Next viii come the ceremonies which

presentation OF the sword of state, the
standards and the spurs, and then the orb

The orb is a golden ball, six inches in
diameter and II inches high, including the
cross, which surmounts the orb. Diamonds,
rubies, emeralds, sapphires and pearls are
set in the orb; also, fine amethyst, which
forms the pedestal of the cross. When the
crown is finally placed upon the monareh's
head, instantly all that great crowd of peers
and peeresses put on their glittering coro-
nets, and the abbey rings with "God save
the King!"
According to official rules, in theory, the
coronets of the nobility are never worn ex-
cept at the coronation of sovereign, when
they are put on at the precise moment when
the primate of England places the crown
upon the brow of the king. Upon occasions
of state the coronet is carried before the
parsonage on a cushion, and at the funeral
it is placed on the coffin, or borne on pur-
pie cushion.
The shouts of God save the King" are

KING EDWARD VII. IN HIS CORONATION ROBE.

occasion of the diamond jubilee in 1897, but
great as this undoubtedly was, it will be ex-
celled by the royal pageant to be carried out
June %.
The reception of the king and queen by the
lord mayor will be suggestive of medieval
times. 1t is one of the ancient privileges of
the city of London to bar, if need be, even
the progress of king into its wealthy do
main. Therefore, when the king and queen
ride in state along the Strand and reach the
law courts, quaint little ceremony will be
gone through with stately solemnity ere the
royal cavalcade proceeds on its way.
At the spot where old Temple Bar used to
stand, but where now an inartistic monu-
ment nicknamed E'The Griffin" occupies the
center of the narrow roadway, the lord
mayor, with his mace bearer, his sword
bearer, and all the retinue of the Mansion
house, will await the coming of royalty. 1t
may be that, with proper regard for effect,
replica of the ancient gates of the city will
shut off Fleet street from the Strand in
much the same way was done with such
striking effect when the late queen made
her triumphal entry into Dublin year be-
fore her death. Whether this be so or not,
there will be a demand as to who comes
there on behalf of the representatives of Cog
and Magog, and when it is made known that
1t is their majesties, then the lord mayor

and as evidence of loyalty will hand to his
majesty the keys of the city These, in due
course, will be handed back, and the lord
mayor will then lead the way down Fleet
street, past st. PauPs as far as the Mansion
house, where doubtless he will take leave of
the royal party.
Another interesting ceremony will be the
cutting of the first sod for the Queen Vic
toria memorial to be erected Immediately in
front of Buckingham palace. This will be
done by King Edward in the presence of his
illustrious guests gathered from all parts of
the world. The happy idea of beginning this
great national undertaking at the time of
the coronation originated with his majesty,
who rightly considers that the presence in
London of so many foreign royalties and
diplomatic personages is an opportunity
that the nations of the world will gladly
seize to pay tribute to the memory of

Coronation of EDWARD VII.
Being Account of How His Majesty Will Be
Crowned King of Great Britain and Ire
land and Emperor of India.
Thursday, June 70,

ENlN THURSDAY, June 26, Edward
VII. viii be crowned king of
"a Great Britain and ireland and
emperor of India. All the machinery
of the government and the energies
of English political and Social life
have for months been directed to-
wards perfecting arrangements for
this unique event, which promises to
be the most splendid coronation in
the history of the United Kingdom.
Thursday seems to have been a
popular day for crownings. June 20
is the anniversary of the day on
which Oliver Cromwell was installed
as lord protector in Westminster
hall. 1t is also notable that the fol-
lowing English monarchs have been
crowned on a Thursday: Stephen,
John, Richard H., William and Mary,
Queen Anne, George ", William ",
and Queen Victoria. That is a fair
collection of lucky and unlucl1y mon
archs, which makes it difficult for any
superstitious person to gather omens
for the day chosen.
Edward VII, the chief figure in the
grand event, was born November 9,
1871, and succeeded his mother Janu-
airy %, 1901. He was married to
Princess Alexandra of Denmark
March 10, 1863. Their oldest living
son, George Frederick, prince of
Wales, was born in 1865, and mar
ried Princess May of Teck in 1893.
The other living children of the royal
couple are Louise Victoria, duchess of
Fife; Maud, Princess Charles of Den
mark, and Princess Victoria Alex
andra.

