Comedy.

Reviews: [The Moving Picture World, 6 March 1915, p. ?] Chester Conklin appears in this very pleasing number as spooney Mr. Walrus. He makes love to the professor's daughter and they fool the aged astronomer by shooting off fireworks near his telescope. The plot of this seems new and unique; it is sure to bring much laughter from an audience.
