ONE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL
ROMAN HOLY DAYS.

1t is hardly possible to speak of
music without thinking of the great
Roman saint and patroness of must
clans whose feast is celebrated in
November St. Cecilia, with st.
Agnes, st. Agatha, and st. Lucy, has
always been a favorite saint with the
Romans. There are two centres at
which the celebration of her feast has
special attraction-namely, the basili-
ca dedicated to her in Trastevere and
the Catacombs of ST. Calistus. Her
connection with these two places will
appear presently.
st. Cecilia, like st. Agnes, boasted
of Roman birth, belonging to the
patrician and senatorial family of the
Cecilii. She was married contrary to
her will to noble Roman named
Valerian, but on the night of their
wedding she told him that she had an
angel in charge of her virginity. He
promised to become a Christian if it
should be granted to him also to see
the angel, and Cecilia sent him for
baptism to Bishop Urban, who was at
that time in hiding outside the city.
Valerian came back to find Cecilia
conversing with the angel. He after
wards brought his brother Tiburtius to
Cecilia, and he, too, was converted, re-
ceiving baptism from Urban. A per-
secution was raging at the time, and
the two brothers were denounced on
the charge of burying the Christian
martyrs. They were arrested and
brought before Almachius, Project of
the City, and on refusing to sacrifice
were condemned to death. The lictor,
place of execution outside the walls,
was converted to the true Faith by
them, and received as the reward of
his confession, martyrdom by fiogging.
The brothers were beheaded, and
Cecilia inferred the three martyrs in
the catacomb of Pretextatus on the
Via Appia. Almachius, coveting the
goods of his victim, demanded an &C.
count of them of Cecilia, and on learn
ing that they were already in the

he had the virgin brought before his
tribunal. Being asked her condition,
she firmly answered that she was a
noble Roman maiden of distinguish
ed family. Her refusal to deny the
Christian faith brought on her the
sentence of condemnation, but on &C.
count of her high rank the Project de-
termined that the. sentence should be
carried out in her own house. Accord
ingly, he ordered her to be shut up
in a bathroom heated from beneath to
die by suffocation. This she survived,
and after a day and a night spent in
the furnace was found uninjured. A
lictor was sent to despatch her. He
struck three times, but did not give

THE BISHOPS CHURCH
WHAT CONSTITUTES A CATHE-
ORAL.

When "bishopric in ordinary is
set up by the Church, two determine
tions are necessary: first the title, Sec
ondly the territory. In point of logical
order the fixing of the territory
comes first, because the object of a
Bishop is to rule over a certain de-
fined portion Of the Church. When
the territory is fixed, certain center
Generally the chief or some impor-
tant city, is chosen. From this city
the Bishop derives his title; and in it
he has to erect his chair. This means
that he occupies one of the churches
already existing there, or builds new
one, in which his official Pontifical
acts are to be performed; and in
which therefore he sets up his episco-
pal chair or throne as a permanent
piece of furniture in the sanctuary.
From this erection of his throne that
church is called the "chair-church" or
"throne-church.' The Latin for
chair or throne" is cathedra:
hence the church is called the eccle-
STA cathedralis, or cathedral church,
or simply ''the Cathedral"

Would not Gods mercy pardon the
wicked, and thereby admit him to
heaven? God desires not the death of
the sinner, but that he be converted
and live. The bruised reed He will
not break, the smoking flax He will not
quench. His mercy and pardon await
even the last breath of the sinner.
If even at the last moment there is a
turning to God for pardon, God will
hear. If that call for mercy is never
made, God will not force His grace
upon any one. He has given us free
will and He will not violate the work
of His hands. If the drowning man
deliberately throws aside the life-pre-
server within his grasp he has only
himself to blame. If he reaches for
it, if he even desires it God is ready
to hand it to him and to take him to
eternal life.

Teaching Church Music
PoNTIFlCAL SCHOOL OF SACRED
MUSIC.

Notice was given early in Deem
Der of the opening of the usual public
courses given to students of music by
the Pontifical School of Sacred Mu-
sic in Rome. This institution was
founded at the suggestion of Piux x
several years ago, and has for its
object the training of students in the
theory and practice of Gregorian
chant as well as in polyphonic music,
ancient and modern. 1t was the de-
sire of the late Pope that it should be
frequented especially by ecclesiasti-
cal students from the various National
Colleges in Rome. who, after receiv-
ing training of this sort, would take
back with them to their respective
dioceses the traditions of good
Church music. The same desire was
expressed by Benedict the Fifteenth
in an audience given to the School
last May twelve months. Conse-
quently, for the convenience of such
students, the classes are held on
Thursday, the general weekly holiday
of all Roman seminarists. There are
two classes for advanced students,
which are intended chiefly to give
them an opportunity of becoming pro-
ficient in reading, while the wants of
beginners are attended to in course
of Gregorian chant for beginners.
The classes are in the hands of the
very best masters, one of them a
we'll known Benedictine authority on
Gregorian chant, the other a choir
master in one of the great Basilicas.

