Music Hath Charms - Not (1914)
Sheridan, the thin cornetist, Booth, the fat flageoletist, Wonn, the dudish trombonist, and Hendron, the tall bass-drummer, do a vaudeville musical act, and simply make the habitants of their boarding house wild by continually practicing, The Irish janitor tries to enforce the proprietor's orders, and gets stung good and proper. In the interim, the tenants get nervous and throw furniture and other things out of the windows. The janitor rings for the police and others pull the fire-call on a lamp-post in front of the house. He then enters the room of the vaudevillians with a knife between his teeth and a revolver in each hand to do violence to the noisy nuisances. They disarm him. and he, in a panic, upsets a negro woman hanging out wash on the roof, so that she jumps over the coping and lands on the network of ropes hung between the houses to sustain the wash of tenants. About this time the police and firemen come upon the scene, and there is a merry war. The "coppers" get soaked by the hose, likewise the actors, and after more excitement the musicians are finally hauled into court and sentenced to six months in jail, where they can practice their act for the benefit of other delinquents.
