The Illinois republicans seem
a very contrary set. Thesstata con-
vention has been in a /dead lock tor
night to a large and appreciative au
dlence at the Green Avenue Baptist
church on “Temperance.”
Those who heard her were simply
amazed at the remarkable Intelligence
and extraordinary memory of the
child. Her lecture was not like a les-
son, well learned and rattled off like a
recitation, but was a well delivered
and entertaining talk on the evils of
Intemperance and was full 6f statis-
tics which not one man or wpman In
a thousand could memorise in a
month of hard study.
At the conclusion of her talk she
answered questions of all sorts, re-
garding history, biography and the
Bible in a manner clearly showing
her knowledge of the subjects she was
querrled on.
She bag consented to remain over
tonight and deliver her famous lec-
ture on "Fraternity” it the Green
Avenue Baptist church. ,
Those who have heard this lecture
declare It Is simply remarkable how
thols mere child can talk for two
hours on the beauties of Masonry,
Odd Fellowship, Woodcraft, Pythian-
ism and the workings and beneficial
features of the various secret so-
cieties.

Mr. Arthur L. Ford, president of
the board of education, addressed the
class and conferred the diplomas. His
address was replete with wholesome
truths and was well received and
highly appreciated. His plan of pre-
senting the diplomas was unique,
beautiful and Impressive. This class
Is the largest ever graduated from
the school and contains a larger num
ber of boys than any other class.
The advancement during the ses-
sion by each member of this class
has been exceedingly gratifying.
Each member sooner or later dur-
ing school life*came to realize the
truth of the words quoted from Dr.
Tompkins by one of tbe graduates,
“Man’s attainment in departments of
knowledge )s something, but what he
attains to In simple manhood Is ev-
erything. The man who is untruthful
or dishonest, of mean prejudices or re-
vengeful temper, though versed In
science and arts, is not educated. Edu-
cation Is to fix the tendency of life
upward to stimulate a striving for
perfection of character.” As the
members of this class go forth from
the school, their frees are In tbe right
direction. Each member has the con
fldence, esteem and best wishes of
teachers and superintendent.
Tbe art depaitment under the man-
agement of Miss Brown, and the
music department under the direc-
tion -of Miss Bettis, both at the high
school, have accomplished satisfac-
tory results.
The'first certificate from the music
artment was awarded by Miss
a on May 27, to Miss Lillie
MldoVton for completion of the man-
dolin course. .»
The music department, directed by
Mrs. Michael at the J. S. Anderson
school has completed Its first year
with credit to the energy and skill of
the teacher.
For convenience of record, as well
as for the information of those in-
terested, the n4mes and terms of the
members of the board of edocatlon
are given below:
Members whose terms expire In
May 1905:*
Mesrs. W. L. Anderson, A. L. Ford,

Members whose term expires In

THE ECCENTRICITY OF GENIUS.
Writer Points Out Peculiar Facts Well
Authenticated.
The proportion of dietlngulehed men
and women contributed from among
the families of the clergy can only
be described as enormous, in mere
number the clergy can seldom have
equaled the butchers or bakers In
their parishes, yet out of 1,080 cnees
•>f genius only two butchers snd four
bakers are definitely ascertained to
have produced eminent children. «s
against 139 persons. The eminent
children of tbe clergy outnumbered
those of lawyers, doctors and army
officers put together. On the other
,iand, such is the eccentricity of genius
hat the clerical profession produces
sore Idiots than any other class,—

was ordering a drink. *T thought I

said the other man. Then, turning to
