IGGER issues than that of providing for opening th free bath at Coney are before the Aldermen this week, but there is none more timely nor more de- serving of immediate action. The amount of money involved is not large, but ¢o many persons the amount of pleasure and of healthful benef? resulting from the opening of the bath would be beyond computation. By a short-sighted neglect of public interests former generation of New Yorkers permitted nearly all the sea frontage in the neighbor hood of the city to pass under private control. Their excuse lies in, the fact that they could not foresee the growth of the city and the coming pressure of population. No euch excuse can be pleaded for | the authorities in whose hands rest the issues of to-day. The peop:c| need a free park and a free bathing establishment at Coney Island now and will need them more and more, and on enlarging ecales, as | the years pase. The city fathers should not permit the week to go by without) taking some steps toward realizing the expectations of the public in this regard. a HONOR AT EL PASO. OOSEVELT and other opponents of the policy of | arbitrating international issues involving national | honor have in the present controversy over the boundary line at El Paso a timely opportunity to! press their point and shout for war. So patly does the case fit their argument, it must seem to them like a special providence. Consider the facts. It is a question of boundary, therefore one of national in- tegrity. Arbitration has been tried, but the arbitrators concede thoy cannot decide where the line was originally drawn. Therefore fur- ther arbitration must invol¥e the possibility of surrendering part of our sacred 6 And that would be dishonor. Furthermore, the eame special providence that arranged this timely proof of the folly of arbitration has eo ordained things that we should have an army camped on the Mexican border ready to act, and also a Roosevelt out of a job. Thus we have the issue, the readiness and the man. Whet more could an opponent of arbitration ask? pe EN MISSES on tetas eae THE BUILDING CODE. EMBERS of the Executive Committee of the Al- lied Concrete Interests have asked the Mayor to help them get fair play in the revision of the building code. They allege that certain clauses of the code are being framed in the interest of a special corporation, and state that representatives of that interest “have even gone so far as to sxe persons connected with the allied concrete interests and to maxe propositions for compromise with them.” $ Here are all the elements of a first class ecandal, whose official investigation and effective prevention offer opportunity for a genuine public service. The story itself is an old one. We have heard it before about building materials of many kinds and about etreet work material also. It has been told of other cities than New York. It appears, indeed, to be a story of frequent repetitions and many applications. Is there no way that an American city can devise a building code fair to all honest industries? We have associations to aid in every kind of endeavor from the tender care of abandoned cata to the preservation of peace among nations—is there nane can help the Mayor out on this? ———+4-—____ THE SILVER WEDDING. ITH President and Mrs. Taft, in the joy of the silver anniversary of their wedding, there will be 4 general congratulation. The Taft smile will be common, shared by all alike, and a certain holiday spirit will be felt by the millions that read of the grand reception on the lawn of the White House. Observance of the day will be marked by no elaborate ceremonial of official etiquette. Republican simplicity of dress and manner will contrast with the pomp and pageantry that are being prepared for the King and the Queen in London. But in heart- iness of love and loyalty and truo friendship the offerings of the coronation will not exceed those that will go to-day to the President of the Republic and the gracious lady who holds the first place in the land. ‘The big heart of the world that loves a lover, loves also the hus- band and wife who, after twenty-five years of wedded life, are still lovers. It loves also the happy and the fortunate whose happiness and fortune are due largely to a faithful service for the publie good. So, in addition to the respect due to the high places they hold, there ie a large personal tribute in the congratulations that will be show- ered on the illustrious pair, They have merited all the honors they enjoy. The best wishes of the people are with them. : The Police Query, fresh for an indefinite time I herewith othe Editor of The Evening Worl send a method which I have tested: Pure In reference to “A Police Query," |water that has been boiled asking if 4 policeman at home, off duty, and then cooled should be used.

The procession of functionaries enters the nave of Westminster Abbey by the west door, usually in the following order: The high clergy and household officers; then standard-bearere, &c., followed by the Queen's regalia (whose crown includes the famous Kohinoor diamond). Next comes the Queen herself, attended by clergy and by “gentlemen-atarms,” maids of honor, ladies-in-waiting, &c. The King’s regalia is next borne in, followed by the King, high prel- ates of the Church, noblemen, household officers, &o., while a company of ‘The King and Queen mount a platform, known as the “theatre.” (in offen they first kneel and are then seated, and the services be- which the coronation oath is taken. In this long and wordy oath the King pledges himself to govern a¢conding to the people's will, as represented by Parltament; to deal justice and merey, to uphold t! tablished religion, &o, He is then anointed and is clad in the royal priestly robes. A sword is girt about him. Drawing this, he offers ft apon tho altar, The weapon is then solemnly “redeemed” from the Church for $3.

He leaves the coronation chase (eon- taining the sacred Stone of Scone), and mounts his throne, while the Prince of ‘Wales, the peers and the Church dignitaries fie up, in order of rank, to do him homage and to pledge themselves to his service. Next comes the lese lengthy and less important crowning of the Queen. As the crown ts placed on her head, the peeresses put on their coronets. The newly crowned Queen bows reverently to her husband and seats herself on @ throne at his side. Then they both cross to the eltar and kneel there for prayer and to recelve the Sacrament. The procession forms again and leaves the abbey. When award VII. was crowned the olf Archbishop put the crown on ¢he monarch’s head at a wrong angle. It was the climax al dDlunders.

These are but a few of the many “bad breaks” that mar every coronation, and that no number of careful rehearsals seem able to smooth away. George I. at the time of hs coronation could not speak English. ‘The Church dignitaries knew Mttle or no German. Many mistakes resulted. One of the costilest coronations in English history was that of George IV. George had for years been regent, during the incurable insanity of his father, George III. He almost despaired of living long enough to become king. When at last he came to the throne he resolved to spare no expe! He had @ creving to spend money (even, which often happened, when he did not have {t to spend.) His coronation cost $1,200,000, But his successor, William IV., who wae as frugal as George was extravagant, was crowned at an expense of only $180,000. Queen Victoria's coronation cost $360,000. ‘As has been aaid, the moment a king dies hts heir at once becomes sovereign tn his place.
