The crooks follow them and steal their bag, taking it with them to their rendezvous. The rubes are unable to locate the crooks, and finally land in a park bemoaning their loss. While in the park they read an advertisement for shoe clerks. They apply for the positions, and are employed. Rube is given the men's department and Ben the women's. Rube complains to the manager, demands the women's side, but is refused. A girl whom they had met in the part happens along, and comes in to purchase a pair of shoes. Ben insists upon waiting on her, and Rube, refusing to let him, starts an argument, while the girl intercedes. The girl's sweetheart comes into the store and recognizes Rube and Ben as the two men he saw making love to his girl in the park. Thinking they are now trying to make love, he becomes angry and starts an argument. The manager, hearing the uproar, comes in time to see them start a fight which tears up his store. He goes for the police and returns with three large officers who mix up in the fighting. Unable to win against those odds, Ben and Rube flee, and a chase ensues. The chase leads Rube and Ben to a barroom, where they discover the two crooks with their bag of money. They seize the bag and start a struggle. Meantime, the manager of the shoe store, lover and girl reach the exterior of the saloon; Rube and Ben are thrown against the brick wall, going through upon their purpose amidst a falling of bricks and dust.
