That there Is a great deal of public interest in matters affecting the pro- posed California exposition is daily more apparent. Men in all ranks ana conditions of life agree that it would be a grand thing for the State.
 Mayor Phelan is considering the ad- visa bility of appointing committee Of prominent citizens to consider the mat ter. In an interview on the subject yesterday he said:
 T think it would be a good plan to have a meeting of a score or more Of prominent men to consider the matter of an exposition of the character The Call advocates. A gentleman from St. Louis was telling me day or two ago that this city has a reputation all over the East for being an entertaining place. He thought we should do all in our power to keep up that reputa- tion, and that some such thing as an exposition would do 1t.
 T believe we ought to decide on the time and all the details with great deal of care. but I am firmly in favor of the project. If we chance to have 1t at the same time as the great Paris exposition it might result in cutting us short on exhibits, so that matter should be gone over with a great deal of care. I am perfectly willing to ap- point a committee, but I want to be sure that the men I appoint are in earnest and that they will serve when they are appointed and not shirk the work ,"

THE BEST WAY
 TO COMMEMORATE: A Splendid Opportunity to Dis play the Products of Our
 Golden State.

CHARLES SAMUELS, editor of the Abend Post-I think there Is no better way to commemorate the admission of California into the Union than by holding an exposition such as The Call advocates. The value of an exhibition. of that kind to the whole coast Is be- yond calculation. The Midwinter Fair brought thousands of people to the coast and a great portion of them be- came attached to our balmy climate and settled here. Then again. we have a splendid opportunity to display to the world what this State can produce. I think an exposition Is the best way to advertise California, and I shall do all 1 can to help along the movement. The erection of buildings will give many idle mechanics employment; money will be put in circulation, and this Pacific Coast will enjoy season of prosperity. If it Is purposed to hold an exposition steps should be immedi- ately taken to attain the result.

FROM A BUSINESS
 POINT OF VIEW.
Agricultural Prosperity Followed the States Admission With
 Schools and Churches.

GEORGE w. REID, commission merchant, 545 Washington street.-The admission of California into the Union of States in 1850 marked period not only in the history of States but in the history of the universe. There Is noth- ing else like 1t on record in the known world. It opened up a new world for mankind. It has been the means of making millionaires out of men that never knew what it was to have full and plenty in their lives. The discov- cry of gold without a union sisterhood would not have brought about the set clement of the country for agricultural purposes men would have come and gone as they do In all mining districts. There would be no inducements to set tie homes and raise families. School houses, churches and institutions of learning would not follow in the wake of a miners trail The admission of California as State Is what has made it worth living in, hence if we have celebrated golden jubilee we can with much greater joy celebrate the admis- sion semi-centennial.

Baroness Marie Won Zei- Der in an Indignant
 Role.
Sang in the Thalia as Plain Miss Matthews for Several
 Nights.
For Being Late One Night She Was Mulcted in S1O and Will Go
 Into Court

The blue blood that courses through the veins of Baroness Marie von Zeiber is boiling at an affront that was cast upon her by the management of the Thalia week ago, and to-day she will apply to the courts for satisfaction to her wounded feelings.
 Recently the Baroness who Is a pri- ma donna soprano, entered into yer bal contract with Manager James Schwartz of the Thalia to sing at that theater at a salary of $50 per week. One of the conditions of the contract was that she should be billed as plain Miss Matthews, her pride revolting at her aristocratic name being banded about by the habitues of the Thalia.
 She sang several nights acceptably, and the engagement looked promising. Without consulting the management, the Baroness contracted with the man. agers of the Mining Fair to sing there Sunday night, February 13. On the fair programme she was billed as the Ba roness von Zeiber formerly prima don- na soprano of Sousas Concert Com pany." She sang at the fair, and hur- ried to the Thalia, thinking that she would be in time for her part. She was about fifteen minutes late, and next day when she called at the box office for her weeks salary she was handed $20, and politely informed that she had been fined $10 for being late the previ- ous night.
 She protested, but the management was firm, and the Baroness left in high dudgeon. She placed the matter in the hands of collector. but repeated ap- plications by him failed to bring forth the s10. The Baroness Is determined to pet the S10 if DOSSible and to-day she will file a suit in the Justices court against Schwartz and will apply for writ of attachment. Manager Schwartz laughs at the threats of the Baroness, and if she brings suit interesting devel- opments are promised.

uWASHINGTON" HIS TEXT. Rev. E. B. Cherington Delivers { Powerful Sermon on Our First
 Presidnpt

