Alkali Ike Stung! (1912) Online
This time Alkali Ike is dissatisfied with his boarding house and, when the buxom Sophie, a two-hundred-pound widow arrives in town, buys out Tony's place and nails up cards announcing that it will be opened on the following Tuesday as a first-class boarding house, Alkali is the first to see it, rushes back and begins to lay plans for switching at once. The following Tuesday morning Alkali is found hard at work stuffing everything he possesses into a big barrel. Clothes, chaps, old boots, the flour bin, bottles of good booze and other things too numerous to mention are piled into the barrel while the dust flies in clouds. Meanwhile, all the other boys in town, with their belongings on their backs, meet before the floor of the new boarding house and clamor for admission, One by one Sophie admits them, and when Alkali finally takes leave of his irate landlady and arrives at the new place, he finds the rooms all gone and is refused shelter for the night. Mad as a hornet he hangs around ...
