THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, MARCH 28, 1898. D & P58 OUR GOLDEN WEDDING. HE semi-centennial anniversary of the admssion of California Into the Union will be celebrated in a | - way that will cause the memory | g8 € Midwin‘er Fair to grow dim in ‘gg the mind of old and young. This Younger child of the popular fancy is to be carried out on so vast a plan that its predecessor will pale into insignifi- cance. That this is not mere talk is shown by tre fact that as each step is taken towa'd securing the exposition the enthusfasm grows in proportion Not only is there ample time in whlc}; to make pans and carry them out on & grand scale, but the men selected by Mayor Prelan to do this form one of the best bodies for that purpose that could be found, the name of every man being prima facie evidence that the branch :ssigned to him will receive the most careful consideration. The time is too early fo: to be made known as th, o; ::\cy:m;;l?r;s; the fa°t that premature publication, in the opinion of the committee, would do more harm than good. That they will do honor to the originators the person- nel of the committee is a sufficient guarantee. 1 think the suggestion of The C: is excellent,” saild Supervisor Celinl?)lri yesterday, ‘“and that paper deserves much credit for the manner in which it has proceeded to urge the idea of a cel- ebration. It is not only fitting that we should celebrate the fiftieth anniver- sary E)f the admission of the State into the Union, but it will be found in the long run a profitable undertaking. I belleve the matter will be safe in the hands of the men his Honor the Mayor has selected to act on the committee; they are all men ¢f experience, and men who have shown in the past that they take a justifiable pride in doing all they can for the advancement of the State. Looking at the matter from a patriotic standpoint, here is an excellent chance for us to shine.” The viticultural branch of the cele- bration will rest in the hands of Charles | Bundschu, whose work in behalf of the public as a director of the Merchants’ Association is a matter of record. He is warm in his praise of the idea of a grand exposition and will do all in his power to advance viticultural interests when the time for action comes. “In my opinion,” he stated yester- day, “this fair will mean much for the State. We can make success of it on a ence gained during the time of the Mid- winter Fair. I shall do my utmost to see that all the viticultural countries are represented. My heart goes with this movement. The Call has proved by the capable manner in which it has managed thi good leader for the people to stand be- hind and fight their way to recognition in the business marts of the world.” Vot only is the committee enthusias- tic it 11 receive ought to revive even a faint heart and flagging footsteps. The support of seve of the States of the great West has been promised already, and the othe will doubtless fall into when called upon. California is on tion.

GOTHAM WOULD GAZE AND WONDER. Some Ideas on Amusement Features Con- tributed by Manager S. H. : Friedlander. Perhaps it might be deemed too early yet to say anything about the plans of the proposed semi-centennial celebration, but this can hardly be said of generalities. Publication of the fact that we are going to have features of vast interest in the various branches can do nothing but awaken enthusiasm in the public mind. To me has been accorded the handling of the amusement branch of the un- dertaking, and I make bold to say that it shall be the effort of my life to give the people features of interest never seen in the State before—I might safely say that many of them have never been on this side of the Atlantic. And all this is to be taken as entirely ex- clusive of the theaters, all to be outdoor amusements. From Paris di- rect will come some ideas on parades that would make even the Gothamites open their eyes. Many of these amusement features had been prepared for the proposed Golden Jubilee, and they will come in handy enough now.—S. H. Friedlander in an interview.

