Arthur is a slick college boy and is right there with the love stuff. As Grace's papa has gone away on a business trip, Arthur has plenty of opportunity. Rags Ragone, a tramp, meets two children and takes their toy, a glass pistol. He holds up Arthur, who gets the village constable after the terrible desperado. Rags holds up the constable and has a lot of fun with him. Then Grace's papa returns suddenly and Rags also holds him up with the glass pistol then he makes him change clothes with him. Arthur encounters papa who looks exactly like the tramp. Armed with a sword, Arthur makes a heroic capture. He takes papa to the town jail and chains him to the wall, then he goes for Grace and takes her to the jail to convince her that he is "right there" with the hero goods. One glance at the chained-up prisoner, one shriek, "My Papa," followed by a rapid release of father, who presents Arthur with one large, juicy kick. Exit Arthur, sore at both ends. The constable arrives on the scene and announces he has captured the real tramp, whereupon Arthur is thrown into the creek. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
