The morning call., 1894-08-26

The Baldwin Theater auditorium had a
double attraction for our citizens during last
week. The drama of political life was enacted
during the day by the Democratic convention
and 10 tn evening Charles Frohman's Empire
Stock Company gave in a mimic way phases in
sociology under the name of "Gudgeons"
There was about as much sincerity In one
drama as in the other. Stimulation was the
chief characteristic OF both.
FrOhman's actors enter upon the last week Of
their engagement tomorrow with three act
comedy by Jerome X Jerome and Eben Phil
pots, called THE Councillors WIFE," This will
occupy Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings and Saturday matinee. The rest of
the week will be filed with Sydney GrunGy's
"Sowing the Wind" already played by this
company and already enjoying public favor TO
the highest degree.
SYLLABUS.
The story OF THE Councillors Wife" deals
with the love of haf-doZen young people and
the oveTsbadowing VillaiDy Of a Pecksniftian
mem Der OF the London Comfy Council who
has cheated his TWO wards out OF heir property
and brought them 10 poverty. Cupid capers
through the scenes in d deIclousiy capricious
way, and comes out of the ecsIatic entangle-
meuts with sweet smile and brilliant vic
tory. A buoyant creature of circumstances, an
ex- skpping-r0pe dancer, helps Cupid in his
happy task, and there is cheerful kind
hearted old bachelor who sacrifices his own
tender feelings at critical point 10 assist III
the development OF The general 1oyousness that
crowns the play.
AS VIII be observed by the cast appended,
May Robson is not ''Savy" in this comedy.
For three years she has been constantly idenu-
fed with such parts, but IN the Jerome play
she Will appear as a cOmey landlady OF the
English type-suCn a one. for example, as Mrs.
Lupiu, the hostess of the Blue Dragon Inn, de-
Scrbed in Martin ChuZZteWiL" Dickens says
the hostess was just what landlady should
be-brOad, buxom, comfortable and cookbook
d. ing with a face OF clear red and white, which,
by its jOvla aspect, al once bore testimony TO
her hearty PARTICIPATION In the good things of
the larder and cellar and 10 their thriving and
healthful Influences ''She had
bright black eye and jet black hair, was
comely, dimped, plump and as tight as
goOSeberry." 1t VIII not cause May Robson
much trouble in The makeup to realize This

RovIe's /" Friends"

The dialogue OF this play, which win be the
epening attraction at the California September
10, is bright and sparkling. One is reminded
OF Dion BoucicaulT in his best vein and the
haDpiest days of his dramatic authorship. 1t
was written by Edward Milton Royle, and may
be called the first fruits Of much positive talent
yet lying latent within him. An Eastern ex-
change 1ndOrses 'Frlends" as the WORK Of a
young man, and says iC may be considered as
very desirable and worthy addition to the
dramatic literature of the American stage.
The play is good one to catch public favor.
II Is worth a visit for refreshing comedy mixed
with SOCIETY drama. Friends has won a vic
tory in lheairicals that is complete and over
whelming. Wherever it has been played II has
been a success. The story is not an uncommon
one, but IL ever II loses in originality il gains
IN the new way or handling.
