"Boston Bill," a high class crook, who has made the old man's acquaintance, posing as a financier, also wishes to marry the girl, and likewise has designs on the family jewels, but has no intention of buying them. The Prince is to arrive on a certain day, but is delayed and sends a telegram which is intercepted by "Boston Bill" and later stolen from him by Jerry, and the two are thus made aware of the non-appearance of the East Indian potentate. "Boston Bill" decides to have his "pal," "Flash Jack," impersonate the Prince and Jerry, overhearing their plans, figures out a scheme to frustrate them and impersonate the East Indian himself. He informs his sweetheart of his plans and then starts to work.

He then informs the authorities. Jack is arrested, the incriminating evidence discovered, and Jack landed in jail, where he is recognized as a much wanted crook. Jerry, disguised as the Prince, calls on papa-in-law, foils the other crook, "Boston Bill," in his attempt to steal the jewels, and winds up by locking him in the vault where the jewels are kept.

- Sid Dalton had returned just in time to protect his angry little wife, Billie, from the embraces of Pete, the cowardly and drunken half-breed. The husband handed her his quiet, and Pete could testify that she knew full well how to wield it. This, however, was not the reason he gave the chief and his tribe for wishing to ransack the ranch, but because he had overheard Billie's father, Sheriff Colby, telling his wife and daughter that he and Sid would be away for a few days. Therefore, Pete declared, they could select an hour when the women were out and carry off everything in sight. The Indians had put their plunder in a blanket when Mrs. Colby returned. Quickly they tied her to a chair and would have then escaped had not Billie ridden up and, hearing a noise inside, armed herself with a club. Although for the moment she succeeded in stunning both Pete and another, it only served to anger the half-breed the more, so instead of tying her beside her mother, he bore her off to the camp. As they half dragged, half carried Billie past his kennel, Scout tugged madly at his chains, but it was not until the Indians had reached camp that he finally broke loose and came bounding into the tepee where they had thrown his mistress. Billie crawled out cautiously to the front of the tepee; the redskins were all busily engaged with the whiskey they had stolen, and while to affect her escape with her feet so securely bound would be well-nigh impossible, she hoped to get a message off by Scout. Tearing off a piece of her white skirt, and snatching up some charred wood from the dying campfire. Billie hastily scrawled a line for help, then tying it around the dog's neck, sent him back to the ranch. Here, although he sniffed and whined at the door, no one let him in and he was forced to set off for his master, whom he found, with the cowboys, searching for a horse thief. At first Sid paid no attention to Scout's furious barking and strange antics, until reaching down to pat the brute's head, he found Billie's message. Instantly every boy was in his saddle and galloping madly after the excited Scout. As the cowboys came tearing down upon them, the Indians turned and fled, leaving Sid's little wife to the rescuing party. Putting her aboard his horse and vaulting into the saddle behind, Sid and the sheriff made what speed they could to the ranch to release Mrs. Colby, who was so thankful to again behold her daughter alive and well that she insisted she never felt better in her life and straightforth set about preparing a feast for the delighted cowboys.

