For this he and his crew are to receive the sum of twenty-five dollars. At the same musicale is to appear the famed violinist, Professor Scherenaz, who has consented to play one solo for the low figure of one thousand dollars. Hearing of this Casey manages to intercept the foreign artist and through dire threats of violence at the hands of his "musical" cohorts forces the professor into a bargain. The violinist is to seat himself in a peculiarly constructed chair in the drawing room over which a curtain is hastily thrown. Seated upon his knees, Casey is told to hold the instrument while the real musician will go through the motion of playing. The spectacle of a violin apparently giving forth music from invisible hands is too much for the guests. They flee in wild disorder. In the confusion Mrs. Rockabilt discovers Casey's hoax.

A compromise is effected when the bandmaster receives the thousand intended for the poor professor, and Casey departs in glee.
