GRADUATES FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL.
They Gave Their Closing Exercises
Last Night,
A Crowded House Greets Them—Ex
ercises by Other schools
Yesterday.
Tbe graduating exercises of the high
school took place last night at the Metro
politan Theater, which was crowded from
pit to dome by the citizens who take such
pride in the institution.
The programme opened with the sing
ing of the "Star-spangled Banner," by the
class of '__, which was lively render-;-.
An eloquent invocation by Rev. J. H.
lieider followod.
Miss Theodora Willis then delivered
the salutatory essay,' "Milestone.." She
alluded to the days when the old-fash
ioned stage coach went lumbering over
hill and dale with its passengers, who
counted the milestones by tne roadside as
they neared their journey's end, weary
with the travel of the day.
The golden milestone to them was the
one that brought them to their comfort
able homes. The golden milestone to
inauy of our celebrated men of letters has
been different incidents which awakened
tn to a realization of their powers and
capabilities. In their school life the
graduate had passed one by one the vari
ous milestones that marked the different
grades, till they had now arrived at the
end of their school life aud stood upon
the threshold of a new life, with untried
paths spreading before them. Whither
they wouid lead him was in the hands of
Him who will guide them through their
future to the end. She welcomed the
lriends who had come to meet tho class
on this, to them, momentous occasion.
Miss Annie Glenn's essay on "Trillcs"
followed. If we look at the heavens,
studded with glittering stars and the
milky way, we are reminded that the
great telescopes tell us that the latter is
luauo up of millions of stars, so minute
to our sight that they seem inseparable,
'ihe suiidght that floods the world is
made of tin lest rays. Just as the prc>gress
of the material world is due to its atoms,
so the progress of the mental world is
due to tritlus. Newton and the apple,
Galileo aud the candelier, from trifles
gave the world great laws of physics.
The artist, after choosing his subject,
•s uot leave us to guess its meaning,
but carries out each curve and lino till his
meaning is clear.
Nature paints the smallest leaf with the
.time fidelity as she molds the giant oak
with. The things we live for, that we en
joy, are all trifles. They make us friends
or enemies, joy or misery. Uur greatness
or pettiness depend* on our ability to
properly estimate trifles. Every gener
ous wish, every noble thought, although
it may give us no material benefit, broad
ens our life.
Henry S. Geisendorfer, in his talk on
"Manual Training," said the city had
0 inhabitants. Of these the High
School graduates annually one to each
1,0(... The grammar school graduates
about one-third ot their pupils, and about
halt Of these drop out without going
higher.
Would not the introduction of manual
trainiug arouse new interest and give the
boy a chance to train his eye and hand?
its purpose is to enable him to find out
fir himself for what he is best fitted.
There are 2,000 manual training schools
iv Germany, 400 in Austria, ninety in
Switzerland aud many in Prance, Eng
land anu Rossis. The eilect in France is
noticeable in its progress in trades and
sciences, in which it has taken first place.
Manual training does not leach a trade,
but the rudiments of a trade, aud does
rfere with other branches of
education. It givos a knowledge of the
laws of mechanics much broader than the
«ie Many trades have to-day
organized to prevent the admission of ap
prentices ana shops have also done so.
Our boys have to wait for a chance to
get employment in idleness, and it oiteu
ruins them, either through bad company
or vicious amusements. The manual
training school would occupy their time
and save them. Its adoption is ouly a
mutter of time, for wherever it has been
tried it has proved a success.
Miss Ida Flo-timing's essay was on
Girl of the Future," and if it is
correct in its prophecy the country will
have reason to be proud of her. She will
. clop her mind with good books, study
w Ith the love ot learning and the culture
ot her understanding. She will have a
knowledge of physiology and physics
to teach her how to live and take care of
her body as well as her mind. The ab
.ty ot the idea that euucatiou unfits
agirilor domestic duties will be shown
by the girl of the future. She will be
taught system aud all the arts necessary
to make home comfortable and happy.
