Homer Croy enters a typical East Indian vehicle and is wheeled up a street of Bombay. The next scene is a candy shop, which is really a candy stand, as it is outside a store and consists of huge baskets filled with different kinds of sweets. Then is seen another mode of conveyance, consisting of carts drawn by oxen. Next is shown a scene in a public square, a Hindu Ferris wheel, a crude old-fashioned affair, probably a thousand years old, a merry-go-round and a street with hundreds of beggars asking alms. Two Hindoos, with their "cobars," do uncanny tricks to the tune of a weird song, played on a pipe-shaped instrument, after which there is shown a scene at the city well, where hundreds meet daily to wash their clothes, as well as their bodies. One mother is seen putting soap in her little son's eye to wash it.
