and most ancient traditions, and that
that which is now in common use
follows closely the official version
which Guidetti published in conse.
quence in 1886. In the Papal chapels
the responses of the crowd are al
ways harmonized according to set
ting of the composer Vittoria, and
there is a special decree of the Sa-
cred Congregation of Rites permitting
these shouts of the mob to be sung in
harmony. The responses of Vittoria
have been said by an eminent modern
musician to form one of the greatest
triumphs of polyphonic art.
1t may be worth while to add that
it is out of this practice of singing
the Passion with some attempt at a
dramatic presentment that the Pas
sion music, of which so much has
been written by German composers,
notably Handel and John Sebastin
Bach, has developed by slow and
somewhat intricate stages. Just as
our modern oratorio has it's origin
in the musical entertainments, dram
ma sacra per musica," of the Oratory
of st. Philip Neri, so the Passion
music took it's departure from the
chanting of the Passion which was
universal in our Catholic churches
before the days of Professionalism.

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
THE MARTYRS OF JAPAN.

About forty years after st. Francis
Xavier's death a persecution broke out
in Japan, and all Christian rites were
forbidden under pain of death. A con-
fraternity of martyrs was at once
formed, the object of which was to die
for Christ. Even the little children
joined it. Their constancy was soon
tested Christians were branded with
the cross, or all but buried alive. while
the head and arms were slowly sawn
off with blunt weapons. The least
shudder under their anguish was in
terpreted into apostasy. The obstinate
were put to the most cruel deaths, but
the survivors only envied them. Five
noblemen were escorted to the stake
by 100000 Christians with flowers and
lights, singing the Litanies of our Lady
as they went In the great martyrdom,
at which thousands also assisted, the
martyrs sent up a food of melody from
the fire, which only died away as one
after another went to sing the new
song in heaven. Later on a more aW-

were lowered into sulphurous chasm,
called the mouth of hell near which
no bird or beast could live. The chief
of these, Paul Wilborg, whose family
had been already massacred for the
Faith, was thrice let down; thrice he
cried with loud voice, Eternal praise
be to the ever-adorable Sacrament of
the Altar The third time he went to
his reward.
Peter, a Christian child six years
old, was awakened early, and told that
he was to be beheaded together with
his father. Strong in grace he ex-
pressed his joy at the news, dressed
himself in his gayest clothing, and
took the hand of the soldier who was
to lead him to death. The headless
trunk of his father first met his view;
calmly kneeling down he prayed be-
side the corpse, and, loosening his col
lar, presented his neck for the stroke.
Moved by this touching scene the exc
cutioner threw down his sabre and
fed None but brutal slave could
be found for the murderous task; with
unskilled and trembling hand he
hacked the child to pieces, who at last
died without uttering a single cry.
