At least| this is the view of Alfred Hickman, now playing with the Augustin Daly Musical Comedy Company at the Califor- nia Theater. Barely has thé public mind finished digesting the gossip attending the anrouncement from the East that Blanche Walsh was divorced from Hickman, than ¢ the latter appears in San Francisco to | facc a telegraphic accusation that he is sharing a matrimonial voke with Leslie o0, also of the Daly Company. Hickman and Miss Mayo arrived here seven days ago from New-York in the very wake of the news that Miss Walsh | had been granted a divorce from the first named. The publicity of the separaiion furnished quite a surprise to the theat rical world, for there were few who had known that Hickman and Miss Walsh | were married, but what will surprise | everybody more is a later statement con- | tained in a dispatch from New York to | the effect that shortly after Miss Walsh had secured her decree, Hickman and Miss Mayo, who had been playing to- | gcther in the “Nancy Brown’ company, | had quietly slipped over to Jersey City, {on the eve of their departure to San Fran- cisco, and been married. | Secret, and as is often the case, fre- quent marriages among theatrical folk | are not a cause for more than ordinary | comment, but in the particular case of | Alfred Hickman and Miss Mayo, if a mar- | riege could be establishe: beyond a doubt, it would prove a far more serious affair than they probably could have conceived INTERLOCUTORY DECREE. It appears that Miss Walsh's decree 1s of an interlocutary character, remaining ineffective until three months after April 14, last, the date on which the court answered her prayer for rellef, and under the laws of New York, sustained by a recent decision by the Bupreme Court, | shculd either party to “the divorce rel | marry within the time prescribed, he or she would be liable to prosecution on a charge of bigamy. According to the stery sent out from the East, Hickman and Miss Mayo are supposed to have gone to Jersey City, thinking that the law of New York would not reach them. No one here is prepared to_confirm the story and Hickman positively denies it. Arriving here last week he and Miss Mayo | secured apartments at the Larchmont on | ettt @ il Mrs. Richards’ Recital. Mrs. Waldo Richards’ dramatic recital last evening at Century Hall was a de- cidedly artistic success. The attendance was not large, but those present ‘were rep- resentative of exclusive society. The au- dience was appreciative and enthusiasti- cally applauded the entertainer’s selec- tions, which were happily chosen from good literature. Mrs. Richards is a charming and culti- vated woman, with a gift of pathos and mimicry. She is particularly strong in dialect compositions, in which she gives clear interpretations of character. She ‘was completely in sympathy with her au- dience and held its attention from start to finish.

In fact, District Attorney Jerome of New York City is quoted as follows: If Alfred Hickman, husband of Blanche Walsh, separated only by an interlocutory d cree, has married Miss Leslie Mayo, as is stal ed in the newspapers, and a complaint is made and proofs offered, 1 will prosecute Mr. Hick- man for bigamy. But seemingly Actor Hickman is not of the sort to be easlly scared. He declared that he could see the hand of Abe Hum- mell, New York's well known criminal la r, and that of his former wife in what he termed a plot to injure him in his theatrical undertakings and with some rather mild profanity, strongly marked with Inglish accent, he contorted his features into a Roosevelt smile and shout- ing “excuse me,” again rushed upon the stage to join with the opera company in its effort to amuse a S8an Francisco au- dience, N Miss Mayo, when she learned of the storles, carefully avolded the interviewers by slipping up to her dressing-room be- tween acts and secret'ng herself on the opposite side of the stage when not be- fore the footlights. true” Holy Redeemer Parish Outing.
