schools poas as the highest graduating
claes which her public educational insti-
tutions put forth. With the graduating
exercises of last year the grammar
grade pupils stepped out of public view,
the Pomona city high school grade be-
ing higher by three years more OF study
than that of the grammar grade, being
now only honored with public gradua-
tion in the opera house.
Last year there was only one graduate
from this higher course, that OF young
lady, and whose single lustre was none
the less dim because OF the bright
galaxy of ninth year graduates with
which she was surrounded, that year
the exercises being held jointly.
Tonight, at the opera house, the sec-
ond annual graduating exercises OF 20
mona's high schaol were held singly,
the class being composed of the follow
ing: Elisha B. Carrier, Roy Fryer,

Charlie Keller. the 14-year-old son OF
Morris Keller, this afternoon after
school was looking over and handling
some loaded ahells. One in particular
he was examining. which he of course
didn't think wac loaded" and placing
cappsr over it to sex it," the shell, as
usual in such cases, went off. 1t badly
burned the young mans hand, and,
striking his watch, dented the case
and broke the chain in two. scorched q
hole in his coat and finally plowed an
inch hole in screen door on the porch.
Mr.. and Mrs. Keller were very much
frightened. but as as no serious results
were the outcome, they are thankful
and think this will prove 3 good lesson
to Master Charlie.
