For the husband there survived nothing of the pleasure of matrimony but jealousy. For the wife, there was not even that resource. So when an opportunity came to her to pose for the interesting artist on the floor above she welcomed it with open arms. She put on a distracting Carmen costume and took her stand on the model throne. The janitor of the building had a passion for art. He could not keep away from Dicks studio when beautiful models in all styles of dress were posing. The lovely Carmen was too much for him altogether, and he enveloped her too abundant charms in a fish net. They were disturbed in their art pursuits by the return of the husband, who, not finding his wife in her room, set out to find her. He took the usual extraordinary make of repeating revolver, which shoots a hundred times without reloading, with him. He broke into the studio, and his wife and the janitor just succeeded in escaping through the dumbwaiter. They chased each other up and down in it, and finally landed on the roof. The husband grabbed one end of a ladder and the janitor took the other, and they teetered back and forth, trying to push each other over the edge of the building. Everything came to an end at last in a general smash-up. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
