TRONDHJEM CATHEDRAL
WHERE HAAKON VII WAS TODAY CROWNED KING OF NORWAY.
Here is a Brief History of King Haakon
and Queen Maud, Rulers of Norway
With the accession of King Haakon VII to the throne, Norway beglna
a new epoch of her history, a return, after hundreds of years, to the con
dition of a separate kingdom. On June 7 of last year Norway declared Ua
Independence and In October the parliaments of Sweden and Norway rat
ified a treaty providing for the peaceful separation of the kingdoms. Prince
Charles of Denmark was asked tq become a candidate for the throne of
Norway. On November J2-1J an election was held and Charles was
chosen king. ITpon assuming the throne on November 25 he took the
name of Haakon VII.
King Haakon Is the second son of King Frederick of Denmark. lie
was born August 13, 1872, at Chartottenlund, the summer residence of
his father. He was trained for the navy - and made several cruises
aboard Danish warships.
Queen Maud Is the daughter of Edward VII of England. Her child
hood was spent at Sandringham, the favorite home of the English royal
family. It was during the visit of the princess and her sister, Princess
Victoria, to their grandparents at Copenhagen that the friendship be
tween Charles and Maud wds begun. There, was conriderablt opposition
to the marriage, as Maud was the,daughter nf the future king, of England
and Charles was only a Danish prince. No-one then dreamed of the great
events that were destined soon to coma Into the young prince's life.
The wedding took place In July, 1838, In Bucklng|inm palace chapel.
Prince Charles was well received In England. His father-in-law be- •
camo much attaohed to him, and often employed him In delicate and Im
portant missions. ' _ , „ . , .
The royal couple have one son.’Prince Olaf, now heir apparent to the
Norwegian throne. He will be three years old week after next, having
been born at Appleton house, Sandringham, on July 2, 1908.

HAAKON VII IS CROWNED
KING OF REBORN NOR WA Y
Continued from Pas# Ons.
- fusion marched the lower court and
>te functionaries. The king was In
.eneral’s uniform, and, besides other
- - - orations, he wore a plaque of St.
<>laf. The queen'e dress wes magnifi
cent. It was of doth of silver, veiled
With Ivory white tulle. It finished In a
high transparent collar of old lace,
edged with silver. The long train of
'he gown, heavily embroidered with
silver, was borne by three malde of
honor. The procession was nearly an
hnur-ln pasting and all alonr the route
there were manifestations of genuine
enthusiasm on the part of the crowds.
At the Cathedrel.
An hour before the time set for the
coronation those who were privileged
to witness the ceremony had begun to
take their places In the cathedral. The
galleries of the nave were lined with
distinguished foreign envoys from
many parte of the world. The show
of color there. In harmony with the
cathedral decorations, was rich and
Erasing. Seated close by Prince Hen
ry of Prussia and the Crown Prince of
Denmark, both of whom were accom
panied by their suites In brilliant uni
forms, was the American envoy, Chas.
R. Graves. With Minister Graves was
Lieutenant Commander John H. Gib
bons of the United States navy.
The time of waiting waa relieved by
music. The chief features of the mu-
•leal program were the processional
' om posed for the occasion by Ole Olson
*nd a cantata by Halvorsen. the latter
being sung by a chorus of 100 voices.
Ceremony of Coronation.
A . roar of cheers announced the ar
rival of the royal procession shortly
•iter ll o'clock. The king and queen
"titered by the northern doorway of
'he cathedral, walking up the steps on
« strip of red velvet, under a canopy
'-caring the arms of Norway, and pro-
■ ceded along the nave.
The king was received by the Bishop
°f Trondhjem, supported by the Bish
op of Bergen and the Metropolitan of
Christiania and surrounded by numer
ous clergymen. After several short
prayers the king was accompanied tn
an arm chair, placed on the right of
the altar, hnd the bearers of the Im
perial banner and the royal Insignia
ranged In a semi-circle about him.
