He was a janitor, but from his clothes he could have passed for Lord Chesterfield. He eloped with some kopecks from the boss's safe and went to the swellest hotel in town. There he met a pretty girl, and in order to impress her with his importance, he hires a page to bawl his name through the lobby and corridors. As luck would have it, his boss was stopping at the same hotel to rest his shattered nerves after the loss of his kopecks. He heard the name, and lost no time in looking Rawsberry up. Also an irascible gentleman whom Mr. Rawsberry had bumped in the park likewise hearkened and thanked heaven he had located the man he most wished to meet. Mr. Rawsberry sensed the approaching danger and tried to shut the page off, but the latter had lungs of leather and was fascinated with the sound of his own voice. He bawled the louder. Mr. Rawsberry, attempting to avoid the impending unpleasantness, ran afoul of a fire hose. The page got another fire hose, and the irascible gentleman drew his pocket cannon. A general melee followed. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
