A comedy from this house which introduces some novel elements. A jewel robbery was proved upon the confession of the principal to be a fake. Then a burglar gets to work .and decides to have the next one real, and upon his success in this is based the story. Of course the public assumes that the second story is quite as fishy as the first, and not until a clever detective turns up and proves that a real robbery occurred will they believe it. The acting is sympathetic, one almost wants to say vigorous, and the photographer has performed his part satisfactorily. The combination of these elements has contributed to the success of the picture. Perhaps this film is no better than previous releases by the same house, but it is a better subject than one, at least, of its previous issues and it is handled to excellent advantage. - The Moving Picture World, April 9, 1910