GIRLS IN BUSINESS LIFE
WHAT CATHOLICS SHOULD KNOW
TO DEFEND THEIR FAITH.

A Catholic girl in the business
world should know the history of her
Church to such effect that she can re-
count, when necessary, some of its
glories, and be able to refute some of
the most common attacks on it, it's
saints and it's practises; she should
know how to explain the Mass and it's
ceremonies; to tell what is meant by
the Forty Hours Devotion and other
well-known devotions, such as those to
the Sacred Heart, and May devotions; ;
to be able to explain about sodalities,
their origin and uses; societies, pro-
Icessions, the Sacraments; and she
should be especially strong on the doc
trines and rulings of the Church in
regard to marriage and divorce, writes

Religion and Education
MADAME DE NAVARRO EXPRESS.
ES CATHOLIC IDEAL.

Speaking recently at a Catholic
gathering in England, Madame de
Navarro MARY Anderson of former
days. insisted on the necessity of
Catholic schools for Catholic children.
In the course of her remarks, she
said:
Never in the history of the world
has the question of education, based
on religion, been of such vital i'm
portance as it is to-day. After the
world-agony through which we are
passing, entailing the loss of hun
dred and thousands of noble lives,
after the crisis is past and con-
valescence sets in. there will be an
unprecedented need for men and
women of noble purpose, bright and
FURNISHED intellect, of noble, con-
trolled, self-sacrificing character.
We Catholics know that such charac-
tiers can only be built on the bedrock
of religion.

SAINT CECILIA'S DAY

her mortal stroke. Bathed in her
blood, she lived three days, surround

| Bishop Urban. She was buried in the
family cemetery on the Via Appia.
The crypt in which she was buried
became ecclesiastical property, and
part of it received the mortal remains
These are the celebrated Chapels of
st. Cecilia and the Popes in the Cata-
combs of Calistus, found by De Rossi,
the prince of Christian archaeologists,
in 1854 and following years. Her
body, of course, had left the crypt,
having been transferred by Pope
Paschal ], to, her church in Trastevere
in S22. The sarcophagus was opened
in 1899 by the Titular Cardinal Sion
drato, and we have the testimony of
such competent eye-witnesses as the
Archaeological Bosio and the historian
Baronius that the body was found in
tact, lying on the right side, with the
face turned towards the earth Her
embroidered robe was stained with
blood, and blood-soaked clothes were
found at her feet. The discovery was
registered in marble by the contempt
rary sculptor, Maderno, whose noble
statue still graces a niche under the
same altar repose the bodies of
Valerian, Tiburtius, and MaXimus.
The Church of the Virgin Martyr.
The villa, according to the Acts of
Cecilia's martyrdom- legendary COM
position of the sixth century but
founded on a fair basis of truth-was
converted into a church Immediately
after the death of the martyr, and in
the fifth century it is mentioned
among the most celebrated titles of
Rome. Paschal l reconstructed it in
the eighth century, and in it's general
lines the building of Pope Paschal re-
mains to the present day. Beside the
right aisle is shown the ancient bath
room in which Cecilia was enclosed
and miraculously preserved. The late
Cardinal Rampolla, who took his title
from this church, did much to recover
it's historical memories and embellish
it. To him are due excavations made
in the vicinity of the bathroom and
beautiful crypt under the choir and
high altar. From this crypt the
visitor can get a glimpse through the
little latticed opening of the sarcoph-
agus that holds the precious relics
, of the saint. First and second YES
pers are celebrated in the church with
solemnity becoming the two vir-
gin martyrs most dear to the Roman
heart and with music becoming the
patroness of music. The Mass is cele-
brated at her crypt in the catacombs,
followed by an archaeological con-
ference, generally by one of the mem
hers of the Collegium Cultorum Mar
tyrum.

definite duty. Let those who have her
training in hand see to it that the
foundation is strengthened more and
more; that a deep and practical knowl-
edge of her religion goes hand in hand

cate those principles and virtues
whose possession serves to make her,
what she so often is, a shining light
