|BANQUETS AND DINNERS.

"A Great Deal Of Money Spent in New
= York for These Affairs.
No statistician has ever turned his
attention to making record of the
vast number Of banquets and dinners
he Id in New York during a period of
twelve months, remarks the Advertiser
Of that city. The amount of money ex-
pended on such affairs in Gotham would
astonish even the man Of figures. The
conclusion has been reached that New
York is rapidly getting to be a COM
mpnity of epicures. Paris is celebrated
the world over as city whose people
know better than any others how to
LIVE, but New York, is making such
rapid strides in this direction that the
gay French capital will have to look to
its laurels.
\ The figures as to the cost of public
banquets given at the big uptown hos
digious. No one who has not exam
ined into the subject would imagine
that tn ~ aggregate the vast sums they
do. How many people know what one
million dollars really is, and how many
things can be accomplished with such
sum? This amount is expended every
year in providing the viands and wines
and entertainments for those who like
to dine well together at public ban
quets. These figures do not include
the vast number of private dinners
given by the rich and exclusive people
who find it more convenient to dine
their friends at hotels than in their
own houses.

The Chickamnuga park lies eight
miles southeast of Chattanooga, and oc-
cupies oil of the principal fighting
ground of that great battle. 1t is easily
reached by railroad and by private con.
veyance from the city. 1t has been the
plan and effort Of the commission to Re-
store it to it's natural condition at the
time of the battle. TO this end old
roadways have been opened and new
ones closed. Magnificent boulevards
have been constructed throughout the
park and run to all important points.
The main thorcughfare is twenty miles;
in length. beginning at the northern
extremity of Missionary Ridge and runs
ming fourteen miles along its cresa ;.ea
thence through the entire length OF the
park. More than fifty miles of these
magnificent macadaln roads have been
built, and their equal is not to be found
OIL the continent. %s
Five steel observation towers have
been constructed. Two Of these are on
the ridge, one nccr S.!clInan's position
at the northern extremity and ono at
Bragg's headquarters. Three ere in
the Chickamauga park. These towers
are seventy feet high and the observa--
ton platforms at the top are reached ny
easy flights of steps. From them birds

In the park, besides the observation
towers and boulevards, the government
has placed magnificent monuments to
her regular troops engaged in battles
and has erected pyramidal monuments,
ten feet high, of eight-inch shells, where
brigade commanders on each side were
killed or mortally wounded. There are

BURIED IN JEWELS.

The Magnificent Ornaments of Some On
earthcd MummIes.
The following most curious account
of remarkable discovery appears in
the Academy, which says: II. Villiers
Stuart writes to the secretary of the
Egyptian exploration fund from Cairo,
under date March 4, as follows: "A few
days ago there were discovered at
Dashour the graves of two princesses
of the twelfth dynasty intact. The
collins had moldered away, and the
mummies lay each with a coronet on her
head, and wearing other jewelry. When
an attempt to move the mummies was
made they fell to fragments. The jewel
ry is very beautiful. One of the coro-
nets was, in fact, a wreath of forget
me-nots, and of pre- cious stones,
mounted in gold stems. At in
tervals occurred Maltese crosses and
precious stones set in gold. This love-
ly wreath was as perfect and looked
as fresh as on the day it was made-a
couple Of centuries before the time Of
Abraham-more than four thousand
years ago.. It illustrates a passage in
the poetic epitaph on the funeral pail
Of Queen Is-em-Kheb: 'She is armed
with flowers every day." I. visited
Dashour and saw, in stu, the sarcopha.
gus in which these treasures were
found, as also that of the other prin-
cess. She also had lovely coronet,
fitted with socket in which was in
serted spray of various flowers made
in Jewels, with gold stems and gold
foliage. Besides these, there are neck
lates, bracelets, armlets, anklets, dag
gers, charms, etc. These most interest,"
imp discoveries are due to the energy
and sagacity of M. de Morgan, director
general of the Egyptian antiquities,
ably seconded by Nine. de Morgan, his
gifted wife,"

