At Exeter hall, entering the domain
of the Strand board of works, an alb
lrupt change was made from celluloid
balloons to a line of Venetian masts,
parallel with the footways extending
to the law courts and the city limits.
The masts were of gold with b%annerets
between in graceful loopings, garlands
of paper and muslin flowers, which
were quite effective. The design was
light and striking.
The Griffin, the site of the old Tenn
pie bar, was so covered with decora-
tions for both day and night as tt be
almost unIecognizable. Garlands,
shields and national flags We're on the
four sides, while among the notices
The least common was, Victoria, Oar
Beloved Ruler of Great Britain
The prevailing color in Fleet street
was gold and white, and IL light arch
sPanned the street unlike the major
1ty of arches, suggesting the Indian
empire, as decorative use was made of
the elephant.
Ascending Luagate hill the sight was
most attractive. High walls of color
n immense seas of faces slipping up
to the great gray walls OF Christopher
Wren's masterpiece {St. Paul's cathe-
draD, which really seemed to rise out of
the hearts of the people-was a sight
tremendously impressive. Around the
cathedral the roadway had not been
decorated, but the abutting premises
We're clothed from corne to corner
stone with decorations rejecting and
emphasizing the whole genius of a peo-
pie represented here in symbol or in
substance.
Turning into C~heapside, there was
plenty of color, plenty of money spent,
but no effect that was noteworthy un-

til. passing out of it, the Mansion house
stood revealed, perhaps the most gor-
geous and artistic bit of decoration on
the entire route. From the central
Flagstaff was flown the royal standard,
surrounded by twenty-five national
banners mounted on flower wreathed
poles. In the center of the pediment
stood the shield of the city of London,
heraidicly colored, backed by a hand
some trophy of national flags, and
ianked on either side by large cornu-
copias. On the central cornice was the
inscription, God Bless Our Queen" in
gold letters, and on either side the dates
"lS37-1s97." The windows were decor
ated with crimson plush draperles, gold
ornaments and emblems typical of the
nation. A number OF heraldic shields.
backed by ermine NANTES and trophies
of national flags, adorned the front of
the building. In front of the balcony
there was 81 profuslon of blue plush
drapery ornamented in gold with i'm
perial crowns and monogra1ns and fin
shed with bullion fringe, rosettes and
tassels. The columns of the building
were entwined with wreaths and here
and there between depended rich bas-
kets Of flowers.
In short, by decorations as by every
thing else, London was Transformed
into a vast court at which an empire
rendered fealty to its sovereign.
The Procession.

He upHoLps HIS BRlDE-1o-BE
Governor Atkinson Says Charges
Against Mrs. Camden Are Due
to SDite Work.

Parkersburg, w. Va, June 23.-Gov-
ernorA Atkinson talked quite frankly and
freely today concerning the alleged
charges against Mrs. Myra Camden. He
says he is fully cognizant Of all the
facts connected with the Indictment
lodged by the Gilmer county grand jury
against Mrs. Camden for forgery, and
that he is thoroughly warranted in
,aying that there are no grounds what
ever to sustain the charges.
He further says hat the whole affair
Is the result Of an attempt on the part
ST some Of the heirs of Mrs. Camden's
late husband to harass and try to de-
stroy the happiness of the widow, and
that n of these heirs has recently
made open threats that she should never
marry the governor, but the governor
says emphauicaNy that the marriage
will take place according to the ar
rangements made some time since,
which, it is learned, will be next week.
The governor also say that the
charge that Mrs. Camden has been in
dicted for making false returns of her
property to the county assessor IS not
true.

Next the complement from the KAISER,
a deputntion from the First Prussian
dragons, then the most brilliant OF
all soldiery, the imperial service troops
from India. The special ENJOYS fol-
lowed in two-horse landaus from the
royal news. Then followed five four-
horse landaus carrying the princes
and princesses of blood.
Then the first part of the sovcreign's
escort, the second life guards, succeed
ed by an escort of foreign princes.
Many faces were recognized and
cheered. This brilliant escort was
composed of the flower. of EFroPe's
thrones. Following the princes came
rs a guard of honor twenty-five oili-
GERS of the native Indian cavalry. Re
hind them rode their commander in
chief. Then came the queens horse.
A cheer broke forth that seemed to
shake the ground, renewed again and
again, as her inajesty>s carriage ap-
preached, drawn by the famous eight
l~ianoverian cream colored horses, thcir
manes richly woven with ribbons OF
royal blue; saddle cloths of royal blue
velvet, with rich fringes OF bullion;

e%rywhere with the royal arms, liveries
and postillions in keeping with the
harness.

rode has a body of dark claret. lined

buckingham palace itself was UNI
decorated save for the Royal Standard,
which floated above it. The stands in
front and along the garden wall as far
as Hyde park corner, which We're filed
with civil servants, household servants
and their families, were more to be
noted for the happy faces they con-
tanned than for prominence in deco
ration, although the long lines of ma
tionnl color under the trees were de-
cidedly effective. Indeed. it was not
until passing Constitutional hill that
one was face to face with the great
eifect and noted what the gradual
adornment of the last month had led
to. All the old land marks We're there,
of course, but the streets We're trans
formed beyond recognition. 1t all
seemed some large fair or gigantic
festival. All the houses and clubs of
Piccadilly from Hyde park corner to
st. James street We're ablaze with null
ti-colored draperies relieved with hum
dred weights of flowers. Red, white
and blue was the prevailing combina-
ton, not only in buntings and cloths,
but also in blooms-Scarlet geraniums,

most artistic, scarlet drapcries fes-

there. The universal "N. r." with the
imperial crowns were not lacking.
ST. james street was completely
transformed and presented a brave APP
pearance with it's tall Venetian masts,
streamers, laurel wreuths and rich fes-
toons.
The Deyonshire club was notable

