paid him nothing, though he had paid SIS to
Mr.: Barnett, who was his agent in the matter
Mr.. Albert, counsel for defendant, asked how

and being told to answer, he said: ''That is a
professional secret"

Mr.. Albert repeated the question and Mr.,
Grove declined To answer.
Mr.. Albert moved to dismiss the suit, as the
witness declined TO state that he was the
owner.
The justice said that if the party declined to
say that he was the owner of the property the
presumption was that he did not own it, and
he therefore gave judgment for defendant for
the costs.

ifornia of greater importance than even the
most sanguine enthusiasts at home have
dreamed of Sericulture is eninently an indus
try calculated to spread comfort and Well-belng
among the people: it is everywhere carried on
in the homes of the farming populations; in Its
very nature it is a home industry.
Testimony in great abundance can be pro-
duced to show that silk culture is labor for
families, in which all of the household
may engage, as they do in raising chickens
or pigeons, or in securing eggs for the
market, etc, and that it is the very reverse
of degrading" It commands degree of
patience, considerable dexterity and
carefulness in handling the eggs, the
worms, the cocoons and the moths, but
nothing greater in those respects than any
one may acquire. The TRUTHS, sericulture
is new to our people comparatively; it
must expect to contend with prejudice and
ignorance, and to meet obstacles that its
friends must overcome. But we believe
that it has promising future and final
early success. At least, if failure over
takes it, there is nothing in it that viii
leave upon those who engage in it any
degrading mark.

High School Commercial Course.

The result of establishing Il commercial
course connected with the San Francisco
High School is thus referred to by the Er-
antiHer of yesterday About one year ago
the previous Board of Education, believing
that the Boys High School did not fully
meet the wishes of the people, when its
enormous expense was taken into considera-
ton, determined if possible 10 make some
change. With that end in view, cx-School
Director Cleveland formulated and pre-
sentcd the resolution establishing the pres
ent Commercial School. The resolution
was strongly backed and Endorsed by ex-
School Director Danielwitz, and as bitterly
assailed by other members. Ii was finally
adopted, with many misgivings rs 10 its
future success. The result however, has
shown the wisdom of the last Board of
Education in its establishment The
school was fitted only for those who desired
to pursue commercial course, aud its
term for graduation was fixed at one year
giving those who desired 20 battle with life
an early start. Its success has been phe-
nomenal. During the first term fourteen
pupils were graduated, all OF whom
have obtained good positions During the
second term thirty nine were graduated,
many already having obtained positions.
There were siXty-thrce pupils left over, OF
which thirty-three returned to the school
yesterday morning and the remaining
thirty will return during the week. The
climax was reached yesterday morning
when Mr. Webster, the Acting Principal,
was confronted with 4 small army OF appli
cants for admission-ll1 boys and thirty
young ladies, or q total OF 131. OF the above
seventy-!ive per cent. were promoted from
the Grammar Schools aSshonorary and
recommended, and about twenty Were
praluatpS from the Rows aud Girls TIiUh
Schools. Such is the success of the school
that at its commencement had one pupil.
II will start al thcopcning of this term With
nearly 200