She Will be m hat hor Creator intended—
"a perfect woman, nobly planned."
physical exercise will develop her mus
cles and constitution, and she will not be
pale and languid, but rosy and healthy;
independent, but gentle and lovable; free
iv manner, but modest in behavior; lov
ing aud sympathetic and enjoying life;
charitable iv thought as well as in deed.
She will bo a being truly American,
mindful of the great privileges she enjoys
in her nativity and not concealing her
true spirit in order to conform to some
European fad: a true friend and a iover of
the beautiful.
A song by the class was followed by a
fine recitation of "The Lady of Shalott,"
by Miss Gertie J. Perry, which evoked
the applause of her audience.
Miss Alios L. Curtis, in her essay on
"Christ in Art," said that his birth gave
an impetus to art and to the imagination
of artists. Artists always introduced an
element of beauty into their pictures of
the Virgin and Child which stood out
distinctly. It i* seen in Raphael's Ma
donnas. From the picture of Christ
among tbe doctors until those of ins later
life we have none, as we know little of it.
Although there aro many pictures of
Last Supper," we hardly ever
speak of any except the one by Da Vinci.
vVe have also the "Crucifixion" and
"Hearing the Cross."
Miss Carrie George's essay was on
••Charity in Thought." She said that
man is prone to rashly pass judgm nt on
lii> brother. An ugly face, a deformed
shape, the odd cut of a coat often arouses
prejudice, but may hide the soul of an
angel. We should learn to study man by
his character. Hus is molded by cir
cumstances; that of home is most im
portant in its beariug. Poverty and deg
radation, a bad father or mother, evil
companions, lack of facilities for edu
.l—all have their iulluence. Each
man is endowed by nature with some pe
culiar gilt or talent. Without this meu
would be savages. Each man has a dif
ferent standard by which to judge the
world. We do not complain of the various
formes ol nature—how much more should
we show charity to the man who carries
out tho law of diversity, Put the pitiful
hand oi charity over The frailties of our
iellow men and hide them. The nobler a
man is. the broader is his charity for
others.
The High School Orchestra played the
"Reception Overture" in a style tbat
brought out long continued applause,
after which Principal Pond explained
that tbe reason why William McM.
liuii'B essay on "The Silver question."
was omitted, lay in the tact that having
to go out with the militia he had been un
able to perfect it.
Miss Mary A. Kimball's essay on "The
Price of Fame," showed that iv the strife
to obtain it man often sacrifices the most
important interests. It has been strug
gled for from earliest times and always
will be. Pompey's career and victories
were not for Rome alone. He worked to
gain fame, but his glory was short-lived,
he was soon overshadowed by another.
How much misery and disappointing nt
men wouid avoid if they would realize
how fleeting fame is. Men have sacrificed
life and honor to gain it, but true fame is
not won in that way. It is won through
self denial and sacrifices.
John Bunyan, the lowly tinker, won it
Bo; Lincoln found it without seeking.
True fame is the reward ol those who
consciously or unconsciously work for
their fellow-men.
Eugene E. Weity delivered an oration
on "Hard Times." He held that there
was a time in the world's history when
all events were looked upon as the Divine
interposition, but that time has passed
away and men now seek lor cause and
eilect
As a rule, hard times in the early
centuries were caused by famine, pesti
lence or war. The Athenians achieved a
temporary relief through the action of
Solon, but il did not strike at the root of
the matter, and the world has ever since
beeu lighting the same battle.
In 1837 this country passed through
such a period, and siuce the Civil War
various causes have been preparing for
the present hard times. lie thought the
cause was bad legislation, and there are
too many millionaires aud lawyers in
Congress. He condemned the Coxey
movement as unamerican. The remedy
for these evils lies in the ballot.
