Her father, however, is not averse to being the father-in-law to a baronet and he falls an easy victim to "Jimmy the Duke" when that adroit swindler presents himself as Lord Euclid. His wife passes as his sister, the Duchess of Lornemary, and it looks pretty soft for Jimmy, who is after the Stafford necklace, a wonderful collection of diamonds. The little heiress does not care for Jimmy from the start and she admires him less after John Bender, the baggage master's assistant, comes to her aid when she is attacked by a tramp after "Euclid" has taken to his heels. As soon as the tramp is down Jimmy comes back to the attack and seeks to claim the credit, but Celia will not have it that way and John is thanked. All he cares for is Celia's praise, and when they meet again the next day and she again thanks the stalwart baggage smasher he is transported to the seventh heaven of delight. There is a splendid foundation for a romance, but the sinister figure of Lord Euclid stands in the way. Jimmy, however, "makes his haul," but the detective thinks his face familiar and visits the rogues' gallery of the metropolis. There a finger print and a picture tell their tale and a warrant is sworn out. Through underground channels a warning comes to Jimmy and he makes his escape in his sister's trunk. The baggage smasher smashes the trunk and Jimmy is arrested. That leaves the coast clear for the happy union of Celia and the baggage smasher. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
