Both of these crowns are at present Among the crown jewels in the iron-barred place of safekeeping in Wakefield tower, which
 is one of the buildings that helps mike the Tower of London. From out any, one of several windows in Wakefield tower the visitor may look down upon the parade where soldiers are drilling most of the day. At the further end of the parade is Tower Green, green spot in the middle ofwhich Queen Anne Boleyn, Margaret, Countess of Salisbury, Queen Katherine Howard, Jane, Viscountess Rockford, Lady Jane Grey, Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex, and many others were beheaded St. Edwards crown was made for the coronation of Charles II. in 1861. There has never been any attempt to arrive at its value, which Is roughly es- timated at f385, 900 sterling. Two good sized pear-shaped pearl pendants on the top of the crown are known to be worth f9,00o.
 This crown and that of Queen Victoria rest among crown jewels valued at more than 87,000,000. They rest in a great case inside the iron-barred affair at the top of Wakefield tower in room which is said to have been used by Henry VII. for his devo- tions while prisoner in the tower and where he was murdered. The intrinsic value of the crown of Queen Victoria is something over f3,OO0,OO0. It rests at the top of the case and was made in 1888 for the corona ton of the queen. Its chief jewels were taken from older crowns and from the royal collection. Among these is an enormous ruby which came into the possession of England from Spain in 1867. It's history is dated back to a much earlier period. With 75 brilliant and large diamonds it forms a Maltese cross on the front of the diadem. Below it is a magnificent sapphire. There are seven other large sapphires, eight large emeralds and many hundreds of diamonds decorating the band and arches. A cross at the top of the crown is made up of rose cut sapphire and four large diamonds. In all there are 2,7OO diamonds and many other jewels in the crown, which weigh over 39 ounces In this collection, too, are the orb

THE CORONATION CHAIRS.
The One to Be Occupied by the King
 Was Made for Edward l.

The chairs on which the king and queen Nill rest are known as the coronation chairs. That to be occupied by the king was last used by Queen Victoria at the jubilee, and yet bears the colors of that oc- casion. This chair was made for Edward l. to inclose in its seat the famous stone of Scone. Tradition identifies this stone with the one on which Jacob rested his head at Bethel. His sons carried it to Egypt, and from thence it found it's way to Spain with King Gathelus, son of Cecrops, the builder of Athens. About 700 B. c. it appeared in Ireland, where it was carried by Spanish kings son upon an invasion of the tight lit tie isle. There it was placed upon the sa- cred hill of Tara, and became known as the "stone of destiny" It was claimed that when the Irish kings were seated upon it at coronations the stone groaned aloud if the claimant was of royal race, but remained silent if pretender.
 It is claimed for this remarkable piece which is really Scotch sandstone, that in 330 B. C., Fergus, the founder of the Scot tish monarchy, and who was of Ireland's royal blood, received it in Scotland where King Kenneth, in $50 A. D., deposited it in the monastery of Scone. It is certain that the stone was for centuries an object of veneration to the people of Scotland They fancied that while it remained in their country Scots would be monarchs of that realm. When Edward l. overran Scotland he seized the stone and took it to England where, in l297, it was placed and kept in Westminster Abbey, notwithstanding the repeated efforts of the Scots to reclaim it. Ever since the sovereigns of England have been crowned upon this chair. The chair upon which the queen will rest was made for the coronation of William and Mary.

As the day for the crowning of King Edward VII. and his consort, Queen Alexandra, draws near, inter- est in the elaborate ceremonies that is to make of it one of the gorgeous show feature of the century in- creases. This interest attaches to everything connected with the event; 1t attaches to historic old Westmins- ter Abbey, to the coronation, chairs, to the people who will manage the great show, and to the crowns and robes. For that reason we give be- low description of these things.

WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
Some Wonders of the Structure Where Browning Will Take Place.

Some Wonders of the Structure
 Where Browning Will Take Place.
 The coronation will occur in Westminster abbey in about the only open chapel in that wonderful structure. This chapel is raised about five feet from the surrounding floor of the abbey, and is at least 50 feet square It is approached by five stone steps running the full length of the chapel. A railing of a half dozen long, rounded wooden bars and about four feet in height prevents entrance except through low wooden double gates. At the back Is long altar. An immense antique valuable rug covers the altar steps. Another rug, smaller, yet very large one at that, is laid just inside the entrance. On this will be placed the coronation chairs in which the king and queen will be seated. To one side are stalls, the same, with cush- toned benches much after the style of cozy corners, lining the side of the chapel. From all sides ON the floor of the abbey in that section of the building, save from the back, where is the altar, it would be possible to obtain an almost unobstructed view of the coronation ceremonies. The railing at the back of the altar separates this chapel from the chapel of Edward the Confessor, who reigned about l042. The ceremony of coro- nation will be performed by the archbishop

of Canterbury. The king and queen will then ascend raised throne erected for the occasion, where they will receive the homage of the peers.
 The first coronation in this chapel, which is commonly called the choir, was that of William the Conqueror in l066. Since then this plain and ancient looking raised plat form or chapel has witnessed all corona tions. The floor of the chapel is a mosaic pavement of curious design. The materials for the pavement were brought from Rome and laid about l26S. The pavement is com posed of various kinds of marbles and porphyry interspersed with Le in inscrip- tions in bronzed letters. The s. oundwork is English marble and the whole has been greatly injured.

KING EDWARDS ROBES.
They Are EccIesticaI Garments an&
 Worn Only on This Occasion.


 The robes which King Edward will wear while being crowned, and afterward while receiving the sacrament, are ecclesiastical vestments, and worn only upon this occa- sion by the sovereign. They are assumed in Westminster abbey, and taken off there, after which the robe of state of purple velvet is put on. When the king enters the abbey he wears a crimson velvet cloak. The cor onation robes proper, then, are the priestly vestments, and consist of dalmatic stole and maniple. The dalmatic is long robe or super-tunic, partly open at the sides, of cloth of gold richly embroidered in colors, with Tudor roses, shamrocks, thistles, heur- de-lls and royal coronets, and lined with crimson; the stole of bullion embroidery. with floral designs, has the cross of St. George worked at each end it is lined with crimson silk The stole is worn deacon wise-that is, while a priest would wear it crossed over his breast, deacon fastens it on his left shoulder, and crossing it over his breast secures the end under his right arm. The maniple, which much resembles the stole, only smaller, is worn over the left arm.
 The reason given for attiring a layman in vestments worn only by the clergy is that the monarch represents the church, and is the protector of its privileges. Be- fore the amounting the king is conducted into St. Edwards chapel and vested in these ecclesiastical garments. and after tn. act of homage they are laid aside.
