LONDQN. Aug. f. Edward VII. R. 1.
J by the grace of God. of .. the . United.
Kingdom of Great Britain, and Ireland,
an l the British Dominion beyond the
' F.;a., King, : Defender of the Faith,
i:rnp-ror of India wu today crowned.
i.nl tonight London is celebrating the
event for which the. world has waited
as, per haps;: it neverawalted any other
coronation. ,,. ,;--:.v . " ,' ,..!
In all respects the celebration was
is
Impressive and it was carried out with
perfection of detail and lack of acci
dents, that has rarely characterized
similar displays.
Ear! Roberts, Commander-in-Chief of
the forces; was once more the hero of
the hour and, next to the lngl him
self, received the heartiest welcome of
' the assembled crowds,' and at various
' points alone the route of the procession,
Lord Kitchener received a thunderous
ovation. " , , '!'-'
But, It was for the King and Queen
themselves that the people really let
themselves loose. Whenever and
wherever Their Majesties were seen,
cheers were loud and long afid espe
cially was thls'on the return Journey
of the King ami Queen to Buckingham
Palace. : . ;' ' ' ' ' ' ':,- '. ' ;''''
Until the booming of . the '-guns an
nounced ;that the crowning of King
Edward and Queen Alexandra had
been achieved, there lingered In thous
ands of minds apprehensions that, even
at the -last moment some untoward
event might once more plunge the na
tion Into consternation. When this
was passed the unrestrained Jubilation
wai a much a Uk)Ute to the King's
personal popularity a It was an evi
dence of relief from the tension of the
last few weeks." While the scenes In the
street;, were robbed of many element
that Usually accompany the great pa
gcant, they will Ton jr be remi?mberedjy
those who stood on the standsyat win
dovye'and on the sidewalks, to see King
Ed ward after he had won almost from
the Jaws of death his crown. ' ' '
In Westminster Abbey the scene was
; nothing less than marvelous.. Nearly
7.000 members of the nobility, clergy
and gentry had gathered With the for
e'Kn "princes, " ambassadors, ! colonial
- rulers. Indian potentates and leaders
from . the furthest corners qf he globe
to do honor to the King. 'Two incidents
In the service In the Abbey will live In
the memory of all who witnessed them,1
The first of these centered around the
, ased ArcbbUh4iof Canterbury. jJTrom
the commencement of the service the
Archbishop had the greatest difficulty
in reading or remembering the prayers,'
and when he came to place the crown
on Edward head. It was - discovered
that he had the crown back to the
front. , A few minutes later- cams tfce
climat to his " fceblenessT lie ' was
knot -Mng to tfo fW firsr homage f all

ly he almost fainted and would have
fallen Slpon" the- Sovereign knee.f had
not- King Edward tenderly " grasped'
tothLof the prelate's hands and lifted
hirn to. his feet. -;- .'. . . . - .
The tremor, which this event- caused
hail scarcely subsided, when another
fxriulsltely.human touih -varied: the
trocft dings, and the King was forgot

meant by shooting at .Tracy. Arriv
