Holy Week, or the week before
Easter, has been known by different
names, according to the great mys-
teries and various ceremonies that
are celebrated ana performed in it.
The Greeks and I.atins called it the
Great Week, the Holy Week. some
times the Painful Week, i. G.; the
Week of Austerities, also the Sor-
rowful Week. St Chrysostom says:
I'VE call it the Great Week; not that
II consists of q greater number OF
days, or that the days are longer;
but on account of the great things
which God has wrought in it; for on
these days was the tyranny of the
devil overthrow, death disarmed,
sin and it's curse taken away, heaven
opened and mad, accessible, and
men made fellows with the angels
The observance of Holy Week is
mentioned by Irenaeus towards the
end of the second century; while
Euseblus evidently believed that it
dated from the Apostolic times.
The chief object Of the church in
this week is to celebrate the passion
and. death of her Redeemer; and the
ceremonies are the most elaborate
impressive, dramatic and sublimely
symbolic of all the weeks in the
whole year. In cathedral and col
legate churches. where they have q
numerous clergy, they are performed
with a pomp and magnidcence truly
imposing; but even in the smallest
parish church, where there is a local
pastor, they are conducted with all
the reverence and solemnity possible.
Palm Sunday.
Palm Sunday, the first day of the
Holy Week, derives its name from
the ceremony of blessing and dis
tributing palms, which are borne by
the clergy in solemn procession. in
commemoratiOn of Christs triumphal
cntrp into Jerusalem; when many OF
the Jews cut down branches from the
trees, and strewed then in the way
before Him. The name, Palm Sun
day. is ancient; for it is mentioned
IN the life of Euthymius who died
IN i72.
The clergy walk in procession
through the church. and pass into
the vestibule. Then the cantors re-
enter. and sing the hymn; GLORY,
Praise and Honor. AT last the sub
deacon knocks at the door with the
shaft Of the cross: 1t opens, and the
whole body march up the church In
st. Peters the door is walled up with
masonry. from which the supports are
removed; so that. at hte stroke OF
the cross, the whole thing topples
down. and the procession enters
through the breach; symbolizing
Christ opening heaven to the just
after His resurrection.
Then comes the singing of the Pas
sion, from the Gospel Of st. Matthew.
This is one of the masterpieces OF
Cregorian chant; and might almost
he described as an oratoria. 1t con
sists of four principal parts; that of
the narrator sung by barytone;
tho parts of plate, Peter, the maid
servants and others being taken by
n tenor: the part of Christ by full
round bass; and the "Turba," of jew
ish mob. is often rendered with fine
effect by a male chorus In three or
fCurpart harmony.

thc church, over the passion and
death of her Lord, is momentarily in.

anything has undoubtedly won the
Roosevelt anti-auicide medal Since
the first of the year the baby crop,

not only by New York, but by any

has been an extremely busy bird

population of the city during the first
three months Of the year. This Is the
biggest number on record for any
three months in the history of the
city, and greater by 1851 than the
same period in 1907 Tascd on the
standard Father l.nickerhocker may
expect about 100000 babies during
the present year and as the increase
Of the citys population depends on
local births for only n small percent
age Of the increase Of its population,
az compared to immigrants II seems
probable that New YORK may short Y

Washington, ID. c., April 1.-THE
standpat congressional program ef the
Republicans has been brought up with
IL round turn by the Democratic mem
hers of congress under the leadership
Of Hon. John Sharp Williams, and the
Republican leaders are now working
overtime to do business with ut de-
bate. They ascuse Mr.. Williams of
fiibusterng but he defined the fiji.
buster as the man engaged in prevent.
ing legislation, while we he said.
are engaged in the business Of trying
to force legislation In speech last
week Mr. Williams indicated the Dem
ocratic position and showed they Were
determined to prevent any bill from
passing By unanimous consent and not
to allow any departure from what the
rules required, until the Republican
leaders would allow some Of the legis-
lation, which he named, aud which hal
been recommended by President
Roosevelt to be considered.
Republican Gag Rule.
Tho Republican leaders, finding
themselves helpless, have been forced
to bring in new special rule to pre-
vent the Democrats from having their
way; and this new rule Is so drastic
that even limited debate is prohibited
on house bills which the senate has
amended. which in future will be sent
to conference, or the amendments
agreed to, without any intervening mo.
ton cf any kind being allowed. 50
the Senate can tack on any amend
ment it plcases and the representa-
tives of the people will have no voice
for or against such amendments. This
would appear to be unconstitutional
The rule also provides that for tho
remainder of the session a motion to
take a recess shall be privileged, and
have precedence over motion to al
! journ and that the question shall be
decided without debate or amendment.
| That is the first time that the rule
that a motion to adiurn is always in
order. has been overridden and virtlI-
ally rescinded. A further provision
of the order was that during the re
mainder Of the session it shall be in
order to close debate by motion in the
house before going into committee Of
the whole, which motion shall not b.
subject to cithtr amendment or de
bate.
When this rule had been read, Mr.
i Williams inquired if the minority
would have the usual twenty minutes
to discuss this rule. They will not
