There to Pursue Studies. ARCHITECTURE IS SPLENDID Ancient Buildings Preserved, But in Concealed Places. COST OF LIVING INCREASES Mausoleum of Lorenzo the Magnificent?Palaces of the di Medicis and Other Noble Fathers. BY WILLIAM K. CURTIS, special Correspondence of The Star anil the Chicago Record-Herald. FLORENCE, April 0, 1910. I have not had time to visit the I'fflzi fallery, which, as everybody knows, is me of the three greatest in the world, ?ut 1 am told that the Italian government las recently introduced steam heat. Tliis will be conducive not only to the omfort but to the health of the thouands of students who are working there very day. and who. in the winter, were learly frozen because the temperature of he ancient palace of the di Medicis is imilar to that of the polar circle for four lonths in the year. Although Florence is considered the [tost delightful of a!) Italian cities for a esidencc. its winters are very severe, 'he ice-laden winds from the Apennines ome down the valley of the Arno. A avorite author mentions that physicians ay: "They can scarcely conceive how people an live in Florence in the winter, or iow they can die there in the summer." The brother of the late Senator Quay of 'ennsylvania, who is the American conul here, says he "has been told there are ix hundred Americans in Florence, but oes not believe there are more than half hat number. Only two hundred are reg*tered at the consulate, most of whom, e says, are "remittance" people and live ere because it is cheaper than in the Tnited States. Many are drawn here also because of lie climate, the ait and historical assoiatlons, the society, the opportunities for tudy and for other reasons. About onealf of the Americans are students in ne line or another. - A- _ A* ?? - * v/ost or liiving nigner. Expenses in Italy have increased from 0 to 100 per cent, however, during the ist ten or twelve years. The charges at he fashionable hotels are quite as high s those in New York, which is due in a leasure to the fact that they have introuced modern conveniences in the way of ot and cold water, bathrooms, steam eat and electric lights and they are ware that their rich patr ns are perfect/ willing to ppy for them. House rents and the prices of food of very kind have nearly doubled within the ist ten or twelve years. Every article in he list of the necessaries of life has adanced considerably, so that it is no anger much cheaper to live here than it 3 in the United States. American-Owned Villas. Twelve $r fifteen villas are owned and ccupied by American families. I decribed in my letter yesterday Mr. Ellsworth's Villa Palmieri and spoke of the "ilia Bellariposo of ex-Gov. Fletcher Imith of Vermont, the Doccio villa of lenry W. Cannon of New York, the .andor villa, which belonged to the late >rof. Flske of Cornell University. In addition to these Mrs. Sherrlll Dodge f Buffalo has the Villa Curonla: the iowell family of Boston has recently >ought an estate in the immediate vicinty of the city; Mr. Herron of Cincinnati ias a beautiful place, and Virgil C. Gilaour of the same city has bought an .nclent villa on the top of a hill, which 1 one of the most attractive places about 'lorence. Walter Spalding of Chicago has a "palzzina," which means a small palace, hat formerly belonged to Talleyrand, tils on, Albert .Spalding, who is rapidly aiuing fame as a violinist, was eduated here by Signor Chitti. There are a large number of American oung men and young women studying iusIc and languages and other things, 'here is an American school here, where Lmerican girls are taught by American eachers, and Count and Countess Lazari, formerly of New York, at No. 30 'ia Delia Scala, have a home where hey take >oung ladies and. keep them he year around, teaching them manners nd literature, history, music, 1 fthey esire it; all the modern languages and very other accomplishment that Amerian young women ought to acquire. There Is no more comrortabie or atraetlve home in Kurope, as many famies from the T'nited States can testify. Irs. Grover Cleveland spent the winter rtere, and the Villa I>azzari is always lied with the very best of people. There are many pensions and boarding ouses scattered in different parts of the Ity in which accommodations are furished according to the price that Is paid ir them. They are well patronised by lie families as well as students and remittance people" from America. Architecture of Florence. The architecture of Florence is suposed to furnish the best examples in exitence of all the different schools of that rt. The greatest architects that ever ved have left the imprint of their genius pon the crooked streets of this old city, t is unfortunate that the buildings canot be seen to better advantage. It is difficult to explain, when the world i so wide and there is so much vacant rea in the valley of the Arno, why men ho had the money and the taste to erect nch magnificent buildings should have laced them where they cannot be seen. >nly a few of the finest'structures, such s the Pltti Palace, the Palace Veochlo nd that incomparable group of archl ctural gems, the cathedral, the baptis- ' ry and the Campanile, or cathedral jwer, can be seen to advantage because f the open spaces around them. ] The Florentines preserve their sacred i laces, both because they regard them as 1 Jeals and because they are a source of i Teat pecuniary profit. The largest item i f revenue for the city comes from tour- i sts, and the American citizens alone raiding in Florence paid taxes last year ] ipon $782,000 worth of real estate, and he English colony is even more nu- i rierous and wealthy. There has been considerable complaint lecause some of the historical structures lave been demolished, but such vandalism las been trifling compared with what has iccurred in Rome. The Florentines have . lot torn away historical structures to pen boulevards and build" hotels and ipartment houses, as has been done in he Eternal city, for, although the popuatlon has grown considerably within the ast half century, the industrial and comnerclal Interests have adjusted themelves without great damage to the arhitectural monuments. The best examples of architecture and iearly all the important historical places lave been carefully spared, while houses < >f special interest, such as those of )ante. Tasso, Boccaccio, Oallleo, Tosanelll and the great artists have all been narked, and some of them, like that In vhich . Michelangelo lived, hava been onverted into museums and are open to lie public. Some Splendid Dwellings. The finest examples of residential archiecture are the Palazzo Riccardi, now ised as a city hall, and the Palazzo Jtrozzl, which is one of the few of the Lnclent dwellings still occupied by the 'amities of those who built them. The atter was erected in 1480 by a Venetian nerchant, whose descendants have been :?lebrated In politics, science, arms and ix t. 1 Their achievements are part of Florenlne history and they have been allied by 1 narrtage to many of the most noble and 15c Curtain Swiss, Tuesday at 9lAc a Ydo 100 pieces of Yard-wide Curtain 11 Swiss, tn a large assortment of dots from pin to coin spot, also figures, i Excellent quality for summer cur\ tains, scarfs and draperies. i Tnmnrrnw of ni/ ^ . j s j 1 I ..vn ?i o7r. iiru insiesa i ( Of 15c.

