Otto loved Steena, the maid at the Snitz homestead, and a letter to his sweetheart caused all the trouble. Besieged by his creditors. Otto writes to Steena invoking pecuniary assistance. Steena, the unfortunate thing, can neither read nor write. Consequently, after Andy has read Otto's note to her, asking that she meet him in the park near the little fountain. Steena asks Mrs. Snitz to answer it. When she has finished it. Mrs. Snitz writes another note to her husband, stating that she has gone to the park for a walk. She dresses and goes out. Steena also prepares to go to the park, and in due time leaves the house. Snitz returns, and after he has read his wife's note, sees an impression on the blotter that opens his eyes. Seizing a revolver, he hustles to the park. Then the fun begins. Otto soon arrives with an armful of flowers he has generously bought for Steena, to be exchanged for a few dollar bills. Steena enters the park, and suddenly spies her sweetheart. Snitz starts to shoot up the park, the first dum-dum embedding itself in Captain O'Shea, the park policeman. With Snitz in pursuit, Otto and Steena, with other park visitors, rush up and down the paths and lanes. Steena finally holds up the excited Snitz and explains that it was her Otto to whom the letter was written. Mrs. Snitz writing it as a favor to her. Mrs. Snitz comes into the scene just in time to bowl over Captain O'Shea, who is about to arrest Snitz for discharging firearms against persons in a public park. Steena rushes to Otto's arms as Mrs. Snitz and her jealous husband decide it was all a mistake. Captain O'Shea is kicked away by Snitz. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
