Common Justice,

A San Francisco contemporary refers to
the spring exhibition of pictures of the
San Francisco Art Association and School
of Design in that city. The only picture
the journal takes pains to name is land
scape sent in by Miss Agnes Vance, daugh-
ter of James Vance of Yreka. It is pro.
nounced good piece of work and evidenc-
ing good training and hard study.
1t is common justice to say that Miss
Vance was, until her return to her home
last summer, for two years student in the
Sacramento School of Design in the E. B.
Crocker Art Gallery, conducted by the Cali
fornia Museum Association, and that very
nearly ali the training in art the lady has
had she received in that school, of which
she was one of the most promising and
studious scholars.

Gong came TO his place of business on

the tickets or slips of paper which the

The Chinaman said he had nothing to

saying that there was not enough evidence

the jailer, and left the place rejoicing.