Chickamauga-tne bloodiest battlefield
in Americas history. The national
government, recognizing this fact, de-
termined to purchase and preserve it
as monument to the bravery of her
sons. With this end in view the Chick
amauga and Chattanooga National
Military park was established by an
act of congress passed August 10, 1890,
authorizing the purchase of 5000 acres
of land on that part of the battlefield
of Chickamauga where the heaviest
fighting was done. In addition to this
the government has purchased Orchard
Knob (the headquarters of Gems. Grant
and Thomas during the battle of Mis-
sionary Ridge, Bragg's headquarters
on the ridge and that part of the ridge
crest where Sherman made his famous
attack on Bragg's right. The commits
sion has also acquired the right of way
along the crest of Missionary ridge for
distance of ten miles and has con-
structed magnificent boulevard fifty
feet wide along it's entire length.
Nothing like the Chiclzamauga and
Chattanooga National Military park
has ever before been attempted by any
government. Portions of battlefelds
have been preserved, as at Gettysburg
and Waterloo, but nothing on so man.
moth scale as this park in and about
Chattanooga. Congress appropriated
half million dollars to commence the
work and appointed commission con-
sisting of Gen. J. S. Fullerton, Gen. A.
P. Stewart and Maj. F. G. Smith, with
Gen. H.V. Boynton as historical assist
ant, to have entire charge of it, Gen.
Stewart to represent the confederate
soldiers.
In addition to the national appropri-
alton twenty-four states have already
taken action toward marking the posi-
tons held by their troops in these bat
ties. During the last year the commits
sions appointed by these states have
visited the battlefelds about Chatta-
nooga and assisted the national CON-
mission in locating positions and clear
ing up confused and disputed points of
history. The state of Ohio has had a
commission of eight, composed of old
soldiers who participated in these bat
ties, at work two years for determining
the positions held by her troops. This
state has appropriated 100000 for the
purpose of erecting monuments on
these locations, and as result ffty-fve

guns are now being placed in position
and present a most warlike appear
ance.
The national commission is preparing
historical tablets to set forth the de-
tails of movements, and indicate the po-
sitions of all organizations, both of the
union and confederate armies, which
were upon the ground, so that every
visitor can follow the battle and trace
the fort taken or position lost by each
command, great or small. These tab
lets will be of bronze, three by four
feet in size, and are to contain from
two hundred to four hundred words of
historical text.
In addition to these tablets others
will be placed about Chattanooga to
set forth the details of the other bat
ties which were fought on this historic
ground, viz: Wauhatchie, Browns
Ferry and Lookout Mountain.
The Chickamauga and Chattanooga
National Military park will be the
greatest military object lesson to be
found in the world. Here not one posi-
ton OF one corps is marked, but the
entire movements are shown of two
great armies opposing each other on
the. bloodiest and most stubbornly-
fought battlefield in the worlds history.
Here pyramid of cannon balls marks
the place where general who wore
the blue fell; there a similar pile points
the spot where a gallant commander
who wore the gray sank before the
fearful fire of the enemy. Here mon
ument of bronze indicates the point
where a line of blue-clad boys with
stood the terrific charge of the "John.

imposing pile of granite records the
valor of the boys in gray as they swept,

umns. The woods bristle with cannon;
old earthworks are thrown up, and the
trees on every side bear the marks of
the fearful scenes of carnage and death.

Frances H., once king of Naples,
passed away up in the Austrian Tyrol
recently, says the Buffalo Courier. It
is striking commentary on the march
Of events that few people of this gen
Grafton remember anything about him.
For thirty years he has had no more to
do with shaping the course of Naples
than had citizen of the United States;
for he belonged to the old order which
passed away when Garibaldi fought and
Cavour planned. After his overthrow in
1861 he attempted to organize re-
volts against the new Italy, but success
did not attend him. He became forth
with an ana chronism in Italian history.
Francis was born in 1886 and sue
ceeded his father, Ferdinand H., as
king of Naples in 1858. Like the young
car, he began his reign by liberating
prisoners, but hopes that he would re-
move the abuses of his fathers reign
were soon disappointed. Then came
the onset of Garibaldi. The king fed
before the attack Of the republican,
soldier, and, with his queen and fam
ity, took refuge in the fortress Of Ga
eta, which fell after q siege, during
which the queen, a Bavarian princess,
displayed notable courage. Francis
reign was short and tumultuous and its
sudden termination was deep disap-
pointment to an ambitious man.
The misfortune of this king was that
he appeared on the scene at the time
when the Italian national spirit was
ready to express itself in action, under
the lead of Sardinia. Particularism
had had long day in Italy. The
little states were extremely jealous of
one another, and up to this time no CO.
hesive force had been found. That the
states of the peninsula did we'll in
drawing together into a more powerful
kingdom there can be no question.
Italy is still in bad way in many re-
spects, but she is far better off than
she would have been had she continued
to divide her strength by upholding
group of small states like Naples.
