Frank was an ardent lover of sports. Dogs were his particular hobby, and he took great delight in a pair of Siberian wolf-hounds which he had trained for police work. However, Frank was by no means popular with Mr. Stuart, who favored an unprincipled fortune hunter, Count La Francisco, because of his blue blood. Therefore, when he discovered his daughter's affection for Johnson and her dislike for the Count, his rage knew no bounds. By chance, the Count overheard the father tell Katherine that he was going to send her to Europe, and immediately formulates another plan for raising money. His idea is to abduct the girl and hold her for ransom. So, in league with two of his countrymen, who have a grievance against Stuart, he proceeds to carry it out. The girl is kidnapped and taken to a hut in the woods, where she is forced to write a letter to her father demanding money. Then follows a search led by Detective Smart and Johnson in which the Count has joined so as to keep up appearances. The dogs follow the trail to the hut and a battle ensues in which the hut is destroyed by fire. Katherine is rescued and the conspirators all receive their just deserts. Stuart becomes reconciled to Johnson. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
