of ST.
PaGnoiGR

A good deal OF scholarly research
has recently been given to st. Patrick
by both British and German authori-
ties. and It is now admitted that the
chief documents concerning him are
genuine, and that he really lived ana
carried on in Ireland work such as
has been attributed to him by tradi-
ton. Lately new biography giving
ST Patrick an unquestioned place IN
history has been published by Prof.
Bury of Kings college, Cambridge.
Three men of Patrick's own time
bore the same name and have survived
in records. This has confused scholars
who paid no attention to the myths.
One was an earlier bishop of Ireland
named Patraic. Another person named
Sen Patraic, and also called "Old Pat
rick" is now treated as myth by in
vestigators Saint Patricks own name
was Latin pseudonym, and as he
wrote it, "Patricius," means "patri-
cian," or gentleman strengthening
the former belief that he was tradi-
tional, or the personiflcation OF class
in ancient Irish affairs.
That Patrick really lived is now
beyond dispute. The important facts
about him, indeed, are in his own
writing, or at least exist as later manu-
script copies Of documents he penned
himself. There are two of these. The
more Informative is his Confession"

old Erin, he wears the best imitation
he can find, and IL he can get no
shamrock, real or counterfeit, he
wears a green neclNie or strip of
green in his coat lapel
1t was not many years ago that the
more enthusiastic of the sons of Ire
land on the day when they bedecked
themselves with green would decline
to tolerate the sight of a yellow en-
blem. Vendors of oranges and ba-
nanas did well to keep their carts off
the street. Even belief in the same
religion was not always sufficient to
save orange sellers; that fruit was en-
tirely too suggestive of the Orange
mems association.
| In these days of increasing tolera-
ton there is less and less friction of
this sort. The custom of giving Saint
Patrick's day parades is gradually dy-
ing out in this country. Many years
ago the New York city council passed
an ordinance imposing penalty on
anyone who abused an effigy of Saint
Patrick, but no such law is now neces-
sary. Patriotic Irish societies observe
the day quietly, and there are services
in the Catholic churches, especially in
those edifices named after the saint.
Even in Ireland there is less and less
of bitterness between the wearers of
the green and the yellow, and the
crack of the shillalah is not so often
heard as formerly to the accompani-
ment of the strains of st Patrick 8
Day in the Mornin" The attitude of
Queen Victoria had much to do with
bringing about this change OF feeling.
1t was the duchess of Buckingham
and Chandos who, in voicing her ma
jesty's sentiments, wrote these lines
which on each recurring Saint Pat
rick's day find warm response in the
hearts Of the Irish soldiery:
We're the most uplifted regiment,
Bedad we're mortal keenl
The shamrock's in our forage caps
BY order of the queen!
This song bears date 1900, for 1t was
in the last year of her reign that Vic
toria, just before her memorable visit
to Ireland, gave orders that her Irish
regiments were to wear the shamrock
in their headgear on Saint Patrick's
day That raised the national emblem
Of the island officially to the heart
high position it had ever held in senti
ment. 1t was small and easy thins
to do, but it made the tiny three-leavet
plant popular as it never was before
In spite of all ingenious attempts tt

represents the patron saint of the En-
erald Isle as using the shamrock TO

IRELAND'S PLACE IN HISTORY

On St Patrick's day. with tender
heart and moist eye, we set before
ourselves the far form of Ireland, gar
landed with the deeds of the past, and
bedecked with the colors of bygone
days. The pages of Irish history are,
without doubt, familiar to all, The
brilliant lights and deep shadows, the
intense joys and keen SORROWS. the
failures and triumphs which mark the
annals of Erin are an old and familiar
story.
Her very early history contains an
air OF romance, and has, running
through it, q depth of color which In
vests it with a peculiar charm. In its
primal days Druid worship held the
hearts Of its people and the cult of

written when he was an old man, and
the other his Letter to Coroticus,"
written against British chieftain
who had carried off some Irish con-
verts as slaves. Scholars who former
ly doubted the genuineness Of the con-
fession have since admitted its au-
thenticity, and Prof. Bury demon
strates that 1t could hardly be forgery
because the text, on critical examina-
ton by the most searching modern
methods, Is consistent in every detail.
while the strong personal feeling dis
played is the highest proof of all that
it is genuine document. And the
letter is Identical in style. There are
also many other documents OF Pat
rick's time or later, from which a
compact body Of genuine information
has been sifted.
The legends that have grown up
around him are much more beautiful
than ascertained fact surviving in the
old manuscripts. Under heather re-
ligion, Ireland's priests were the pow
erful Druids, priests and magicians
who had supernatural lore and inno-
cent secular learning, together with
skill in poetry and knowledge of the
laws and history of the island. They
were naturally opposed to a new creed
that would abolish their power. Yet
it is conjectured that their opposition
to Patrick was not great, because
they had little organization. And Pat

ity onto old pagan beliefs. The Irish
believed in demons. So did the Chris
tian church of that day, and Patrick
carried with him exorcists whose spe.
cial function was to deal with demons.
Patrick believed as firmly in the evil
powers the Druids fought as they
themselves. So both met on common
grounds. His aim was to show, not
that they were wrong but that his be-
lief and his God were more potent
than theirs.
This is the fact of the matter. But
the legends tell more interesting
story, and myths though they are,
their beauty is compelling.
Two maidens, daughters of the high
king, lived at Crochan to be educated
by the Druids. They went one day to
fountain to draw water and found
Patrick and his companions sitting
there. They questioned him, thinking
him supernatural, and he converted
and baptized them in the fountain
They Immediately fell asleep in death
and were buried near the fountain
In these poetic old stories, woven
around the saint by an Imaginative
people, and polished by centuries of
telling, there are grains of historical
fact, such as names of persons and
places, records of ancient customs and
other hints, that throw light on Pat.
rick's real work. He lived 81 years in
Ireland and founded many churches
made the nation Christian as a whole
and brought Ireland into connection
with the Roman empire, making It a
part of Chrlstendom and civilization.
There were Christian communities
before he came, but without him these
might have died out. He brought ma.
terial benefits as well as spiritual
for he diffused knowledge of Latin
and thus put Ireland in touch with the
worlds letters and arts.
