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
it is their majesties then the lord mayor
will ride bareheaded into the royal presence,
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. Paul's as far as the Mansion
house, where doubtless he will take leave Of

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 a tribute to the memory Of
Queen Victoria.

KING EDWARD VII. IN HIS CORONATION ROBE.

Thursday seems to have been u
popular day for crownings. June 26
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 Thursday: Stephen,
John, Richard H., William and Mary,
Queen Anne, George ", William w.,
and Queen Victoria. That is fair
collection of lucky and unlucky mon
archs, which makes it difficult for any
superstitious person to gather omens
for the day chosen.
1t is reported from London that
King Edward will abolish many of
the old customs connected with the

very much like princes. For the time being
they will outrank Mr.. Choate, the American
ambassador at London, and all other diplo-

BRITISH CROWN JEWELS.
They Are Valued Mt $35, 600, 900 by Ex-
perts in Precious stones,

These ancient chairs are not the only GU
rious things with which King Edward will
have to do during the coronation ceremo-
mes. He will first OF all wear st. Edwards s
crown, the model by which all latter-day
crowns have been fashioned. At the con-
clusion of the ceremonies he will have placed
upon his head the crown of Queen Victoria.
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 make 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.