The queen was received In like manner
and placed In a chair opposite the
king's. When all were placed the or
gan ceased playing and the king and
queen knelt In prayer In solemn si
lence. When they regained their seats
the royal Insignia were placed upon
the altar, divine services began, and
after several hymns and brief prayers
the Metropolitan of Christiania preach
ed a short and appropriate sermon.
Anointed by Bishop.
Then the king rose and weht to the
royal throne, placed) upon temporary
steps In front of the altar. The prince
ly mantle was taken from his shoul
ders and the royal mantle, with Its
gold embroidered crowns upon purple
velvet and. with borders of ermine, was
put upon him.
Again the king knelt, and the an
ointing ceremony followed. The bish
op of Trondhjem dipped a finger In the
anointment horn end made the sign of
the cross on the king's naked breset,
saying, as he did so:
"May the Almighty, Eternal God
pour over you His nplrtlt and grace,
thaj you may, with wisdom and
strength and good will, so rule over
us that the name of the Lord be glori
fied, that right and truth prevail, that
the weal of the land and of the peo
ple be furthered end confirmed."
King Takes Oath.
The administration of the oath fol
lowed. Standing before the king's
chair,-Premier Mlchelaen asked:
"Sir, is your majesty willing to take
the oath 7“
The king answered In firm, strong
"fa’m willing," etc, hie replies being
easily heard In the most distant parts
of the marble-pillared cathedral.
The crown was then placed on the
king's brow, and he received the scep
ter, the globe, end the sword, accord
ing to the program. When all these
ceremonies, each accompanied by an
appropriate sentence, were over, the
klng-al-arms lifted up his staff and
exclaimed: . :
"Now, King Haakon VII Is crowned
King of Norway, he and nobody else."
This announcement was greeted with
cheers, nourishes of trumpets and the
royal salute of 112 guns. As the ac
clamation died away, the clanging of
the Joy bells, the noise of guns, and
the shouting of the people outside pen
etrated Into the cathedral, where the
king eat, motionless, his daszllng crown
on his head and his scepter held firm
ly In his hand.
Crowning of the Queen.
After another prayer had been offer
ed the king rose from his throne and
returned to his chair In the nave. Then
the queen was conducted to the throne
and the same ceremonies were gone
through with. Her majesty, accompa
nled by .her entourage, proceeded to
the altar eteps, where, under a pall of
cloth of gold she was quickly crowned
by the Bishop of Trondhjem. She waa
then led to the .chair beside that In
which the king sat, and her enthronlxa-
tlon was accomplished.
The queen bowed to King Haakon
and both walked to the altar and re
ceived the communion. All present
knelt. The whole spectacle was most
Impressive, and was made more brill
iant owing to the surroundings. Neith
er of their majesties returned to their
thrones after the communion, but re-
mslned at the altar. The service,
which was concluded with the singing
of the last verse of the Halvorsen can
tata, written especially for the coro
nation, was brought to a close without
a hitch.
8eenee of Enthusiasm.
A few minutes later the king and
queen emerged from the cathedral, still
wearing their crowns and carrying
scepter and globe. As the king pass
ed beneath the entrance arch those In
the body of the church commenced to
cheer. The sound grew In volume, the
whole vast throng rising and hurrah
ing at the top of tdelr voices. Until
the last man In the royal procession
had disappeared without the entrance
the cheering was continued.
The departure of the king and queen
from the cathedral waa signaled by an
other salute, the masaed bands play
ing the national anthem. The entire
route of their majesties’ return tn the
palace was marked by scenes of great
enthusiasm.

By T. T. WILLIAMS.
By Private Leased Wire.
San Francisco, June 32,—I came. to
San Francisco feeling sad and despon
dent, because I had lost some old
friends and because the city that had
treated me with fair fortune for thirty
years, was destroyed. Fleeing refu
gees from the corn belt, who had been
to the coast on a visit, told me such
teles that It seemed almost a sin to be
anything but sorrowful Ip San Fran
cisco. In five minutes I realised there
was not anything to be sad about. I
found men who had lost everything
with their faces toward the future
loqklng for a fresh opportunity,
erywhere high courage, perserverance,
manly-cheerfulness, no bragging, nor
boasting, but simply, "psh; we will
come through all right."