Rev. F. B. Cherington's sermon last evening at Plymouth Congregational Church was on George Washington. In part, he said: "The men who headed the revolution were not wild, hare-bra1ned fanatics in chronic rebellion against es- tablished order because it is order, but men who in any age, and under any cir deliberate reasoning and reasonable men. Look at them. John Hancock, the court ly, dignihed, large -brained man of affairs. Samuel Adams, the earnest, fearless, broad-minded statesman and splendid or ator. John Adams, orator, statesman and diplomatist. Robert Morris, the magnif1- cent financier. Benjamin Franklin, phi losopher, statesman, diplomatist, fountain of wise counSels, source of unfa1llng stlm- ulation to the fiagging energies of patriots in their darkest hours. Thomas Jefferson, brilliant, farseeing statesman strong Tn all the qualities aSnation needs Tn times or sorest stress. Patrick Henry, whose fiery elouuence was like bugle blast that stirs an army for battle. There were still oth- ers men whom the heroic times developed into giants to meet great needs, clvll ana military. These all made company Of men among whom small men would speedily display their littleness with ire trievable fatality. Yet this man Washing ton, by his singular balance of qualities. and more than all by the overmastering force of his moral character, stood among them for eight years the acknowledged chieftaIn over all, by the divine right Of inborn royalty.
 ''He was in the profoundest sense re- ligious Not In narrow sectarian sense, but in that deeper and grander way or cherishing unwavering faith in God as the fountain of all righteousness. the source of all goodness, justice and truth, and in dedicating his whole life unreservedly to the service of that God In his farewell address at the close of his public life, he announced the principles that had guided him steadily all through his career: Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and nor ality are indispensable supports

FAVORED BECAUSE
 IT WILL DO GOOD.
This Movement if Well Con- ducted Will Be Benefit
 to the State.

INSURANCE COMMISSIONER A. J. CLUNIE-I favor the proposition be-
 cause I consider it will do good to the State, and any and all things that have for an object the benefiting of the State suit me. I love California and I am always pleased to aid in any and all movements having for their objects the advancement and prosperity of its peo- pie. I do not look on this as being a movement gotten up by one man or a body of men for selfish motives, but rather by those having the best inter- ests of the entire State at heart. conse- Quently I favor it, as already said, because I believe 1t will do all of us good. We have a great State and one that every man living in should be just ly proud of A emi-centennial enter tainment on broad scale and one that the whole people may unite in must be productive of good. I will, in my humble capacity as a Californian, aid

means learn of the great advantages of investing in a State that stands sec ond to none in the Union for a re- turn on prudently invested capital. The discovery of gold and the productive ness of the soil of the State have in the past done great deal for this Coast, in fact they are what brought the entire Coast into prominence. California is now known all over the globe as being the greatest producer of gold in the world. What we now want is to con- vince the capitalists that we can pro duce other things besides gold and sil- yer. An exposition. or whatever else may be deemed advisable to have on this occasion, cannot but attract atten- ton sufficient to be heralded all over the earth, at all events to such coun- tries as we may reasonably expect to be excited by the fact. The Call, in this, as in all other matters which tend to benefit the people, deserves the con- mendation of all
The San Francisco call., 1898-02-21

the exposition will do a great deal of good for this city and the entire State. All that is needed is that the rairoad make a special rate during the exposi- tion, and I feel positive that this city will have more visitors in 1900 than 1t has ever had. During the next two years there will be many hundreds of thousands of people who will go to Alaska, and we shall want the same number to take their places. The only way to get them is to attract them here by means of an exhibition, and once they see our products and enjoy our beautiful climate they will make ar engagements to stay. I favor the plan advocated by The Call and think that every citizen should help to make the proposed exposition a possibility.
The San Francisco call., 1898-02-21
SHOULD MADE A GREAT SUCCESS

The proposition of The Call to hold an exposi- ton in this city in 1900 commemorate the fteth anniversary of California's admission into the Union should be carried out. Its features should represent not only all the Eastern States and Ter
 ritores but the countries adjoining the Pacific Ocean It's scheme should include exhibits from Mexico and the western republics of Central and South America; and why not also Australia, China and Japan2 In 1900 the Klondike mining region will be pouring out its golden treasures, and its population will have people from all parts of the world. No greater better attraction than the exposition could be devised to secure the invest ment n our State of the fortunes in this new Fl Dorado. Not only this, but it could be made the means of hastening commercial develop ment and securing to California the population and trade which her great resources justify. The success of the Midwinter Fair is but earnest of what could be accomplished by the united effort of our people. The holding of the Paris Exposition in 1900 should be objection to the exposition here On the contrary, 1t would tend to excite in- ,terest in our exposition. There should be real
 conflict for many who go to Paris would also here while those who cannot spare the time expense necessary to visit the Paris Exposition would be glad to attend our exposition. The semi centennial exposition should be made great suc- cess WILLIAM F. HERRIN.
