tn RONDHJEM, Norway, June 90
d A town Of 10000, with some Of
- it's streets as broad as you will
find streets anywhere; every house re,
with flags, bunting and green's, every
native busy looking at the wondrous
things going on and at the 10000
strangers who have come so suddenly
from affair, such is Trondhlem, the cor
onation city.
Every hotel, cafe and other public
riages and cabs, flied with people, from
q king down to plain citizen, are
going here and there; prices of most
necessities have gone up to points that
remind one Of, say, Paris.
Coronations do not come often and
Trondhjem decided to make the most
of the opportunity. And the town did
well-very well, indeed.
The fact that T h e j ourna1 had
been able to give in advance full and
detailed accounts of what was to- take
place, was on this occasion most for
tunate, because it may now be said that
all the important features were carried
out exactly in accordance with the pro.
gram made up, beforehand and described
in my previous letters
T. The Coronation Day. $3.50
Altho the weather has been most
favorable during these days of festiv-
tiles, the coronation day, June %, it
looked somewhat unsettled, but the few
drops of rain that finally fell made no
depression of the high patriotic and fes-
tival spirit. 8.
At 10:45 every available seat in the
church was filled. About 2,16O per-
sons were admitted, and it is safe to
say that it was the most distinguished
deputation of three bishops and about
eighty priests met the royal couple at
the entrance and headed the procession
up the aisle toward the thrones.
The queen looked exceedingly gra-
cious when entering the church, and
her dress was too beautiful for the;
average male mind to appreciate. It
was, however, nearly all covered by the
royal robe which She had already put
on at the palace. The king was dressed
in the uniform of Norwegian general,
but also he had the royal robe on from
Stiftsgaarden. The expression on his
face when coming up the aisle was what
should like to term reassuringly dem
Of his dress. It was the face that at
once inspired all Norwe CLANS with con
fdence.
Of other royal personages present
there were Crown Prince Christian of
Denmark and the Crown Princess and
Prince Harald; the prince and princess
of Wales, Princess Victoria and the lit
tie Princess Mary, Grand Duke Michael
of Russia and Prince Henry of Ger

The School Children's Parade.
Sunday at l CLOCK some 5000 school
children formed into line and marched
to Stiftsgaarden. Every child carried
small Norwegian flag, and the girls
were all dressed in white. At the open
second-story main window the roval
family had placed themselves. The lit
tie Crown Prince Olav, whom the chill
dren on this occasion especially had
come to pay homage to, stood by his
father s side, holding small Norwe-
gian flag in his right hand and which
he waived vigorously when the chill
dren's cheers were given. The king
addressed the children. thanking them
for their courtesy, especially toward his
son, whom he hoped they all would
learn to- love and to stand by when he
grew up. Sc In conclusion the king re-
quested three cheers for the fatherland,
and they were given with such warmth
as only children can show. Then the
king asked them to sing ia vi Ell

songs, among them new children 8

For over three years the engineers
