The Reform In Church Music

When Protestant musicians can
write of us, although the Roman
church possesses in her treasury-chest
some of the finest music that has ever
entered the brain of man, her average
music performance all over the world
is dcplorably inartistic and vulgar"
Prof. w. II. T. Stockley thinks there
need he no manner Of question but that
the Holy Fathers dictum in regard to
church music has come in an appropri-
ate time.
Writing in the Ecclesiastical Review
on this all-absorbing topic Mr.. Stock
ley says: "Pope Plus has not waited
long before acting on his words to
Dom Perosi: we are going to have
good music in the church, Nav he

speaking Of the beauty of the Gre
eorlan and polyphonic chant when
properly sung, Mr.. Stockley said:
NOW, Where in the wide world are
catholics more ignorant of their great
inheritance in this noble chant. than
among ourselves on this continent9
"here are laity more Indifferent and
SO far anti-Catholic in spirit: md
where are some clergy more at the

edge and artistic taste?"

such as every church possessed in the
ages of faith.
Recognizing the difficulties which lie
IN the way Of this much-needed re.

government. In his adherence Of alb
solutis1n he is the direct antithesis Of
the Roosevelt whom the democrats
think they see. He is tariff 'reformer
without being free trader. On all
issues involving property and it's rights
he is conservative, as judge should
be.
For instance, it is pretty we'll known
among his friends that he did not ap-
prove of David B. Hills public owner
ship of coal mines plank two years
ago. But when he cannot agree with
his party platform he keeps still about
it and supports the ticket, as he kept
still about free silver in 1896 and 1900.
No one seems to know what his views
are on the trust question. But I haz-
ard the guess that he would carry out
the platform of his party, whatever it
was, as far as he could.
The probable democratic candidate
of 1904 is another Jefferson in that he
has red hair. He is big man, nearly
six feet tall, broad-shouldered, weigh
ing almost 26O pounds. He is physical
ly active, walking rapidly, and every
morning, rain or shine, he gets into the
saddle and takes ride. His muscles
are hard, and he is powerful and deep
chested. His voice is full, resonant
and pleasing. His eyes are black and
very bright. On the bench he wears
glasses. His hair is little thin on
top, but he is not bald. His close crop
ped mustache is bit darker than his
hair, but still shows an unmistakable
red. His complexion is ruddy, and he
looks like man in perfect health.

At Esopus he has fine library, where

Pat to the Rescue.

A clergyman was standing at the
corner of a square in the city on

''Put out! Who'd put out your rever-

"Ah, you don't understand, that is
just it. am invited to dine at one of
the houses in the square, and have
forgotten the name, and never looked
at the number, and now it is nearly 6
O'clock"
"Och, is that all?" was the reply.
Just now be aisy, your reverence; I'll
settle that for you."
So saying, away went the good-na-
tured Irishman, around the square,
glancing at the houses and when he
discovered lights that denoted hospi-
tality, he rang the door-bell and in
quired:
"Is Father O'Leary here?"
AS might be expected, again and
again he was repulsed. At length an
angry footman exclaimed:
"No, bother on Father O'Leary, he Is
not here, but was to dine here to-day
and the cook is in rage, and says the
dinner will be spoiled. All is waiting
for Father O'Lcary."
Paddy leaped from the door as II
the steps were on fire, rushed up to the
astonished priest, saying:
"All is right, your reverence, you
dine at 2145, and mighty good dinner
you'll get"
20 Pat" said the grateful pastor
'the blessings of hungry man be up
