All the machinery of the government and the energies of English political and social life have lor months been directed to wards perfecting arrangements for this unique event, which promises to lie the most splendid coronation in the history of the United Kingdom. Thursday seems to have been a popular day for crownings. June 26 is the anniversary of the day on which Oliver Cromwell was installed as lord protector in Westminster Lull. It is also notable that the fol lowing English monarchs have been crowned on a Thursdays Stephen, John, Richard IT.. William and Mary, Queen Anne. George IV., William IV., and Queen Victoria. That is a fair collection of lucky and unlucky mon archs, which makes it difficult for any superstitious person to gather omens for the day chosen. Edward VII., the chief figure in the grand event, was born November 9, IMI, and succeeded his mother Janu ary 1901. He was married to I'rincess Alexandra of Denmark March 10, 1 so.'i. Their oldest living son, George Frederick, prince of Wales, was born in lhG5, and mar ried I'rincess May of Teck in The other living children of th«» royal couple are Louise Victoria, duchess of l'ife; Maud, I'rincess Charles of Den mark, and I'rincess Victoria Alex andra. THE CORONATION SERVICE. Ollieial Form, nil A men <1 oil ami Ap proved by 111* Majesty. The form of the coronation service, as finally amended and approved by the kit.g, con-ists ol -0 distinct sections. The king and queen and their retinue will form in procession at .Buckingham palace. They will enter the great west doorot \\ est uiinster abbey, where they will be welcomed by the shouts of the king's scholars of Westminster school and by the anthem, "1 •was glad when they said unto me, We will goto the house ot the Lord." Instead of going direct to their thrones the royal pair will kneel in private prayer on footstools in front ol their chairs. Then the archbishop ot Canterbury, the lord liigh chancellor, the lord great chamberlain and the Garter King of Arms, each in turn, will formallj present the king, the lords carrying the regalia will step up and the <ltan of Westminster will place the regalia on tile altar. The abbreviated litany and part of the Communion service will follow. Then tlie archbishop will recite the Xi cene creed and the bishop of London will preach a short sermon. .Inst before the sermon the king, who up to that stags of the ceremony will have been uncovered, will put on a cap of crimson vel vet trimmed with ermine. Then comes the oath-taking, after which the king will be anointed. Then the king's cap and crimson robe will he removed and four Garter knights will hold over him a rich pall of silk or cloth-of g"ld, tiie dean of Westminster will pour holy oil into a spoon and the archbishop of Canterbury will anoint the king, making the sign of the cross on the top of his maj esty's head, thus consecrating him "King over this people, whom the Lord your God hath given you to rule and govern." The king will then kneel and the dean of Westminster will invest him with the •uper tunica. HER MAJESTY, ALEXANDRA, QUEEN OF GREAT BRITAIN. Next will come the ceremonies which Caused so much discussion, including the presentation of the sword of state, the standards and the spurs, and then the orb will be ilisted in the king's right hand, he will again be divested of the crimson robe ond will be enveloped in a purple robe of Mate, and the archbishop of Canterbury will give the scepter to the king, while the lord ol the manor of Worksop supports the king's right hand and a ring is placed on his maj esty's fourth finger. The orb is a golden ball, six inches in diameter and II inches high, including the cross, which surmounts the orb. Diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires and pearls are set in the orb; also, a fine amethyst, which forms the pedestal of the cross. When the crown is finally placed upon the monarch's head, instantly all that great crowd of peers and peeresses put on their glittering coro nets. urn! the abbey rings with "Uod eave King!" According to official rules, in theory, the coronets of the nobility are never worn ex cept at the coronation of a sovereign, whet they are put on at the precise moment when the primate of England places the crown upon the brow of the king. Upon occasions of state the coronet is carried before the personage on a cushion, and at the funeral it is placed on the cottin, or borne on a pur ple cushion. The shouts of God save the King" are caught up by the crowd outside, church bells ring and cannon are fired, not only in London, but in all chief towns. After a Bible is given to the king a solemn te dcum is chanted, and enthronement follows or homage. The king is conducted to a throne in the center of the abbey, and there re ceives the act of homage, tirst from the lords spiritual, who kneel about him, pronounce the words of homage and kiss his hand. KING EDWARD VII. IN HIS CORONATION ROBE. BRITISH ROYAL CROWN. Princes of tiie blood royal ascend the step 9 of the throne, take (iff their coronets, re peat the homage, touch the crown upon the king's head, and kiss his left check. The peers of the realm follow suit, with the ex ception that they kiss the hand instead of the cheek. The words of homage are: "I do become your liege-man of life and limb, and of earthly worship, and faith and truth I will bear unto you :.o live and die against all manner of folk, so help me, God." \\ hen the act of homage is over, the mem berg of the house of Commons give nine hearty cheers, with cries of "Uod save the King," repeated by all. During homage medals are thrown to the occupants of the choir and lower galleries. Divested of all symbols of sovereignty, the king receives the holy sacrament, and the "Ilallelujaii chorus concludes the service. After this ceremony the queen will be crowned. .She will be anointed on the head, four peer holding a magnificent pail CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1902. over her, the king will put a ring on her finger, the archbi.