Friday, August 23rd.?Passed through the straits between Corsica and the Cardegenia Islands at 12 o'clock, with Stromboli in plain view. At 2 o'clock passed through the Strait de Masinia between Italy and Sicily, the straits being beautifully lighted. Satuiday, August M.?Just another day on the deep blue sea, with nothing else to see and nothing to do but sleep, which I did. Sunday, August 25.?Just a good, friendly day, with early morning service, then breakfast and rest and sleep. Saw an occasional boat in the waters west of Jaffa. We i?ssed Crete about sunset, too far away to see much. We have iraveled about 1,350 miles on the Meditteranean between Alexandria, and you can't tell it from the Atlantic except by the color of the water. - Alexandria, Egypt., August 2b. Reached this port at 6 a. m. August 26th. It is a bix city with a multitude of mixed peoples, brown, white to half red, yellow and some all black. It will take all of today and part of tomorrow to unload ship. \ The wharf is lined with every kind of poverty. The people seem to be like a pack of stray mules, but willing to work. The decks ate lined with swindlers exchanging money, giving Egyptian piasters and francs for American currency or checks, and charging a bift exchange rate, that depending entirely on the knowl edge of the traveler. Many are trying to take out parties on sight seeing trips in horse-drawn carriages, but we are advised not to go, as it is hazardous, and we are told that we may never return if we go out with some of these fellows. Of alT the"race* of man Chive met so far, the Egyp tions seem to be the most unreliable, judgment fixed on short acquaintance, however. The city contains three-fourths of a million people, some of a high type. It was once the home of the world's largest library, but that day as now passed. The general run of people are more easily understood than the average Krench man. Alexandria is a great commercial center and is the port of *11 northern Africa. It has fine docks lined Cth great ships front almost all parts of the world, y passport does not permit me to land, but 1 have a special one-day permit and am going ashore in the afternoon and see some of the most altractvie places and perhaps 1 will then think mote of the Egyptians. W. C. Manning.. Alexandria, Egypt, August 26. Have jpst returned from a tour of the city. The streets arg lined with ragged children, poor lame horses overloaded; men.pulling carts loaded with fruits, veg etables, watermelons and the like. Men, women and children line the sidewalks and fill the streets. Here 1 have discovered the saddest scenes since crossing th Atlantic, and I am convincd that Egypt needs to leave off 100 of its old habits and gather to a thous and new thoughts. The Egyptian men wear a red cap with a fez, no shade to protect their faces and necks from the scorch ing sun. The Mohammendan young women all wear black gowns and have a black veil reaching up over their noses to just below their eyes?a garb that ap pears very uncomfortable. It would seem to be al most smothering them. 1 saw a Mohammedan funeral procession, with a bugle and several brass horns leading about 200 men, women, and children marching, and perhaps 60 young women in black gowns in the rear, apparently the principal mourners. They were marching to some sad dirge, and all were slapping their hands in uni son except one young girl, who was slapping her face instead. Our guide told us he thought it was the fu neral of a young man. ? We went to a cemetery, surrounded by a very high wall, and from there we could" see the Sphinx. We went down into the catacombs, built by the Romans in the thirteenth century B. C., and discovered by German scientists only a few years ago. Many of the streets of the city are lined with date palms about .50 feet high, as straight as an arrow, with not a limb not a leaf ekcept within a few feet of the tpp. Just where the bottom leaves break out there are a number of clusters of dates hang, perhaps as large as a half bushel measure. The natives usually climb the trees for the fruit. If not gathered they fall to the ground. The city parks and vacant lots are covered with these tiees, and they seem to sup ply. much food for the poor people. If an American undertakes to buy anything, he is generally "stuck." I paid 20 cents for the pencil with which 1 am writing-an ordinary yellow pencil, with no rublier eraser. A tablet, about the size of a 5-cent tablet in North Carolina but of better quality, cost 8 piasters. Each piaster is equal to our nickel in value, making the tablet cost 40" cents. I [>aid the merchant 15 piasters for the tablet and pencil, expect ing back 3 piasters, but he gave me,' from his own choosing, three picture post cards, claiming he had no change. Now, this was in what was claimed to be a first-class stationery house, with some half dozen your trading. W. C. Manning. Aboard Ship, Tuesday, Aug. 27. Spent a quiet day aboard the boat at the wharf, except for the wharf songs antj clatter of trucks and ? drays on the pavement. About 12 o'clock we pulled in the gangplank, cast off and steamed for Jaffa. There were 12 big ocean-going steamers at port when we left and a big fleet of white-winged sailboats on the waters, many of them fully rigged?a beautiful sight. We passed a large number of fishing boats off Port mud, Expect to land aTJaffa at 8 tomorrow. ?? _r. W. C. Manning..
