Colleges and Private Schools.


Notwithstanding the excellence of the free public schools of the city and State, their exemption from direct cost to the pupil or parent, and the great in- terest taken in them by the public as the nurse and strength of our free institutions, colleges and private schools of great wealth, popularity and importance rise and prosper. That such institutions exist, shows the great interest taken in educational matters. The public and private systems are rivals, each stimulat- ing the other, and setting examples of enterprise, management, salaries, edifices, progress and standard of scholarships. There are in San Francisco over one hundred private schools, in which term are in- cluded the select school of a few pupils, the semina- ries, commercial schools, academies, convent schools, and colleges, with their thousand students. The School Census Marshal reported the number of youth attending private and church schools in this city in June, 1889 (including Chinese) at 8,250.

It was opened on the 24th of May, 1869, and the number of pupils increas- ing, made it necessary to enlarge the building, and in 1870 the portion fronting on Ellis street was added. Later on a wing within the enclosure was built, to afford more ample facilities for the improvement of pupils in music, needlework, painting, drawing, etc. The institution - contains 500 pupils and a teaching staff of 19 Sisters, and is under the charge of Mother Mary Ignatius McDermot.

Any woman who is poor and sick is entitled to share its benefits. It is a general hospital for all diseases, and for lying-in; also, a home for foundlings and abandoned children. There have been a very large number of outside patients treated, the physician and surgeon being in attend- ance every morning from ten to eleven o'clock to treat any poor persons who may come. It is sup- ported entirely by voluntary contributions. The Hospital is under the care of Dr. C. B. Hutchins.
