Singapore is Txenspt.

From this brief description it will be
seen that the liability of Singapore to
epidemics Is much greater than that
OF Honolulu. Yet for many years Sin
gapore has been free from epidemics
of the deadly diseases This immunity
is 10 be ascribed, first, to the excel
lence of the water supply; and, second
Nv To the et~'n cent roor,1n tons regard
ing the erection Of dwellings.
The water supply is derived from an
artificial lake some miles out of the
city. This lake receives the drainage
from the rainfall on an area cOnstitut-
ing Government reservation. On
this reservation no one is permitted to
live: and the entire area is enclosed by
a cemented drain, insuring that no
drainage from outside finds it's way
into the reservoir. From the impound
ing reservoir the water is conveyed by
gravity to the filter beds, which are III
duplicate, assuring an uninterrupted
supply of filtered water From the fl
ter-beds the water is pumped to the
distributing reservoir, where it is
thoroughly aerated before passing into
the city mains.
No building can be erected in Singa-
pore without permit from the Build
rngs Inspector. This permit, for which
a charge is made, covers two points
suitability of site and conformity of
proposed building to municipal regu
latfons. No matter what the size, cost
or Kind of dwelling, the ground floor
must be OF concrete, tile or stone. and
made impervious to water. The floor
cannot be elevated above the ground,
but the surface of the ground may be
raised to any desired hight. A cement
drain, SO laid as to receive all the
drainage from the house, must be built
TO connect with the nearest sewer;
thus it is Impossible for the soil to be-
come sa;,crated with fifth from the
drainage.
There are no cesspools. All closets
are furnished with galvanized iron
pals TO receive the <1efecations. Each
morning these pals are removed, to-
gethe! with their contents, and re-
PLACED by clean ones. All the night
soil is used as fertilizer by the Chinese
planters AMI gardeners adjacent to the
cit. An incinerating plant disposes OF
the garbage.

HEAL THY CITY
How Singapore is Kept
From Plague.
House and Water Regulations that
Preserve People Of an Equatorj-
al PoTf from EpidemiCs.

Editor Advertiser: At time when
me subject Of sanitation is prominent
" before The people Of Honolulu, II
may be OF general interest to hear how
troubles Gf the kind we have just ex-
perienced are dealt with elsewhere.
The city Of Singapore is situated at
the equator. It's mean ANIMAL tempera-
ture is about so degrees Fahrenheit;
the trade-wlnds, that are SO pleasant
and wholesome a feature of our Ha-
waiian climate, are light and infre-
quent, while the relative humidity Of
the atmosphere is very great. The site
Of the city is, for the most part, an
alluvisl plain, intersected by tidal
creeks and marshes, and diversified by
dykes of granite and Iaterite
The population of Singapore is Cor
was, when l resided there, some few
years since) made up of about $50, 900
ASiatlcs and 5000 Europeans Of the
Asiatics the Chinese constitute the
( major part; then follow the Indians,
I Malays, Japanese and others. The 5000
whites include the British garrison of
some 1850 men.
The commercial interests OF Singa-
pore are vastly greater than those Of
/ Hawaii. The docks, aggregating over
/ three miles in length, are thronged
with shipping. Communication with
Asia, Europe and Australia is con-
slant Fleets of junhB ply between SIN
gapOTe and all the southern Chinese
ports. The volume of Asiatic travel
is great and unrestricted, save by
health regulations.
Cholera, plague, typhoid and small
poX are constantly present in the city;
yet an epidemic OF any of these diseases
has not occurred for many years. AS
in Honolulu, the Asiatics live in all
parts of the city, while there are quar-
tiers in which no Europeans live

Construction of Buildings.

No wooden buildings are permitted
within the fire limits. No room can
be smalle1 than certain specified size.
Terements are divided into apartments
by solid brick walls rising from ground
TO roof. and each apartment has but one
outside door, which opens upon the
street. No back doors or secret under
ground passages are possible. The in
mates cannot avoid the police. The
roofs being III ti1e> fire could hardly be
communicated from one house to
another. or even from one apartment
of a tenement to another apartment IN
the same building. No matter how
filthy an apartment might be, half an
hours use of a fire hose and pail of
whitewash would suffice to restore 1t
TO a perfectly sanitary condition.
Contrast these conditions with the
state of affairs reported by our emer-
gency inspectors as existing IN Homo
IuIu's Chinatown If-as is devoutly
to be desired-our Asiatic quarter
should be removed to another site, we
shall do we'll to take some such pre-
cautions against insanitar1on as have
proven so effectual in city so much
larger and so much more exposed TO
infection than Honolulu.

