The San Francisco call., 1898-03-05

Governor Budd has taken the first step for a general celebration of Cali fornia's Jubilee of Statehood. Hereto fore the wish of the State has been outspoken and unanimous, and the en- coura cement of neighboring States has been freely offered, but now the Cover nor has asked for their cooperation and, judging by previous well-wishers, there will be no lack of response ard no possibility of dissatisfaction with the replies.
 Governor Budd has prepared a commit nication. which he will send to all the States of the Union which have been admitted to Statehood since California S entry in 1850. He asks that the Gov ernors addressed appoint commission CTS to represent their States, and that the Mayors of big cities be asked to follow their example. His letter is as follows: ~ .ooo
 ID his. FxceIIency, William A. Richards, Governor of Wyoming-Sir: The admis- sion of California to the Union as state September g., 1850, was the first notable historic event in the American oeVeiop- ment of that vast section of country
 
 unbroken sweep of territory from ocean +o ocean. The consequences of the event and the almost coincident discovery or gold were momentous. The attention or daring. enterprising men of all parts of the Union. and nearly all parts of the world. was attracted to this coast, and at once began that splendid, romantic and arduous work of empire building which in fifty years has made the whole region from the Rocky Mountains to the sea the most marvellous theater or industrial en- terprise known to history.
 The ffftieth anniversary of an event so important in itself and so fruitful of mag nificent consequences merits a commem- oration of more than ordinary dignity and magnitude. The celebration should not be left to a single State or city. All the wide region of territory annexed to the Union at the same time with California by the treaty with Mexico, all of the vast section allied with California by reason of similarity of mineral resources, and all the great States that in the last fifty years have gained admission to the Union because of an increase of population ac- Cuired by the western movement Of hardy men, stimulated by the earlier rush of pioneers to California. should unite in the task Of fitly celebrating an occasion mem orable in the history of all.
 An industrial exposition will afford the most appropriate means of celebrating the emi-centennial of a people whose de- velopment has been almost wholly in- dustrial. Moreover, such an exposition would be not commemorative only, but educational and inducive as well. It

it assume such an aspect as to be capa- ble of winning feminine esteem, is no simple matter. All that the educated snake of these degenerate times can do is to coil unpleasantly and swallow rabbit whole. hissing at intervals and darting a forked tongue. The human snake is merely boneless mortal who ties himself in knots, but would fall far short of filling the bill.
 Another obstacle presents itself. It is accepted that the costumes of Adam and Eve were not elaborate. Even aft CT they had developed to the figleaf stage much was lacking which would now be considered desirable. The anomaly of draping in cloth lady and gentleman who antedated the most primitive loom impresses itself at once even upon the n-profesSional mind. The theme of the play does not need to be explained, for it follows closely the story as told in Genesis. Nor does there appear occasion here to set forth that the object in view is the eleva- tion of the stage.
 It may be said in all fairness that the verse in which the aspirations of the reverend dramatist have found expres- sion is not of a high order. The last Of it may be taken as a sample. This pertains to the sorry instant when the pair are driven from the garden, Adam saying to Eve:
 ''Then cheer thee, my fair, my tender bride: Hence let us go, walking side by side, Joined in all the conflicts of a varied life. faithful husband and true and loving
 wife,
 Til the voice of him who hath this life given. Shall call home to his sweet rest in
 heaven"
 (Exit Adam and Eve while the curtain falls.)
 Mr. Friedlander, as an expert, recog- niZes much of excellence in the effort, but the weak spots also impress him. He realizes that the electric imitation of the creation Of the light which at di- vine command shed it's benign rays over the newly made world would make a hit. He thinks the animals would, too, especially in the later scenea in which they are to be strewn deceased about the stage, but he sees no way to overcome the obstacles before mentioned. In his opinion, the work of the Rev. Mr. Rus. sell is better adapted to reading. It could be illustrated by pictures thrown on a screen, but it can't be twisted to fit the exigency of artistic requirement as stage managers and property men understand it.
 The author is now resident of Napa, but formerly lived in this city, where he has many friends.

One Fault to Be Found With "The Drama
 of Eden"
Some Difficulty in Arraying Adam and Eve in Suit
 able Costume.
The Rev. Russell Writes a Play whereby He Hopes to Ele-
 vate the Stage.

