A Dog in the Manger (1917)
Two inventors come to grief when their bogus sausage machine goes to pieces, and they only escape from pursuing policemen by a very close margin. The two arrive at a hotel where all employees have gone on strike. Both fall in love with the landlord's daughter. Mr. Crump, the star boarder, has the gout and his ailment is not relieved any when the hotel strike-breakers wait upon him. He rides in his invalid chair out of the hotel and down the walk. Fearing the loss of his star boarder, the landlord orders a pursuit. The star boarder's chair never stops till it plunges into the lake. Bright and Early, strike-breakers, dive in after the star boarder, who failed to hold his breath as instructed.
