF noteworthy concerts before
large and very enthusiastic audiences
Twelve years ago Busoni played in this
country and created no more than passing
comment. In the decade and more that
has interviewed since his first American ap-
pearance he has been mentioned OCCASION
ally by the foreign correspondents OF the
musical journals, and ii was understood
that somewhere in the world there was a
pianist by the name OF Busoni who was
looked upon as genius. The average
music lover of this country knew little
about him, however, and his present tri-
umphant tour of America is therefore some
thing OF a surprise TO most people.
Busoni has not only been compared with
PaderewsN, but has been likened 10 Ruben
stein. His Chicago concerts have been
productive OF unusual interest among the
music lovers OF the Western metropolis and
his first performance I'm Indianapolis should
draw a large audience.
