The Pope and Church Music.

PARIS July 14-The Vatican has called
upon the French bishops to supply informa-
ton as to the different kinds of ecclesiastical
music in their dioceses, and the Pope is pre-
pairing instructions on the subject, with the
intention Of inaugunting certain reforms,
including the abolition of female voices at
liturgical services. While approving of in
strumental music, his holiness thinks it
should be limited to the use of the harp and
the gentler wind instruments, the violin
being discarded as sensual and profane The
music of Haydn and Mozart does not meet
with the Pope's approval.
