 Several of the highest officials Of state, constituting the Court of Claims. have been sitting in soi- emn cOnclave. wearing thei runi- forms. robes of office and orders to pass upon the rights of various noblemen and others to perform certain parts in the ceremony. These claims are mostly archaic and quaint in the eyes of Ameri- cans.
 The Dean and Chapter of West minister have the right to retain the robes and ornaments, the Earl Of Shrewsbury to carry a white wand as Lord High Steward of Ireland, the Duke of Newcastle to provide a glove and support the Kings right arm while holding the sceptre by virtue of the tenure of the Manor of Worksop. Barons of the Clinque Ports to bear canopies.
 Various other hereditary rights were confirmed by the court to many of which appertain fees such as five yards of scarlet cloth to the Clerk of the Crown and forty els of crimson velvet to Earl Car rington, the Lord Great Chamber lain, whose fees for occasional ap- pearances at high ceremonials of state amount 10 some S100,000 a year.
 Three claimants appeared for the right to carry the great spurs-the Earl of Loudoun. Lord Grey de
 Buthyn and Lord Hastings. Sir Maretine Lloyd makes claim tc carry the kings silver harp. as Lord Marcher of the Barony oi Kemes, a position held his his an cestors through a thousand years and James Thorne de Morley wishes ! to bear the royal standard O England and receive fees" The last claim was denied Tht | others are under consideratio.

 Lord High Constable of Seotlan, and have a silver baton of twelve
 ounce weight with the Kings arm, In gold on one end and his own or ! the other was gracionsly allowed
 But who is to provide the baton % the Earl asked anxiously
