 Photo by Doran of Tulare.
Someone numbered the people in the photo, and there is a corresponding list of names written on the left margin.   Unfortunately, some of these written names are difficult to decipher.    I would guess that this is a Tulare high school senior class picture; circa 1900. e.g. Checking the names with the 1900 U.S. Census:  most are 17 or 18 years old and listed as students living in Tulare.
Here are the names I can make out and their corresponding numbers on the photograph:  1_ Warren Bradley,   2_ Will Ayers,   3_ Bob Young,  5_ Roy Burnett,  6_ Fred Potter,  7_ Otha Holmes,  8_ Bob Sutherlin,  9_ Ivy Nelson,  10_ Mildred Hicks,   11_ Curly (Alma) Zumwalt,   12_ Elna Dewitt,  13_ Grace Reams,  14_ Irene Carpenter,  15_ Barbara Olive Limegrover,  17_ Mable Cantwell,  18_ Julia Carleton,  20_ Laura Bailey,  21_ Emma Caldwell.        Possibles are:   4_ Otto Bashore,  16_ Mable Wann,  19_ Ethel Nicholson.


 Another photo by the Tulare studio of Doran.   Circa 1898.

 Photo by the Visalia studio of Robinson & Churchman, circa 1899.
The man and woman appear to be members of the Salvation Army.    e.g. They are wearing Salvation Army styled jackets, with the "S" insignia on their collars.
