After n rest Of two weeks. the Peda-
gOguc again makes his best bow, ana
writes few thoughts rs they have oc-
CURED 70 him In tho meantime.
He has been noting carefully the dt-
ferent opinions expressed on the High
School question, ana AZ far as ne can
summarize them. a consensus OF the
same would be about a. follows. VIZ:
We have good schools as they are at
present !. e, as far as they go. but they
do not gu far enough. a great many
people would like TO have their children
receive q higher education than what
they now receive In our grammar schools
hut they are not able 10 send them away
from home, II We had high school,
say these persons, and there are many
OF them, we could give our children, at
least two years more schooling, and keep
them at home at the same time. Others
think that II would be better to centrallZe

add a new study 10 the course. SIN 9TH

jnrlty say that II our schools are TO re-
main "a they are as far nv the course Of
study II concerned. then why not let
them remain just as they have been for
years We have good schools say they,
and the people are satisfied with them.
then why dlSturb them? A great many
who say this though are in favor ~ a
high school. II II IS made high school
worthy OF the name.
The PedagOgue has heard all these
opinions advanced and has heard many
arguments for and against the high
school, but not one OF them has shaken

will extend two years beyond that NJ our

may not be best to add there two'years OF

they see the great advantages resulting
from a good high school they will all

The city superintendent of schools has
decided to prepare questions for final ex.
animation in the following branches for
the classes in the grammar schools:
First year-Physiology and Literature.
Second year-Alsebra, Physics and
Grammar.
Junlors-Rhetorie. Civil Government,
and Arithmetic.
These examinations Will be given at
the close Of the school year, and the pu-

things come to that point where their
BOOKS would have to be thrown open to
thorough investigation.
"Of course, if the company decides to
dismiss the suit, we could do nothing to
prevent it. We would then feel obliged,
naturally. to make such reductions as we
deemed proper. That is wherever we
found rates on any branch or on any COM
modify too high, we would reduce them.
L believe, however. that this would be done
only after a proper investigation of the
facts and circumstances connected with
each case.
II hardly think a compromise of the
matter is likely, but would not care to
express myself definitely until after had
consulted with the Attorney-General.
'The talk about the suit being a heavy
tax upon the people is simply nonsense.
The com mission is in earnest In this mat
ter and proposes to push the case to
trial on its merits. For this reason l am
anxious that the bill appropriating $50 900
for the compensation of experts and other
expenses in connection with the funding
case should pass the Legislature.
$50 far as the railroad company is con-
cerned, the amount involved is insignifi-
cant, and the motive for the compromise
is certainly not the desire to protect the
revenue that would be lost by an per
cent reduction on grain rates."

.LECTORER RUTHVEN
CAUSES A ROW
Followed From Metropoli-
tan Hall by an Angry
Crowd.
A Pamphlet Circulated in the
Meeting Brands HIM as an
Ex-Convict.
The Speaker Says He Was Once a
Priest, but He Is Now Denounc.
ing Catholicism.

Victor M. Ruthven, who says he was at
one time ordained as a Roman Catholic
| priest, but who is now lecturing for and
under the Endorsement of the American
Protective Association, spoke at Metro
politan Temple yesterday afternoon on
| s'Romanism and Civil Liberty"
He announced that he would lecture at
the same place on Tuesday night ''for
men only" on the alleged moral delin-
quencies OF priests.
The lecture of yesterday was in itself
not nearly so bitter as many that have
been delivered from the same platform,
but the speaker was followed by number
of angry people after he had finished and
compelled to hasten to Powell-street car
for his safety.
Speaking OF the incident Sergeant Con-
boy said: II suppose the speaker was
pursued in a body by hundred people,
but Powell-street car came along just in
time and he lodged into it. l had twelve
men on hand to prevent anything like
riot"
Before the speaking began pamphlet
entitled 'Ruthvens Record" was freely
circulated at the door by the American
Women's Liberal League. 1t states that
the speaker is fraud, and that he served
term in the penitentiary at Ellie, Pa, for
obtaining money under false pretenses.
When seen regarding the matter after the
lecture the speaker said it was true that
he had spent year in the penitentiarY,
but he said he was prosecuted by Roman
Catholics.
Speaking of the pamphlet, at the be-
ginning of his address, the lecturer said:
1.-The document contains just enough
truth to be boldly misleading. l an not
here after job, wife or church, and
my personal character does not enter into
this question at all. !"
The speaker also stated that the circu-
lation of the pamphlet would result in his
lecturing next Sunday.
His address of yesterday consisted in
review of some of the welI-known Protest
ant accusations against the Catholic
church. He quoted largely from 1.-The
Dutch Republic" by Motley, and referred
to the fact that the Catholic church has
been arbitrary in the past and that it is
to-day seeking for power and trying to
subvert the free institutions OF this
country.

THE VACCINATION TANGLB.
DIR. RoweII Is Fuming Over the Crit
icisms Passed Upon Him.

