      A low comedy number
      Max Asher and company here appear in a low comedy number, in which he finds a buried treasure. There is a marked improvement in the costuming of this company and this number as a whole is more attractive than former offerings. The humor is of an eccentric, burlesque type. - The Moving Picture World, April 11, 1914
