The Various IIuminations.
The main thoroughfares, miles of
which We're gay with flags and bunt-
ing In June, are now stripped except
for the Illumination fixtures, which
were allowed to remain in place.
Cheapside, Fleet street and the Strand,
all told, contain scarcely six decorated
buildings. The weather outlook for to-
morrow is uncertain and the weather
bureau is trying hard to find an excuse
for hopeful forecast
Westminster is the center of what
little activity London displays The
chief stands in the vicinity of ST. Mar
garet'S have been redecorated and Pic
cadiliy refurnished with crimson Vene-
tan maSts, supporting trophies and
1O1na6 of h1Y,a
ing. The same general scheme pre-
walls IN Pail Mall. Many clubs stands
have disappeared. The private stands
recovered in crimson, are doing fair
business, prices for seats running from
$40 to $50, with the cheaper classes
sold out
One of the most striking schemes of
decoration is on the big building of
the Automobile club in Piccadilly, the
front of which is studded with 200 big
acetylene motor lamps, promising a
brilliant display at night.
The 1ncandeScent Illumination pro-
| duces the best effects of all the decora-
tons. A remarkable feature to Amer
lcan eyes is the. general use of gas in
preference to electricity. The Bank
OF England, the Mansion house and
| many private buildings are covered
with an unsightly maze of pipes with
hundreds Of small burners, globes and
crystal devices containing the crown
and the royal cipher Westminster
abbey today received the precious re-
gaia, which was taken under strong
| guard from the tower, and also A
wealth of gold and silver plate from
Buckingham palace, all of which was
| guarded tonight by a strong detach-
ment of life. guards and yeoman
| guards.
Arrival of the RegaIia.
| The arrival of the regalia from the
| tower at Westminster abbey made a
stirring scene. A gorgeous state coach,
| with royal footmen in state livery, and
| closely hedged about with prancing
| troopers of the household cavalry,
swung up to the abbey, and cavalcade
| quickly disappeared under the cloister
| archway. A Gordon of police stretched
itself suddenly across the street, shut
| ting out the public, while the horses
| came to standstin and the cavalry
formed a screen. The ceremony of the
| transference of the regalia was super
| intended by Maj. Gen. Ellis, controller
/ Of the kings household, while the
kings bargemaster was in attendance,
| as is his duty whenever the kings
| crown is removed from one place to
another. AS soon as the jewels were
| deposited in the Jerusalem chamber
a force of yeoman mounted guard over
! them, while extra forces of policemen
! were on duty outside the abbey
! throughout the night.
| The Gazette tonight announced that
! King Edward had established a new
imperial service order "for the recog-
milton of merit in the house and col
| oniaI civil services after a service of
/ the twenty-five years or sixteen years
| In an unhealthful colony"
