If some wealthy men would only get into the clutches of tlie police it might help, but we don't care to have the mortality increase to swell the ceme tery receipts.

They lliil Adieu to the Los Augeles lllgTii Ncliool and Make their Bow to the Public- Exercises nl Turn- Vciclii Hall Lust Niglit - Essays. Poem** and Orations-*fße Valedic tory aud Class Nong— Presentation of the Downer Medal A Crowded llouso mid MAgnlliceiit Entertnln ■ner I. The first graduating class of the Los Angeles High School made their ap pearance before the public as a class last evening, received their diplomas aud bid a final adieu to the school. As a class, this of '75 has been preem inent throughout their course for stu liotisness and genuine talent. Los Angeles may well be proud of this first ripened fruit grown upon her tree of knowledge—the Public School. Long before tlie time appointed for the commencement of the exercises, Turn-Verein Hall was crowded from floor to gallery, every available nook holding somebody anxious to witness the Interesting ceremony of gradua tion. It stands as a credit to the peo ple of Los Angeles that they have al ways rallied around the public schools, assistins and encouraging them as much by their moral as their financial support. No public exhibition yet given in the city lias failed to draw a full audience and prove the most com plete success in every way. The exercises commenced shortly after 8 o'clock last night by music from the Enterprise Brass Band, and a prayer by Rev. Mr. Campbell. Be side the members of the graduating class there wore seated upon tlie stage Dr. Lucky, Superintendent of the Public Schools, Miss Hawks, Assist ant Principal of tlie High School,Gov. J. <;. Downey, Rev. Dr. Hill, Rev. Mr. Campbell, Rev. D.T. Packard, and the members ot the School Board. Dr. Lucky announced that the next exercise was not on the pro gramme, and that by request of the Board of Education the report of the committee appointed to pass upon the examination would be read. Rev. Mr. Packard, pastor of tho Congregational church, read the report, which we will publish to-morrow. Tlie Salutatory Address was deliv ered by Mr. Henry W. O'Melveny, of the graduating class. The young gen tleman stepped forward with confi dence and spoke with a finish of ad dreM that would have been creditable to many an older orator. His remarks Were quite short, immediately to the point, and therein displayed much tact on the part of the young gentle man. Miss Jessie Peel then read a finely written essay entitled "Altars of Sac rifice." It was redolent with poetical thought, and had that greatest of mer its, pure, finished English, without an attempt at display. The young lady read with a clear, full voice, audible in tlie remotest corner of the hall. Miss Addie Gates then read an es say entitled "Study; its Incentives and Rewards." Tlie composition was finished und full of practical thought, eliciting a hearty encore and shower of boquets from the audience. After music by the baud Mr. Henry Leek delivered an original oration which be called "The Pathfinders." His remarks were principally confined to historical subjects, introducing not only practical but mental pathfinders. The orator acquitted himself with much credit. Miss Yda Addis followed with an essay on " Dreams." The text was closely adhered to and some ideas brought forth which were certainly original; perhaps too poetical to with stand tlie shafts of investigation. There were practical thoughts, also, in the composition, as snown by the fol lowing beautiful words: "On the whole, dreams are not reliable; beau tiful they are, but with a dangerous beauty, for they tempt us with their brilliant attractions, to destroy by their baleful effects. But more beau tiful, more fascinating and more per ilous than these are day-dreams. Oh! the gorgeous air-castles that arise be fore us! Blue, tranquil skies; clear, plucid waters; luxuriant llowers and forests brighten and glisten, bloom and wave, in our lovable waking dreams. Sweet music echoes through stately halls, and loving voices float around us, thrilling the heart as naught else eau." Throughout, the composition was marked with thought and deep feeling. "Heroes of Peace," an essay read by Miss liillie Milliken, was a finely pre pared paperand given with good effect. "Has Eloquence Declined?" was the subject of an oration delivered by Mr. Henry O'Melveny, and received with applause. Miss Mary Thomas read an essay on "Worth and Wealth," iv which she balanced the value of