Interest in the abbey centered about the appearance of the king. When he drove through th citr Wednesday it was inrpo'sible to judge how he had emerges! from his illness. Now that the king had really appeared in public for the fim time since he was stricken down, as the royal procession entered the abh?y opera glases were leveled at his oajesty despite the rigidity of court etiruiett which forbids any one staring at his angwst persons i The Tnorain7"opend with brilliant sun shine, but later the sky was overcast. No rain, however, fell; and a chilly jrese . which was blowing made the conditions for the densely packed crowds more conrfcrtable. Ambulances were little required. Close ?rntiny of the king after ha left Bnckirgham palace promptly at 11 o'clock did not bear out the favorably impression of the king's physical condi tion given ly the first glimp of his majesty. His nsnal rr.idy appearance wn missing, his face showing very little color. His majesty walked erect and withont assitnce. but his pace was very sI.tw. The kpg crimson robes he wore efTecrnally concealed his person, making it impossible t say whether he hid lost his weight. " Altogether his ap pearance j? somewhat disappointing and did not substantiate the doctors as-rt:ons that hs was practically well. There was a slight hitch in the king's procesin. Everybody had appeared ex cept his majesty's immediate entourage. The ioIr began its -chant of welcome and when this was ended it gave a loud cry of greeting resembling nothing so much as an American college yell, but the king had not yet appeared. The choir stopped short and the nshers went down the aisle, but still no king, r nuy three minntes passed during which the abbey was beginning to fear that some thing had happened. Finally, however, the king arrived. At ll:2fl o'clock the choir began their chant again and the king "emerjred from the dressing room and proceeded up the ai. - - Half an hour. before the. king and qnen get to the abbey the members of foreign roynlty appeared. Th? women were all dressel in white, bnt with vari-eo!ored trains yards long. Some of icesc trains err - or niuisun. wmr 'i purple, or -yell owv bine or pink. The trains were all bonre by peeresses, them selves having trains Just as long, which swept up the aisle nngnarded. Prince and Princess Henry of Prnssie were the last to arrlv. The princes was dressed in white with a most gorgons train of some material which glistened like pol ished silver. A fter the foreign royalties the Prince and Princess, of Wales entered, and then came th? kinz's procession. . Queen Alexandra wore a gown of yellow satin with a lor-g pnrple train embossed with gold crowns. She wore magnificent dia mond ornaments. As the ceremony continued the king becan to show some igns of fatigue, wb-n he was reonired to rise to be enthroned. As often as he rose he seemed to have some difficulty in getting to his feet. Toward the end of the ceremony the abbey became- hot and stuffy and the oppressive beat evidently troubled his majesty somewhat. Despite these signs that his convalescence is not yet ndd. Edward bore hrnWIf with great dignity and in troe kingly man ner, in answering me otun quePTitmR. the king's voice was distinctly heard throughout the abbey. people foe his Alness, and nothing con Id have exceeded the loyalty of their greet ing. Th queen, too, was boiled mot bo much as the. second figure ralthe cere mony, but 89 the1 wife and nurse who had kept farthral vigil so many weeks. The crowd began to gather about 4 o'clock this morning, many men baring elept in the parks to be on hmd early. By 6 o'clock carriages were rolling in black etreaas toward the nTofoey. By 0 o'clock tha last guest had entered the abbey, the rtands m the street were filled and all waited patiently the oom hrg of "the king. . The expectant crowd had been rwalt tug for hours before there wae any spe cial sign of lKe within the yard of linckingham jalace. Not imtSl 9:30 were the coaches with their ouiriders and es cort seen rooTtng into che carrioige road which led from the royal etafbles. One by one they passed untfer the porttoo cfcere of the palace and received their occupants. This took a long ttoie, as nearly all were either memibera o "the EnUsh house or visiting royalties Und had to be handled with, a deal of -ceremony. At 10.45 the 'Prince and Princess of Wales, accoTTHpairrcd by two carriage loads of attendants, and preceded and followed by jlngting cavalrymen, started for the albey. . Last of xrll the royal golden coach with a Hon and unicorn on top, hold hug a crown, drove xrp to receive the king and