But the little stenographer falls victim to the wiles of the villain's wicked accomplices, and is placed by them in vile duress in an alley ash-barrel, where she falls asleep. The ashman comes and loads the barrel, with other trash, into his wagon and drives off. When the bad-boy accomplices discover that the ash man has taken the barrel away to be dumped into the ocean, their terror knows no bounds. With Detective Dick they pursue the wagon in hot haste, arriving at the ocean just as the ashman throws the barrel into it. The little stenographer's hat floats to the surface, convincing the frightened kids that she has drowned. They inform the ashman what an awful tragedy has happened, and he dives to find the body. But the cute mistress of the typewriter, awakened by a sudden jolt of the wagon, opportunely escaped from the barrel sometime before. When she appears to the boys in the flesh they believe she is a ghost and are frightened nearly to death. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
