living in the Bronx. slept through her
thirteenth day of coma in the Hydro

breathes regularly and has lost little
weight since entering the hospital,
Every means to awaken her has
been tried with no success. When
Miss Guttman, toward the last Of
July, complained of fatigue and took
long maps, it was thought that the
hot weather had affected her. On
July 80, however, she passed into
what DR.. Hermann Reichman and
Dr.. Gilbert Miller Of the Hydropathic
institute pronounced to be a state of
eplleptic coma.
The girl sustained a slight fracture
of the skull when she was''3 years old
and her condition is attributed to

The Ringmaster Is Pre-

Players

Artistic to superlative degree and
novel even in San Francisco is the
new Oriental theater, formerly the
Savoy, which was opened with much
pomp and effective ceremony last
night The playhouse blazed without
and within from many various sorts
and styles of Chinese lanterns hung
from balcony, wall and ceiling. They
glowed softly and cast a golden hue
over some beautiful silken tapestries
composing the wall decorations.
Dainty naidens .garbed in flowing
kimonos fitted hither and thither in
the capacity OF usl1ers, and they seated
without hitch or bit of embarrass-
ment about the largest audience that
ever tried to squeeze into the Meal
lister street theater. The front of the
house was swamped with many hand

and friends Of the new management.

interior grinned some rather horrible
looking Chinese masks--emblematic

manager OF the playhouse, and
Walker G. Graves Jr., who is the lead