The restaurants on Van Ness avenue
are serving as good meals ss one could
get before the fire. The stores there
are thronged with customers, with
most of their own old clerke, only com
plaining because they can't get goods
In fast snnugh.
Devastation is GrsaL
The devastation la great and It
would have been better for San Fran
cisco If It hail been a little greater,
for every brick and every stone and
every twisted piece of Iron remaining
on the ground means so much more
trouble.
What has been done Is the hardest
and most heartbreaking part of the
work. What Is to coma will be prat
of the day’s work. Men and women
now talk and sleep In comfort anil
wear clean linen. Under the balmy
skies nf California nothing more than
that Is needed tn complete happiness,
excepting what San Francisco pos-
dealre to do hard work and
hustle.
Inside of six months San Francisco
will bs the busiest camp In the uni
verse. Wages will be high, money will
be plentiful, luxuries and fashion will
probably be largely absent. Thous
ands of people will come to Kan Fran
cisco without their wives and children
and they will live In mming rpmp style,
but Uallforniaha hayw alrendy resinned
their normal ways and have got tem
porary .homes for their families and
Inside of two years high class grand
opsra will be heard In San Francisco.
Ths largest smployer of labor
San Francisco, a man not given to ex
aggeratlon, told me he had permanent
places for 400 first class mschanlrs.
Wages Will Go Up.
Wages will probably go up- What
of It? Msn are wanted here, and' the
price will lie paid to secure them.
Sooner or later ths Insurancs compa
nlss will pay all or part of their losses
That money put Into Instant circula-
i lon will make Han Francisco a sesne
f hustle, und merrymnktng which has
never been seen before In the world,
because there was never In the history
of the world a cunflhgratlon equal to
this one.
There was one esrthquake snd It
did some damage. Then came |ji*
fire that wiped out the city. Those
who Uve here and know how little
damage the earthquake did are pledg
ing ell they possess to find money to
build bigger and better buildings.
Everybody with anything to sail can
find a market here at good prices. Peo
ple are paying cash, strange is It may
seem. One firm deposited 876,000 col
lections last week. The banks ere
bulging with money and they are
ready for every contingency that can
arise.

ROYAL PALACE AT CHRISTIANIA
MINISTERS WERE HOAXED,
FAMILY GRIEF-STRICKEN
BY A “PRACTICAL JOKER"
If the fool killer Is on the job, he
has a vast amount of work to do and
any suggestion of an eight-hour labor
law would be criminal.
Thursday night about 10 o'clock, the
Rev, C. P. Bridewell, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church, was called
to his telephone. Horne one, who know
how to put the tragic In his voice,
said: "Doctor, I am Albert Black fus
ing the nnme of a well known member
of Dr. Bridewell’s congregation.) Then
he paused a moment, sobbed, and, aa
though bracing up, said:
"Brother Henry has Just committed
suicide out at East Point."
He urged Dr. Bridewell to come at
once to his home. Dr. Bridewell went
at once.
At the home he found the mother and
sisters In paroxysms of grief. Dr.
Bridewell then proceeded to oak some
questions. He was Informed that Hen
ry had left Thursday afternoon, to go
to Savannah. Albert, under which
name some one had telephoned to Dr.
Bridewell, had gone to the Tech com
mencement exercises. An Immediate
effort was made to find Albert, but he
had been unable to find a seat at the
commencement exercises, and had gone
to Ponce De Leon.
Dr. Bridewell then called up the
marshal of East Point and found out
that there had been no suicide there.
When Albert esme home about mid
night he was shocked tn lesm of the
report that had made hie family al-
it Insane with grief,
r. John K. While was called out
Thursday night on the very same hoax.
About two years ago, a similar game
was worked on nearly all of the min
isters of the town, But the details then
lacked the hideous cruelty to a family
that marked that Thursday night.
There seems to lie no way of locat
ing the “practical joker.”
