The other evening when Clara Kimball Young stepped out with Harry
Garson wearing a whole photoplay worth of ermine and diamonds, a very
embarrassing thing happened. They danced of course, but in one of those
floor jams, Clara suddenly found her lovely head parked on the shoulder
of her ex-spouse, Jimmy Young. Gallant to the end, Jimmy appeared not to
notice—but when the next dance began, Jimmy sat it out with his partner
at one end of the ball-room while Clara feigned weariness at the other
end!

Evelyn Nesbit, formerly Mrs. Harry K. Thaw, recently caused the arrest of
four men on charges of disorderly conduct. She complained they entered
the hallway outside of her apartment and that one seized her by the
shoulders and made an insulting remark. The complainant said she knew
none of the men. At the station house Miss Nesbit said that the men fled
in a taxicab when she ran to the street yelling “fire” and calling for
the police. The quartet returned later and encountered two policemen.
