True Artist Shapes His Clay for Beauty, Not for Gain. i i Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, July 22. Professor George Herbert Palmer of | Harvard University had *“Teaching as a | Fine Art” as the subject for the address | be @elivered this afternoon in Hearst Hall at the third of the university meetings | for summer school students. Teaching he characterized as the best of the fine art for it takes the crude, raw material and molds it into something wonderfully great Jand complex—into a man. The true art- {ist takes his clay and shaZpes it into rms of beauty, nét for gain, but for i fo | its own sake; not for selfisa or socia re- sults, but to express himself. This is the kind of art and artist he would have in the schools, the artist who enjoys what he helps to create and delights in shap- | ing the product under his control. In part he said: A characteristic of the art product is that | it never can be quite complete. The essential artistic traits in & teacher's work are four— aptitude for vicariousness, an already accu- mulated wealth of knowledge, power of en- nobling through life, readiness to be forgot- ten Vicariousness must be wrought in the teach- er's moral fiber. He must not enter teach- ing because he loves books, for a teacher’s work is not _in obtaining knowledge /but im- parting it. “‘Thought transference” 4s what 1 mean—getting hold of others’ minds. It is a double-ended proces: You must discover where the truth rises—scrutinize its genesis— and also where it falls. Find the line of least resistence where knowledge may enter. The teacher must have an imagination and must be busied with it all the time. He must get dition so he may enter into that He must be an altruist—to be he burdens of his weakest pu- 3 is imagination should be artistically trained, for this is his great business.

MISCREANT FILLS HOTEL WITH GAS | Landlady Thinks He Intended to Kill Her Guests or Blow Them Up. BERKELEY, July 2—Mrs. James T.

Admiral Addigard, commandant of the French squadron of the Pacific, was the guest of Mayor Schmitz yesterday. The | admiral, who arrived here on July 10 in the crulser Protet during a heavy fog, had little idea of the topography of San Francisco's surroundings until he ob- tained views vesterday from the numer- | ous commanding points of observation in the course of his drive with the city's chief executive. Promptly at 10 o'clock the guest of honor, accompanied by Captain Rene Da- zeluy, adjutant of the Pacific station, was rowed ashore to the transport dock. Awaiting them was the Mayor and his party—Consul General of France M. Godeau, Dr. F. P. Marqguls and Alfred Roncovierl. The party drove up Market street to the Presidio, where the admiral showed a keen interest in the fortifications that command the entrance to the From there r&e)’ drove through the park, taking in all the principal points of 1 ' terest, and arrived at the Cliff House at 12:30 p. m., where they found a luncheon awaiting them.

Church Prelates Preparing for the ‘Important ¢ Ceremony. A R Preparations are being made for the consecration of the Rey. Father Libert Hubert Boeynaems, recently appointed Bishop of Zeugma by the late Pontiff, Leo XIII, at St. Mary's Cathedral on Sat- urday morning. A general invitation to attend the ceremony has been issued to the clergy by his Grace Archbishop Rior- dan, who will be the consecrator. Although many well-known priests of San Francisco are away in Europe and various parts of the country on summer i vacation there will be a large attendance | | of clergy. As it is seldom that such an ! important function as the consecration of a Bishop has been performed in this city a big congregation is expected to be pres- ent. It is something like seventeen years ago when Archbishop Riordan consecrated the | Bishop-elect’s predecessor, the late Bish- op Gulstan Ropert, and his Grace per- forméd a similar office when the present Archbishop Montgomery was appointed Bishop of Los Angeles in 1584, ARCHBISHOP CONSECRATOR. The forms attending the ceremony of consecration are interesting, not only to the clergy. but likewise to the layman. There is around the whole ceremony a profound atmosphere and marked solem- nity. There are regulations to be ob- served which are not only religious but sternly official. | First of all, the consecrating Bishop | must know of the commission, either | from the Pope or otherwise, and the con- secration must be performed elther on a Sunday or on a feast of the Apostles, or on any other festal day assigned by the Pope. Saturday,-the day for tae conse- cration of Bishop-elect Libert, will be the feast of St. James. - There must be at least two Bishops In | attendance on the elect, each clothed in | the rochet and with the white mitre. The church dignitaries who will attend on this occasion will be the Right Rev. Bish- | op Grace of Sacramento and the Right | Rev. Bishop Conaty of Los Angeles. At the convenlent hour, which has been set at 8 o'clock in the morning, the elect, | with the Bishops, will enter the church and | the consecrator after prayer at the altar wiil put on his vestments for the occa-| | sion, the elect, with the assistant Bishops, | | retiring to their chapel in the meantime | | ments. When ready for the ceremony the | Bishops, with the elect In the center, will | enter and proceed before the consecrator seats before him in the following order: | READING MANDATE. The elect with his face toward the con-| secrator, the older Bishop to the right of | | the elect, the junior to his left, but in| | such a manner that the two Bishops shall | | face each other. Thus being placed, and after a short Interval, they will rise, the | elect without his berretta and the assistant | | Bishops without their mitres. At this | moment the senlor assistant Bishop, turn- | | ing toward the consecrator, will say: | | “Most reverend father, the holy mother, | | the Catholic church, asks that this present | | presbyter you should raise to the burden\ | of the episcopacy,” whereupon the con- secrator will ask, ““Have you the apostolic | | mandate order? . i | The sentor Bishop will answer in the af- | | firmative and the consécrator will request | that it be read. | The notary will then take the mandate | | morning at his late home in San Juan. |, on'the Bishop's hand and will read it in | slow and measured tone from beginning | to end. At the conclusion of the solemn | reading the consecrator will exclaim, “Deo | | gratias.” | After a preamble by the consecrator the | | elect will rise and with head uncovered | and in answer to each question in regard |to Seripture, tradition, morals and so on will say, “Yes, with all my heart I desire to assent to all things and obey in every- | | thing.” | ANOINTING HANDS.

Denver Lad Is in Poor Condi- tion and Lacks His Usual Speed. —_— BOSTON, July 22—While Young Cor- bett, champion feather-weight of the world, got the decision over Jimmy Briggs In their ten-round bout to-night before the Tammany Club, the Boston | boy gained considerable prestige by stay- ing the limit. It was the second time the two had met, and each time Briggs man- aged to stay with the champion the full length of the bout. An agreement to break clean was costly to Corbett, who does Lis greatest execution when fastened to his opponent. Briggs exercised excellent ring general- ship and kept away from Corbett's swings or ducked when he was in close. As a consequence Corbett failed to land any damaging blows and Briggs was fresh at the finish. Corbett's poor condition was evident, as he refused to set a fast pace. Briggs grew more confident as the bout pro- gressed and went at the champlon with left swings to the body, but was content to let Corbett do the worrying. -For five rounds the bout was slow, Corbett simply stabbing with his left, trying to get near enough to reach over with his right; but he never got a chance, as Briggs was | ready to back away or duck under the | powerful blows. The champion was faulty in measuring his distance, as many | of the swings upon which he depended | fell short or his wildness carried him into | the ropes. | The seventh was the most viclous | round, as Corbett at this point mixed the | ight and endeavored to finish it. Briggs. | by avoiding Corbett's rushes and keeping The re- Corbett needed steam and Briggs was playing a waiting game.
