ONDON, Nov. 21.-"Upon my
soul" said Lord Knolys at the
carlton club the other day.
american women are the most
previous creatures under the sum- At
this early date. am told by the lord
chamberlain those who have the en-
tree at the Coronation are inundating
him with questions" He went on to
say that American women had as great
Il love OF a pageant as the late King
Edward and 4 far greater appreciation
of magniticencc.
Certainly their ladyships from the
United States do not intend to be
caught mapping. Not-only have they
been buying ormine and exquisite lace
for the great ceremony OF next year,
hut some of them have sent their state
carriages TO be rc-dccoratcd and up
holstcred already The manager of
one of the Oldest and most aristocratic
carriage builders in London told me
he had five state carriages to embellish.
The countess of Granard, too. is
having a superb coach built: the shape
is, I am told, to be especially novel
and picturesque. There was an oil
one in Lord Granard's coach house.
but the countess pronounced it ram
shacklc and antiquated.'' The new ono

leather, which, in itself. means small
fortune.
WILL DWARF KINGS HORSES.
Great difficulty is being experienced
in getting horses of the requisite height
for state coach. Irish horses, being
mostly of this size. are In great de-
rnand, and Lady GranRrd has already
secured some magnificent high step
pcrs, finer even than those which will
convey the king and queen to West
minister Abbey. For truth to tell some
of the horses in the imposing royal
cuu.pagc are venerable beasts, Ions IN
the service, many of them having done
duty in the days of Queen Victoria.
The American ambassadors state
coach is splendid turnout, modern
and up-to-date in every respect. Quite
regal is it's lining of deep cardinal
leather. Right ON top OF the coach in
front Is a small silver eagle with out
stretched wings. On the doors are
painted flags representing the stars
and stripes and the private crest oi
monogram of the ambassador.
Most of the representatives of for
rign nations use state coaches at great
royal functions. but others content
themselves with ordinary barouches.
No doubt at the Forthcoming ccre-
mony even automobiles will be used
by numbers of the nristocracy who
do not want to go to the expense of
buying horses to draw II family coach,
which has been rcposiTs for so many
years mt the furthcst end OF the garage
forgotten.
