such desire, positively would not be a cam

CATACoMBS UNDER THE CITY OF PA

From Gaiignani's new Guide to the city of Pa
ris we gather the following facts. Immense
quantities Of building stone have been for many
Years excavated underneath the foundations OF
the city. This process is still going on. produ-
cling annual materials worth nine millions OF
frances, and employing four thousand Wo:kmen.
The excavations at the present time occupy one
sixth Of the sub-surface of the capital. The GAL
Ieries which have been traced under the public
ways are III length upwards of twenty-five thou
sand metres. Catacombs originated with Mr.. Le-
noir, lieutenant general of the police. A decree
for this purpose W as issued IN 1884. The cere-
mony of consecrating the catacombs was perEor-
med with great solemnity on the 18th of April,
1886. Many cemeteries in various parts ofthe
city were now cleared, and their bones removed
to the c~atacombs. AT first fhey were heaped up
without any kind OF order; but in 1910 a regu-
lar system Of piling up the bones was commen-
ced. Openings, were made to obtain air, chan
nels were formed 10 carry off the WATER steps
were constructed from the lower to the upper
excavations, pillars were erected to support the
dangerous parts of the roof, and the skulls and
bones built up along the walls. The staircase
leading down to the catacombs consists of nine
|ty steps.-
About two hundred yards f.om the bottom OF
this flight IS the vestibule of octagonal from, with
stone pillars, and latin inscription. On entering
the door there stretches before the spectator a
long gallery, lined with bones from the floor to
the roof. The arm, leg and thigh bones are in
front, closely and regularly piled together and
and their uniformity is relieved by three rows
OF skulls-one at the bottom, one in the middle
aud one at the top, in three continuous lines.
Behind these are thrown The smaller bones. This
gallery conducts to several rooms, resembling
%ehapels, lined with bones variousIy arranged.
THESE chapels contain numerous Inscriptions;
one is called the Tombeau dc la Revolution an
other the Tombeau des Victimes, and they con-
tain the bodies OF those who persisted either in
