simple Stone Marks His Long-NcE-
Iected burial Place


After ages of neglect the traditional
resting place of the remains of Ireland's
patron saint in the cathedral graveyard
at Downpatriek has been covered with a
memorial stone. The stone is rough,
weather beaten bowlder OF granite
weighing abou: seven tons, from the
mountain side OF Slieve-na- Largie. where
II rested at a height OF 600 feet
Upon the upper surface OF this bowl
der is carved an Irish cross, faithfully
reproduced from one cut on an equally
rough, unhewn stone found on the ISL
and of lnisclothran. one of the islands of
Tough Rea, where st. Diarmid founded his
famous ecclesiastical settlement about the
middle OF the sixth century. Under the
cross the name 'Patric'' is cut in Irish
characters copied from the earliest known
Celtic manuscripts.
This simple treatment is considered to
be the nearest approach TO the form of
monument which would have been con-
structed about the year 4ss, the supposed
date OF the saints death.

The positive and genuine success of the
exhibition at 1911 Pennsylvania Avenue Is
not surprising TO those who have been
fortunate enough to witness this very mys-
FERROUS and meritorious entertainment. In
an interview with Miss Jones. she con-
firmed the belief, now generally accepted,
that a subject under hypnotism does not
lose all sense of personal Identity or all
power of Independent action. The expla-
nation she gave for this distinction when
in hypnosis was more subtle than one
would expect. She gave wonderful exhi-
bition of dual mental activity by writing
automatically the result Of a problem sug-
gested to her in hypnosis, while at the
same time she concentrated her attention
on reading aloud from book she had not
read before. Miss Jones has been taught

song bird. Early this month she headed
Keith's great bill in Boston, and her
vocalizasion created a fuTore among the
Bostoniens. Her voice is a wonderful one,
and her vocal method is the purest and

a comic song and convulse an audience
with laughter. and then voice a serious
ballad that will evoke tears. Her songs
are chosen with rare discretion, and with
changes Of magnificent gowns for each per-
