POST OFFICE AT SINGAPORE.
Troubles the Carriers Have In Making
 Their Deliveries.

The post office at Singapore must ba a Tower of Babel.
 There are letters for delivery to Europeans, Eurasians. Malays, Tam. ills, Bengalis. Parasees, Arabs, Arme. nians, Sinhalese and others, says the St. Martin s-le-Grand. The postmen have their work cut out, and when there comes Tamil letter they often have to beat up the countryside for the man with no fixed abode, and they often have to read out the addresses and origin of all their letters at each house they visit.
 There are other obstacles in the way of the speedy delivery of letters. Dogs, for example. The Malay post man is Mohammedan. and when the friendly dog accosts him tdogs always accost postmen) the touch is defiie- ment. The postman must bathe. And the bath must be taken before the next hour of prayer. Prayers are of. fered five times a day.
 Either the postmaster of Singaporei has no nerves or he doesn't open hlN explosive correspondence.