-hop of York will place the crown on her head and the scepter and ivory rod and dove will be placed in her hands. Prayers will he offered, the peeresses will put on their coronets and the service will end with the communion. The crown for Queen Alexandra was made for the Queen of William 111. It is set with pearls, sapphires, diamonds and other pre cious stones. The scepter for a queen con sort is very like the king's, only not so large; the rod for the queen is of ivory sur- Tnounted by a dove and a cross. It is said that Queen Alexandra would prefer to be crowned according to Russian custom, by the king's own hands after his coronation, but she realizes that the innovation might not be pleasing to English ideas. PLEASING TO THE PEOPLE, I nt'Mcnl JII OremonieN Which Will llcliKlit tin* (iaitinf; Crowd*. Apart from the coronation itself what, so far, has afforded the greatest possible satis faction to the 5,(100,(tOO inhabitants of Lon don is that the king and queen, and with them the rest of the royal family and scores of foreign princes and potentates, will come among tiiein, will not be content with simply riding from palace to abbey and back again, but will pass instate through the principal arteries and some of the mean streets of the metropolis, in order that their subjects may see them and cheer them. It will be the most memorable 14-mile drive ever undertaken by royalty, Queen Victoria did something of tlie kind on the occasion of the diamond jubilee in 1897, but gnat as this undoubtedly was, it will be ex celled by the royal pageant to be carried out June 26. The reception of the king and queen by t he lord mayor will be suggestive of medieval times. It is one of the ancient privileges of the city ol London to bar, if need be, even the progress of a king into its wealthy do main. Therefore, when the king and queen ride instate along the Strand and reach the law courts, a quaint little ceremony will be gone through with stately solemnity ere the royal cavalcade proceeds on its way. At the spot where old Temple Bar used to stand, but where now an inartistic monu ment nicknamed "The Griffin" occupies the center of the narrow roadway, the lord mayor, with his mace bearer, his sword bearer, and all the retinue of the Mansion house, will await the coining of royalty. It may be that, Kith proper regard for effect, a replica of the ancient gates of the city will shut off Fleet street from the .Strand in much the same way as was done with such striking effect when the late queen made her triumphal entry into Dublin a year be fore her death. Whether this be so or not, there will be a demand as to who comes there on behalf of the representatives of Gog and Magog, and when it is made known that it is their majesties, then the lord mayor will ride bareheaded into the royal presence, and as evidence of loyalty will hand to bis majesty the keys of the city. These, indue course, will be handed back, and the lord mayor will then lead the way down Fleet street, past St. Paul's as far as the Mansion house, where doubtless he will take leave of the royal party. Another interesting ceremony will be the cutting of the tirst sod for the Queen Vic toria memorial to be erected immediately in front of Buckingham palace. This will be done by King Edward in the presence of his illustrious guests gathered from all parts of the world. The happy idea of beginning this great national undertaking at the time of the coronation originated with his majesty, who rightly considers that the presence in London of so many foreign royalties and diplomatic personages is an opportunity that the nations of the world will gladly seize to pay a tribute to the memory of Queen Victoria. AMERICA TO THE I'IIOXT, To lit* It r pretcn t t*«l at the Coronation L»y n Speeinl KIIIIIIINM>-. The coronation will be witnessed by rep resentatives from every known country in the world, including all the provinces and dependencies of the British crown.

He and a number of his friends were wont to resort ' every evening to the smoking-room of the hotel which they used as a sort of club and their wants were attended to by a fair wait . ress who inav be called Miss White. She was a nice, quiet girl, without any nonsense about her and attended to the wants of her patrons with regularity and promptitude, relates the ('hicago Chronicle. One evening alter she had retired for the night the landlord informed the company that this was the last night she would wait upon them, as she was going to be married next day. When the landlord had gone out Jiininie Hughes, the young man referred to, got up and said he thought it only right 1 that they should show their appreciation of her services by making her a little present on this auspicious occasion. He took a sheet of p-iper, wrote his name down for S2OO and passed it round. T'he girl was popular and the idea caught on and when it came round ■ gain to generous Jimtnie the total amount ed to something over $2,000.

"I don't think that's quite right," she faltered. "Let's look in the dictionary.'' The dictionary was an old edition and didn't contain the word.
