Wednesday at the home or Jackson st. w
an informal reception, which was given for
all those interested in the children, and
particularly for the patrons of the nursery.
There was nothing in the nature OF exer-

presented by the little ones playing about
the rooms andporches was more than
pleasing, and especially to those who have
exerted their best efforts in establishing
the nursery. The enterprise started just
a year ago with only one room. TheDaugh-

very much felt. and any contributions from
the public will be more than appreciated by

INVENTED "HOTTENTOT FEET"
The Inventor Now in This City and Tells
Some of His Experiences

Basco and Roberts, the team of aero
bats at the Orpheum, are in many ways
the most famous in their line of busi-
ress. At the time when Abbey, Scho-
field & Grau We're arranging for the pro-
duction of Irma Kiralfy's America in
Chicago for q run during the Worlds
Fair they wanted vaudeville speciality
to introduce into the second act. AS
only one such specially was to be used
during the play that speciality had to
be, not only the best, but the very best
one obtainable. When this became
known among the vaudeville stars.
there was no end of applications, and of
the hundreds that applied the act of
basco and Roberts was selected, and for
fifty-six weeks, during the run of Amer
lea, which was in many respects the
greatest production this country has
ever seen, their act caused no end OF
laughter. They went with America to
the Olympia in London, where their
grotesque work on the trapeze was one
of the London attractions for long
time. for no such act had ever been at
tempted there. They were the first to
Introduce the trick piano, such as they
use nightly at the Orphcum. Mr.. Basco
originated what is known in the profess
sion as "Hottentot feet" sample pair
os which he wears at the close of his
act now at the Orpheum He got the
iiea one day while watching the big
monkey in Central park, New York,
and concluded to manufacture pair OF
feet that could be slipped over his own.
After many experiments he succeeded.
His next difficulty was to learn to walk
in such way as not to attract atten-
tion to his feet until he swung up on
the trapeze. The first night he appeared
in Hottentot feet he fell over himself
in making his entrance. and set Mr..
Roberts to laughing SO that he came
near loosing his grip on the trapeze and
falling to the floor But Mir. Basco pick
ed himself up and cautiously walked to
the trapeze. He says that he never
heard such roars of laughter as went up
from the audience as he swung up on
the trapeze and exposed the soles of his
Hottentot feet. After filling short
engagement in the East Basco and
Roberts so to London for three

AN EXCITING INCIDENT
DR.. Granville Mcgowan Attacked by an In
furiatcd Woman

An unfortunate incident which has
brought prominent physician of this
city into unpleasant notoriety. occurred
in the Creamerie restaurant at 3l3
South Broadway shortly before
o'clock yesterday afternoon. DIR. Gran
Vile Macgowan was eating his lunch at
a rear table when in rushed a stout
brunette about 35 years of age, whose
name is Mrs. Ella Robinson The
woman was armed with horsewhip
which she Immediately produced and
attempted to lay over DR.. Macgow-
ans shoulders Several blows were
struck blfore the aStonished physician
realized what was transpirng, when
he jumped to his feet and wrested the
weapon from the infuriated females S
hands. The incident was over in a few
moments, almost before anyone in the
place realized what was happening.
The woman made but few remarks. but
seemed in a highly excited and almost
hysterical condition. To a bystander
she said. "He insulted me, the scoun-
drel. Both parties left the restaurant
within few minutes, the woman being
led away, and the doctor proceeding to
his office a few steps distant.
DR.. Mcgowan is at a loss to account
for the actions of the woman, except
except upon the supposition that
she is insane. Mrs. Robinson comes
from San Francisco. where, it is
understood. she has begun proceedings
for divorce from her husband. She
has been under treatment by the doc
tor for some weeks, he merely pre-
scribing for nervous weakness. The
trouble probably lies deeper and may be
the result of her ailments affecting her
mind. causing hysterical and violent
attacks. She resides at the Wellington
on Third street and had not been seen
by Dr. Mcgowan for something over
week. Upon her last visit to him she
stated that she was feeling better and
intended to start for home in day or
two.
The trouble with her husband seemed
TO have affected her mind, and she ex-
pressed herself as in constant fear lest
he should harm her or her little boy
When Mrs. Robinson said good-by on
the occasion of her last visit she
thanked the doctor for his kindness and
departed Having not seen the lady
since. there seems no other way to ac-
count for her attack except upon the
grounds of temporary insanity.

BONlFACES AT SANTA BARBARA
The Hotel 1en Enjoy Themselves at the
Floral Festival

SANTA BARBARA, April 16Thc
| members of the Hotel Mems Mutual
Benefit association of the United States
and Canada reveled in fairyland yester-
day. They arrived early in the morn
ing and enjoyed every hour since. First
there were drives to the principal points
of interest, including the old mission
and the beach. Some ventured out on
the channel to visit the United States
flagship Pennsylvania. The hotel men
were lavish during the forenoon in
their praise of the beauty of Santa Bar
lara S flowers and gardens, but in the
afternoon they We're fairly driven into
ecstacies of delight over the splendidly
decorated vehicles and their charming
occupants. the flower -caparisoned
horses and riders, the fragrant floral
floats and other features of the Channel
City's annual festival. The hotel Ineu
are jolly lot of fellows. and they as
sisted materially to make the occasion
a pleasant one for those who partici-
pated in the parade. The battle of flow
ers was a feature of captivating inter-
est, and exclamatio of 'Oh" and "Ah"
were frequent as the jolly contest pro-
ceeded. One indiscreet gentleman
asked another what it would cost to
have such a show in New York city,
whereupon he was sQuelched by an
other who wanted to know if he thought
the residents of that city billionaires.
After the floral parade the gentlemen
and ladies of the hotel excursion en-
joyed themselves as seemed best, and at
ii o'clock they started for another day
of joy at Pasadena and Redlands. AS
their tour progresses the more emphatic
becomes the assertion that they can
never half tell of the beauties and Won
ders of Southern California. Although
the approximate expense of the enter
tainment of this party of bonifaces will
be fully $4,000 during their stay in this
state, it becomes more and more evil
dent that it is a wise expenditure of
time, effort and money, and that its re-
suits will be of immeasurable benefit to
the entire state.
