In the presence of his wife
In the playlet presented by Miss
Howard, culled "New Year's Eve In
Sail Francisco." It Is her custom to
leave the stage and mingle with the
audience. According to the show
management, arrangements had been
made for Miss Howurd to make her
w-ay Into the audience and bestow a
kiss on a man who had consented to
allow her that privilege.
Miss Howard selected the wrong
man. The man she had arranged to
kiss was seated near Blakeley and
greatly resembled him. The "kiss-
able" man Is bald-headed and so Is
Blakeley.
In his complaint Blakeley asserts
he was conducting himself "In a per-
fectly orderly manner" when Miss
Howard approached him boldly and
without warning. She kissed him. he
says, before he had time to ward
ofT the oscillatory attack, which was
"entirely unexpected."
