Tom Roach, a detective, in love with Kitty Randolph, is assigned to obtain incriminating evidence against Roth. Although he follows Roth across the border and watches him closely, he cannot find evidence against the man for the reason that Roth hides the precious stones in cartridges. Kitty, hearing of her lover's failure to convict Roth, urges her father to accompany her across the border. There she causes Roth to fall in love with her. He asks her to take across the border some valuable diamonds. She agrees, for the diamonds have been stolen from her aunt. She places the diamonds in a piccolo which she plays. At her home Roth calls for the diamonds. Kitty Randolph shows him how she has smuggled them through the customs. She, however, refuses to give them up, and Roth attacks her, trying to obtain the diamonds. Detective Roach appears on the scene, and after a desperate conflict, he takes the crook into custody. And so it proves that the inventiveness of a woman causes a triumph for the detective. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
