How Hubby Made Good (1910)

Hubby has a telephone call from the boys at the club but Mrs. Bailey is made to believe that it is an important deal at the office that takes him from his fireside. An hour later the phone again rings and a gentleman's voice inquires if Mr. Bailey is at home. Mrs. Bailey informs the gentleman that her husband is at his office. "But," says the gentleman, "I have just left the office. There is no one there but the janitor." Mrs. Bailey, indignant, calls up the club. She has a heated conversation with her spouse. Bailey returns to the boys and tells his troubles. One of the number suggests that two of them disguise as burglars, frighten Mrs. Bailey and let Bailey do the hero stunt. Capital idea. But in the meantime a real second-story man is on the job. Mrs. Bailey hears him and telephones for the police. The burglar hears the phone ring and beats a hurried retreat. The police arrive just as the deputation from the club arrive through the dining room window. The two "thieves" are captured and turned over to the blue coats. The clubmen appeal to Bailey but he is obdurate, and struggling, they are taken away.