DR.. RoweII Is Fuming Over the Crit
icisms Passed Upon Him.
BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. 1.-THE affairs
of the Berkeley Board of Education are in
a tangle. The vaccination question has
well nigh reached a crisis, and Health
Officer Rowell is after Direct tor Norton S
scalp for an imputation refectin, upon
the formers character and integrity as a
town officer. All these things will come
up for settlement at the board ting to-
morrow night.
DR.. RowelPs grievances against Director
Norton will probably be the first thing to
be disposed of.
What has caused this friction between
the two officials is a statement reported to
have been made by Mr.. Norton at the last
meeting OF the board, 10 the effect that
DR.. Rowell has a sliding scale of prices,
ranging all the way from Is cents to 81 80,
which he uses IN making his charges for
inoculating with the virus. DR.. RoweIl
fatty denies this, and furthermore states
that what Director Norton said is ina
licious falsehood from beginning to end.
If l was talking to his face" said DR..
Rowell to-day, II would put 1t consider
ably stronger, but to say that he has told
falsehood is heavy enough for publica-
ton.
HE has said of me that I was holding
my job as Health Officer for personal
gain, and that L consider a SANDER on my
character and reputation. I will show
Norton that L know he has assailed me
with malice aforethought, and will be pre-
pared to absolve myself before the board
from the pollution into which Norton has
tried to cast me-"
DR.. Rowell will recommend to the board
that they now rigidly enforce the State
law pelling vaccination in the public
schools, which will mean of course that
all pupils who are not immediately inocu-
lated shall be prevented from attending
recitations.
Only about three-quarters of those in
the public schools have complied with the
law. OF the remaining one-quarter about
half have not been well enough to be vac
cinated, and the others appear to be hold
ing off, so DIR. Rowell says, on account of
the obstinacy of their parents.
A storm of opposition to the enforce
ment of the law is expected from the par
ents of the unvaccinated children at the
meeting, and in order to rise to the occa-
sion DR.. Rowell will take along with him
Town Attorney Hayne, who will repre-
sent the legal side of the question.

AROUND THE DIAMOND.
The Santa CIaras Defeat the San Fran.
cisco Violets at Central
Park.

The visitors from Santa Clara shut out
the Vlolets in a hotly contested game at
Central Park by a score of TO 3.
The Santa Claras duplicated the Violets'
feat OF last Sunday by scoring four runs
in the first inning.
+. Foley was the first batter upeand sent
hot grounder TO right for safe hit;
Robinson gained first by bunting the ball
in front Of the plate and Foley went to
second. Graham hit to O'Day and on his
error reached first and filling the bases.
Foley scored a moment later on a wild
pitch, as did Robinson on Pereeria's sacri-
fee hit. Fairy kept up the good work by
sending the ball over first for a hit.
Sweert threw too late to prevent Graham
from scoring. During the excitement
Fairy stole second with Fitzpatrick at his
heels. DrahiceYich hit safe over short,
but was thrown out trying to steal second.
G. Foley was given a base on balls and
Fairy scored on Ftzpatrick's wild throw.
Steffani ended the run-getting by strik-
ing out.
The visitors added one more run in the
next inning and neither team was able to
score until the eighth inning. The Vio-
lets played in hardest kind of luck. Three
Santa Clara's clever pitcher would settle
down to business and fool the batter by
his large assortment of curves.
In the eighth inning the Violets' substi-
tute mascot removed the hoodoo and
O'Day hit to the grandstand for two bases.
Sweigert followed up with pretty hit
over third and stole second. ]. Kelly hit
to the pitcher and was thrown out. Egan,
after having three chances to win the
game when men were on bases, hit the
ball to short and gained first on Foley 8
error It was his only one, but had he
not let it pass him the Violets would have
been whitewashed.
As it was O'Day scored. Sweigert fol-
lowed him home on poor throw to Foley.
Mccarthy hit over short for a safe hit and
Egan went to third. T. Kelly then hit a
slow ball to short and Egan beat the ball
home Steffani steadied himself and
struck Fitzpatrick and T. Kelly out, end
ing the inning.
To show there was no i'll feeling the
Santa Clara boys scored three more runs
in the ninth. Graham reached first on a
hit over short and came home on Pereira' s
home run swat over the right field fence.
Harry then smashed the ball over third
for a hit and Egan ran from center and
got the ball, and thinking he could put
the batter out, made long throw to first,
and as he misjudged the distance the ball
went over the first baseman's head into
the crowd.
Before Sweert could recover the bal
FAIRY was on third and scored on Sweert 8
wild throw between third and home.
Drahioeyich was struck out and Foley hit
safely to rightheld. Steffanl struck out
and Carreira hit to third and out. The
Violets were unable to do anything in the
next inning.
The feature of the game was the battery
work OF Steffani and Graham. The former
held the Violets down to eight hits and
struck ten men out.
The Violets defeat may be attri buted to
Steffani's clever pitching and the splendid
support given him.
The score Is as fnllnMs:
