"Nohe Dame de Paris"
History OF Grand Old Cathedral in the Capital IL

The cathedral church of Notre
Dame is almost as closely connected
with the history of the French people
as is the Abbey of Westminster with
mat of the English. The gray-white
building with its feet nearly washed
by the waters of the Seine, has seen
grand pageants and lurd tragedies
such as even Victor Hugo could not
write.

Facade of Notre Dame.

remained almost unaltered in outline
and general effect The storm of shot
and shell that has beat upon it has
seemingly destroyed only the detail,
and the revolutions that have surged
around it have receded leaving it
like mountain in the midst of the
sea.
Notre Dame cathedral is no less
written about than others because it
is less picturesque, it does not so
much excite the imagination. The in
tricacy of Rouen, the richness of
Reims, the fortress.like grandeur of
Bourges, and the elegant variety of
the Charities, these are wanting. Most
casual observers know it only as rath-
er squatty looking building with
two unfinished towers, and it is in its
sculptures and classic architecture
that it's greatest charm is found. The
interior is unique because of its dou-
BILE aisles, feature which is not seen
in English churches, even on so vast
a scale as Ely or Canterbury.
The stained glass was originally the
glory of the church, and the long
shafts of color that streamed in from
every window must, in the early days,
have been almost a marvel, if we are
to believe the writer's of those times.
These were destroyed, not by an in
furiated mob, but by those in au-
thority, who removed this priceless
material and replaced it by sheets of
dull color ornamented with the fleur
de lis.
Scene of Splendid Ceremonies.
1t has been the scene of many mag
nifcent ceremonies. Perhaps the most
splendid was the coronation of Napo-
leon and Josephine in the winter of
| 1904, a century and year ago. It
was on this occasion that Napoleon
took the crown from the hands of the
Pope and placed it haughtily on his
own head a proceeding which must
have been rather startling to his Holt
ness.
A great service was held there in
1910 to celebrate the restoration to
French soil of the remains of this
great leader.
It is natural that the whole French
nation has for Notre Dame a feeling

1928 and the towers under st. Louis.
The history of Notre Dame is in a
great measure the history of France.
Among the sculptured figures of this
cathedral is one collection unique tc
this structure, it is called "The Dew.
lis of Notre Dame" These weird
beasts scowl from the high parapets
on the people below. They are unlike
the gargoyles on other buildings in
this, while they have the faces of
beasts or monsters, they are positive
ly diabolical in their expressions Of
ferocity and cunning. They have
nothing in common with the crude
figures usually seen, for they are pos
sible creatures, you can imagine that
they live and breathe. They fasci-
mated the great etcher, Meryon, and
Joseph Pencil in his recent series of
drawings has made them of even
more immediate interest. There they
sit above the open air flower market
that is so charming a part of the
Paris of to-day, and grin and scowl on
the people below.
Demons and Fiends.
The one most noted through Mer-
yon's etching is a muscular demon
with high cheek bones, his lean chin
resting on his hands, he sits licking
his lips over the sins of Paris. Look
ing westward is grim fiend throt-
Ting rat, the embodiment of cruelty.
One monster grins with the very hor-
ror of laugh, another is in a sort of
comic despair. and near him a beast
bowls furiously at the city that is
beyond his reach There is dog
tearing at the bullock's throat, a
monstrous bird, apes. elephants and
| Shiny brutes with scales, dragons, and
| shapes of evil. There Is but one
human form among them, man who
twists his fingers in his beard, and
| strains out over the city as though
longing for release from all these hor-
rors.
There is a legend of the ruined
! churches in Provence which the poet
| Mistral has told which gives a most
vivid pen picture of these strange
monsters at the hour when the last
day is dead and the next one has not
been born.
Then the shadows become alive,
and these chimeras in response to the
deep PEAL of the bells, snuff the night
air and stride, shuttle or walk, each
with his own peculiar gait toward>the
summit of the bell tower. Through
the thick darkness are sounds of hol-
low laughter, of grinding claws, and
clapping wings, mingled with the wall
Of the wind. Then the first ray of
morning blazes upon the house and
the river, and the weird shapes creep
back to their own places; with a
murmur of returning life the city
wakes, and once more the cathedral
dies.