TULARE, March 26.—D. J. F. Reed, Mayor of Tulare, was asked for an expression of his views in regard to the semi-centennial 0! in 1900. Mayor Reed is one of those St e e progressive, liberal, energetic and level-headed officials whose influence in a community is easily recognized. He is a prosperous stock dealer and fruit farmer, and has done valiant ser- vice for Tulare in procuring right-of- way in this district for the Valley Road. % Sald he: Let me assure you that I am heartily glad to express my senti- ments upon this matter through the medium of The Call. For clean jour- nalism and abundant enterprise com- mend me to The Call. I cheerfully in- dorse the suggestion for an exposition in 1900 on the lines suggested by The Call, and feel sure that Tulare will ren- der any and every assistance to insure the success of the proposed celebra- tion. It should be an exposition worthy of the great State of California, and should include not only California, but the entire Pacific Coast. Our combined efforts should be able to make it one of the most imposing events of the century, for nowhere on earth is a more delightful clim> where the resources are so rich as in our Golden State. The manifold advantages of a home in California are so numerous as to require but an enumeration to impress upon the minds of our visitors from the East the fact that here is the most favored spot upon the globe. Thousands within the next decade will seek and create homes in Califor- nia, and many of these will be induced to come by the aid of a judicious pre- sentation of our varied advantages, which can be done so successfully by the proposed exposition. _Exhibits and expositions which demonstrate the rapid steps of our ma- terial progress are among the most potent of advertisements and are far- reaching in effect. Thousands would visit the State at that time, who would receive an ob- ject lesson, and many would become residents and others missionaries for our Golden State. Of course I would favor holding_the exposition in Tulare, the railroad center of the San Joaquin Valley. You can quote me as enthusi- astically in favor of the exposition, and anxious to aid in any way possible. IS FEASIBLE AND PRACTICABLE. Next Legislature Should Make Suitable Financial Provision for the Event. STOCKTON, March 26.—Mayor Inglis approves of The Call's suggestions concerning the semi-centennial exposition most he.rtily. “I do not see how any loyal Califor- nian can feel otherwise,” said the Mayor this morning. “The project ap- peals to us from both patriotic and business principles. . The ;lan as con- ceived by T1ae Call is both feasible and practicable. Coming as i+ will on the dawn of a new century when the en- tire world is given up to a celebration of the achievements of the most nota- ble century in written history, it will be easy to divert the attention of the sight-seers in Paris to the wonderful new land which was touched by the hand of Anglo-Saxon civilization less than a half century ago. California anl the Pacific Coast will never have such an opportunity to show her won- ders as then, and the people of the Coast will reap a thousand fold blessing in the new capital and high class immigration which will be attracted to our midst. By that time the Valley road will have reached San Francisco, our rivers and harbors will have been improved and a hundred other great developments made which are now planned. San Francisco is the natural location for such an event, and not only the Pacific Coast but the entire inter-mountain country should join hands and begin working at once for the success of the exposition. Work is what tells a .d there is no better time to begin than now. I belleve that the coming Legislature should make suitable financial recognition of the coming event and the matter should be put in presentable shape at once and a defi- nite plan of work be outlined. Of course many of our municipal and county bodies will change hands before then, but the ground work can be laid. “There is one matter I would urge upon the interior of the State, and that is that petty jealousies of the State's metropolis should be laid aside. San Francisco is not California, nor California San Francisco, and those who seek to alienate the interior from supporting the enterprising people of that city are no friends of the State. San Joaquin Valley cannot move forward without helping San Francisco and that city cannot be prosperous without the interior reaping some of the benefits. You can put me down as a friend of the semi-centennial exposition, as I believe that from whatever point viewed it is the one great enterprise now in view that should enlist the support of every public spirited citizen of the Golden West.” FROM A COMMERCIAL STANDPOINT. ] \\‘:“w lim It Would Prove of Inestimable Benefit to the Whole State. N, March 26.