Good early short where Chaplin saves the day through his zany antics.

Chaplin's short film has some fun gags alongside some others he's already used at this point of his career (the mop). The template is the same as it for many of Charlie's Tramp films: he pursues a girl, usually unsuccessfully, and he acts the hero and stops the bad guys from their crime. That said, the formula works, and with the clever ending in this, it leaves a smile on my face.

The usual. The oldest of old hat. One funny gag at the very, very end

Chaplin really makes the sentimental plot the main focus here more than he has before, and it works fairly well. Billy Armstrong makes for an OK if not especially memorable slapstick partner, though most of the comedy here doesn't really stand out (except maybe Charlie holding a man at gunpoint with Edna flung over his shoulder... and the ending, of course).
