Dufoy's eccentricity goes far this time. He elopes with the daughter of his concert agent and the date is off. In despair Mrs. Pyfrom sends her husband out to get anyone to impersonate the 'cellist, while she picks from her phonograph records the cello selections. Bill, gentleman of too much leisure, is found on the front steps and induced to impersonate the player as an alternative to going to jail. With the phonograph and a soaped bow, Bill does very well until the young men, jealous of the attention he has won from the impressionable young girls, substitute a ragtime quartet for his next selection. The concert winds up in a riot, and all Bill gets out of it is a bad bump on the sidewalk and another where a flowerpot hit him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
