He then reports at police headquarters as usual. He is detailed on the job of catching a man, who the night before has committed a safe robbery and all but murdered a night watchman. The watchman is able to identity the thief's picture in the rogues' gallery, and Connolly, taking his life in his hands, sets out on his trail. He knows Smitty's hang-out, and disguising himself as a yeggman, succeeds in finding him and a pal. A fierce fight ensues, in which the thieves make their getaway and lead the detective a chase to Smitty's tenement. Connolly finally outwits the crooks, however, and turns them over to the authorities. He then dresses the wounds he has received, changes his clothes and goes home to supper. Not a word of the perils he has undergone passes his lips to Mary and the children. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
