SY N O PSIS OF PLAY
A prize fight was the cause of it all. Ebeuezer Goodly,
an elderly professor of Anatomy, was expecting a visit from
hi« brother, the Bishop of B allarat whom he had not seen for
th irty years. On the eve of the Bishop’s arrival G oodly’s pros­
pective son-in-law, Richard H eatherly, persuaded the Profes­
sor to go, in the interest of science, to see a prize tight. The
police raid the hall and in an attem pt to elude them- Jones, a
traveling salesman, joins Goodly and Richard and enters the
Professor's house. As the police are hotly iu pursuit Jones
m asquerades as the Bishop, and as such he is introduced to the
other members of the family.
N aturally, com plications arise, especially when Alvina
S tarlight, Mrs. G oodly’s sister who lias been carrying on a
secret correspondence with the Bishop, appears and tries to
make love to the m asquerader. To make m atters worse the
real Bishop arrives ami is m istaken for a lunatic who had re­
cently escaped from a nearby asylum- The real lunatic, who
thinks himself an Indian chief then makes his appearance,
dressed in blanket and feathers, and queer things “ H appen to
Jo n e s’’ who, however, is alw ays master of the situation.
