les, from the Gates a. Baldwin store.
Officer Kirby first found one of the
store doors open and then becoming
suspicious examined the store windows

investigation on the officers part of the
premises showed that big quantity OF
stuff had been piled up near the unfas-
tened door and was already for remov-

O'Neil and the store was at once Sc
cured, the owners were notified and a
warning sent along the line to look out

truth. or all the national

tlemsn. The others all go about
With great helmets and swords and
breastplates, doing wonderful things
In the way OF fighting, nad occas-
tonally accom- pli5hing something he
roic. Bul it is notable that most OF
the stories told about them are not at sll
sanity, and still less are they manly
But ST. Patrick appears TO US 20 ne well
deserving OF the cog nOmen OF saint, land
equally worthy OF the Irish comment,
che was gentleman" By the way,
no race on earth better understands d
gentleman shan the Irish. Tho rudcst

lost all the clements OF instructive po-
likeness. He pulls off his hat to you,
and addresses you gracefuliy-eVen
though in your soul you don't believe
a word be says. He may be mendacl-
ous: he is al least gentleman. And
ne knows gentleman when he sees
him. There Is nothing that be despises
more than the brute force ways or the
races that have crowded him 80 the
very edge of Europe. He is Cels, and
wherever she Celt blood appears else
where he has the Same innate polite
ness
The Irishman has this also to cay
for his saint, that, II not quite to she
manner born. he was 8. least native
product. St. Patrick was rs near q ha-
tive Of Ireland as conveniently could
be arranged. He was born juet over
the channel, and stolen in his early
boyhood, after which 1t Is hard to say
whether he sdopted Irel snd or Ireland
adopted him. St. George of England
and St. Andrew OF Scotlsnd were not
native products. In fact, 70 one seems
to know who they were, or how they
came to be Whist they were They
were not British nor Saxon nor Co.'s.
They were foreigners, picked out OF
the calendar. snd adopted for imagln-
arv or real itness. Nothing can be
said AGAINST the respectability and re-
puts bility of these national SAINTS,
rnly that no oneIsnows very much ABOUT
them-who they were at all, which Is
not 3 matter OF so much importance.
Rnt as for 81. Patrick, we have been
able to pick up his history in many
wavs. where we should scarcely expect
70 find traces of saint. For he was
eouElly great as law-giver, as preacher
ard as author.
Nor does any other saint In the cal
endar so appear to the sympN'hies OF
all sorts of believers as does St. Pat
rick. So it comes about that his name
is associated with poetry and romance:
but equally with benevolent associs-
tons. and whatever is associated with
social utility. But it is as national
bond of union that his name has been
able TO accomplish the most va uaoie
results. ireland is unified about st.
