BUSsoRAH A FILTHY TOWN.
A Visit to the ApocryphaI Home Of
Sindbad the Sailor.


Sindbad the Sailor.
We were on our way to Bussorah,
famous as the apocryphal home of
Sindbad the Sailor. Buss0rah is the
seaport OF Bagdad, from which 1t Is
distant about 500 miles by river.
Bussorah in the summer is nothing
less than fiery furnace, for the Their
mometer registers more than 100 de-
Erees F. in the shade during 100 con-
secutive days. and the mean tempera-
ture. night and day, for upwards Of
four months, is about 50 degrees.
Malarial fevers. dysentery and ague
are prevalent. and the town is fire.
Quently visited by plague and cholera,
and yet. thanks to the cool winter and
prevailing north winds, the place is
not essentially unhealthy for those
who are acclimatized.
The habits and wants of the popu-.
lation are simple and are likely to re-
main so for some time to come. but
the sanitary state of the town is de-
plorable. The creeks, which are tidal,
supply it with drinking water, but are
used unfortunately for all house
hold purposes, and the stencil arising
from them at low water is overpow-
ering.
The governor general Of the province
Of Bussorah had his private residence
in the upper story of a flimsy lath and
plaster edifice overlooking the main
road. The walls of his house could not
have been more than six inches thick,
and it was full Of windows. The
ground floor seemed to be stable and
was occupied by goats.
AS our carriage approached, churn-
ing up the mud which lay ankle deep
and humping over the hollows and OBJ
structions which had SO far escaped
the attention OF not too observant
municipality, we saw the governors
head appear at an upper window and
that of she goat at a lower one
simultaneously.
The governor. middle aged man of
dignified hearing. greeted US gravely
and kindly. From his conversation he
appeared to be somewhat of q pedant.
imbued with the chauvinistic tende--
cies of the young Turk. and a harden
ed bureaucrat
His excellency's salutations las he
babe us farewell were expressed with
becoming gravity: 1--WE trust that God
may be pleased to preserve your ex-
cellency's health. Our town is yours,
as well as our house. May we order
our soldiers to accompany you on your
ride to Zobeir? Your person is more
precious to us than our eyes. and there
are evil men. enemies of our lord the
sultan, abroad in the desert" Cham
