UNKNOWN ASSAILANT
G. H. Oliver Was Savagely Assaulted
on Spring Street

Chas. H. Oliver a laborer, was attacked
on Spring street near Third by an unknown
man last night shortly after II o'clock and
knocked nearly insensibe His assailant
escaped capture. There appears to be
some mystery connected with the case, as
Oliver refused to say anything concerning
the affair, although this might have been
because he was badly dazed.
Oliver had been drinking rather heavily,
and as he was passing the excavation of
the new Stimson block on Spring street a
man stepped up and struck him violently
with his fist on the left cheek under the eye,
knocking him down. The assailant then
started to run south on Spring street and q
yell was raised to capture him. The fellow
turned into Third street and started in the
direction of Broadway. Harry Lowe, bet
ter known as Shorty" was driving his
hack along Spring street when he heard the
crowd call. Lowe dashed his horses into a
run after the fellow, but the latter turned
south into Broadway and when he found
he darted into little alleyway on the north
side of the Methodist church, jumped a
fence and escaped by running over into
Hill street.
oliver was sent to the receiving hospital,
where DR.. Stinchfield attended him. Oliver
packer named Fred Allen. The mans in
jury was slight, so he was allowed to re-
main in the hospital to sleep off his jag.

graduating class seated in tiers In the CEN
ter--sixty young women, attired in white
null and Swiss gowns, simply made, alter
mating in the front rows with the twenty
seven young men, eighty mine in all. John

Professor Housh talked straight to the
point in brief address, stating the crowded
condition of the High school building which
has been seated from attic to cellar to ac-
commodate its 400 pupils in space intended
for probably half that many. There are
more pupils enrolled in 1t than in any high
school In San Francisco, and Los Angeles
should have two buildings, one in the rorth
and one in the south part of the city. The
speaker then briefly presented the class to
Charles Cassat Davis, president of the board
of education, who in short address award
ed the diplomas to the graduates.

steam engineers. died at the county hospital
as a result of fractured skull, supposed
to have been inflicted by some of the Stone

stairs from the floor above. John A. Web
er, a member of Finnegan's association,
was assaulted by the same men and is at
home with a broken leg. For several
months the Stone Cutters Union has had
a grievance against the engineers who are
employed in stone yards. A committee from
each union was to have met at 1873 Washing
ton street to settle the difficulty.
When Finnegan and Weber appeared It

number OF, men. The men, it is laid, be-
longed to the Stone Cutters Union. After