marks of the contest; they would bear
them to the end !; they had escaped with
their lives, but so as by fire.
At very early hour the people from
the outlying region began pouring into
the center of the town with which this
sketch has to do, In all kinds of convey
ances. Those who had no conveyance
and could not borrow or beg any were
only too hap y to be able to make the
journey on foot. All brought with them
provision, that they might make day of
it,
The soldiers monument had Just been
placed on its high pedestal in the center
OF the public square. 1t represented a
soldier from the ranks Of the United
States Infantry, in uniform. It repre-
sented mOre-the sacrifice that had been
freely offered, the love that had put ev-
erything. even life itself, under foot; the
deeolate homes, the mothers In black
with their heads covered. And In those
days black bad become the national dress
1t represented the untold, undreamed- of
rrers Of war that our country might
reap the blessings OF peace, that the sta g
and stripes might wave over land truly
free, y from the Lakes to the Gulf; from
the Atlantic seaboard to tbs Golden Gate.
The monument saad been appropriately
decorated on the afternoon before and
was to be dedicated that day.
When all had been finished, Dorothy
had stepped upon o platform and hung

| On the sides of the pedestal were the
names of the sons of the town, who had
fallen either on the field, starved in moi
some prisons or in hospital. Heading
this list was name of which the town
felt Justly proud, the name of the brave
/ young man who had raised the company
and led it forth, to meet his early death

Of that name, her soul within her fame

memory Of him to whom she had plight

righteous cause in the promise and
strength of his Astounding youth, was the
least that she could do; anything less
would be proclamation, from which her
soul recoiled.
With mutfied beat, to the solemn Dead
March, shoulder to shoulder and step to
step, the veterans, carrying in their midst
their torn and bullet-riddled flag, tramp
ed down the wide street. They were
comparatively young men, their Shout

yet whitened, their ranks were not yet

Rupture or Hernia is a prott u sion of
any of the abdominal contents through
any opening, natural or accidental, in
any part of the abdominal wall. The
most common form of rupture occurs In
the Inguinal canal in the groin, which
with it's two openings or rings, is the
weakest spot In the entire human anato-
nv. Rupture sometimes becomes strap
gulated by the bowel being caught and
compressed In the muscular tissues of
the wall through which the opening has
been made, ana the blood circulation be-
ing cut off, life is jeopardized. No per-
son afflicted with Rupture is safe frem

go for years, but the chances are this {
sooner or later they will be caught, and
when it is least expected, for it ia liable
to occur at any time, and even when the

those familiar with the subject of anat-
omy and rational measures of cure. Pur-
ported cures and means of relief have
been announced with such persistent
claim, and their complete failure to
either relieve or cure has been so marked,
that some Of those now afflicted will not
believe or heed the fact that absolute
cure has been discovered. Some un-
scrupulous and incompetent persons en-
gagged In certain lines of practice have
taken advantage of the credulity of the
sff1icted and imposed upon them. Some
manufacturers of trusses and doctors
who devote special attention to these
diseases may be honest in their intention,
but the results are just as disastrou. to
the unfortunate on whom they practice
as IL their motive were otherwise-theiI
methods being complete failures.

still and desrer one yet than all other"
All along the line OF march to the monu-
ment were crowds and crowds of people
standing mstelY or in wagon s, there was
no cheering, only revetential silence,
for this was a funeral march and not q
iubilate. Victory had come at last, but
it had been dearly bought, with the price
OF the outpouring of precious blood.
There were too many gray haired fathers
and mothers, too many sisters and sweet
hearts in that crowd for mirth; and eyes
were wet with tears.
Suddenly, In the midst of the muffisd
feet, there wheeled into line caparisoned
| as for war, horse quivering In every
/ nerve, his head erect, his eyes afame,
! his nostrils dilated, as IL he scented the
battle from afar; the noble war horse
who had borne his brave young master
to the front and to the death,-stepping
proudly as il on accustomed ground.
His rider held herself with queenly I'M
consciousness, as If she so thoroughly be-
longed to him that she and his mission
were as one. Queenly In her stature and
in her carriage, the thick braids of her
Titan hair showing below her military
cap, her superb figure encased in q habit
of military blue, with gilt buttons; or
her left breast cluster of forget. me-
nots; white skin gauntlets on her hand
cheeks that matched her hair In color,
md eyes that looked out as il searching
,fter the 'Invisible.''
"Capt Boyle's horse!" thrilled from
man to man, like an electric current.
Slowly and in perfect time the noble
animal bore her up the line, reversed anC
down on the other side to the monument
where she lifted her eyes as if they had
found the ''Invisible" and ssluted.
] The effect was electrical. Every sol
der in that line knew that her salute wa
given as q personal honor to himself i
memory of Capt Boyle and the cause 70
which he died, and at eignsl from tn