Manager Friedlander is somewhat puzzled about a play of which he has the manuscript. In boring over it he has burned midnight oil in large quan- titles. At least he would have burned this sort of oil had his apartments not been equipped with facilities for the use of gas. These statements, although true and necessary, get a little ahead of the story.
 Rev. A. M. Russell has written play. It is moral and elevating, having been devised in the periods between the writing of sermons. He calls it ''The Drama of Eden." It is evident that the gentleman has been anxious to follow the Biblical account, circumstance which, however commendable, has led to difficulty. It sets forth the life of the original pair, their love-making, their being fooled by tempter, and the mu- tual giving away to a mad passion for apples.
 There are three acts and thirteen scenes, some of them striking. The characters, aside from an angel chorus, are not numerous, of course, because at that time the entire population would have constituted a limited cast. To make up for this unavoidable deficiency the animal kingdom has been freely drawn upon. There are to be all man ner of beasts grouped about the stage when the curtain goes up on FThe Drama of Eden." Herein is an initial difficulty. No modern theater is equipped with a menagerie. MT. Fried lander finds himself dismayed by the fact that a principal speaking part has been given to the serpent. Of course the serpent did have considerable to say, but to train the modern serpent to become conversational, or to make

The Auditor Defends His Actions Before the
 Supervisors.
Dr.. RottanZi Thinks That the Mayor Should Do More
 Work
A Warm Time Expected Before the Next Meeting of the
 Board.

Auditor Frederick and Supervisor Rottanzi, chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board of Supervisors, "tcok a fall out of Mayor Phelan at the meeting of the committee yester- day when the question of threatened deficit in the municipal funds came up.
 Mayor Phelan had charged that the Auditor and Treasurer Widber had vio- lated the law in honoring demands of the school department in excess of the amounts allowed by the one-twelfth act
 He also stated that the deficit would be large, and that the responsibility rested with the officials named.
 T want to say to you gentlemen" re- marked the Auditor, that my books do not, up to the present moment, show any deficit. We simply anticipate that there will be deficit if the bills con- tinue to come in at the present rate. The Mayor and his adviser, Counselor Murphy Go the contrary notwithstand- ing, there need be no deficit if the Su- pervisors will agree to cut down ex- penses. When the United States Gov ernment is out of funds all public work is suspended pending another appropri- ation. I see no reason why the Su- pervisors should not stop all street work for the present.
 AS matter of fact, all Mayor Phe- Ian seems to care about is to make trouble for others. He pays little or no attention to the duties of his own office, and spends bis time annoying others He has turned his typewriter loose on me-
 T don't think that would do," said Supervisor RottanZi. referring to the stopping of street work. "The people demand that the board be progressive. do not think the public would be sat- isfied with the retrenchment policy. I wish to say, however, that the Mayor is endeavoring to shift responsibility from himself to the shoulders of the Supervisors, and I propose for one to see that the responsibility is placed where it properly belongs. If the May or were to give more attention to the conduct of the municipal departments imagine he would find his time fully occupied"
 It was decided to await the commit nication of the Auditor before taking action.

This is the edict of the Board of Health. and it means that war to the knife will henceforth be on between the Federal and the State quarantine au- thorities. pr. Blue and Dr. Rosenau will now be in line for solar plexus blows from such an aggregation of State talent as Dr. John Malcolm William son. pr. Gerald J. Fitzgibbons, Dr. Henry H. Hart, Dr. Aloysius O'Brien and Dr. Edmund Hill, all of whom will be ably seconded by Chief of Police Lees and his merry men.
 Another case of sickness was dis covered on the Occidental and Oriental Steamship Company's Doric last Thursday evening, and the agents of the vessel ignored the State officials, but notified Dr. Rosenau. The latter, without any warrant, went into the States jurisdiction and took the sick man and his companion to the quarantine station at Angel Island on the Government tug George M. Stern berg. When Dr. Hill heard of this he immediately went to the mail dock and stopped the work of discharging the Doric. He put some of the health off, cers in charge of the ship, and refused to allow anybody to come ashore or
