will be witnessed rare spectacle of
court mobiles and priests in the ancient,
picturesque ceremonial robes. The for
eign representatives will be ushered to
their seats by the sound of flutes and
drums. The doors of the sanctuary
where the sacred mirror is placed will
be opened and offerings spread before
the altar. Then the emperor, preced-
ed by the lord chamberlain and minis
ter Of the household carrying the sword
and gem, will enter, followed by the
princes of the blood, ministers of state
and the members of the coronation
the emperor will go to the altar and
read an address proclaiming to the
spirits of his ancestors that he has re-
ceived the sacred treasures and that
he then and there ascends the throne,

and the Suki, dedicated to the deities
Of earth. In these sacred precincts the
emperor, alone and unseen, will eat
of the sacred rice, sown, tended and
harvested by virgins in the eastern and
western provinces. In each case the
emperor will battle in sacred wAter,
after which, donning special robes, he
will pray successfully before the heav-
enly and earthly deities, offering up
thanks for his glorious and happy &C.

Tokyo.-For the first time in the his
tory of the japanese empire, extending
over $500 years, an emperor is to &C.
cede to the throne in the presence of
representatives of his people. That is
why the coronation Of Emperor Yoshi-
hito on Nov. 10 is regarded as a SUI

and why it is looked forward to with
such eagerness and delight by the en-
perors subjects.
Strictly speaking, the ceremony is
not a coronation, but an accession.
The rulers Of Nippon wear no crown,
but in the presence of the spirits off
their ancestors they formally accede to
the dignity and prerogatives of en-
perorship. However, the coming great
event is usually referred to as the
coronation.
The empress expects to become a
mother about that time. The emperor
doubtless will go alone to Kioto with
great pomp, carrying with him in a
specially constructed train Of exquisite
