CIVIL SABBATH WANTED.
Endeavorers' Agitation Indorsed by the
State Association Conven-
tiOn.

OAKLAND, CAL, May 1S.-Rev. DR..
Buchanan of Berkeley brought down a
storm of denunciation upon himself this
morning at the State convention OF the
Sabbath Observance Association. He
challenged the usefulness Of such gather
ings and pointed at the dozen delegates
present to carry out hi. meaning. He
claimed that the inability to gain larger
attendance was due to the lack of inter-
est among the church members and even
the ministers.
The audience took on life as they were
told of the work already done and COM
mended the Christian Endeavorers for the
crusade now being made for the better OBJ
servance of the Sabbath. Earnest resolu-
tions were adopted indorsing Sabbath
law as essential for the good OF the State.

NO MORE SICK TEACHERS
BerkeIey's Board of Education
Makes a Startling Edict
Regarding Health.
No Dyspeptics or Cons umptives Nee
Apply for Positions in the
College Town.

BERKELEY, CAL, May ia peculiar
state of affairs exists in the Berkeley
School Department as a result of the ukase
sent forth by the Board of Education last
night. They sent forth the proclaim ton
that no dyspeptics need apply for posi-
tions in the department. They decided
that in future one Of the qualifications for
a position as teacher in the schools of The
university town must be in good health.
Dyspepsia was especially tabooed by
Director Ro bertson, who main tanned that
persons troubled with chronic indigestion
were not capable of maintaining a proper
equability OF temper.
'The same" said he, 'is true of any
nervous diseases. | presume that il we
required a certificate of health it would
cause a terrible howl, as the vaccin a ton
law did, but it would certainly be just as
good a thing"
The proposed new requirement. for
teachers was first suggested in the annual
report of President Boone, who declared
that unhealthy teachers might be a
sonrce of danger to pupils.
The matter was disposed of last mig BIT
by the adoption of report offered by Di-
rector Crew in which it was provided that
every applicant for position as teacher
in Berkeley must be ready at least to
from organic diseases, such as consump-
ton or dyspepsia.
The new law will go into effect at once,
and if there be any dyspeptics or con-
sumptives among the teachers of the
Berkeley public schools they are in danger
of having their official heads Topped of
when the time for the election of teachers
comes around again.

Tum Suden Returns From
the Wreck of the
Yacht Regina.
No Trace of the Two Missing
M4n Has Rewarded the
SearcherS' Efforts.
Had to Bribe Chinese Fishermen to
Induce Them to Return to
the Wreck.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, |
9Os Broadway, May Is. {


The bodies of the two young men
drowned with the wreck of the Regina
Saturday night have not yet been recov-
cred, although several parties have been
searching for them.
henry tum Suden, one of the survivors,
has returned home and this morning gave
the following account of the wreck, which
clears up some of the mystery surround
ing it. 1t also dissipates the insinuation
that has been made that the three sur
vivors left their two comrades on the
wreck in too much Of hurry.
when we struck the rocks, " said Mr.. tnm
Suden, I'VE were but short distance from
the Hen and Chicken Rock that stands
high above the water, and Vaugh han told
US to make for Red Rock in the skiff that
was towing astern of the Regina. The OBJ
ject was to put two of US ashore and the
third one to go back after the remaining
Two clinging to the yacht. We had such
confidence in Vaughan that We obey ed
him, not however, without making pro-
test Once away from the wreck the skill
was at the mercy OF the heavy wind and
high sea.
I'VE tried to make the rock few rods
off, but we were driven ashore. 1t is a
miracle that We ever reached the shore in
the heavy sea that was running. We did,
however, and after landing Hayes and In
gals on the Chinese junk l started back
for the remaining men. For two hours
rowed about IN trying to make the yacht.
Before l knew where | was my boat had
drifted past Red Rock. By chance l sue
ceeded in getting back to the Chinese
Junk, and by much persuasion We induced
the Chinese to take US out to the wreck in
one of their fishing boats.
we went around as close to where we
supposed the yacht to be as was possible
and then eircIed around Red Rock. We
saw nothing Of the yacht, but it was quite
dark and we might have been unable to
see her even had she been in the same
place. Finally, exhausted and sick at
heart, we were compelled to put back 10
shore and spend the night in the Chinese
tishing-camp. Next morning the yacht
was ashore. Than some men in gasoline
launch took Hayes and Ingals to Sausalito,
whence they made their way nome.
l remained at the camp, and visited every
other fishing camp in the neigh borhood,
but none of the Chinese had seen the
missing men. After examining the rocks
again in a fishing boat yes terday l walked
10 San Pablo and made my way home"
Commodore Lancaster and ex-Com-
modore Won Schmidt of the California
Yacht Club spent all of to-day cruisin g
around in the neig borhood OF the
wreck, bat were una bic to discover any
thing.

III. ID. Brasefield's Application to Be
Installed Pastor After Cutting Ex-
amin ations May Make Trouble.
OAKLAND, CAL, May 18.-The Oak
land Presbytery has been called TO meet
Thursday evening in the Second Presby-
terian Church on Union street. The pur.
pose OF the special meeting is to consider
the application of that church to have the
Rev. II. D. Brasefield installed as their
pastor.
The meeting promises to result in
another church row. strong opposition
has already been organized and when the
matter comes up it is possible that Mr..
Brasefield will be refused. The whole
trouble arises from the fact that Mr..
Brasefield has attempted to get ahead OF
his position as laid down by the pres
bytery.
"Mr. Brasefeld was refused license to
preach" said the Rev. B. w. Perry,
president of the presbytery, ''some time
ago on the ground that he had not the
necessary theological education. He was
recommended to take a two years course
at the San Anselmo Seminary. Last
spring, Just NJ onth before the two years
expired, he applied to the presbytery,
then in session, and was granted license
to preach. We all thought he would nm
ISL his course.
The presbyt terry never installs man as
pastor until he has studied three years,
and, as he has refused to finish his two
years, do not believe that he will be in
stalled as pastor on Thursday night. His
conduct has hurt his standing mate
