“HOLY SATURDAY" RITES PERFORMED Threng Witnesses “Explosion of Sacred Cart,” Ancient Ceremony in Italian City. By the Associated Press. | FLORENCE. Italy, April 19.—That | ptartling, striking Holy Saturday cere- mony. known as “The Explosion of the Sacred Cart,” which had its origin six centuries ago, was performed here this noon to the joy of the assembled peasants from outlying townships, and & large number of American and British tourists spending the Easter holidays | on the banks of the Arno | The “Sacred Cart.” under all its/ coverings of red damask, flowing rib- | bons and garlands of flowers, contained secreted within a host of firecrackers, rockets, pinwheels and other pictur- esquely inflammable affairs. A fuse on top of it was connected with a special | wire that led 1o a spot just above the high altar of the nearby cathedral Artificial Pigeon Appears. When the clergyman celebrating the folemn high mass of today reached the “Gloria_in Excelsis Deo” (glory to God in the highest). and the bells began to Ting out from the steeple and the organ an artificlal pigeon with a sky- embedded in its tail was seen fo shoot down the wire and out over the heads of the congrezation into the square beyond. Strzling as it sped on | its way it soon hit fuse on top of the crit, igniting it and setting off the concealed fireworks with a resou ing_splutter and roa The flaming bird that thus set the cart on fire is regarded as symbolic of | the holy spirit, which, in the version of the acts of the apostles, descended upon the assembled disciples the first pentecost day in that form. Origin of Ceremony Cited. Today’s ceremony originated in the | davs of the crusades. Pazzo Dei Pagai, | knight of a rich Florentine family, went | on a martial expedition to the Holy Land in 1099, and tradition has it he was the first to hoist the Christian flag | on the walls of Jerusalem. Godefroy de Bouilion, it appears, rewarded him with | two of flint from the holy Tt is one of these that serves the Florence Cathedral clergy to 1 the paschal candle and the “ne to set off the rocket in the pigeon and finally to cause the sacred explode. In olden times in Florence the | eitizens used to light candles known as “facelline” from the paschal fire, and earry them through the old city in | procession. There used to be great | Tivalry among them as to who should be first to get a light that way. In 1300 the lucky citizen proved to be a member of the Pazzi family, descendant of the Pazzo, who had won the holy fiint for Florence. Because of this coincidence, the signoria, or government of the Florence Republic, allowed the Pazzis to build their car and set off thelr fireworks every Holy Saturday in practically the saire manner as today.
