There are ike innuendos in other parts of the re- quirements that those who keep close to | tie line of studies mapped out by the | professors will not err. It seems that | those rash enough to ignore the pre- | scrib=d course missed the straight and nar- | course that led to victory. | The professors of the various high | schools of the Stare are not so mueh exer- cised over the malter assome of tueir | pupils.

Professor Bradley bas won fame as the author of “Orations and Arguments,” and | the requirements for admittance to Berke- | ley according to the high-school people, ine clude a careful study of certain designated chapters of this work. Prolessor Syle has a work entitled “From Miiton to Tenny- son,” Which has found favor with many | boards ot education. No attemwnt has been made by edu- cators to discredit the merits of any | of these productions, but they ussert that it was but natural that Pro- fessor Bradley should be partial to those schools tiiat were well grounded in his own productions. The Oakland Hign School was also 02 the black!ists, and of course there is » bond of symypaiby now between that and the three lccil insiitu- | tions. Across the bay they were *“‘stuck” | because the scholars did no: recognize a | passage from Whittie’s *Snowbound,” buu ihat makes no particuiar differencs st this late hour. They suy that this was only an excuse for Professor Bradley’s punishing them for not inclu.ing the works of the universily sages in their course of study. The scliools, however, are going to profit by tue lesson of the past. This year the yorks of Professors Gayley, Syle and Bredley appear in the coursaof study prescribed by the sctiool boardsof both this City and Oakland.

For instance, Professor Stringham has just issued a nook entitled *Smith's Complete Algebrs,” a revised edition of a standard workin the East, and this has been allotted a place in the local high schools. Professor Edwards is down on tie list for a textbook on geom- etry, Professor Seccles’ name appears on the title paze of a work on botany, while even the venerable Professor Le Conte has embodied the store of his knowledge of geology between two cloth bindings. The principals of thie high schools of course are not doing any promiscuous talking. Behind the «cenes, however, there are these who criticize Professor Brad- ley’s ironclad ruling, and insinuate that [ his action tends to build up at the State | University a sort of textbook hierarchy. { Whi'e admitting that the sages at Berke- ley may b st as competent as anybody else to provile a course of instruction for intending students they profess to see in this production of literature from the pro- fessors more than a mere desire to ad- | | has been ade that in no instance where discredited.

Juige Campbell called the court to or- | der at 2 o’clock in thke afternoon in what | is'known as the conversation-room of the business offics of Hoffman, Rothehild & Co. The small room was crowded with the people interested in the case and a num- Grand | her of spectators were present. Figel was unuughl into the «flice where he used to be cashier by a pol ce officer.

We will show that it was an im-. possibility for him to have killed him- self. “We will show that Theodore A.

Mr. Ach agreed that Gene.al Barnes' objection was valid, and. said he was not sausfied with it himself.

The management of the Veterans’ Home at Yountville is in a quandary as to whether the home shall be turned over to the Stateor be conducted as it has been for many years past. This uncertainty has arisen out of the veto of Governor Budd to the bill appropriating a sufficient | sum for the maintenance of the Old Sol- diers’ Home. The muddle arose in this | way. Previoustotheassembling of the last Legislature the directors of the home de- cided that it would be better to turn the property at Yountviile over to the State | and have the home under the manage- { ment of the Stare, To thisend a bill was prepsred and in due time was pes-ed authorizing the State to receive the same. ‘At the same time another bill was passed anpropriating $90,000/for the maintenance JUDGE CAMPBELL’'S NEW COURTROOM—Scen: of the Figel anmmatlon Held in the Hoffman-Rothchild Offices. grand be held in Mertropolitsn Temvle on the evening of the 14 h.

