The nMoman From EnnIand-n

One of the most curious myths of the
middle ages, singularly false and f1agi-
tious In its character, but SO persistent
that it eventually attained general be-
lief, was the story Of Pope JOAN" the
woman pope who was supposed to
have sat in St Peters chair about
midway of the ninth century For
200 years In the great cathedral at
Siena, Italy, along with the busts of
all the other popes, there stood bust
Of this mythical female bearing upon
1t the inscription, John VIII, a Wo-
man From England" This bust was
put in its place by ecclesiastical au-
thorities in the year 400, without pro
test from any source, and in pursu-
ance of the universal popular belief
that the eighth John had indeed been
a woman, and this in spite of the fact
that the personal history Of the real
John VIII, who was man and Ro-
man and the defer of the Emperor
Charles the Bald, was open to the
scholars of the world 1t was only at
the beginning of the seventeenth CEN
fury that the bust of the woman from
England" was taken down.-Argonaut.
