Kaiser Plans a Massive Cathedral
For Berlin.
The kaiser is ambitious to create a
monumental structure in Berlin which
shall match Westminster abbey in Lon
don, says the New York World. At
present the remains of the former lead
ers of the Hohenzollern family are
scattered. But Kaiser Wilhelm IL cred
tied with the intention Of gathering all
his forefathers under roof. The
massive cathedral opposite the royal
castle is now in the last stages Of COM
pletion, and this costly temple is to
serve as the German Westminster un-
less fate interferes. 1t is decided that it
will serve as the resting place of Will
liam IL.
The kaiser recently inspected the in
terror of the cathedral, which 10 all
completed except for the rich mosaic
interior adornments. Already 10000
600 marks (;4,OOO,OOO) has been expend-
ed on the structure, which will be the
greatest attraction in the architectural
and artistic line that Berlin will offer
place of worship, and the pews have
nearly all been reserved for the high
court officials and members of the roy
al family.
1t has always been the dream Of the
kaiser to create a magnificent temple
in which the remains of the members
Of the Hohenzollern family should be
inferred under one roof.

PRESIDENTS NEW OFFICES.


Plnin but Substantial Equipment OF

north side opens Oh Il hail, which Sepa-

anteroom and the office reserved lor
Mr.. Cortelyou from the cabinet Don
Mr.. Cortelyou's office connects with Il
large room which occupies the. whole
eastern wing Of the building and which
is reserved for the executive clerks.
There are no fripperies about the
building: The clerks office and the
pressroom are furnished in oak. The
walls are simply painted, without orna-
mental design. This scheme of paint
ing is the same throughout the build
ing. The presidents room, Mr.. Cor
telyou's office and the cabinet room are
furnished in mahogany.
The presidents desk is a massive at
fair, carved out Of great timber and
highly polished. Mr.. C%ortelyou's desk
is almost a duplicate OF it. The table
in the cabinet room is of old carved
mahogany. The chairs surrounding it
are upholstered in dark colored leather.
Similar chairs are used throughout the
Offices wherever possible.
A feature of the offices are deeply re-
cessed tireplaces of natural brick, sur
mounted by severe mantels of white
pine. Little electric brackets are the
only ornaments of the rooms. The
floors are covered with India rugs.

NEW HONOR FOR Upton.
King Suxgests He Act as Guide For
Prince and Princess OF Wales.

King Edward has suggested, says o
staff correspondent of the New York

innate of his chums, that he would
like to have him serve as guide, phi
losopher and friend to the Prince and
Princess of Wales if thy go to Amer
lea to attend the st. Louis exposition in
1904.
The choice of Sir Thomas is due part
~ to a desire to honor a man who has
the knack of being on such friendly
terms with both the king and the
queen and partly to the notion that he
would be the best man to show to the
royal couple what is best worth seeing
in the commercial development OF
America,
Although Lord Salisbury refused to
accede to the kings request to make
Sir Thomas Upton a lord and resigned
from the premiership in consequence.

"The United States, like an enchant-