For a time it looked as though everything was all right for the transier and the managers of the association were all ready to make out the deeds and have the same recorded. The two bills were duly presented to the overnor for his approval, which he gave to the first. The secend bill—making the appropriation of §90,0C0 for the mainten- ance of the home—the Governor vetoed. Here came the rub. The Governor con- tended that an old law, known as the con- tinuing act, making provisions for the mainterfance oi veterans' homes, made the last appropriation uanecessary. He is of the opinion that 'he State can utilize that fund, as the ol law permits of the State supportinez a Siale corporation that not State oflicials. There cre many- who do not share the chief executive's views. Some of the lui- ter are members f the assceiation and do not propose to make any mistake that will put them into an embarrassing position. The deeds to the property will not be made out to the State until the matter is fully settled, for if such a step should be carelessly taken theold soldiers might find themse!ves thrown upon the charity of a ver: 1d world. This legal question is now considered seriously by the State Board of Examiners and by the Attorney-General, W. F. Fitzgerald. Until that time the me\lxngemenl and sup- port of the Veterans' Home at Younuville will continue in the as<ociation.

[DEAL MONEY AS HE SEES IT Professor Ross of Stanford Gives His Opinion on the Subject, Paper Currency Governed by Intelligence Is the Best Ex- change Medium. Congressman = Maguire. Took Issue With the Professor and Preferred Bimetallism. Foremost among the college professors who advocated the bimetallic cause dur- ing the last campaign was Professor Ed- wara A. Ross of Stanford University. He delivered a thougitful lecture last night before the Iroquois Club on the subject, “Why There Is a Money Ques- tion.” The remarkable thing gboutit was the fact that the professor did not advo- cate bimetallism as the ideal money. but presented a paper money as the ideal, which, to pe of practical.value, stould be expanded and contracted by the Govern- ment as the supply of and demand for the things purchased varied. The speaker did not take into account drouths, use of labor-saving machinery, the extension of areas of culiivation, d - | minished earnings of the consumers nc any of the thousand and one causes which | affect the values of products, but he con- fined his vision solely to the converse, namely, the 1ncrease and the decrease of the purchasing power of money, without regard to any cause other than the vol- | ume of money. Money i.e defined as the medium of ex- change and the measure of the siandard of vaine. He said that there was enouch money in the country to transact the business of the country, but not enough to | transact busine:s at the former level of | prices. The gold standard furnishes sound money, but it does not possess the | requisite of being invariable. True money skould be invariable in value. The value of commodities yaries with supply and ! demand, but the possible alteration in the value ol mouey itseli should be taken inio account. The volume of business measures the demand for whatever is used for morney. Any commodity that has an in- dependent demand ou:si fe of its demand for money cannot possibiy be invariable. Those who assert that gold is invariable in value would have to assert tuat there is | no other demana for gold than as money. Its value depends upon the demand for it in the arts and in new mining discoveries. The speaker then dweit upon the evil | effect of the instability in value of money, and argued that the appreciation in its | value tends to destroy property by de- stroying its real value. There wasalso a depreciation in the vaiue of credit. The subply of gold has no reference to the demand of go'd in the arts, which has increased. All the rich deposits of gold that were easy to get within the civilized | 1 { I belt have been expioited and worked out. | So long as geology determines how much i gold we shall get it is impossible to have | an invariable standard of vaiue. Then the speaker asserted that bimetal- lism was not scientific, but that it was better than the gold standard. The real ideal money was paper money, issued by the Government, but the supply should be regulated by inteiligence. Iis volume should be contracted when it began to ap- preciate and it sbould be expanded when values fell so as to preserve its equilib- rinm. The Nation should inaugurateits money reform without waiting for ‘other nations. Speeches were aiso made by Judge Ma- guire, Max Popper, United States Immi- gration Commissioner Siradley and otbers. Congres man Maguire took issue with Professor Ross. He belleved that bimetallism should be tried first before the better thing—tbe ideal—should bs put into operation. Tne Iroquois thought it was time to go home after this kick at the ideal. A Postoflice Robbery. Walter Atwell of Fortuna, Humboidt County, has been held to answer by the | United States Commissioner of that county to a charge of robbing the postofiice at that place and stealing $2 worth of pestage stamps, the whole supply.
