A picture from the Essanay studio which introduces the popular chase in a varied form. A burglar enters a house at night and is discovered by a woman, who chases him out at the muzzle of a revolver. He goes from floor to floor, arousing people wherever he goes, and all promptly join in following him down the fire escapes and through windows, making a very laughable ten minutes. This is the film in the rehearsals of which their comedian, Mr. Turpin, lost some of his skin while the tenacious bulldog was being trained to hold on to the seat of his pants. The sketch is a good one and gets the laughter, but is rather drawn out. and some of the scenes could have been cut down without injury to the whole. - The Moving Picture World, March 27, 1909
