A very ludicrous subject. The series opens up with the scene of a bedroom. The wife enters and prepares the cot of the man with the uniform, who is doing night duty. The man retires, and soon after we see silhouetted on the curtain two cats antagonistic to each other. Annoyed by the arguments of the two felines the sleeper arises, and, filling a basin with water, draws the shades and window gently and dashes the water out at them. He misses his mark, but the water deluges the wife, who is sweeping the walk below. Enjoying himself over the outcome, he sits up in bed awhile, and when he concludes to continue his rest his wife enters and gives him a severe trouncing.
All is quiet until an organ grinder stops underneath the window, and this fellow meets a sad fate as the dresser drops out of the window and puts both him and his instrument out of commission for a time. Another person passing wishes to apprise the occupants of the house of the catastrophe and meets a like fate by being struck by a washstand. A delivery man is now added to the unfortunates by being struck with bedclothes, and the police officer proves the recipient of the balance of loose and available furniture. Procuring a ladder they climb up and enter the room just as the man is leaving it. A chase ensues, but the perpetrator eludes his victims by mounting the platform of the last car of a train just leaving the station as he arrives.
