PASSAGE OF HOLY
CARPET BREAKS
WAR MONOTONY
SUEZ, June 10-—The passage of the
"holy carpet" through Suez on Its way
from Cairo to Mecca wan one of the
few spectacular events to berak the
monotony of war time In Suez, a
considerable procession of Moham
medans accompanying it in Its pil
grimage to Mohammed’s tomb.
The procession in Suez started from
the freight station, where tho carpet
had previously arrived by special
train. The pilgrims, representing
various tribes and races, bore banners
and played discordant music upon
tomtoms.
ltehind the foot pilgrims came a
body of Egyptian cavalry with drawn
swords, mounted upon beautiful Arab
jinnies and followed by a mountain
battery of native artillery An Egyp
tian military band came next, making
a prodigious din, and after them
marched a splend'id body of Egyptian
infantry, their bayonets glistening in
the brilliant sunshine They were fol
lowed by a civilian band, making weird
noises in an effort to reproduce some
of the popular native ni's.
Then came the “holy carpet," car
ried in a richly embroidered canopy
borne on the back of a camel Two
more camels followed ,on one of which
rode a native pi'iest. Then came some
Knglish military mounted irolice,
bringing up the rear of the proces
sion
As the carpet, surrounded by a
guard of Kgyptian infan >>, passed,
uiense crowds of natives lining the
streets saluted while taeir women
folk, who were at the windows and
on the roofs of the house, made a
curious wailing After tlio caipet had
finished its tour of the town it was
taken back to the ralhvaj station and
conveyed by special train to th-> docks,
where it was reverently loaded on a
British ship en route to Jeddah,
when.e it was conveed to Mecca by
camel.
