WALLED SEOUL.
4Ae Ancient Capital OF Korea ana I
~ Some OF It's Peculiarities.

4Ae Ancient Capital OF Korea ana
Some Of It's Peculiarities.
Seoul, the capital Of Chosen, is built
amid a network Of hills eighteen miles
from the sea. 1t Is an ancient walled
city, fortified in the strongest way by
smells that would drive any but an
Asiatic army forthwith into the ocean.
1t is poor in appearance, but rich in
deas. On autumn nights tigers fire.
Quently contest the right of way with
belated pedestrians, and this is the
chief reason why one has the entire
street to oneself in a moonlight stroll
after o'clock. Metaphorically, one
can scarcely see the town for the bald,
Dubious and bullet headed Buddhist
priests who fatten on the superstition
Of the populace. w.. l",-,...r T. 20,
Barring an occasional court function,
marked by street professions, Seoul is
triumphantly devoid Of sights interest
ing to traveller. The streets lack en-
tirely those picturesque characteristics
Of Chinese or Japanese thoroughfare,
and a vista across the Korean house
tops is one of appalling monotony. One
seeks in vain for attractive souvenirs.
In the small shops of Seoul Japanese
beer, matches, cigarettes and cheap
crockery form the chief stock in trade,
while long stemmed Korean pipes and
metal banded Korean knives are Of
fered in the most pretentious shops.
Here, likewise, can be had the really
ne Gil
paper, finished in oil and covered with
curious native designs. These fans
are dipped in water before they are
used, and the little breeze produced by
them is astonishingly cool. -.
The wall surrounding Seoul, from
which kites are ever flying, is but a
pocket edition Of the great Chinese wall
that leads down to the sea at Shanhai-
kwan. Piercing this Korean copy are
the city gates picturesque passage
ways-which are promptly and irrevo--
cably closed with the setting Of the
sun. The west gate will be entered by
the tourist on reaching the capital from
Chemulpo, and should he come to the
outside of this but minute after the
sun has disappeared behind the horizon
and the ''big belr' has doomed its
mournful warning note he Is elected to
camp in the open until Phoebus has cy-
cled the world on the equatorial path.
If he reaches the gate five minutes be-
fore it closes on its grooming hinges he
will witness sight that will almost
repay him for the toilsome trip up from
the coast.-Outing.

 hour last night the players had not received one cent of their August sal aries from Mir. Ragland.

One rumor was that the Southern League. having taken charge of base | ball in Montgomery. the local franchise | would revert to the league which could
 do anything 1t wanted to with 1t. Yesterday morning three prominent
 business men of Montgomery offered

NEWS OF PENSACOLA
RAILROAD FRANCHISE ORDINANCE
 BEFORE THE COUNCIL.
Now Believed When 1t is Put Upon it's
 Passage 1t Will Meet With Little Opposition.

Pensacola. Fla. Sept. 2.-(Special)- The City Council held a short meeting last night. the session lasting but eight minutes. In that time, however, the ordinance granting rights to a com pany formed by local capitalists to ouild a railroad into Pensacola was read second time. an amendment of- fered and the paper which means so much to this city was referred to the ordinance and expressing committee for final action. The ordinance will be reported to the Council early next week, and, from indications, there will be no opposition to its passage.
 The ordinance is practically the same as given the Memphis and Gulf pro- iectors last year. That project was not pushed through to a successful conclu- sion and the local men, seeing a chance to make some money for themselves in the construction of the railway, decid- ed to finance the line on their own re- sponsibility. They did so, and peti- ton, which is now before the Council for uses of certain water front prop erty Is signed by the most prominent men of the city. Each of them has the interests of the city at heart and will work for a successful culminatlon of the scheme.
 At the meeting last night an import ant amendment to the ordinance was offered by Alderman McHugh and ac- cepted by the Council. This prohib- tied the transfer of the franchise to any railroad which now has tracks in this city or which has lines entering the city. This was introduced after the ordinance had been read the sec- ond time. but the value of such an amendment was seen at once. and was promptly accepted. Alderman Hays had a word of explanation to make. and from the stand he took an i'm portant matter was referred to the City Attorney for opinion. Alderman Hays, with two other of the Councilmen, had subscribed for shares to the railroad and he wanted to know If there was anything improper in a Councilman putting his name down for shares when the charter stated that no Alderman or officers connected with the city gov- ernment should be a partner to any firm receiving benefits in the shape of franchises from the city. MT. Hays argued that there was nothing at all improper in his subscribing to the rail road stock. for if anything 1t tended to the advancement of the city.