Miss Rachel C. Chappell delivered an
essay on "Possibilities," and the valedic
tory. Life, she said, is not like a dia
mond, but like a seed. Though the dia
mond may be a rough stone, yet in tho
hands ol the lapidary it becomes a thing
of beauty. It shines in the crown of a
Queen, but it is only a glittering stone,
cold and lifeless. Not so with the seed.
It grows and unfolds itself in beauty. It
can lie developed. The soil for the seed
should be thoroughly prepared. Lift
should be treated like the seed—unfold it
and develop its possibilities. A man's
possibilities are limited only by his talent
and ability in this country. The highest
positions in politics and commercial life
are open to him and his opportuuities are
boundless. So are they in philanthropic
avenues, if he has wealth to devote to
them.
In all esthetic lines talent should be
cultivated, that mankiud may be ele
vated. Great numbers of institutions lor
higher education are open in our midst,
showing new vistas of advancement.
Our moral nature must be cultivated as
well as our mental, in order to subdue
evil.
She then took up the valedictory to her
classmates, saying that the time had come
to separate, after three years of familiar
intercourse in the schoolroom. They had
gathered through the kindly and patient
ellort of their teachers information to
guide them in their new lives. She
hoped that she and they would so order
their steps as to avoid mistakes that
would be a source of regret to them.
The High School Orchestra played the
"Martha Washington Gavotte,'' alter
which Superintendent Erlewitie, with
brief and well chosen remarks, pre
sented their diplomas to the class.
The class song, written by Wallace H.
Kenwick, and arranged by Professor
Theodore Martens, was then sung by the
class, and concluded the exercises. It is
as follows:
O, Time! Thou Invincible spirit,
lo whose power we all must yiohl
Like wheat to tiie scythe of the reaper
As be curs his nodding field,
We wish in the present to linger,
us tbe future seems bright;
We wish, yet ire know it is useless,
Thai you stay your speedy Sight
The j ears bave now glided away;
_ heir joys were uot fated to last;
But we will cherish forever
Pleasant memories ol tiie past.
••Aim High' will be always our motto
As we Bail o'er Life's stormy sea;
In letters of gold and oi white
On our standards it shall be.
But oh! tiie regrets of this parting,
For we leave companions dear!"
May each by suoc* is be attended.
And may (io _ io us all be near.
We must not delay any ionger,
ior we hear limes warning knell;
To friends, and to teachers, and schoolmates,
To-night we must say farewell!
Sacramento Grammar.
At the Saoramento Grammar School,
Miss Mary J. Watson, Principal, a very
interesting and extended programme
was rendered by the pupils yesterday.
The room in which the exercises took
place was decorated with flowers aud
American Hags, and the light dresses and
cheerful countenances of the young lady
graduates was a pleasant contrast to the
decorations.
The recitations, declamations and dia
logues were appreciatively listened to by
the audience ami all the participants in
the programme were encored at the con
clusion of each rendition.
Win J. Davis, President of the City
Board of Education, delivered an inter
esting address to the scholars, and di
plomas were presented by Superintend
ent Urlowine.
Capital Grammar.
Nine o'clock yesterday morning found
the large assembly-room of the Capital
Grammar School, Joseph W. Johnson,
Principal, crowded to overflowing, with
seats at a premium. The programme,
which was published on Tuesday, was an
excellent one, and its rendition was not
interior to its promise.
The march and songs by the girls of
the graduating class were given in the
possible manner, aud the club
swinging showed that as thorough atten
tion had beeu given to tbe physical edu
cation of the pupils as to their mental
development, which is saying much.
The couiic interlude, "Struck oil," was
very funny, and the participants entered
wed into the spirit of it in rendering
their lines. The whole oi the programme
was carried out in a manner which re
llected credit on tho teachers who had so
patiently planned it.

AN APPEAL_ MADE.
The Citizens' Protective Association
to tiie southern l'aciiic Company.
The Citizens' Protective Association
Executive Committee, consisting of Geo.
