What happens
The Milker's Mishap is a 50-foot 1897 American silent short comedy film. It was sometimes shown with Pillow Fight Between Three Young Ladies, using Edison's projecting kinetoscope. It may have been filmed in Washington, DC, when the Edison camera crew traveled there for McKinley's inauguration, because it was submitted for copyright protection with the Library of Congerss along with two other films, Pile Driving, Washington Navy Yard, and Guard Mount, Ft. Myer. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
