The two young men take a position a few yards away to watch the fun. A young couple some along and put their baby on the mound. The trickster heaves his stomach up and down, lifting the baby off. The parents get frightened, pick up the little one and run away. The three laugh over their joke, again cover the young man up, and pack fresh sand over him. A couple comes along, spies the mound, puts up a big parasol, sits down and begins to kiss and hug each other. The buried joker slowly raises up and stares at them. The couple gets scared and scampers away. Again the man is covered up as an Italian fruit vendor appears, and while endeavoring to sell fruit to Nos. 1 and 2, No. 3 is very busy stealing it. After the departure of the fruit man a fussy old maid appears and sits down to read her book. The joker raises his feet and pushes her forward on her face. She gets up, is not frightened, but proceeds to beat the helpless man unmercifully. This unlooked for treatment is too much for No. 3 and he balks at being buried again. His companions coax him. He finally submits and is covered up once again. A fat policeman next appears. The two salute him. One engages him in conversation, while the other gets behind on his hands and knees. The policeman is pushed over and lands heavily on the mound, almost killing the buried joker. He squirms out, rushes off as the cop gets to his feet, and receives a good beating. His companions stand aside, laughing heartily. The officer sees this, throws off his coal and helmet, and starts out for the retreating pair. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