—The Call’s proposition for a proposed semi-centen- AUBUR fiftieth milestone of California’s statehood is a nial exposition to mark the capital idea, and should meet with the approval of every patriotic citizen. Outside the beautiful sentiment thus expressed, it will prove of incalculable benefit to the State from a business standpoint. No better opportunity could be found in which to advertise to the outside world the State’s many advantages, commercially and other- wise. Placer County, with its wonder- ful diversity of interests—mining, fruit growing, lumbering and farming— would certainly be the gainer by such | an exposition. J. W. MORGAN, Mayor, Auburn, Cal. ALL THE ESSENTIALS ARE HERE. Concentrated Action Now Will Assurey a Grand Success for the Semi=Centennial. Hon. T. L. Carothers, Mayor of Ukiah City, Cal., says: The Midwin- ter Fair was of exceeding benefit to our Golden State in demonstrating te the people of the East and elsewhere the advantages of our delightful cli- mate, and in calling their attention to the wonderful products and resources of the State. But, in my opinion, such an exposition in 1900 as suggested by The Call would far exceed in good re- sults the Midwinter Fair, owing to the vastness of the undertaking, and the greater and larger scale upon which it would be conducted. I belteve that not only California has an interest in the success of the proposed exposition, but that the entire Pacific Coast should use every endeavor to make the affair a grand success. I believe that we in California can hold an exposition such as would be a serious rival to the one to be held in Paris in 1900. We have the resources, the products and the climate, which are necessary essentlals to the entertainment of strangers to our shores, not only temporarily, but to induce them to make our State their home. What we need now is concen- trated action, from the preser.t moment until the closing of the proposed ex- position, and the affair cannot fail of being a success. The Semi-Centennial Celebration of the admission of California to the Union could not be more appropriately observed than by such an exposition as proposed. All sectional strife and divisional lines should be ignored in the observance of our golden wedding to the Union, and every man, be he a Native Son or an adopted eciti- zen, should use his best endeavors for the success of the exposition. I am heartily in favor of the Exposition, and hope that the most sanguine expec« tations of the promoters may be reali zed. “IT WILL BE THE PROPER THING Gilroy’s Mayor Tells of the Advantages That Would Accrue to the State. GILROY, March 26.—Mayor M. Ca sey of Gilroy has the following to say concerning the semi-centennial exposition in 1900, as suggested by The Call: “There is a great deal of work in store for those who undertake it, but the promoters and the State will be re- munerated a hundred fold. I am in favor of any demonstration which will keep California to the fore, and my opinion is that an exposition in 1900 will be just the proper thing. “We have already experienced the advantages that the Midwinter Fair accomplished in advertising our State, and I say, keep at it- California has always been a point of attraction, beckoning tourists hither from afar, but there has been no place where they could be taken and shown all the re- | sources of this glorious State. “My opinion is that every county in the State should take an active part in this exposition and thereby make it a grand success. “It has always been demonstrated that nothing is too vast for California, - and I believe there is a great future in store for her if we do not allow our- selves to grow indolent and lazy. We must all work in harmony and together to accomplish the best results. The plan is a grand conception, and I hope it will be pushed through to a finish.” M. CASEY, Mayor of the City of Gilroy. COL. JOHN W. McKENZIE. View, lies the paralyzed form. of one of Uncle the military his- ars out the assertion that none of the thousands of American soldiers distinguished himself for valor more than did Sergeant John Out at 120 Broad street, Ocean Sam’'s bravest men. This is not putting it any too strong, as tory of the Mexican war be: W. McKenzie of Duncan’s famous battery at the battles of Palo Alto, Buena Vista and in front of the walls of the City of Mexico. It was he who fired the first shot at the battle of Palo- Alto, and remained at his gun all through the entire engagement, although slightly wounded in the left side. Similar service was performed by him at the battle of Buena Vista, but it was at the battle of the City of Mexico that he crowned himself with glory. Here every other man attached to his battery was shot down and he alone remained at the gun and kept pumping shot and shell into the swarthy hides of the Mexicans until victory was declared. During the heat of the fight he with none to aid him in handling his.gun loaded and fired in his own time with- out receiving command from any person, for the good reason that there was none to give him orders. Commissioned and non-commissioned officers and comrades were shot down, but brave McKenzie stood at his gun, stepping over the dead bodies of his late companions as he maneuvered his piece, taking dead- 1y aim at the enemies who were sending bullets about his head with the rapidity of falling hail. After the war he settled in this city an the office from September, 1854, to July, 1855, Then he was appointed -chief clerk to the City Marshkal and property clerk. He filled the position of Chief of Police, and from this position he was appointed Chief Jailor under Sheriff Doane. Gov- ernor Low appointed him a notary public and his commission was renewed by Governor Haight. At the time of the escape of the Brotherto Sheriff Adams dismissed all of the old jailers and placed McKenzie in charge of that place. He held this position under Sheriffs McKibben and Connolly and during his service as Chief Jailer ‘several noted murderers, including the noto- rious Wheeler, who strangled his sister-in-law, were executed. He had charge of the House of Correction for two years, and served three years as adjutant of the guard under General McComb at San Quentin. In all of the many positions which he filled he was true and faithful to the people.

