Just three months from today London will be In the dizzy whirl of tho coronation fetes, Three months Is a short time in which to complete tho arrange ments for tho great ceremony and those upon whose shoulders rests the responsibility have taken their coats off and are working ceaselessly at their gigantic task of preparation. The coronation is the one topic of conver sation among all classes. In tho clubs and drawing rooms the smart set dis cuss the approaching ceremony and in the public houses the workingmen discuss over their ale the details of the arrangements with which the press is filled. The periodical litera ture covering the time of Queen Vic toria's coronation Is In great demand by persons who desire to inform themselves of the etiquette and cere monials of the occasion., King Ed ward himself " has read and re-read the accounts of his mother's corona tion and doubtless has obtained there from many valuable "pointers." For instance, m selecting tno design ana quality of his coronation robes, the King doubtless kept in mind the ac count of' the late Lord Salisbury, one of the royal train-bearers, who declar ed that the weight of the robes gave them all "a Turkish bath of some hnnrs rlnrntion." The same inconvenience ana uis- r-ntnfnrt frnm the wcicht-of the robes was encountered by George IV., at his coronation. The king, It is said, nore the Infliction with all the dignity of which he was capable but as soon as tho elaborate ceremony was con cluded his majesty retired to nis dressing room In the Abbey, and, casting off all Incumbrances, walked "up and down In a state of nudity," but still wearing the crown upon his head a state of barbaric splendor strangely at variance. Avith the familiar aspect of the tailor-made "first gentle man of Europe." "nefore deciding to have an entirely new crown with eight jewelled arches nuri tht Kniiinonr. which is exnectea to make more impression on the great Indian princes than an tne rest oi me coronation display, Queen Alexandra Ik said to have examined at least 30 or 40 different designs specially prepared for her inspection. Her majesty his given quite as much at tention to the selection of her coro nation robes, the details affording a wide field of choice, Which was en larged by the freedom to determine upon purple or crimson, as taste might dictate.

Nebraskan Thought to Ee Willing the Tax Reformer Shall Bear the Stand ard In the 1904 Campaign. Portland, March 25. The Evening Telegram has this special from "Wash ington: A smart revival of gossip about the future. of the democratic party is tak ing place since the visit to the nation al capital of William Jennings Bryan. It is worth noting that the man 'who has twice been tho nominee of his party for president is still able to p.nmmnnd attention of many of the most Influential men in the party. His advice on important questions was sought during his stay here, and he was ready as ever to volunteer sug gestions. He left the Impression with his ad mirers here that he does not hone to be the" nominee of his party again in 1904, but he does expect to have some thing to say when the time comes to pick out a standard-bearer. One piece of gossip afloat since he left the city is that he said the nominee must come from the Middle West. So far as can be learned, he did not men tion any names, but it is regarded as significant that soon after his depar ture Ohio democrats here began to mention Tom L. Johnson, mayor of Cleveland, as the most available man looming up on tho horizon. An Ohio an is authority for tlfe statement that Johnson is at this time a full-Hedged candidate for the democratic nomina tion, and he declares .that there is an nnderstandine between Johnson and .Bryan, leaving the impression that the Cleveland mayor Is the choice oi uvy an for president. Johnson, it is said, is anxious to keep his presidential boom in the background until he has made a race for governor of his state. Just now he is busy laying wires to catch the nomination for governor. His Btate campaign, it is said, is to be waged on a platform demanding more equitable taxation in his state. His agents are seeking information in every county in Ohio, and when he gets the figures before him he proposes to attempt to show that the great corporations are not bearing their proportionate share of the burdens of taxation. "He believes he can be elected gov ernor," said an Ohio man, "and if he is successful every effort to secure the nomination for president will be made. His plans are well understood by Mr. Bryan and his friends, and meet their approval." Will Attempt to Handle the Anthra cite Coal Region Strike Problem Hanna Will Preside. New York, March 25.
