ENGLISH PRIVATE PALACES.

Vast sums Expended ON Their Decora-
ton and Furnishing.
The recent sale of Battle Abbev for
f2OO,OOO-a figure at which the proper
ty Is considered almost ruinously cheap
gives some small idea IF the vast
sums that may be expended on ones
domicile. Eaton hall, the Duke of
Westminster's Cheshire seat cost the
late holder Of the title considerable
over 100000 sterling to build, and
probably, even this figure would go
only very small way toward purchas-
Ing any one of some score of London
houses as they stand.
Perhaps none Of these palaces strike
the visitor with a vivid sense of their
wealth more than do Spencer house, in
Arlington street, and Norfolk house. in
St James square. Stafford house, st.
James palace-the largest of them by
far-contains probably more moneys
worth than any of the others, but Is
not so lavishly decorated.
One may discover that for a single
sideboard without any history or age
to enhance its value the sum Of $500
may be paid; for suite to accom-
pany it another $500; for a carpet for
the dining-room, E75O; for curtains for
the same room, f12 a yard; on fire.

laid out; the tapestry and carved pam

rates 1t, will run away with $4,000.
Altogether. one may invest f11.17O on
the dining-room-one Of the cheapest
apartments in the house. The mere
mural decoration In the grand draw
ing-rOom will cost more, and Its other
appointments four or five times as
much. Then there will be three or
four smaller drawing rooms, boudoirs,
and mushrooms to furnish at a pro-
portionate cost; morning-room or two,
which will cost mere 10000 apiece;
library, that cannot very well be fur

less than fl2.O0O, including books.
With regard to the bedrooms, f700
apiece may be paid for some of the
suites and f1OO for the beds. These
figures are by no means fancy prices

such firm as Warnings they represent
items that there would be easily sup