Captain Perkins’ Signal Corps Is the Crackerjack of the Local Guard. Review of the Inspections in This City — The Cadet Corps Has Redeemed Itsolf. Major-General Dickinson returned to this city last week and discussed a plan to go south, intending to leave here on the 7th of May and be present during the in- spection of companies of the Third Brig- ade and those of the First Brigade and the inspection of the naval divisions at the several points on the southern coast. One purpose of his presence in that sec- tion is to use his influence to erase the sectional line north and south of the Te- | hachapi which has had much to do in i past years in preventing the Guard of this | State from being a unit. Upon this visit he will be accompanied by as many of his | staff as can accompany him, and it is i probable that Colonel James F. Smith of the First Infantry will meet him in San Diego on the 16th of May, when the divi- | sion of the naval militia will be inspect- ed and there is to be a cruise on the Pin- ta. The vacancy on the division staff caused by the acceptance of the resignation of ». Alva Watt, judge-advocate, has not yet | been filled, but the position has been ten- dered to J. J. Dwyer, a well-known at- torney of this city. He was formerly a member of the old Third Regiment. The uniform board met on Saturday and opened bids for caps, but owing to some informality in the matter of pre- senting the figures by one bidder decision was reserved until to-morrow. The bids range from 2 cents and a fraction to $1 25 for each cap. Six separate demands for cadet rifles for the cadet corps have been made, but in each case no heed has been paid to these requests. By general orders from general head- quarters Frank de L. Carrington, cayp tain U. S. A., inspector of the N. G. C., will act in conjunction with each brigade inspector and examine all unserviceablo ordnance, ~quartermaster’s stores, uni- forms, etc. He is appointed a board of survey and will report recommendations as to such disposition as will be for the best interest of the State. The same orders permit the use of stamps or fac-similes of signatures to be used in forwarding or transmitting all papers which do not require the personal action or approval of the officer on the contents. It also directs that the saddle ! cloths for the staff corps shall be dark blue with an edging of gold lace one inch wide; in the corner shall be the insignia as prescribed for the collar of the officer’s undress coat, omitting the letters N. G. C.; for all other officers the cloth shall be of the same color with the number of the regiment in enamel leather figures, two and one-haif inches long, on each flank corner, the edge to be trimmed with enamel leather, edge and figures to be ot the color of the respective arm of the service to which the officer belongs. THE LOCAL INSPECTIONS. l A review of the inspections in the First | Infantry Regiment®that were closed last Week shows that taken as a Whole the eleven companies inspected much better advantage than the majority of them did the year previous. is a question as to which company made the best all-around showing, and military | men are in doubt as to whom to award | the crown of laurel, one-half inclining to Company K, Captain Cunningham, and Ehe\ o‘lher half to Company M, Captain )’ Neil. did exceedingly well, yet each was at fault in some matters and the faults charged against one company balanced the faults charged against the other. It will require the decision of the inspector to determine which one of these com- panies is entitled to the honor of being the best. The Cadet Corps made a showing that was very creditable and will win for it many points. The band, to use a current phrase, was “all right,” the cavalry might have made a better showing, but the signal corps was up to the standard, that of excellence, while the staff was as fine a show as good cloth, well-fitting clothes and accompanying gold lace could make the wearers appear. The report of that much of the clothing is unfit for service and that the uniforms ordered cannot come too soon. As to other details they will appear in the report. Having concluded in San Francisco except as to one company, the inspector went to work inspecting the companies of the Fifth Regiment. THE NATIONALS. The inspection of Companies C and G (the Nationals) was held last Monday night in the Ellis-street armory in the presence of quite a number of people. While the two companies, G, Captain Sut- liffe, first inspected, and then C, Captain Dumbrell, made a creditable showing there was not, from a military standpoint, the bearing and vim for which these companies were noted a few years ago. Prior to falling in there was some mis- understanding, possibly because the men had not received