KITTS All who attended the crowning of Edward VII. agreed that yesterday’s ceremony surpassed that spectacle in every circumstance of stately stage setting, of solemn ritual, inspiring ' usic, the host of royal and eminent ‘personages, the wonderful display of rich uniforms, bright gowns, marvel- gous jewels, which combined to create an impression of awe and admiration. 'Their Majesties, with gleaming crowns on their heads and gorgeous robes outspread behind them, the great Cul- Vinan diamond flashing from the im- perial crown, all the nobles of the throne in quaint costumes of ancient offices, with a. few modern uniforms, the four peeresses attending the Queen in shimmering gowns, pages in ‘light blue and white grouped behind ‘them, an array oi C;'.Lll‘cll clzgnitaries robed in scarlet 'and gold formed the centre of the picture.

Just above the altar, loaded with massive gold plate, to the right of the King. was the girlish Princess Mary, wear- ing the corouet of a peerees, with hair hanging down 'her shoulders, and the three younger princes in Scottish kilts. Near them were the other mem- bers of the royal family. Yeoman of the guard with halberds lined the aisles throughout the space of the ab- bow. and .in the 1393.1: harm risina It was a proud day for the. British Empire, but of all 1ts millions, the one Who, perhaps, had the most rea- son to be proud, was denied by court etiquette the joy of witnessing the triumphal event. At Sandringham Pal- ace, Queen Mother Alexandra, who 46 years ago this month, gave Britain a King. awaited the news that her son had taken his place in the long line of British monarchs. and men of all houses, races and countries from the four quarters of the globe. The great ceremonial passed off unmarred by any untoward accident. When dawn broke the skies were heavy and showers fell during the progress of the processions of the royal guests, and the junior mem- bers of the royal family to the abbey. but as the King and Queen left Buck- ingham Palace to be crowned, the heavens smiled and a. flood of sun- shine brightened the splendid page- and . Acclaims Greet King. The tumult of thunderous welcome was almost deafem'ng as the King and Queen passed on the outward and homeward journeys, proceeded in the first instance and followed on the return by a stately, superb caval- cade of eminent princes, many them- selves heirs to tux-ones; statesmen. diplomats, courtiers, soldiers, sailors a. score of thousands. Trafalgar Square was so densely packed With humanity that it would not have been ditficult to traverse the square walking on the heads of the people. Parliament Square, Club Land and Constitutional mil held their count- less hordes. [round of bravely decorated viewing stands and windows and roofs, all of which were crammed to their capac- ity. Hundreds of thousands of specta- tors shouted themselves hoarse at central points, like the Mall, and the entrance to the admiralty archway. where the Government stands held Children Cry FOR ancHER's CASTORIA 0utside, the usuaily dull streets had been transformed into a mass of color. The King and Queen‘s pro» gress to the abbey and the return to Buckingham Palace was one unbroken ovation. The route was hedged with a vast polygot host, with a. back- -~ v-V garbed in reproductions of the fnulti- colored, gold-cmbroidermi trappings worn by their ancestors in bygone generations. The latter made up a wonderfully effective setting around tho central figures. HIS MAJESTY KING GEORGE. d1) ‘- . London.

Admiral Count Togo and General Count Nogi. the Japanese veterans, came in tne first open car- riage, a royal one, with ”scarlet. liver- ied coachman and footman. They were accompanied ‘by British at- taches. and being recognized, were given a hearty welcome, to which they gravely bowed, Then came a stream of royal carriages, bringing the King’s guests to see him crovf'ned. Apart from the processions. the sol- emnity and the paraphernalia of state, there was an undercurrent of human interest most appealing Queen Mary, although she bore her- self with regal stateliness during her crowning, was at first noticeably nerv- ous. While the King was being an- nointed and crowned she had her handkerchief to her eyes frequenly. The King, when he received the hom- age -of the heir, displayed a. father’s infection. The Archbishop of York’s sermon had as its text: “1 among you as he that serveth.” He said: All the ladies, apart from the peer- asses. were arrayed in court costumes. with white feathers in their hair. Many wore tires. There was a treas- ure of precious stones never before collected in one place, and costly en- ough to buy the ships of the British navy. The ladies-in-waiting to the Queen in the abbey were four duch- essa. each being attired to carry into effect a. color scheme of shot gold. One wore gold, shot grey, with pearls; another gold, shot blue and topaz jewels; a third, gold shot cerise, with rubies; a fourth. gold. shot green. and emerald ornaments. Princess Mary wore a short white frock and a long royal violet train suspended from the shoulders with gold cord tassels bor- dered with ermine and gold braid. Three-Hour Ceremony. The ceremony in the abbey consum- ed more than three hours. The state- ly ritual of the Established Church, combined with the coronation rites, ism-charged with the traditions of faded centuries. and Sir Walter Parratt’s im- pressive music, which continued throughout â€" now a soft accompani- ment, then the choir intom‘ng the service, then the majestic hymn, and, at the culminating points. the roll of drums and the blast of tmmpeusâ€"to make every moment one of intense interest.

EXCURSION T0 BEAVERTON SATURDAY When Mr. and Mrs. Bryan settle down in their town house in London. they will have as next door neighbor Lord Beresford. Across the street is the residence of Mme. Melba. Recently two Canadian boys led to the altar prominent English ladies. The story of how Mr. Hamar Green- wood met his bride during the earthâ€" quake at Jamaica has been told, but it is not generally known that the en- gagement of Mr. Claude Bryan of To- ronto to the niece of Lord Fumess grew out of a. casual acquaintance made on board ship while crossing the Atlantic. The future Mrs. Bryan has literary tastes and naturally the two found much in common. It was not surprising that the friendship last- ed and ripened. , The First Tea-Party. It is of interest to know that the first "tea-party” in England dates from the reign of Charles 11. Early in that reign, Henry Bennet Maitland, Earl of Lauderdale; a member of the Merrie Monarch’s notorious Cabal Ministry, and James Butler, the fifth Earl of Ossory, brought from Amster- dam a parcel of tea, which Celestial leaf had just been brought to Europe by a ship of the Dutch East India Co. In his town mansion, Arlington House, which stood in Buckingham Palace grounds, Lord Arlington gave the first tea-party in England. It was reported that the invited guests, great lords and ladies of the court, made one and all, wry faces when they sip- ped the novel beverage. Oliver Asselin in taking gup the sit- uation in Maine, declared that mat- ters were critical there for French. Canadians. A bips‘ho had closed a parochial school because the French was there taught, and a similar course had been taken in regard to a bi- lingual school. French-Canadians must needs resist such tactics, which were patiently designed to efiace their Armand Lavergne, M.P.P., opened with an attack upon the policy of im- migration now being pucsued. This wgs threatening to swamp French- Canadians. Mr. Justice Constantineau of On- tario drew a. contrast between condi- tions prevailing in this province and in the Province of Ontario. Here the minority lived in peace with the ma- jority, because justice was given all round. In Ontario, though the French- Canadian minority lived in peace, a species-oi armed peace it was.
