TSINANFU
Railway established a bi-weekly train service between Tsinan and Tientsin on the 2nd Nov., 1910, trains leaving each place on Sunday and Wednesday mornings completing the journey-a distance of 208 miles-in one day. It is expected that the line from Tsinan to Taian will be in working order by the Spring of 1911 and the whole line from Tientsin to Pukow, opposite Nanking, completed early in 1912, when there is every prospect of Tsinan becoming a rather important centre commercially and politically.
Tsinan is the head-quarters of the fifth division of the Chinese army, whose camp is a few miles south west of the town. There has been an arsenal since 1874, north of the town, near Lok'ou on the Yellow River. There is also a military college. Since January, 1906, the main street of the city, the Governor's yamen, and some other public buildings have been lighted by electricity. Great activity has recently been evinced in building colleges and schools and among the interesting institutions of the town the Museum established by the English Baptist Mission should not be overlooked. The sacred mountain of China, Tai Shan (5,100ft.) is distant some 35 miles (60 by road) to the south. Küfu, the birthplace and the tomb of Confucius, and the residence of the Confucian duke are about 100 miles away in the same direction. The control of the Settlement is vested in a Bureau whose members are appointed by the Governor of the province.