positive instructions on the subject as to how they should wear canteens and haversacks. There was ap- parent lack of instruction as to whether the men should wear the canteen slung over the haversack or wear it on the op- posite side. The men asked each other and some of the officers were asked and after considerable talk the men appeared with the canteen on the right hip and the haversack on the left. There was but one company that during the inspections demonstrated that it knew how to wear the canteen, and that was the signal corps. The men of that body carried the haversack on the left, the web belt hold- ing down the straps and the canteen over the haversack, but the back strap only held by the belt. There was a lack of uniformity in C and G in the matter of scabbards, some of the men wearing them over the haversack and some under. These are matters of minor detail, but they create confusion and are proof that there is mot enough attention paid to minor matters, many of them essential to the proper make-up of the soldier. The companies drilled In close order, Company C adding _loading and firing. The companies made several breaks by reason of the fact that only a portion of the men when movinfi as platoons could gear the orders of the commanding of- cer. THE SIGNAL CORPS. The inspection of the signal corps of the Second Brigade, Captain P. J. Per- kins commanding, at the Ellis-street ar- mory on Wednesday night brought to a close in this city the inspection of the lo- cal companies except that of Company B, Captain Fillmer. There were pres- ent, as there always is, when this crack- erjack corps has anything unpsual on hand, a large number of ladies and their escorts, for this corps excels in person- nel, precision in carrying out the mili- tary law, drilling and in signaling, and the ladies believe that it is their duty to encourage the men by their presence. Not only do the ladies think so, but many of the old-time guardsmen, who since retirement seldom take Interest in the affaiss of the guard, ¢ it a busi- ness to yisit this corps when there is an showed to | There | All admit that both companies | the inspector will show | | inspection. There were a number of such | present on Wednesday night, as well as | active members. Among_the spectators were Brigadier-General Warfleld, Colonel Geisting, Colonel Frank Sumner (retired), Major Evans, Major Schmitt, Captains | C. P. Le Breton and Woods (retired) and Captain Cunningham of Company K, First Infantry. The corps, all present put two, one be- ing in attendance on a court in Santa | Rosa as a witness and the other being | sick, presented a fine soldierly appear- ance, with one exception and that was | the fatigue hats, which detract from | the make-up of the soldiers. Still the | men were not at fault, they were ordered | to wear them and they had to put on | what the State furnished. They were properly sized, their uniforms were, as they always are, exceedingly neat, the men wore their haversacks and canteens as they should, which was not done gen- erally during the present inspections, | their carbines and revolvers were in first- | class condition, but the revolvers did not | meet the approval of the brigade inspec- | tor, Major Jansen, who remarked “still | the same old revolvers.” It is likely that | he will recommend that the men be armed with the new pattern. The drill- ing was in platoon movements and fir- ings, and each was so perfect that it won the hearty commendations of spectators as well as the inspector. Captain Car- | rington was not present at this inspec- | tion. TROOP A, CAVALRY. Troop A, Captain Burnett, was inspect- ed on Wednesday night by the brigade in- spector, assisted by Captain Carrington. There were fifty-seven present and three absent, but the men did not make as good an appearance as some other branches of the guard. There were quite a number of the men without revolvers, but that was not their fault as they did not have them to form part of the ac- couterments. The inspection revealed the fact that there are twenty-two re- volvers short, and it is likely that the bondsmen of the late Captain Jenks, who was the commander of the troop before the present commanding officer, will be called upon to either have the weapons restored or their value made good. There | was drill in close order and saber drill, but as the company has many new men | | in it who have not yet mastered the in- | | tricacies of drill with carbine and saber, the showing did not come up to the | standard. . THE REGIMENTAL ARMORER. The room of the regimental armorer, C. M. Sheldon, in the Page-street ar- | mory, was also inspected by the brigade inspector, and in it he found a complete outfit for refilling the shells that are used in rifle practice. The armorer finds