YOUNG LAD DROWNED IN THE CHRISTI

Yesterday afternoon, James Shannon
and VIM. Adams, each aged about l9
years, surreptitiously obtained an oyster
boat from Capt. Ennis, at Church street
wharf, and started out to ride.
About five o'clock, special officer Muir
dock, rowed out and caught the culprits
just below Market street bridge. He
got into their boat and started to row tc-
wards the north shore but just before
touching the wharf Shannon jumped
from the boat and started to swim to the
south side of the stream.
He had not gone far before he was seiz-
ed with cramps, and before the boat
could be brought to his assistance he was
drowned. Search was made, and at noon,
to-day, his body was recovered.
Shannon resided near Front and West

Congregational Music and Prayers.
rcincinnati Catholic Telegraph J


No thoughtful person, who has travelled
in Catholic countries, can avoid being
struck with the contrast which all our
churches in this country, if we except a
few where Catholic Germans congregate,
present to a vast number of Catholic
churches in Europe. The travelled Catholic
American has heard in some medieval
Cathedral op the banks of the Rhine the
pealing sounds of a thousand adoring
voices, and he returns to marvel, that,
save the priest and the choir, all the rest of
the congregation, at all services of the
church, is ever mute. In the churches of
France and Belgium he. has listened with
admiration to the whole congregation re-
peating the responses to the sanctuary, as
the Catholics of the early ages of the
Church, according to the testimony of st.
Augustine and other Fathers, Invariably
assisted at divine worship. In magnificent
Italian basilicas, the lofty ceiling re-echoes
the music of innumerable voices Of old and
young, participating with full zeal and
wrapt attention in the services of the
Church. This is the experience of the
American Catholic in all lands to which the
traditions of Catholic music have been
handed down from the secret chapels of the
catacombs, where the Catholic ritual first
hymned the prayers of God. But at home
he finds the service of the Church, as far as
music goes, conducted in the most un Ca
tholic fashion.
He sees churches rising as II oy magic on
every hill and plane everywhere there are
converts, schools, crowded confessionais,
all the signs of vigorous Catholic life, of,
unprecedented Catholic progress, but in
one particular there is broad uncatholic
distinction between his coreligionists of
this and other Catholic countries. The dis
tinction is the unbroken silence of our con-
greRations. There is voiceIess dizziness
about them, that is as much opposed to the
eoirit of the Catholic Church as it is to
fervor of worship. The music of the ser
vices of the Catholic Church was in the be
ginning congregational. There are great
many ignorant people who are only de-
lighted with lifting souls. by dancing-Jig
to heaven, and who will be surprised at
this statement but we know of great
many other laws of worship, scrupulously
practiced in lands enriched with Catholic
traditions, that would equally astonish
them. The silence of Catholic American
worshipers is an abnormal custom unknown
to the rest of the Catholic Church, and
unapproved wherever the ritual of worship
is most highly valued and most carefully
carried out. In other countries the laity
from the earliest childhood learn to sing the
psalms of Vespers, aud to join in the hymns
of BenedictiOn. Our Yespers, az frequently
conducted, are an insult TO Catholic wor-
ship, q horrible caricature. They are

| or four ladies and gentlemen. Those who
have been accustomed to this uncathoiic
manner of rendering Psalms, have not the
faintest idea of the royal magnifcence Of
| truly Congregational Vespers. The music
of Benediction suffers from the same de-
feet. The Benedction, with which Yes
pers usually closes, is o visit of alteration
on the part of the whole congregation and
that alteration should be expressed in the
language of the music which the Church
has consecrated to this quasi sacramental
service. Viewed in relation to the Catholic
ritual, the method in which the choir music
of Benediction is usually conducted would
be, were it not for its gross irreverence,
supremacy ridiculous. In every church
men, women anth children should join in
the hymns of Benediction. Confning
them to a few who mar and dishonor them
by the trills and cadences of the concert
room or the stage of the opera, is a most
pernicious and irreyerent innoyation.
A Catholic congregation hears Mass, and
therefore does not join in the parts that are
sung; but Catholic congregation should
sing Vespers. The children of the schools
should be- trained in the knowledge of the
music of the Psalms and hymns of+the
Church, and they should represent every
Sunday to unite in sending forth before the
Blessed Sacrament their voices of prayer
and praise.
What We have said Of the congregational
music of the Church applies with equal
force TO congregational prayers. the Lita-
MES, the Rosary, and other oral devotions
performed publicly. Catholics in this
country, for the most part, respond to the
priest at the altar as if they were ashamed
| of giving this proof of Catholic faith. Their
voices are hushed to a whisper which is op-
pressive and disgracefuI. The only sounds
that are heard usually come from the serv-
ing boys, few children, and few old
women, in a concourse of hundreds. st.
Jerome says, that the prayers of Christians
| in his day were shout of joy. They were
80 because both prayers and hymns were
alike congregational. Catholics, before the
altar, believed in the Apostolic age, that it
was their duty and their privilege to sing
and speak. Modern Catholics can do no
better than to follow, both in singing and
prayer, the example of their forefathers.
In. another column of the Telegraph,
Father Callaghan gives the following hints
to choirs:
The Catholic Church prescribes the 81
lence of alteration for all during the eleva-
| ton of the Host and Chalice.
1t is the choir's duty to sing the Agnus
Del at Mass Immediately after the officiat-
ing priest has pronounced the words.
AS the Mass is not prayer, but a sacri
| fee, it is one continuous act, the priest at
the altar is forbidden to mutilate it by the
| least stoppage; and those who serve him at
High Mass, by music or otherwise. are for
| hidden to force upon him the least detent ton
during the Canon. They mnststop to allow
him to proceed, at the sacrifice of every
thing else.