B. Katzenstein, J. U. Coleman, V. S.
McClatchy, Frank Miller, Geo. M. Mott,
Leweilyu Tozer, P. C. Drescher, Fred'k
Cox, A. A. Van Voorhies and H. G.
Smith, has formulated aud forwarded an
address to the Southern Pacific Com
pany, appealing for restoration to em
ployment oi such Sacrameuto operatives
of the company as were not engaged iv
unlawful acts, and who did not incite
their fellows to lawlessness.
Jhe appeal pleads most strongly for
such of the operatives as havo families
and homes, aud begs the company to
temper justice with mercy. It recites
that the association was the first in the
State to declare for the priuciple sus
tained by the railroad company in the
late contest, though the association was
faced by the most trying local situation
in the country.
The appeal says it is not asked that any
men taken on to fill the places of strikers
shall be displaced, but begs that em
ployes who were not guilty of lawlessness
be restored, and points out that men with
homes and families are tho more con
servative and more amenable to reason
iv times of trial.
The appeal is addressed to the company
through the Division Superintendent,
Colonel J. B. Wright.

Duriug the time the guard has been in

by the officers of the National Guard.

Hurled Treasure.
At Monteverde, France, Hannibal's
war chest turns up full of Tarantine coins
still worth par alter two thousand years
of burial, the metal of which they are
composed remaining uncorroded and the
j Punio devices stamped upon them re
taining their primal legibility. They
were probably deposited iv the soil then,
in some unrecorded season of panic, fiscal
or military, and in the pressure and con
fusion of alter events forgotten. If they
could have drawn interest during this
interval their increment would rebuild
Carthage and restore the mosaic pave
ments and sculptured friezes of the tem
ples of Baal and Melcarth, and set adrift
again the flotillas of the Byrsa and unroll
the banners of Dido above the citadel.
But they reappear without usufruct, dim
with burial and disuse, and will find
their way into museums aud repositories
of such ware, not helping any modern
problem of finance or circulation, but
pointing over again the moral that—

THE EXACT EXPRESSION.
Just What CougTfrs .Said of" the Great
StriUe.
The following are the exact words of
the resolutions adopted in the Senate and
the House ou the question of the exercise
of executive power by the President
against the lawlessness of the strikers.
The Senate resolutions, passed without a
dissenting vote, read:
u jßi solved, That the Senate indorses tho
prompt and rigorous measures adopted
by tho President of the United Slates and
the members of his Administration to re
puise and repress by military lorce the
interference of lawless men with the due
process of the iawa of the United Mates
and with the transportation of the mails
of the United States, and with commerce
among the States.
"It is within the plain constitutional
authority of the Congress of the United
states 'to regulate commerce with foreign
nations and among the several States aud
with the ludian tribes, to establish post
offices aud post roads, and to ordain and
establish inferior courts,' and tho judicial
power 'extends to ail cases in law aud
equity arising under the Constitution and
laws of the United States.' It is the duty
of the President, uudor the Constitution,
to 'take care that the laws aro laithlully
executed,' and to this end it is provided
that lie shall bo 'Commander-in-Chief of
tho army and navy ot tho United .Mates
aud of the militia of the several States
when called into the actual service of the
United States.'
"It is treason against the United States
for a citizen lo levy war against them or
to adhere to their enemies, giving them
aid or comfort.
"Those who combine to use force, to
assail or resist the constituted authorities
of the United States, civil or military.
should be warned of the magnitude of"
their ofiense, and those who earn honost
bread by honest toil can do nothing more
detrimental to their interests than to
show them any sort of countenanco iv
their lawless course.
"Tho action of the President and his
administration has tiie full sympathy and
support ol the law-abiding masses of the
people of the United States, and he will
be supported by all departments of tho
Government and by the power and re
sources of the entire Nation."
