England, was proclaimed there, and IN
1883 Queen Elizabeth attended In
state at a thanksgiving service for the
defeat of the Spanish armada. Eight
years later, while the lord mayor was
at service there, he received an order
from the queen to raise 1000 men to
aid the French in the defense OF
Calais Before eight o'clock that eve
ming the men had been recruited and
were marching on the road to Dover.
Z Among those who did penance at
the cross was Jane Shore, the IA
vorite of Edward w., while still
more remarkable case was that OF
Lady Markham, wife of Sir Griffin
Markham, who in 1917 stood at the
cross in white sheet and was fined
S., 1000 for marrying one of her serv-
ants while her husband was alive.
This was the spot chosen, too,

and consequently the bull of Pope
Paul II. was read from, threatening

a sovereign brought his new-made
wife to show her to his faithful sub
jects; and last, but not least, it was
here that the wives and daughters OF
the citizens gathered for their little
gossips and firtations.
It was doomed to destruction. The
last sermon was preached there in
May 80, 1880. before King Charles l..
and In 1913 the cross was demolished
by order of the long parliament

AID TO BE PROVIDED
FOR SUPREME JUDGES

Little Rock, Feb. 6.-The associate
justices of the supreme court will re-

rangements will be made by which
they can get their opinions written,
and thus save the state much valuable
time and prevent the docket of the
court from getting again clogged. The
committee of the house which has the
bill providing for four stenographers
at 500 per month, has decided to cut
this in half which will permit the JUS
tees to have a fund sufficient to send
out after a court reporter and have
him take the decisions and deliver
them. In case this is not done some
stenographer who desires to work his
wa ythrough the law school will be
given the work of one justice and he
be thus given a chance to pay his ex-
penses and still have considerable