His tomb is ai one of the splendid specimens of Floren- C| tine architecture and cost $2,000,000, lc which in those days went as far as $10,- tl 000,000 would go today. ** It was designed by Mlchaelangelo and ai contains some of the best work of that oi greatest of artists, but he whose power s< and wealth were unlimited and to whom it the world owes the splendor of this great city and the development of fifteenth ai century art is nothing now but dust, and a recent investigations have shown that his n< body has been stripped of the jewels oi which were burled with him. p] In 1805, for some reason or another, it ti was decided to open the tombs of the w De Medicts, when, to the horror of all concerned, it was discovered that the oi coffins had been plundered. When this m was done nobody knows. It might have gi been centuries ago, and probably was. hi The moment the caskets were opened ai the skeletons crumbled to dust, with the tl exception of two bodies, which remained pi in a remarkable state of preservation.

There is said to be some prospect that the estate will be divided and ine-half, or at least a life interest, in the income, given to her. This, however, can be done only by compromise.

It was also provided in the will that he flFst-born of each marriage among lis descendants should' be named Anton, f a boy. or Antolne, if a girl, and no telr in any generation can Inherit the woperty unless he or she bear those rnmes. This condition cannot be fulllled by a legal change of name. \Yhover inherits the property must have that abel attached at the baptismal font in fancy.
