Is to take place On Wednesday Iuna Fist next year and already the ar arrangements are we'll in hand,
 From now until next July both the Lord Chamberlain and the Earl Mar shals departments, in fact, every of ficial of the Royal Household will he working at high pressure. The word has gone forth that nothing must ne wanting to make the event worthy of the Empire and of the historic great ness of the occasion.
 All the gorgeous trappings of state, the Royal and other Peaa15a which lends to the croWning of all English King so much stately snleD- dor, are now being examined and made ready. Already the coming event is casting it's glories before, and inmany unexpected quarters there is now hustle of activity which will not cease until next June.
 Already scores of rooms have been engaged at the big hotels, and hun dreds of passages have been booked on the great steamship routes from all parts of the world. The "rush,' from America which is growing in volume every succeeding year, a man. ager of One of the leading shipping lines, says will exceed anything yet seen. This information was corro borated at one of the big .Anglo-Am- erican hotels and by the manager of ope of the chief tourist agencies, who remarked: London will next year be the capital, not of the British En- pire only but of the world. From the universal inquiries We are receiv- ing I am convinced that there will IDe such a crowd as even London has never seen before.''
 The coronation will bring tn this country a considerable number of Royal personages from the courts of Europe, though, of course, no reign ing monarch ever attends a coroaa- ton.
 Changes in the Army.
 Great changes are impending in the British army, and military circles are wondering how many high army officers are going to lose their off cials heads for placing the English army in a ridiculous light during the recent military mannuevers. which were admittedly the worst ever wit messed in any European country. l Though the English newspapers had nothing but praise for officers and men, the foreign critics who were present were far less lenient and in German papers the statement has confusion was so complete that it | was really amusing, and certainly what happened would have been . amusing to the German army, for the British troops were firing at thcnl- selves at point Of blank range and no | ore seemed to know where they were, I, IT.: IT,: severest critic of the British army was the we'll known German colonel Gaeoke, whose report in Berlin paper must have made many l English officers furious, and military men here are now trying to prove that though his pen is very pointed he has never achieved anything bril- liant with his sword.
 Grave complaints are heard every where of the condit'o on of many oE the horses during the manoeuEHi'. Several of the cavalry regiments taA- ine part were greatly hampered through this cause, and had to take to the field only a shadow of tlelf real selves. If this sort of thing IS going to happen in week mimic warfare, people here a:se asking what will take place when the real thing comes along? No one Who IS brought into intimate contact W-'A Englisn mounted forces today can fail to notice the weedy and altogeth- CT inferior quality of the horses
 Before the South African WalOthe EnoIish cavalry was as we'll mounted as any in Europe, but th's is no long CT the ease, and the present craze economy at all costs is having an ei- feet upon t that is little short CT di-- astrous.
