HER FOOT SLIPPED.
Accident to Mile. Emerie at the
PEOPLES Palace.

Accident to Mile. Emerie at the
Peoples Palace.
The patrons of the Peoples Palace were
treated last night to an exciting event
that was not on the programme.
Silverne and Emerie. the Australian
marveis, give performance on the swing
ing bars which are suspended from the
ceiling about the center of the thester.
The lower rings are about u feet from
table which stands on the floor beneath
them.
Mile. Emerie was in the midst of her
performance when she met with an acct
dent. She had her left foot in one of the
rings and was bending back with her head
hanging down trying to put her right foot
into the other ring so that she could let go
her hold of the rope ard hang by the feet.
While doing this her left foot slipped out
of the ring and she fell, striking against
the table beneath.
There was a yell of dismay from the
audience, while several of the usbers
rushed forward and carried her behind
the scenes. A physician was hastily
summoned, who expressed an opinion that
she was only suffering from the shock
and would be aole to appear again to-
night. She had struck on the side of her
head, the blow stunning her for few
moments. Manager Clifton sent her home
in hack and allayed the excitement of
the audience by explaining that she was
only stunned by the fall

IN FLORA'S HOME.
Sunny Alameda's Gardens
Formally Admired.
A Unique Basket Picnic Carried Out
by the California State
Floral Society.

The outdoor meeting of the California
State Floral Society. which was held in
Alameda for the first time yesterday, was
universally voted to be the pleasantest
picnic that the organization has yet en-
joyed. g
When 1t was decided to hold the meeting
in Alameda, committee consisting of
Mrs. Stanley Stephenson. Mrs. SWEET and
Mrs. Mccartney was appointed and given
permission to make any arrangements
that seemed desirable. and most of the
party, when they arrived at Park-street
station, had not any idea what was to be-
the order of the days proceedings.
About fifty members and their friends
assem- bled, and under the guidance of the
committee were soon comfortably accom-
modated in a procession of buggies and
omnibuses. Then commenced what for
fOromaniacs was source of unDitigated
delight. The party was driven from gar
den to garden. some belonging to members
and others to residents of Alameda. who
had thrown their grounds open for the
occasion to the society.
Naturally, at every place. the fioricultur-
lists found something beautiful to admire
Mrs. Babeock. Mrs. Beel and Mrs. Stephen
sons gardens having been admired. the
party FlSllou Joseph a. Le0DarQ'S. and
aflerward went into raptures over the
wealth of orchids owned by John C. Sieg-
fried. Judge Waymire's strawberries were
seen with interest, and then the procession
of carriages drove through Mrs. A. A.
Cohen's place and on to Charles AMI
born's.
Although the heat was intense, the
members would have scorned to miss
single garden by remaining in the vehicles
at any of the stopping stages. Young and
old descended at each place and viewed all
there was TO be seen. aud that was gener-
ally good deal. BY 2:30 o'clock Mrs.
McCartney's home on Bay Farm Island
was reached. Here it was found that,
contrary TO the rules of the organization,
an ample lunch bad been provided. WAS
not this basket picnic?" asked the Wis
ltors. trying to look hurt and indignant.
But coffee and cooling drinks will go
long way, particularly on day like yes
terday, toward soothing the feelings OF
members who see the rules of their orgsni-
Zatlon outraged. and it was not long be-
fore Mrs. McCartnsy's hospitality was
done ample justice to.
Before o'clock every one was en- route
again with unabated energy. Mrs. Swett's
was the next place visited, and there again
the rules of the society were set at naught
by the production of icecream and cake.
Before the party drove on a number of
speeches weTe made. The president. E. J.
Wicksol, remarked that the outdoor meet
ings OF the society had shown a sort OF

A REMEDY NEEDED
The Wheels of Justice
Blocked.
Neglect of Duty of Prosecuting At
torney O'Keefe and His
Assistant.

When Police Court 2 opened for bust
ness yesterday morning at 10 o'clock there
was calendar containing about sixty
cases to be disposed of. Judge Conlan
took his seat on the bench punc;ually on
time, but neither Prosecuting Attorney
Stephen ]. O'Keefe nor his assistant, j.
Tobin, was present, which was by no
means unusual as far as the prosecuting
attorney at least is concerned.
The Judge after waiting for few min
utes gave vent to his Indignation. II re-
greet" said the judge. that neither the
prosecuting attorney nor his assistant is
present. l cannot be expected to act af
Judge, prosecuting attorney and assistant
prosecuting attorney of this court, and
measures must be taken to compel these
two officials to do their duty. Their neglect
is the means of blocking the business of
the court and causing unnecessary delay in
the disposition of cases. They knew there
was heavy calendar to-day and there is
no excuse for their absence"
Attorney Kelly offered to officiate in the
absence of the Prosecuting Attorney, and
with his assistance few of the cases
were disposed of, the balance being con-
tinued.
Besides the inconveniences in court
caused by the absence of the two officials,
people who called at the Prosecuting At
tornev's Office for warrants were o. course
unable to obtain them. They crossed over
to Police Court g. and all morning War
rant Clerk McKee's Office was crowded,
Judge Joachimsen and his warrant clerk
very properly raised a kick against the
rush of business through the derelctiOn
OF duty Of the officials of the other court
and there was hot time generally.
This Is not by any means the first time
that similar complaints have been made
against Prosecuting Attorney O'Keefe,
During bis absences his assistant has r.
conduct the prosecutions in court, and as
the latter cannot be in two places at one
time people who call for warrants have tn
walt Tor hours or go away without them.
others go to No. 3 court, which piles nm.
necessary work upon the shoulders of it's
obllging warrant clerk and gives the
Judge more than his share of cases to adj
Indicate upon.
Other Prosecuting Attorneys are gen.
orally to be found at their posts an hour
before the courts are opened for business
to make themselves acquainted with the
!acts oil the cases TO be heard. They are.
therefore. ready when court opens to make
motions for dlsmissals should the facts
warrant it. and by this means much valu-
able time is saved. On the other hand,
" keefe Is rarely present until after tine
court opens. He knows nothing OF the
facts of the cases, and it is no unusual
thing for several witnesses to be examined
and then he discovers there is nothing in
the case and moves for dismissal.
People who are growing about these
things say that man who draws $3.50 a
month from the city treasury, which is the
salary of a Prosecuting Attorney. should
attend strictly to his business, which, as
rule. does not occupy more than Two
hours daily. The assistant Prosecuting
Attorney draws $125 month. SO DetWeen
