JIMIERESTING EXPERIENCES ’ OF A TRIP IN FOREIGN LINOS ; (Continued from last week ) ’ Especially easy was it to live again in fancy that eventful night. Imagine that, in the midst of revelry such as we saw, the sudden roar and tumult of Napoleon’s advancing, troops, fourteen jhiles to the s<w:hwest, made “Cheeks grow pale which but an hour before blushed at the praise of their own loveliness.” Perched high on the seat of a four horse tally-ho, we drove over the same road traversed by Wellington on his way from the ball to battle that memorable evening. Out past the King’s palace, through Leopold’s famous and beautiful forest of grand old beech trees, halted at the house where Victor Hugo wrote his “Les Meserables,” stopped for a country blacksmith to replace a shoe, cast by one of our horses and incidently were royally received by a friendly French family and were shown the stock farms from which our American buyers import their fine Belgium horses and cattle. It was a sweltering hot July afternoon—so hot that a tramp over the battle ground under that blazing hot sun didn’t appeal tome. So, while Mr. Fick climbed to the top of the pyramid monument erected by the English in memory of their dead, and listened to a lengthy lecture on the surroundings. I sat in the shade with a palm leaf fan and a glass of ice water and amused myself immensely by watching the begging inhabitants of Waterloo “hold up” the tenderfoot tourists. Women went about their usual work indoors and behind then high front fences until a trolley car or tally-ho came in sight, then suddenly grapped an old rag to throw over their heads and about their shoulders, put on a woe begone look and rushed to beg. One old man had a special limp and a crippled pose he I assumed for each Occasion. As soon as the flood of tourists passed on ' he jpirned and walked gaily back to wait for the next bunch. We drove back to Brussels in the cool of evening and spent the three hours’ wait for the 11 o’clock express at Brussels —“Coney Island” —two or three blocks at the west side of the city, built up with all kinds of amusement pavilions. “Gay Paree,” the “City of Delight,” , is our next destination, from where you will here.from us later.
