MAGNIFICENT STREET PAGEANT

Though the Ceremony Was Bereft of
Some of the Elaboration Originally
Contemplated, 1t Lacked Little In
the Spectacular Portion.
London, Aug. 9.-King Edward and
Queen Alexandra were crowned in
Westminster abbey shortly after noon
today. Though the ceremony was
bereft of some of the celebration and
pageantry originally contemplated, it
lacked little in the spectacular por,
ton. $
The whole ceremonial was Of a
magnifcently decorative character and
presented constantly changing pano-

crown on his head and his scepter

After singing BE Strong and Play

knelt while he received the benedic-

The news of the crowning was an

through London and was received with
cheers which spread to stands and
crowds far up the streets as the bells
pealed 1oyfully.
The queen was crowned at 1886.
The departure of the king and queen

Animated Scene.

BY $50 o'clock the scene in the vi
cinity of the palace and the Mall was
extremely animated. The roof of the
palace and those of all the surround.
ing buildings were crowded with spec
tators. and the constantly arriving
members of the royal family, with
their suites and the appearance OF
other participants in the procession
enlisted cheers varying in degree Of
enthusiasm according to the popular
ity of the personages recognized by
the people,
Almost as animated was the scene
in Westminster abbey, where bands
o.music stationed about the building
relieved the tedium of the early wait
ing. and soon after the doors were
opened state carriages and automO
biles ratified up in a ceaseless line.
AS the hour appointed for the de-
parture of the royal procession ap-
preached, the excitement about Buck
ngham palace was most marked.
Punctual to the time the advancing
guard of the royal cayalcade issued
from the archway, the horses of the
troopers cavorting nervously as they
faced the wall of humanity that cheer
ed their coming.
Shortly afterwards came the Prince
and Princess of Wales procession, ana
finally, after a minute his majesty's
carriage at the gateway and the king
and queen smiled and bowed in re-
sponse to the roar of cheers which
dwarfed all previous welcomes. The
scene in the vicinity was remarkable.
On the roof of the palace were perch
ed a number of fashionably dressed
ladies, members of the household, and
entered the royal coach gave the
handkerchiefs as the king and queen
entered the royal coach gave their
signal for the deafening plaudits OF
the populace which greeted their maj
estes as they entered from the
gates. The ovation was taken up by
the crowds which thronged the Mall