money and brains to a nicety and gave, of course, the preponderance to the latter. In the midst of his oration, Mr. O'Melveny met with that very com mon mishap of forgetting his cue. He hesitated a moment, wavered, made his bow and retired in good order. Meanwhile, tlie exercises were con tinued, and after the reading of the essay of Miss Thomas, the young ora tor resumed his place on the stage and finished his address in fine style. This is what we call "clear grit." To suffer a momentary lapse of memory is only natural; to face an audience for a sec ond time under the embarrassing cir cumstances, requires genuine pluck, which few possess. By his slight er ror, the young orator covered himself with glory. THK VALEDICTORY. The exercises on the part bf the Graduating Clan were concluded by the Valedictory, read by Miss Jessie Peel. Tlie paper is worthy of- repro duction, and we publish it with pleas ure: To the Trustees, to the Board of Ed ucation and to tho public do we owe our first thanks for the kindness that we have received in every part of our school journey. Not only have you aided us in climbing that high mount crowned with the fair Temple of Wis dom, but we have been encouraged by you aud incited to greater efforts by your interest. Now that we, the ftrst graduating class, are to lose our grasp on.the hands that have sustained us, to go onward alone, all this rushes on us, aud we are conscious of a feeling of gratitude that it would be difficult to express in words. We can only oiler our sincere thanks as we say farewell. Our teachers, who have been our guides in the life that we are leaving, must know, even now, something of our emotions upon leaving your guar dianship. You have held out helping hands in all our perplexities; yes, whenever the mists surrounded us you have made purer the ideals that we had erected, and you have made us better. If would be vain for me to at tempt to convey to you half we feel; nay, I had best be silent and let the stillness speak for me. But though we say good-bye to your lmmediao attention, we will cherish your pun. teachings always, and yours shall be the central pictures of our school-days, around which all others shall cluster, but as background. Will it be vain to hope that sometimes in the lull of action there may come to you recol lections of your first senior class? That your lines may fall in pleasant places in the long future to come, and that your lives may be as peaceful as "The tides of uslc's golden sea, Belting toward eternity," is the strongest wish of your class, as they bid you a sad farewell. To you, our successors, wo hold out the hand of good fellowship. It is true that we sorrow at giving up the privi leges that have been for us alone so long, but wo yield them with hearty good will, and have hopes for the fu ture. Repay, I ask of you, the kind ness of your teachers, the blessings of your school days and the interest of your friends with the noblest actions, dictated by your own good hearts. May you honor your last year more than we have, and may that year en rich, elevate and ennoble your hearts and minds. Farewell! I know not how to address you, my classmates. We have been together so long in plans, pursuits and pleas ures, and have been so happy in this unity, that it is hard for us to separate and pursue our separate pathways. But there is a time for all things, and the time for this association in school is past and we cannot recall it. After one brief glance at the days we have found so pleasant, we must turn our hearts onward, for there are many things to come. The ideals that we have erected and made fairer each year, are far above the storms that sweep o'er the bosom of the earth; with no dust to settle upon them, no change to deface them, they stand very fair and beautiful to us. Keep them so until we have climbed to them and can say, "I am satisfied; I have reached my ideal." Let us work at this, as we have worked together in the past. It is unnecessary for me to speak of the ties that bind us to gether; we know that they will suffer uo breaking, and we feel that what ever may be our different destinies, that we will return with pleasure to our school days "on the hill." Though we feel that "Seven of us to-day shall learn That we love each other better, As we from each other turn." It is said "the morning and the eve ning made the day." Now is the morning of our day, and through its rosy light we look forward to long lives filled with heroic deeds and happy hours, each rosy from the re