By a daring leap from the freight to the passenger, Hume steals the trunk, throws it into one of the boxcars, and then leaps back. The trunk is missed and the loss reported from Helen's station. Deering, a railroad detective, is sent to investigate. Later, when the boxcar containing the looted trunk is set out at Helen's station, the girl discovers its contents and makes a report to Deering. The detective discovers the hiding place of the crooks, but in attempting to capture them is knocked unconscious and placed upon the tracks. Helen discovers the man's predicament barely in time to save his life. Later, the girl sees Frintz and his pal boarding an outgoing freight. Pursuing them, she just manages to swing aboard the last car. After telling her story to the train crew, Helen climbs to the top of the cars and runs forward. A battle between the yeggs and the brakemen ensues. The latter are defeated, and to prevent pursuit the yeggmen cut the train in two. By a desperate leap, the girl telegrapher manages to make the front section. The crooks then hold up the engine crew and throw the men off the train. Helen, however, turns the tables on the thieves and runs the broken section back to where the rest of the train has been abandoned. Frintz tries to overpower Helen, but the girl easily frustrates the man who, with his pal, are shortly afterward made prisoners. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
