 The position and contention of the democrats in the senate is simply this, in regard to the Panama aHatr; That the president of the United States has no right to make war upon 2 foreign power. that being solely within the province of congress: and that the president of the United States cannot refuse to execute law duly enacted by congress and -ap- proved by the president. This is the whole matter in nutshell. If, after a full and impartial investigation, the democrats find that this administra- ton did have guilty foreknowledge of the secession of Panama, and did assist her and have hindered a friend Iy power from compelling the recalci- trant state to come back into. the Co lombian union, thus performing an act of war, the democrats may vote to reject the treaty and demand that the president execute the law now on the statutes to build the Nicaragua canal. They are, not against the ca nal, and all the howlings of the repub- lican majority cannot make them oc- cupy any such attitude.

BURIED BEAUTY IN PARIS.
Magniacent stonework in the Foun- aafious of the Louvre, in
 the Old City.

It has been known for some time that the roadway in front of the cathedral of Notre Dame, in Paris, is much highe,. that 1t originally was, and that the view Of the entrance suffers in consequence. The architectural expert of fhe Louvre museum, M. Redon, has discovered that the Louvre is also buried beneath the ground to 9 far greater depth than the original plans warranted. writes Paris correspondent Of the LonGan Telegraph. M. Redon concludes from his first tnves- tigations that, as planned at first, the Louvre was to have bsen enconlpassed by naoat, the excavation of which was prevented by the houses that surrounded it at the time Afterward. when the houses were got rid of, the idea of the moat was forgotten, and the land rose naturally to it's present height hiding over 24Is feet of the building. The com mittee for the preservation of old Paris intends, under M Redon's supervisoin, to clear away the tarth and disclose the magnificent stoneHork of which the base is constructed.

Speaking of the row now going Q

Speaking of the row now going on in Outing says: Seoul, the capital Of Chosen. is built amidst network of hills eighteen miles from the sea. It is an ancient walled city. fortified in the strongest way by smells that would drive any but an Asiatic army forthwith into the ocean. It is poor in appearance, but rich in fleas. Oh autumn nights tigers frequently con- test the right of way with bela ted pc destrians. and this is the chief reason why one has the entire street to one self in moonlight stroll after eight o'clock. Meta phorically. one can scarcely see the town for the bald, bulbous and bulIet-headed Buddhist priests who fatten on the superstition of the populace, and lead licentious lives in the adjacent monasteries Barring an occasional court function, marked hy street processions, Seoul is triumphantly devoid of sights inter esting to traveller. The streets Jack entirely those picturesque character istics of a Chinese or Japanese thor oughfare, and vista across the Ko- rean bousetops is one of appalling monotony. One seeks in vain for at tractive souvenirs. In the small shops of Seoul, Japanese beer, match es, cigarettes and cheap crockery form the chief stock in trade. while long-stemmed Korean pipes and met al-banded Korean knives are offered in the more pretentious shops. Here, likewise, can be had the really unique Korean fans, made of silk or paper, finished in oil and covered with curi- ous native designs. These fans are dipped in water before they are used, and tue little breeze produced by them is astonishingly cool. The wall sur

SCHOOL DAY MEMORIES.
Boys Are More Apt to Forget Punish. ments in Later Life Than
 Girls Are.

Speaking of the difference between boys and girls in the schoolroom," said ateacher in the New Orleans Times-Dem- ocrat, it is very interesting when you come to mark it well, for 1t is 8 differences which runs the course of life with them. Considering the immediate effects of the teachers efforts should say that we are, as a rule, better pleased with the work of the girls. But If we come to the after life of the pupil we would naturally turn to the boy. He may nave been bad fel- low in school. He may have given us a whole lot of trouble, and maybe we had to use the rod on him now and then.
 But mark the difference: No mat ter what our experiences may have been with the boy, no matter how often or how severely we chastised him, in his maturer years he always has warm place in his heart for his old school teacher. He remembers the pIeasanter side Of his school life, and the calmer aud sweater relation ship of pupil and teaeh- er How is it with the girl? Well, it is just the other way, and about as far the other way as you can go. If she has ever had any sort of trouble with her teacher, that is the particular thing she remembers. She remembers the ugly, disagreeahle things of her school days, and if she is particularly mean, she will meyer cease to hate her perceptor.
 Now, why is this? Candidly, cannot tell you. unless you are generous enough to accept theory which has occurred to me while nusing over the rather inter esting fact. l think the explanation Is probably 10 be found in the difference between the spheres ill which they move. Wor%anss s life is cast along narrow lines. Her sphere is not as broad as man $. Naturally, she lives more in the past Mans life broadens when he leaves the Sschoolroom. Other things crowd in upon him. There are other more pressing worries than the recollection of the rod with which he was punished at school, or the partiality for some other fellow, or any Of $le other things that yexed the child soul for the while. So in turn ing back to bis school days he remem- bers only those things which are pleas ant and which add somewhat of poetry to the duller lines of maturity
 You will understand, of course, that exception must be made to the rule. I have been speaking of types. There are good girls and bad girls, just as there are good boys and bad boys, but what have said may be looked upon as the average of my own experience in the schoolroonn, so I give you the conclusion for what it is worth '