much of his spare time taken up in the work of refilling the shells, and that, in addition to his other duties, keeps him pretty busy. THE CADET COMPANY. The cadet company attached to the First Regiment of infantry, which at the previous inspection was without excep- tion the worst to show up, has redeemed jtself. Captain Bartlett upon assuming command a few months since expressed a determination to wipe out the stain that had been cast upon the organization by the report of the inspecting officer, and the showing at the regimental armory last Monday afternoon proved that he had done much to carry out his determi- nation. In the first place all the boys who were too small or physically too weak to undergo the ordeal of drill with regulation old-time rifles instead of cadet rifies, such as this corps ought to be pro- vided with, have been weeded out and a better class of boys have been substi- futed; then the corps has been recruited up to within one of the maximum, name- Iy 102, but for want of uniforms there Were but 5 in line. Before the inspection by Major Jansen the members of the earps were critically examined by Colonel Smith of the First, and after that they ted by the brigade inspector were inspected by i TaiTts Captain Carrington. tnl-lx.lgt halg been poin‘%tout in the report of in the ranks was very commendable. The corps was drilled in extended order, the movements were well executed, and the young men were complimented by the in- Epector for being the only company that drilled by bugle sounds. There was an exemplification of the bayonet arill by a picked squad, and it was highly com- mended. It is likely that the report of the inspector will show excellent in almost everything. THE NAVAL MILITTA. As has already been announced Captain L. H. Turner, commanding the Naval Militia, has gone to Alaska on business connected with the settlement of an in- surance claim, and it was stated on Satur- day that he may be absent four months. Lieutenant-Commander Nerney, acting captain, on Saturday issued orders dis- continuing the practice of allowing visitors to go on board of the Marion, for the reason that there are not enough men on the vessel to accompany those who may wish to inspect the vessel. The ves- sel is now as if she were in actual war service, the same regulations as to the arming of the men on board, the standing of watches and boarding and leaving the ship being enforced. Yesterday a number of the men belong- ing to the two divisions were out on the bay for boat drill. While it was not an official drill it was for practice, for the men seem to be anxious to learn all they can, and, with that end in view, practice when they have an opportunity. The report from general headquarters places the numerical strength on the 1st of March of the militia at 414. At this time it is 421. The Pinta reached San Diego all right after a pleasant cruise, and the members of the division at that point took posses- sion. They are making preparations for the inspection and cruise on the 16th of ay. Tl’\,e division commander has issued an order that the officers of the Naval Militia shall hereafter report to division headquarters. VISALTA, March 26.—Company E of this city is on the eve of another election for captain, the present commander, Cap- tain Fred W. Ward, having declined to serve another term, owing to a rush of business matters. He has done remark- ably well in the past two years and has brought the company up to a position well in the front rank with any other company in the State. It is almost a settled fact that the next captain of the company will be George W. Stewart, the newly elected Register of the Land Office here. Every man in the company has signed a petition asking him to take the office. He was for several years an officer in the company. Colonel Hay of Fresno will be here on the 22d of April to conduct the annual in- spection of the local company. Captain Carrington of the regular army is also expected to be present. Colonel Stuart S. Wright was down from Fresno last night to confer with the officers of Company E in regard to prep- arations for placing the militia on a war footing. Private Samuel Hulen has passed ex- amination and has been recommended for promotion to corporal For the Wolfe Tone Monument Fund. The receipts of the St. Patrick’s day celebration amounted to $%6 50 and the expenditures were $674 15, leaving a bal- ance of $282 35 for the Wolfe Tone monu- ment fund. This financial resuit was re- ported at a meeting of the St. Patrick’s day convention held yesterday at the K. R. B. Hall. The proceeds of the celebra- tion were not as great as had been ex- pected, yet the entertainment provided was a gratifying success and the members of the convention felt that their duty had been done well. .