queen'. Hitherto every thing hatz been Oone ia comparative si leuce, but a the royal complex emerged from the palace doors, trumpeters, who had bean standing oi either side, gave a ringing blast and the crowds knew that the leading "figures of tne pageant were in their places. It was now 11 o'clock and the proces sion moved slowly out of the palace gate into the mall. In Westminster Atbey the doors of that edifice were scarcely opened and the gold sticks and ushfrs had barely found their stations befc-e the seats began to fill. Peers and peeresses swept np the nave, their scarlet and ermine making vivid contrasts with the deep blue of the carpet, j As . they arrived 'before the thrones rhey separated, the" peers going to the right a,nd the peeresses to the left. The -various chairs to be used by the king and queen In the service at tracted special attention bnt what in evitably caught the eye was the -sEtter- kig array of gold plate, brought from various royal depositories, ranged along the chancel and behind the altar. Amidst these surroundings the earl marshal, the Lhike of Norfolk, resplendent In white knee breeches and heavily emforoidered coat, hurried to and fro directing the final touches. During the, long wait, Edwin A. Ab bey, the American artist who was com massaoned to parat the coronation scene in the atebey, and who wore court uni form, took careful note of the surround ings for tho historic picture ordered by the king. The peeresses took advantage of the loog interval to .stroll up and down, but the peers sat awaiting th ar rival of the sovereign, their ermine caps presenting a solid masa of white. bey held in their hands. The adminis tration of the oath followed. Standing before the king's chair, the archbishop asked: "Sir, is your majesty willing to take the oath?" - The king answered sin firm, strong tones: r "I am willing,' etc., his replies being easily bear high up in the triforium near the roof. Thn the Inkstand was brought and the king signed the oath. He did not advance to the altar, but sat in the chair 'ha had occupied -since the service began. - While the choir sang "Uome.Hoiy tJbost, our souls insnire." the kin remained seated and the queen stood up. - - After- the archbishop's aaMMntLng prayer a gold canopy was, brought over the king's chair, and his majesty di vested himself of his outer robe and then walked to sthe ancient chair while the choir ang Zadok's anthem. - The annotating ceremony was soaicely seen, owing to the canopy. The spectators were just alble to discern the Aroh.bish.op of Canterbury's motions. . , After the prayer the king donned the coWbinm slndonts, then resumed his seat, and from a. scarlet silken roll on which the Travers were printed in larere tvne and which . was held by the Dean of Westminster, the Archbishop of Can terbury read the prayers and 1 delivered the aword to the king, who did not go to the altar, the .sword being taken to him by . the Dean of. Westminster while hrs majesty remained standing. The armilla and the orb 1 were then delivered to the king, according to the programme. When the king held out his hand for the ring the Archbishop of Canterbury had difficulty in. finding it, bnt finaJlyv- with, trembling hands, he plaeed it on the tip of his majesty's finger, readiirg tbeprayer simultaneously, the king himself completing the process of- putting on the ring as h withdrew his hand.

Speedal.-The culture of Sumatra tobacco In Ncn-th Carolina, the growth .of 'which has yielded net profits of one thousand an acre in other states, " was discussed this morn ing by Representative Blackburn with Professor Whitney of the department of apiculture. It was Che desire of the NoBth Carolina congressman to begin thsee tests with the. growth of Cuban and - Sumatra tobaccos in his district. He bad heard of the efforts, of the de partment of agriculture in experimenting with the grewth of these fine tobaccos in the states of Connecticut, Pennsylva nia and Ohio, where most remarkable success has been obtained. Mr. Black burn told Professor Whitney that bis district was possibly the finst tobacco producing section in the south and he expressed the hope that experts could' id senttaere ror the! -.purpose or in structing xarmers nowt grow tais extra quality of tobacco. Professor Whitney's answer was very favorable, but he is handieanDed in his tobacco culture experiments by pm son of the fact that congress failed at the last session to make ample provision for this work. j , J - The experiments in the culture of Su matra tobacco were first begun dn Con necticut, then in Ohio and Pennsylvania."
