The procession was practically in three
sections as far as St. Paul's, though the
two were consolidated es they moved into
Piccadilly. The first to take up position
was the colonial procession, formed 013 the
embankment, and moved via the Mall,
thence past the Palace, where her Majesty
viewed it from the window, over the
route to St. Paul's. The marsh began at
8.41 and the great cartage proved a wel-
come relief to the waiting multitude.
For the colonies were Bente pictures,
presenting in tnugible shape the growth
of the Empire, the far reaching extent
of the Queen's sway. The procession,
after some police, was headed by an
advance party of Royal 110x00 Guards.
Then followed the band of the same,
playing an inspiring march ; next came
Lord Frederick Roberts,commanding the
colonial troops, with Col. Ivor Herbert,
of the Grenadier Guards, second fn coni•

1112 QUEEN AT LAST
The Empire has passed le review, the
army and navy had been shown in its
panoplied strength, the head of it all was
now to come, Her Majesty. The Royal
procession proper was formed as regards
its military portion in front of the
Heights' Bridge Barracks, Hyde Park,
and marched round by Bslgrave Square
to the palace, where it took up position
at ten minutes to eleven, and was inter-
woven with the arowd of waiting digni•
taries of all sorts. When ready it moved
to join in the rear of the military proses.

The crowd now began to show more
eager interest in the approaching vehicles.
They' were nearer and neater to the
Queen. Five road landaus, painted lilts

by four horses, four with bays, and the
fifth with the Dutch blacks of the Royal

uniform's appeared, the whisper ran oleo•
triesttly, "She's (mining I" Tho Guards
were soon outmoded by the °score of the
British and foreign Princes. Mazy faces
were known, recognized and oheered.
This brilliant escort Wae composted of the
flower of Europe's thrones.
Following the Princes carne the Guard
of Honor, twenty.ttvo ofleere of naval
Indian cavalry corps, men of fine physi-
que, picturesque uniforms and strange
faces. But for these the crowd had few
eyes ; for the oommander•in-ebief, who
followed behind them, none. They could
see the Queen's horses—it was 111e Queen
at last.

A cheer broke forth that seemed to

Oreams, cream in color, with long toile,
white, cold, almost lish•like eyes end

with ribbons of royal blue, were now

harness of pomp and color and brightness,

of Elizabeth's time made in their pano-
ply. The liveries of the postillions were
in keeping with the harness, and had
cost 3 (100 apiece—the scarlet and gold
coats, white trousers and riding boots.
For once since the Prince Consort's death
the Queen permitted the mourning baud
to bo removed from the men's arms.
There was no note of sorrow.

"No. 1. plain posting landau," a carriage
with a light running body, built about a
quarter 0f a century ago, and of w11i011
lier Majesty is known to be very fond.
The body was dark claret, lined with
vermillion, the mouldings outlined with
beads of brass. Bross beads decorated
the rumble, the body loops and lamp
irons wereilt. The wheels and under.
works were vermillion, with heavy lines
of gold. Beside Her Majesty sat the
Princess of Wales, while the Princeas
Christian sat opposite Her Majesty. On
the left of Her Majesty rode H. R. H. the
Duke of Cambridge. On the right H.
R. II. the Prince of Wales, who was fol-
lowed by the Duke of Connaught, the
