Show MOUNT OF OLIVES PALACE DESCRIBED Bandmaster Tells of Beauties of Building Build-ing Completed Some Time Ago by Kaiser. LONDON, May 4. The palace on the Mount of Olives, completed some time ago by Emperor William, Is thus described de-scribed by a bandmaster attached to a divisional headquarters in the east whose band gave a concert there: Around the banquet hall, in which we performed, is a broad ledge some seven feet from the floor, upon which, at intervals of about two yards, crouch golden lions. Between these are electric lights in golden sticks. At one end, on a raised platform, are two massive carved chairs for the emperor and empress, with a circle cir-cle of smaller chairs behind for the imperial staff. There is also a church in the palace, pal-ace, containing a beautiful organ with silver pipes, and pulpit and lectern of solid marble. The ceiling Is beautifully beau-tifully painted, while on the walls are magnificent paintings in massive gold frames. The palace has its own electricity plant, postoftlce and bank. |
