SPRINKLING SINGAPORE.
The Solemn Procession That Accom-
pnnics the Watering Cart.

Poultney Bigelow In his description
of the marvellous progress made by the
city OF Singapore under English rule
gave quaint picture Of the manner In
which the streets are watered
The watering cart was drawn by lit
tie white bullocks and driven by Ma
lays with turbans. 1t seemed to take
five Malays to do this driving. One
roasted nloft on top of the barrel for
the purpose of controlling the outgo of
water He seemed very proud OF his
appointment Another native in big
turban roasted on the pole and con-
trolled the little cattle.
Then there was man in thin brown
legs and much turban who walked sol
EMMY behind enjoying footbath. He
was obviously government function
ary. although his exact sphere of use
fulness | could not discover. He ap-
peared to be something In the nature
of rear guard.
Then there was n "foreloper," or nd
vance guard for the purpose of clear
ing the way. There appeared to be M
idea that the little bullocks might sud
denly go mad and rush ahead At any
rate, II gave congenal employment to
one more native, and that was some
thing.
There was yet another, who bent
down now and then to pick up a piece
of stone or brush away some irregular
ity unseen by ordinary eyes.
This outfit was treat to me. 1t was
solemn; 1t was full of self conscious
ness; 1t was magnlicently oriental.
