OF CORONATION
Gorgeous Robes and Priceless Jewels
Of King and Queen. Other News
of British Empire.

London, June 16.-Next Thursday
King George and Queen Mary are to
be crowned as the actual heads OF
Great Britain. and India and the Isles
of the Sea. Much interest centers
about the crown which George will
wear, for there are different crowns
for every king. The imperial. to be
worn by King George, was used also
for his fathers coronation and for his
grandmother's, Queen Victoria. 1t has
been remodeled for the present king
and its magnificent jewels have just
been increased by the addition of the
Lesser Star of Africa which is the
smaller of the two Cullinan diamonds,
weighing 300 carats. When this crown
is placed on the head Of King
George by the archbishop of Canter-
bury the real coronation will have TAX
en- place.
The preliminaries to this part of the
ceremony are many For the occasion
the king will wear special vestments.
A close-fitting red coat will be worn
over specially prepared white silk
shirt, each of which has been made
with an opening at the breast for the
purpose of amounting Silk breaches
and stockings, silver buckled slippers,
the velvet cap of state and the Grim
son parliament robe will complete the
kings costume as he enters the choir
of Westminster Abbey for the cere-
mony. The parts of the regalia used
for the amounting are the ampulla and
rhe spoon. Seated on the historic
Stone of Scone in the chair known as
St Edwards, King George will be
touched with pure olive oil on the
head, breast and hands as significant
of glory, knowledge and strength. All
of this will, of course, be accompanied
by a most elaborate musical service.
The elimination of the whole cere-,
mony will be when King George as
cends the throne and receives the
homage of the peers, now mere for
mality, but once vital part of the
ceremony. The archbishop will first
take the oath of hamoge, followed
by the Prince of Wales and the princes
of royal blood individually. Other
peers will perform their homage by
orders.
When Queen Mary has been crowned
and their majesties have received the
sacrament, the two sovereigns will
pass out of Westminster Abbey wear
ing their crowns-the king with his
orb in his left hand and the royal
sceptre, containing the 516-carat Star
of Africa" in his right. Later the re-
gala will be taken from Buckingham
palace and Westminster Abbey by yeo-
men of the kings bodyguard back to
the Tower of London, and there the
most of the regalia will remain until
the coronation of another king, to be
viewed by admiring British subjects
and American tourists.

PARADISE FOR THE CURLER
Scotchmen Flock to Van CortIandt
Park, New York, Where They
Have Exclusive Clubhouse.

Scotchmen who still keep alive In
this vicinity the ancient sport Of curl
ing have finally received recognition
from the park officials and have had
clubhouse built for their exclusive
use at Van Courtlandt Park. The
Scots were happy enough when a lake
was made on which they might curl
without the interference Of skaters,
who cut up the Ice so that the
''stanes" would not run true, but now
that they have little house where
there are lockers In which to keep
brooms and other appurtenances of
the sport there have been some lively
days
The curriers' come to Van Cortlandt
from all over Greater New York,
Yonkers and several towns in New
Jersey, and rich and poor alike in
dulge in the Scotch national gam ;.
Practically every "stane" in use at
Van Cortlandt was quarried at the his.
tor1c island Of Ailsa Craig in Scotland.
The Scots feel that there are some

makes il far superior to anything of
