At last the spies learn that the Secretary of War is to witness demonstrations of this remarkable invention, and deciding to take advantage of the opportunity, remind the mysterious Lady Baffles, in a startling manner, of her oath of allegiance, and order her, by the Sign of the Sacred Safety Pin, to secure the formula. She prepares at once to obey. General Ginger, who has the papers in his safekeeping, attends the trials with the War Secretary. They are executed with amazing results. Lady Baffles is a hidden witness. She follows the General and Secretary to their offices and later has nearly secured the coveted formula when discovered. She barely escapes. Her usual challenging note is then found by the startled Secretary and General, who send immediately for the famous sleuth, Detective Duck. Lady Baffles is again warned by the disgusted spies. They join arms with her to see that there is no faltering the next time. They all then carefully scheme to raid the War Office that night for the papers. Detective Duck, who is on the trail of this mysterious woman, is captured by the desperadoes and lashed to the mouth of a loaded cannon. They light a long fuse and then rush to the War Office to secure the papers. The congenial Secretary and General, celebrating their relief at supposedly having the famous detective guarding them, go to bed filled with much good spirits. The spies and Baffles gain access to the office through this bedroom. They get busy on the vault. Meanwhile the powder is discharged and Dick is hurled skyward. He finally tumbles down on a roof, going straight through the skylight and lands in the War Office, startling Baffles and the foreign spies who are drilling the vault. Duck rushes to capture them, but they escape to the bedroom, locking him out. Not to be foiled in securing the papers, Baffles and one of the spies disguise themselves in the clothes of the Secretary and the General, hide the latter two under the bed, and greet Duck when he finally breaks into the room. In their disguise they easily secure the iron box containing the coveted papers, all before the very eyes of Duck. After their getaway the real Secretary and General are discovered. To their astonishment, the detective produces the supposedly lost papers which he had hidden. And when the exultant spies break open the iron box they are shocked at finding a quantity of mysterious white powder. They also find a note addressed to Lady Baffles, which reads: "Try some of this noiseless face powder; use it once, and you'll use it always. (Signed) Detective Duck."
