Rose Montgomery is about to become his fiancée, but his wealth is his only attraction for her. While slumming, Rose and Hadfield with their party are guided into "Dago" Frank's dive. On leaving, Rose purposely drops her gloves, and later asks Hadfield to return for them. He laughs at her request, and she taunts him with being afraid. Suddenly awakened to her real feelings, he smilingly turns back, and soon after he enters the dive, a fight begins, and though Hadfield is a great fighter, he is soon at a disadvantage in struggling with Dago Frank and three gangsters at once. Teresa, Dago Frank's daughter, is a flower girl, of whom Hadfield has for some time been a customer. She has the greatest admiration for him. Seeing him weakening, she switches off the light and tells him that the door is open. He escapes and by mistake enters her room. She hides him and cares for his wounds. Perceiving that she loves him for himself alone, Hadfield asks her to become his wife and go west with him. Dago Frank gives his consent. Hadfield goes to Rose, returns the gloves and bids her a cold good-by. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