flected hue of the East, where we stand. Let us resolve that when the day is closing and the work is done, we may stand together in a rosier, blighter light than this at the West rosier than this, because our glorious dreams will have become glorious re alities; bright, because those waves of light shall be "The first foundation of that near, new day, That shall be bullded out of Heaven to God." Farewell! A shower of bouquets and a hearty encore attested the appreciation of tlie audience for Miss Peel's eloquent pro duction. Dr. Lucky then delivered an address to the Graduates, in which he review ed the most interesting portions of the course of study just completed, and delivered a most impressive charge for their future welfare. The address was concluded by the presentation of di plomas to the several members of tlie GRADUATING CLASS, Misses Jessie Peel, Addie Gates, Yda Addis, Lillle Milliken and Mary- Thomas, and Messrs. Henry O'Mel veny aud Henry Leek. Certificates of promotion were then presented to the members of the inter mediate classes. The pupils of Miss Casad's class were first favored, and then followed tlie classes of Miss Bix by, Mr. Saxe, Miss Palmer, Mrs. On stott and Miss Bengougli. The promotions to the Senior Class were as follows: The Misses Nellie White, Ollie Gibson, Mary Chauvin, Philippa Edwards, Eva Myers, and Mr. Everett White, THE DOWNEY MEDAL. Dr. Lucky then stated that some time ago Governor Downey had proposed to award a gold medal to the member of the Senior Class who sustained tlie best weekly written ex aminations during the term. That honor he declared belonged to Miss .Mary Thomas. The medal was then presented to the young lady by the donor with a neat little speech, and tlie " medal " scholar received the honor amidst a torrent of applause. The exercises were then closed by singing the following gong by the class: CLASS SONG. *• BY YDA adhis. We've met again, to separate; Our school-room life is o'er, And now l o sing our parting song We gather here oncu more. Tho tic's that many bound, aro reft To set the wand'rers free; How earnest are tho few now leil The coming years shall sec; And coming lips will cry aloud How worthy we may be. Upon the stage of human lift We each have part to play; And oue may be to prophecy tne light of brighter day;— Or of a cheerful, loving home The happy centre be;— Or yet one's fate may be lo roam O'er distant land and sea; But wheresoe'er wo go, oh! true And oarnosl let us be. And let us part, with loving words,— Cut grudges old away, And clasp with only kindness one- Anotlter's hands to-day. Unpleasant memories are few; We'll leave them all behind,— But. ne'er forget the friendly Smiles, Tlie loving acts, and kind, For these arc tender, precious tics That time can ne'er unbind. To him whose hand litis never moved A stone trom narrow path. But aided us to step above With high, exultant breath,— To him, and her, whose kindly voice lias cheered us oflentime, W r c give our love and gratitude, To last through future time— A love that will not pass away— A gratitude sublime. O God! the God of old and young Be Thou our future guide, And help us live and love for Thee,— Forgetting all beside. O, let the brightness of Thy grace Illume us from on high, And let Thy perfect rest and peace Forever on us lie; And Thine shall be the glory great Through all eternity. The assemblage was then dismissed with a benediction pronounced by Rev. Dr. White. THE COMPLIMENTARY PARTY Was given by the friends of the class and was largely attended by the youth and beauty of Los Angeles. Joy was unrestrained, and music and dancing closed (he commencement exercises. The Bazaar, corner of Main and Re quena streets, has just received an Im mense stock of new goods, consisting of clothing, dry goods, boots, shoes, hats, etc., which they will sell at bot tom prices. Call and examine their stock. ral The sale of George 1". Jacobs' fast trotting stock took place on Wednes day in San Francisco, iv front of the salesroom of Crego A- Bowley, No. 9 Merchants' Exchange. There was a pood attendance nnd satisfactory prices were realized. Deliance was bought by Chas. McLaughlin for $♦>, -750; May Howard by It.

Our friend Geo. P. McLaln is not selfish in his happiness, and in order that his printer friends might honor his wedding with toast and sentiment he supplied them with wine and cake. May George and his amiable bride make a long and happy voyage to gether, and may their love for each other grow stronger as they journey onward.
