people, and of these less than 200. per-
haps, are Europeans. There are alto
gether about half dozen different settle

Of Asiatics or Africans. There is an
Asiatic mercantile quarter. residence

business street. which is almost European
in character. There are two hotels which

the Bank of British India and quite a
number Of respectable stores. The native
people Of the city are of all shades of
yellow. black and brown, and they come
from every part of the African coast.
Some Queer Asiatics.
But first let me give you some idea of
the Asiatics who have come here from
Arabia and East India. The Arabs wear
turbans and gowns and constitute an i'm
portant element of the community. They
were formerly slave traders. and until
the British took hold and built the
Uganda railway they did a big business
in toting ivory down from Lake Victoria
and other parts Of central Africa on the
heads of slaves. selling both slaves and
ivory here at Mombasa. This business
has all been done away with. and the
ivory now comes in on the railway.
AS to the East Indians they are mostly
retail merchants and traders. There are
Parsees. with tall hats. Hindus In white
sheets. and other East Indians who wear
little round gold caps, gay vests and cal
leo trousers. Indian women are to be
seen everywhere, and some of them, the
wives of Mohammedans, go about clad in
yellow from head to foot. saw two
women on my way across the island who

A Human Trolley.
The word cars savors OF electricity or
steam. The cars took were run by men.
Here In East Africa human muscle forms
the cheapest power. The wages OF the
natives run from 5 cents day upward.
and In the interior there are many who
win work all day for cents. The result
is that the trolley cars are pulled by
men. Each consists Of a platform about

such car tracks all over the island. with