In Pail Mall much of the color was

as st. Pauls, though the two last are
enroute to the cathedral to consolidate
as it moves into P~iccadilly. The first
to take up the position was the colo
ninl procession, formed on the en-
~hanllnent,. which moved via the Mall,
thence past the palace, where. majesty
viewed it over the route to st. Paui's.
The march began at S:i5. the process

came a portion OF the queens north

cort to the Canadian premier, Hon

ing Premier Hon. Richard j. Seldom,
Cape Of Good Hope mounted rifles rode
before the Premier Hon. Sir j. Cor

to the premier OF New Foundiapd,

the national mounted troops and Pre-

miers being disposed OF, then succeed

mounted troops of the crown. Follow
ing came the real oddities, of which
the Seapitehs from Cyprus divided
honors with the Dyaks. of Rorneo.i
These and others emphasized the fact
how widely scattered are the races the
queen rules.
The second procession passed the
palace fifty minutes after tile coloni-'
ais. 1t more than el%oquently filled the

where there is want, and hunger, and
disease the year round she could have
found nc more striking evidence of her
abiding place in the hearts of the peo-
pie. The resplendant west end with
its crimson glory, great banners. tri-
umphal arches, portierres of costly
blossoms, meant no more, if half so
much as the tiny paper flag, the yard
or so of narrow red, white and blue
stretched along a window sill and
around a common flower pot with it's
single rose, modest decorations, which
formed today shrines for the children
of the shadows in the Whitechapel,
Sp%italfields, HoNton or Shoreditch, al
leyways.
1t is, however, to the six and three
quarter miles of the professional route
that one must TURF for what are con-
sidered the jubilee decorations. In
describing them it may be said at the
outset that the art of street decora-
ton is not understood i'll London.
While here and there much which is
beautiful meets the eye, it is not possi-
BILE to escape the fact that the ensem-
Bile has been ruined by lack of con-
certed effort. The mean employed
have been as varied MS the ends achiev-
ed. While there is plenty of red, white
and blue, the greatest reliance has
been placed on royal crimson trimmed
with gold. Notices are beautiful with
scrolls, banners, flags, the royal arms,
the imperial monogram, portraits of
the queen in every possible form of
reproduction. and unlimited in the
rich streets are countless costly bios
SONS but paper flowers have not been
disdained. especially in such decora-
lions as are in the street proper, and
the green of evergreen and fir and lau-
rel garment the triumphal arches.
Venetian masts with thin. idly waving
pcnnons, shields and standards of
flags, flowers and ferns lend more of
the picturesque than perhaps any
thing else. There were no scrolls or
decorations stretched across the
streets, by the queens express desire,
owing to an accident that befel in the
jubilee ten years ago, when Il falling

horses and disturb the sweet smile

people were determined to enjoy the
festival of patriotism and loyalty to
the utmost. A clear star-lit sky and
cool air kept the spirits of the crowd
at the topmost point throughout the
vigil. With dawn the hope of queens
weather merged into certainty. and
the world here has prepared itself in
the fullest confidence for the day of
pleasure.
Early Indications.
The earliest active indication of the
great event-apart from the people
waiting twas shortly before 6, the
arrival of vestrv carts to freshly gravel
the roalways after the fashion which
prevailed in the good old days of Sam
Pcpys. Then Il little later the newt
able precursor of any procession. the
police, began TO arrive in great num-
bers, 5000 being distributed along the
line of route. The streets ON the north
side of the Thames were closed 10 or
south side ut S Il. IN. London bridge
night, and Westminster bridge and
other bridges between, at ) o'clock
this morning, at which hour all per-

and London bridges.
The first great difficulty of the po-
lice was assisting owners of seats,
stands and houses to get to them,
they being permitted to drive TO them
up to 10 O'Clock. for there was a vast
interval between a title TO II seat and
actual possession. The crowds on the
sidewalks We're quite willing to give
passage to the favored mortals who
owned seats, but to do so was difficult
lit an attempt to divide six into
four with no remainder. And the diff
ficulty was further increased by the
arrival of the troops, after $50, tax
ing up their appointed places. The
wise, however, had reached their seats
i'll stands or obtained access to houses
where they had bought windows by Z
O'Clock or 1890. 1t was only the inev-
liable late corners who had to push
and struggle, in the east of ladies
much to the damage OF their toilets.

The bishop of London, in full canon
lcals, then read u short collect. after
which the archbishop of Canterbury
pronounced the benediction.
Then, amidst the further ringing of
bells q the singing Of the national
anthem. the queen started on her re-
turn to buckingham palace. As she
passed the multitude around the car
rage began singing, God Save tho
Queen" which continued till she was
long out of sight. AS her maiest,
entered the gates of buckingham pal
ace, at 2 o'clock, a gun in Hyde park
announced the great procession over.
The event had passed into history. The
sound OF royal salute was answered by
continued cheering, rs if the loyal
subjects had not yet satisfied their
ambition in that direction. Then the
crowd faded away as it came.
The queen entered the palace much