RIvULETs OF WINE.
Extraordinary Extravaganza of
Some of EngInnd's Early Kings
at Their COrOnatiOns.

The Edwards have almost without
exception displayed unwonted gener-
osity towards their poorer subjects
upon their installation, Edward 7.
being the founder of the custom of
providing a public banquet on such
an occasion. In this instance $4,000
poor were invited to partake of
hearty meal, which resulted in the
consumption of $50 oxen, 900 pigs and
sheep, 10000 fowls and other viands,
1000 cooks being employed to pre-
pare the feast. But Edward had
reckOned without the cost, and when
the bill was presented to him he was
compelled to resort to parliament
for special grant to cover expenses,
says London Tit-Bits. Among the
visitors to do him homage at the
coronation ceremony was Alexander
of Scotland, who, anxious to impress
the people of London with his gen.
crosby, liberated 500 of the finest
Highland horses in the streets, which
tain.
Several monarchs have caused the
fountains to run with wine, which
was the cause of a tragic incident
at the coronation of the Conqueror.
While the ceremony was in progress
a proclamation was read in the city
announcing that by the kings orders
the water conduits would run with
wine for one hour on the following
day. Such cheering greeted this an
nouncement that the Norman gar
rison, believing the English had re-
volted, fell upon the masses, burnt
the houses and slaughtered over
thousand people before the mistake
was explained.
Richard II. ordered the conduits in
the Cheape to run with wine for
three hours on his coronation day:
and castle which then stood in the
center of this historic street poured
forth four kinds of wine from its
towers all day. Henry ". kept the
Cheapside fountains running with
red and white wine for "a hours, but
Mary provided the masses with an
entertainment only as a means of
showing her bounty. She paid one
Peter, a Dutchman, 16 13s. 4d. to
perform acrobatic feats on the dome
of st. Paul's, to witness which so
great a crowd assembled that sever
al people were trampled to death.
A noteworthy fact about the coro-
nation banquet of Edward IL. was
that. although 5000 people were in
vited, the food was so badly cooked
that half the visitors had to go away
with their appetites unappeased,
which so enraged the new king that
he ordered the cooks to be brought
before him and had 60 of them hung
the same day.
Perhaps the most costly coronation
feast was that provided by Henry
III. in TothiII Fields. For eight days
London was fed by the new monarch
and wine was served out to rich and
poor alike freely, for which purpose
five shiploads were brought up the
Thames. Another elaborate banquet
was that given by George ~, which.
is also memorable as being the last
held in Westminster Hall. The vast
quantity of 1900 pounds of meat,
400 dishes of fish and entrees, and
1000 fowls was distributed to all and
sundry, and, in addition, 1000 gallons
of wine were drunk, this being the
first coronation feast at which cham
payne was used.

Instead of going direct to their thrones
the royal pair will kneel in private prayer
on footstools in front of their chairs. Then
the archbishop of Canterbury, the lord
high chancellor, the lord great chamberlain
and the Garter King of Arms, each in turn,
will formally present the king, the lords
carrying the regalia will step up and the
dean of Westminster viii place the regalia
on the altar.
The abbreviated htany and part of the
communion service will follow.
Then the archbishop will recite the Nj

Then the kings cap and crimson robe will
be removed and four Garter knights will

Canterbury will anoint the king, making
the sign of the cross on the top of his mai
esty's head, thus consecrating him liking

The king will then kneel and the dean
of Westminster will invest him with the

spiritual, who kneel about him, pronounce
the words of homage and kiss his hand.
Princes of the blood royal ascend the steps
of the throne, take off their coronets, re-
peat the homage, touch the crown upon the
kings head, and kiss his left cheek. The
peers of the realm follow suit, with the ex-
ception that they kiss the hand instead of
the cheek. The words of homage are:
81 do become your iege-man of life and
limb, and of earthly worship, and faith and
truth L viii bear unto you to live and die
against all manner of folk, so help me, God"
When the act of homage is over, the mem
bers of the house of commons give nine
hearty cheers, with cries of "God save the
King" repeated by all.
During homage medals are thrown to the
occupants of the choir and lower galleries.

Partisanship Ignored.

Kansas City, to succeed her husband,
John A. Adams, who died in office.
Mr.. Adams was elected as repub-

his wife is also republican, while
Mayor Craddock is a democrat and

of Kansas. His action in laying aside
partisanship to give the place to Mrs.
