Being a newspaper man, he receives an assignment from his paper to go to San Francisco. Three months later he arrives in Chicago and leaving the depot, goes up to the elevated station to catch a train for his home. He is followed into the car by a nurse, carrying a baby, who, seating herself behind Powers, suddenly remembers she has left the baby's coat of the station platform. Pacing the baby in Powers' arms she runs out on the platform, when the train starts ahead and she is left behind. At the next station, the exasperated newspaper man, thinking he has had the child thrust upon him, is further surprised when two policemen arrest him for kidnapping. He is taken to the station, where later the nurse, and his mother, who have come for the baby, identify Powers as the villain. And the mother, who then turns to have one look at the "brute" sees it is her husband! Powers then learns how Mrs. Powers had employed the nurse shortly after he left and that it was not another's baby who had been thrust upon him in the elevated train, but that he had been "holding his own."
