When the guests are seated around the table, it begins to perform very extraordinary antics and finally moves slowly out of the door, for Teddy has tied a string to it and is proceeding down the hall. The scheme works to perfection until lie meets a friend upon the stairway, who gives him a shove that sends him rolling out into the street, followed by the table and the astonished company. Away they run until they encounter the police, who, when informed of the fraud, carry the three impostors off to jail. Written by