The House resolution, passed with but
twenty-six dissenting votes, reads:
"Meeolved, That the House ol Repre
sentatives indorses the prompt and vig
orous efforts of the Presideut and his ad
ministration to suppress lawlessness, re
store order and prevent improper inter
ference wifrh the enforcement of the laws
ol the United States and with the trans
portation of tho mails of tiie United States
and with interstate commerce, and
pledges the President hearty support,
and deems that tho success which has al
ready attended his ellorts id cause for
public and general congratulation."
The above toxt is from the official re
port of the proceedings in Congress as
printed in the Congressional Record.
Whiie not in the nature of bills, the ex
pression has all tho force and eilect of
Law.
THE MANIA POR REGULATION. ■
People Who Want to Surrender Their
Liberty.
[Popular BC-ence Monthly.]
Under tho guise of socialism and hu
manitariauisin, the spirit of compulsion
is in the air. The well-meaning every
where aro longing to see whether they
are not, or can not command a majority
in order that thoy may begin to wield
that compulsive power which it is ono of
the strange delusions of the modern
world that majorities have a right to ex
ercise in everything. et ii one were to
propose to put any one of theso well
meaning persons under tho absolute con
trol of another well-meaning person, who
should prescribe for him bis comings and
goings, decide for him what causes he
should support, iiow "much money ho
should give in charity and for what par
ticular objects, how much wealth he
should accumulate and at what point the
fruits of his industry should pass over to
the State, we greatly fear that well-mean
ing person number one would make
strong objections. True, he wants, with
the aid of those who agree with him in
opinion, to settle these points for others;
but ho has never seriously considered
what it would be like to part with his
own liberty. Ordinary human beings
require something moro than an assur
ance of another person's good intentions
before they are willing to make a surren
der to him of any largo measure of their
freedom of action; and we imagine that
many of those who to-day advocate au
indefinite increase in tho power of tho
State do so under a fond impression that
their particular views and schemes, hu
manitarian or other, will alway prevail.
Thoy, with the help of others like
minded, want to govern the world for its
good. Well, what tyranny ever professed
less? Good intentions are excellent
things to havo, but when they make alli
ance with the policeman's truncheon they
become committed to many devious lines
of policy, and quickly assume all the
odious characteristics of tyranny.
SMACKS OF RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION
Seveuth-Day Advcntlsts In Tennessee
Fined for Working on Sunday.
W. B. Capps, a quiet, orderly citizen of
Dresden, Teuu., is being made the victim
of what appears to bo a case of religious
persecution, the only charge against him
being that he performed some work on
the first day of the week. Mr. Capps was
arrested June 8, 1890, and at his trial bo
lore the Circuit Court of Weakley County,
June _7, l&y_, he was lined £10 aud costs,
amounting iv all to $51 80. His case was
appealed to the Supreme Court of Tonnes
see, which affirmed the judgment of the
lower court, May 24, 188., at Jackson,
fixing the costs at $58 65, making as a
grand totak the sum of $110 15, to bo
served out at the paltry rate of 25 cents a
day. This will necessitate the confine
ment of tho prisoner 142 days, or one year
and nearly three months.
Mr. Capps has a wife 24 years of age,
and four children, the eldest being only
six years old, aud ono of them sick at the
timo of its father's imprisonment. His
family is left ail alone a quarter of a mile
from any house. He is a poor man, and
uuable to support his family during his
confinement. He does not deny working
ou Sunday, but did so because he had
rested the day betore, according to tho
Bible; because he recognized his God
given right to labor six days in the week,
beginning on the first, as did his Creator:
and because, iv acceding to the demands
of the State to rest on Sunday, be would
be denying his Lord. Hence he refuses
to pay the tine and costs, regarding them
unjust, _ince the State is attempting to
enforce upon him a dogma of religion
with which it can of right have nothing
whatever to do. Theretore he has gone
to jail, though a physician stated that he
could never live iv that unhealthy place
the time required by the euormity of the
State's assessment.—Chicago Herald,

Yes? Been thinking of having them re
covered? Hesitating because of cost? Don't
