BERKELEY, CAL., June 4.—President P. R. Boone of Berkeley’s Board of Edu- cation in his address to the High School graduating class last evening made the surprising statements that “Geniuses are few and most of them are on the verge of insanity, and that Adam was absolutely the only original man in the world.” He assured the young graduates that the per- son of average intelligence is better off than either the fool or the genius. Mr. Boone made several pointed remarks about the scarcity of high culture in American public iife and referred to the ambitious designs that are supposed to animate the breasts of students leaving the Hizb School. Referring in n defamatory manner to geniuses, most of whom according to his | belief are on the verge of insanity, he said that the man of average inteliigence fits | into some place in life. The worid is ar- ranged for him as tie seats in streetcars are made for average phy size. Those who are above or below their aversge | must suffer more or lessinconvenience. Taking up Adam and his originality the president declared that heis the only hi torical character entitled to the term orix- inal. Inreviewing the striking points in Boone called at-| tention to his lack of troubles in chiid- | hood and school days, and to his final| roubles on being caught stealing apples In concluding his talk to the eighty-two young graduates, he calied their attention to the tmportance they should give to tneir educational privilege. He said: It costs more to run our schools than the entire rest of the lown expenses, but the money is well spent. Education given in the putlic schools constitutes juarters of the entire stock in trade of our boys and giris thatenter business life. The reputation and prosperity of & town depends on the repnta- 1on of its schools. To the peaple ot Berkeley, as & product of their extravagauce in school expenses, we present these eighty-two gradu- ates this evening as dividends and fuil value received, and we ask if they want their money | back.

Templeton Fin= ishes an Ill-Fated Voyago. be Britisb bark Lord Templeton, over five months from Antwery, arrived in this port last evening. Tue vessel's voyage was an ill-tated one to a certain extent. The ship’s log in detail the misfor- tunes accompanying the trin. It says: Left Antwerp Tuesday, December 22. and were delayed by fog in the Scheldt tii] Thurs- day, when we proceeded io ses. On Friday. December 25, at 6:15 P. M., A. Anderson, one of the seamen, fell overboard while making the main royal staysail fast. The ship was in- stantly worezaround and a boat was launched, but nothing could be seen of the unfortunate man. On Saturday. April 8, in 47 south 82 west, we experienced & terrific gale. The ship was hove to on the port tack under lower topsai'sand reefed main and;mizzen staysails. About 7 o’clock on Monday morning a terrific Equail siruck the ship, blowing away the main and mizzen staysails. At 10 o'clock the ship was hove down, with the lee rail under water, The main fopsiil split, and we de- cided to cut away the fore lower topsail to ease her. . As soon as the weather sheet was cut the crane of the lower_topsail yard carried awa the yard coming down and carry ay the crane of the upper topsail ya he ship was roliing heavily 1o lesward at the time, so the yard swinging out to leeward carried away the fore lifts, fore topgallant liits and sheets, cockbilling and yards, and sprung the f ore top- gallent must below the cap. The fore lower topgallant sail was also b own o pieces. The yards were swinging about with the heavy iaboring of the ship, carrying away the foretopmast rigging and lee side of the top. Both starboard yardarms were now hanging over the side, the lower topsail yardarm con- tinually siriking the rail and bedly camaging the yard. Both topsails went adriit to lee ward {n pieces. We got the yards securely lashed for the night to the topmastand lower ngging. The vale was raging furiously all night and the next morning a heavy sea broke over the weather siae and carried away the standard compass and lifted the starboard lifeboat out of the chocks. About midnight the weaiher moderated and the next day as the ship was rolling very heavily, the lower topsail yard, which had .worked' driit, endaugered the ship, and we decided to cut adrift and let it go overboard. This was safely accomplished. 4 clearing away the wreckage. During the gale ofl bags were used gocd effect. with .- LABOR COUNOIL. The Prolongation of Worden's Life & Subject of Rejoicing. The sudden and unexpected turn which prolonged the life of S. . Worden was the cause of rejnicing at the meeting of the San Francisco Libor Council last night. In the meantime the work of uitimately savinz his life will not be abandoned by the labor organizations throughout the Siate. Circulars requesting contributions to aid him in his legal fight are being pre- pared and will be distributed in the near future. The delegate from the Brewers’ Union reported that it would be advisable to pay some attention to Captain Siebe, proprie- tor of Shell Mound Park, who, it was al- leged, had been selling non-union beer, while at the same time he has pretended to the union men that such is not the case. 3 The protest against the appointment of Oscar Lewis as superintendent of the new postoftice will be ready for presentation to the authorities at Washington in the course of a week or so. A circular letter was received from Piesident Gompers, advising the labor unions not to take sides on the tarift bill now before Congress where it provides for a duty on tobacco. SBuch action on the part of union labor he deems would tend to antagonize certain dealers, wuile at the | same time it would be productive of no good to the workmen.
