FIRST OF ALL "INTERvIEWS''
John Slows Statements About the op.
position to May Celebrations Was
Published In 1908.

In 1908, when England had
passed from the sway Of the Plant
agenets to that of the Tudors, John
Stow, the old chronicler of London,
was actually interviewed (and this is
the oldest instance of published in
terview have ever found in regard
to this ancient Maypole of ST. An
drew-Under-Shaft. The old man
spoke of the singular opposition to
the May celebrations as follows:
"And opposite to the Church Of
st. Mary Axe, is the goodly Church
of st. Andrew-U -Under-Shaft. OF
churches we have fewer than Of old.
As for piety, truly I see no differ
ence, for some will always be pious,
and some prodigal and profigate. I
remember the Maypole when it hung
upon the hooks along the south wall
of the church. I never saw it erect
ed, because Evil-May-Day before I
was born, when the prentices rose
against the aliens, was the last time
when it was up. It was destroyed
in King Edwards time (the only
son of Henry VIII, by Jane Sey-
mour, 1537-1553) when it was
preached at Pauls Cross, that the
Maypole was an idol. So the people
brought axes and cut it up-the
goodliest Maypole that the world has
ever seen, and taller than the steeple
of the church. Richard 81. Clarke,
in Columbian.

TRAGEDY BROUGHT TO LIGHT.

Evidences Of a bygone tragedy
have been unearthed at Horton, q lit
tie village in the peaceful peninsula
of Cover, Wales. A resident was
walking along the beach few days
ago when he stumbled against q
bone protruding from the ground.
His curiosity was aroused, and he
procured a spade, and eventually
dug up what proved to be human re-
mains. The spot at which the grue-
some discovery was made was by the
side of a small cliff, and it is known
that the sea has encroached upon the
coastline, and the probability is that
several feet or more Of ground had
been washed away and SO unearthed
the hidden remains, which, however,
had evidently been flung into a hole
there over a hundred years ago.
With the remains was found an old
fashioned dagger, encrusted with
rust, and this fact suggests tragedy.
