Train Short Order Chef Hijinks

Slapstick comedy in a train kitchen. Billy Bevan is a chef who's dragged out of passenger seat by the conductor to get back to work cooking breakfast. He flips pancakes, and when a black porter comes for eggs, flips the eggs onto the porter's face. Then he accidentally tied a pot of coffee to his apron and jumps up and down in pain when it pours on his back. A man knocks the kettle off his back and into the hand of the porter, who pours a cup and walks off.
