Timbuktu Real City
Contrary To Belief
Of General Public
Timbuktu, long a synonym for
remoteness and Inaccessibility, 1.
no longer either far away or dif
ficult to reach. Thought by many
to be a fabled spot like E3 Dor
ado. Timbuktu, says The Associ
ated Press, Is a famous ami Im
portant old city of French West
Africa, and the National Geogra
phic Society says that good roads
and railways put down by French
engineer* soon will mako a jaunt
there Uttle more than a .trip to the
Pyramids or to the heart of Mo
rocco.
The city lies at the southern
edge of the Sahara Desert and
about 900 miles inland from tho.
Atlanta. It 1* just, off the Niger
Rlrer, nine miles to tho north. A
small canal makes the town ac
cessible from the river during tho
rainy aeaaon, but at other times
travelere from the couth enter
by pony-back from the river port
of Kodyiamo.
Timbuktu Is a naturae trade ceu-
terTor a vast area. It has been
described na "the meeting place of
the camel and the canoe.” When
the Spanish were colonizing the
New World, the-city was a splen.
did and prosperous place, number
ing Its inhabitants by, the score*
of thousands. War among the
various 'trlbea,of,tlie region later
brought desolation, and when the
arrival'of tho” annual salt «
van from the heart of the as* 1
A rousing welcome Is exteniS' 1 -
tho arrviing horde. ““•• ■
There are 82,000 more
■In tbo British Isles than iw
were two years ago
French took over the town In 1894
It had a population of only a few
thousand. Under French control ’
prosperity has returned and the
place is, as of old, a great trading
center. Some 8,000 people dwel.
there permanently and there is a
large floating population of cara
van traders.
Timbuktu Is a city of mud and
stucco houses like African cities
farther north. The "streets" are
merely passages in the sand bo.
tween the buildings. But over this
carpet of sand there seethes a
busy Ufa: Arabs, Moors and
Taurcgs afoot; laden camclq, cam
els with riders; donkeys with
packs. In tho market place la
even a greater buzz of activity.
Tho old strictness of Mohamme
danism haa not relaxed In Tim
buktu as it has in, Turkey. The
only women aeen on its streets
are feminine servant*. The better
class women remain In their
homes most of the time. It they
fare forth they go only with their
men and then heavily veiled.
The new flourishes beside the
old In Timbuktu. Tho market
place includes not pnly the mat-
shaped little booths of tho na.
bat several European com
mercial houses. The telegraph
reaches to tho outside world an*
telephones are used locally.
There are only , about a score
of Europeans In Timbuktu, most,
ly French officials and their fam
ilies.
