fow minutes and then move nearer, by few fest, to the precious supply
Now let the ricksha convey you to Wanchai, and at Queen's Road Enni, see how the fam lics get their supply. Follow the water car riers up over the hill leafing to Happy Valley, go with them along the patched and dusty road by the Race Course, and branch off in the direction of Tytam. Visit that rocky tle nook sheltered by trees beneath which a tiny stream is feebly trickling downto where a crowd of carriers. are clustered with their watering pots. Nglice how they suap off a few leaves from a shrub hard by and place them in the buckets to keep the water steady, and then return with them into the scorching sun; and observe how resignes they all appear in a situation which, to the Colanisers of this fair port must be unknown even undrained of
What does it all mean? Surely, that someone bas b'undered and that at length the time had come to impress the fact upon the miads of those responsible. Had the drought kept off a few years when the population of the Cuinny had become greater and spread along the higher levels, when Kowloon had extended far into the Hinterland then a water famine would indeed be keenly felt by every section of the community. But, to-day, it is very evident that the European community has not fully realised the extent to which the native community is at present suffering. To us the time and labour expended by then on fetching water, can scarcely be conceived From day break to sunset the wander along the hill paths peering imo nullahs and crevices until at length their search is regarded and a trickling stream provides sufficient water for a family. Many have to leave work and pay to join in the search, and not a few, wlione daily earnings are of the smallest, appear content to fill in bucket from the nearest stream, however contalpinated it may prove. Certainly, many wells are about to be respched, but in all probability, the authorities may reclose then after taking ou analysis of the contents. Chinese appear to lie most careful of what they drink and, as one of the members suggested at a recent meeting of the Sanitary Board, it would surely be suf ficient if notices were posted above the wells that have been reopened warning the people in case the water was polluted that it was unfit for poinble purposes. Then the native com- munity could use their own discretion and, in many instances, instead of trudging many weary
miles fur water to be utilised for washing purposes could go to these wells and get all that was needful,
The man who to-day toils with his pots and pans along the streets and the bypaibs of the upper levels in the hope that he will will find his load of water, has essayed a task which, under existing conditions is becoming even more hopeless and heart breaking as the days pass. That we have such asupply hard by must be looked upon as providential; for had we been entirely isolated from water on the mainland Hongkong would undoubted- ly have been stranded on the verge of calamby instead of being fairly safe for some time to come if the water is brought across, '
It is to be hoped that history will not repeat itseif, nor the Government fall back into that apathy which has been emphasised to such an extent by the incidents of the present drought. It may be a blessing in disguise, and through everyone could have done without it, behoves these in autinrity to strive to improve matters and guard against a second visitation with its accompanying loss of health and 'wealth.

If, too, the torpedo boats which are swinging listlessly at the buoys of Wanchai were put into service to tow water-boats they wonid sender good service to His Majesty's subjects by accelerating the service..
At lease three times the number of water- boats, junks &c, and tugs are needed, to improve matters, and the service should be extended along the water front of the whole city of Victoria
It may seem very dreadful to officers of H. M. Navy that a land-lubber" should suggest that Cast and furious torpedo bonis and “des- treyers" should be requisitioned for towing purposes, but circumstances alter cases and the present situation is quite unparalled in the annals of Hongkong. True, we had a water nine a few years ago, but it was not nearly so serious as the pretent drought; moreover, the authorities would appear to have learnt nothing from experiente on the last occasion when the, water was fetching 10 and 15 cents per bucket.
In addition to using destroyers, I would sug- gest that some of the little gunboats might be used for towing water-boats of various kinds to and from various points on the mainland, even as far as Mrs Day, if need be.
Is it right that the people should have to supply themselves with "free water at the rate of 10 to 20 and 35 cents per fucket? Would it not be better for Government to engaged several hundred coolies and pay them to deliver the water? In any case is it fair that the population of this city should be made in pay water rates when for weeks past the supply. has been almost entirely cut off from tens of husands?im
think you will concur with me, Sir, in the opinion that if His Excellency, the Acting Governor would seek information from other than official creatures who are bubbling aver with statistics and pleasing platitudes that lie would get useful knowledge and would speedily see to it that whatever improvement in the supply is possible shall be made without delay. And he would, too, no doubt be able to make to the limperial authorities practical suggestions for the permanent improvement of our water supply.
In conclusion, permit me to suggest that were you to gather together and publish facts relative to the present state of affairs in Lintin, Tipo and other parts of the New Territory it could prove very interesting and serve, pro- bably, a very useful purpose.
Yours faithfully,
