Thisis not news paper scare story,

Office peacefully and faithfully on route
5 last week and in driving across a
bridge in Wayerly where the boards had
bccome'loosened and uusafe he was de-

He was hurt, but not seriously, although
his head had to be mended.
His predicanent was quite the reverse
of joke, as be was unable to help him
self, but Mr.. Dilloo, living near, came
TO his rescue and proved the friend in
need.
He came back to headquarters wet,
dirty, sore and dlsgusted, but after a
days rest resumed his responsibilities.

this: Anyone is liable to get into a
ditch, but they don't have to stay in it.

THE PASSION PLAY
AS SHOWN SUNDAY
Rev. Father Clarson Writes
Entertainingly of the
Greatest Play.

To all who witnessed the representa-.
ton last Sunday afternoon, brief his
tory and description of this famous
drama cannot but be interesting.
The Passion Play, or dramatic repre-
seutation of the sutferngs of our Lord
is not a survival of a medieval mys-
terry or miracle play. 1t had its origin
in the year 1853, when plague was de-
populating Oberammergau, a pretty vii.
lage enshrined in the midst of the most
beautiful scenery Of upper Bavaria
10 their sffliction the people made a
VOW to Almighty Goo that, il this sad
scourge was removed they would rep
resent the Sacred Passion every ten
years for the edification OF Christendom.
Tradition says that their prayer was
instantly heard, and that thereupon
they fulfilled their vow for the first
time in the year following.
For some years the performance was
necessarily crude and not free from ar
tistic defects; and it was reserved for
the late venerable parish priest, Father
Daisenberger to give US the Passion
Play in its present perfect state, With
true dramatic genius he recast the en-
tire libretto and devoted his labors for
30 years to continually improving and
refining both the drama and the actors.
and thus the Passion Play became to
the people OF this secluded Bavarian vii.

was to them, not "a mere spectacle, but
sacred duty and religious rite.
Hence, during the performance, which
lasts from eight to ten hours, every
head is uncovered and no applause
whatever is allowed. The silence and
positive awe which holds every one cap.
tive, whatever be his religious belief,
is only broken by the long drawn sigh
or stiHed sob as the scenes OF the worlds
saddest story slowly run their course.
The theme OF the, Passion Play has
been treated by the press, both Catholic
and non Catholic with respect and ever
enthusiasm; aud we are told that it !.
