The Magic Flute (1906)  was actually a French Pathé Brothers film, and not produced by Vitagraph.  Illegal duping of films was rampant at this time because copyright laws were not very strong for films.  There is not a known film entitled The Adventures of a Detective, but films were shown with many different titles, especially if they were duped, during this era. Comedienne Toby Claude did make a few character appearances in films by Cecil B. DeMille and William deMille in the 1920s.
