"Some of the FYench newspaper men declared unthinkingly perhaps that In the point of the numbers fed and In the sumptuousness of the banquet it, .was tbe greatest affair of the kind ever given 'In the world If the Parts correspondents are Frenchmen they are to be forgiven, perhaps, for leaving out of their calcula:, tioo' another Parisian feast given nearly five hundred years ago. At that banquet 100,000 people were fed. Wine was not served from bottles, but the revelers filled their flagons and cups from fountains whlbh ran of champagne and Burgundy throughout the livelong day. It was the English King Henry V. who gave this feast, and it was in celebration of his conquest of France and of his being declared- - kipg regent of that country. Of a truth the Parisians may be forgiven if their minds revert not to that former festival. As a matter of fact there are in gastronomic history scores of dinners ttiaLoutdid-i-n of diners and iarihaelegauceot appointment-ih- aone which the government of France gave to the mayors of the countrys municipalities.

That feast was held on a raft made of gilded timbers, the structure being moored to the shore mamby means of golden ropes The whole earth contributed of Us birds, mals. fish and plants to the spreading forth of the table. The entire revenue of a Roman province for & year went to pay the cost. The canopy which was spread pver the heads of the diners was of Syrian purple, while the glassware was the plunder of Italy, Greece and Asia Minor." The "cost of the French mayors banquet, putting It at $250,000, sinks into the pit of Insignificance compared with the amount of money which a single man, Marcus Gabius, spent on his appetite.