- Frank Stockwell felt exceedingly pleased with himself; Judge Sutton's daughter Mildred had just accepted him, and the judge was not only the most influential man in the country, but likewise the wealthiest. As for Elda Carter, the mountain girl, whom he had been foolish enough to imagine he loved. Mildred would never meet her and all would go well. In this, however, he was wrong. Elda had followed him to the judge's home and upon seeing him embrace his fiancée demanded an explanation, which ended in his being haughtily dismissed by Miss Sutton. The Carters, father and son, had seen Elda in tears with an old admirer, Lem Harding, trying to comfort her, and misunderstanding their relationship, had driven the girl from home. This, Frank coolly informed his former sweetheart, interested him not in the least; but as Lem appeared and challenged him to a duel, his coolness forsook him, falling upon his knees, he begged for his life. The luckiest possible thing for Elda, as it thoroughly disgusted and filled her with contempt for the coward, while it showed her the real worth of his rival, Lem. Gladly she consented to go with him, while Frank hurried off to revenge himself by telling the girl's father and brother that Elda had gone to Lem's cabin, as indeed she had, but to be most heartily welcomed by the mountaineer's mother. Quite contrary to Frank's plans, however, the Carters insisted upon his accompanying them, so that when they arrive at the Harding home, and explanations were made, it was only the earnest pleading of both Mrs. Harding and Elda that enabled the trouble-maker to get away with his life. But the arrival of Old Eph with the minister quickly turned their thoughts into a different channel, for the Carters, one and all, were happy and very thankful that their eyes had been opened in time.
- Jerry resents the intrusion of a policeman upon his peaceful dreams, while curled up on a park bench, by putting the stout guardian into sweet repose with the use of a large club. While making a hasty exit out of the sight of the recovering "cop" Jerry is attracted by a loving couple on another park bench, and he at once finds it impossible to make his eyes behave. They attract the attention of Ginger, although she is being courted by Hank, and while looking over the shoulder of the elongated one she winks repeatedly at Jerry, giving him lots of courage. Hank gets an inkling of the flirtation and when he sees Jerry standing over his lady love he lets fly with both hands, but Jerry is too quick and he ducks, the blow falls on Ginger. Hank is overcome at the turn of events and attempts to explain, and as he bends over, Jerry lays him low with an iron pipe and then escapes. Hank, recovering, wants to make good, so he goes off to buy some soda pop. While he is gone Jerry hurries to the side of Ginger and while the two are having a delightful love scene Hank returns. He is about to wipe up the park with Jerry when the little fellow grabs a bottle of pop and again sends Hank sprawling to the ground and a moment later Jerry and Ginger run off together. Jerry is progressing very nicely with his love making when two other policemen hear Hank's tale and the trio start a hunt for the wooer. They soon discover Jerry and Ginger wrapped in each others arms, but while they debate as to how an approach should be made, Jerry gets wise and is off. Hank is determined, and his lanky legs soon overtake Jerry, but the quickness of the latter carries him into a big elevator building, and before Hank can lay hands on him he takes command of an elevator and shoots it upward. Hank goes in another elevator and gives chase and as a last resort Jerry makes for the roof. As he hides behind a chimney Hank spies him and the two struggle all over the roof, finally reaching the edge, Hank's superior strength gets the better of Jerry and the little fellow is sent flying through space to crash on the ground fourteen stories below. A crowd gathers, expecting to see a grease spot, but they are all knocked silly when Jerry jumps to his feet, brushes a little dirt from his clothing and starts off on a run. Hank, thinking that he has killed Jerry goes in an opposite direction, only to come face to face with his tormentor a few minutes later. Another chase follows and Jerry hides in a barrel, believing that Hank has not detected him. Hank creeps up, however, slaps a cover over the barrel and with the assistance of a carpenter nails it down. Jerry is then sent off on a perilous journey, coming to an end when the barrel crashes into a building. But again he is unhurt, and, seeing Hank in the distance, he runs to a dressmaking establishment and there he gets inside of a suit model and a handy woman's hat helps to disguise him. Hank strolls by and is attracted by the model. He flirts and then puts his arm about it. As he looks sheepishly towards the ground he sees Jerry's feet sticking out from under the dress and he becomes furious and starts to choke his victim. Two policemen see the act and, believing that Hank is killing a woman, they hurry on and beat him furiously over the head with their clubs. While the uproar is going on Jerry ducks out from under the female garb, throws the model into tin arms of a copper, who thinks it is a fainting woman. All hands get into a terrible mix-up as Jerry hurries away to the park. At last alone, he gets behind a bush and laughs long.
- Tired of city life, Jerry seeks work on a ranch. Dressed in real cowboy fashion he arrives at the railroad station in a small western town. Louise, an heiress, and her maid, Elsie, are expected by the village folks, Louise being the owner of the big E.Z. ranch. Things have gone wrong at the ranch and at the advice of her attorney, Louise has disguised herself as a maid and Elsie substitutes as the heiress. Jerry is bewildered when he sees all the ranch hands waiting for the arrival of the owner and he is a little timid in his search for work. The train brings the expected heiress, who, dressed as a maid, does not receive the attention that the maid dressed as the heiress receives. Jerry, however, assists the "maid" with her luggage while the townspeople make much over Elsie. As the two women are seated in a small automobile there is an explosion and the machine starts off without a driver. Jerry leaps to his mule and gives chase and overtakes the automobile. He is the hero of the excitement, but his work is successful only because all the gasoline has been consumed. At the ranch, Louise finds that things have been neglected by the men, the foreman being unable to handle them. There is no harmony and a number of fights are started because of the antics of Jerry. No one realizes, however, that Jerry is the cause of many of the clashes during the visit of the owner. Elsie, believed to be the heiress, is made much of. Louise is placed in the background by everyone excepting Jerry. The ranch hands dislike Jerry and one day while he is being cuffed about, Louise arrives. She decides to reveal her identity and does so as she commands that the men stop annoying Jerry. Everyone is surprised to learn that Louise is the heiress and Elsie the real maid. Louise then assumes control of things and discharges all of the employees, excepting the foreman. She then asks Jerry to be her partner and he consents. Elsie, now in her original capacity of maid, is made much over by the foreman. Elsie and her new sweetheart find a quiet little spot in the ranch house, while Louise and Jerry find refuge under a big tree where they have a love scene.
- Whenever anything happens, the police first blame Jerry on general principles and then proceed to find the real culprit. An incident of this kind results in a merry mix-up between Jerry and his enemies, the police, and, when the battle is over, they lead him to the police station. To the great humiliation of the officers, the Captain of Police finds Jerry in the possession of nearly all of the officers' clubs and about a dozen brick-bats. They proceed to put Jerry through the third degree and generally abuse him when they are interrupted by the arrival of an interested old couple who witnessed the altercation between Jerry and the officers. The old folks argue that there is something wrong with Jerry's head and induce the Captain to permit them to take Jerry and have his head examined by a phrenologist. After considerable difficulty, the old couple manage to land Jerry at the phrenologist's door where Jerry, unobserved, manages to create a small riot between the old man and the head examiner, resulting in the arrival of the police and the arrest of the old gentleman. Jerry is escorted into the office where the phrenologist, who in reality is a much wanted military spy, proceeds to hypnotize him, puts his clothes on Jerry and makes him up to resemble the spy, places incriminating papers in Jerry's pockets and makes his escape. The soldiers arrive and arrest Jerry, who is taken before the General at army headquarters. There they search and cross-examine Jerry and find it necessary to handle him in no gentle manner. With the aid of a few handy bottles and some extra fresh pies Jerry subdues his tormentors and makes his departure, only to be intercepted at the gates of the army post by other soldiers, whom he bowls over and makes his escape. Running across the aviation field, Jerry sees an aeroplane which he appropriates and sails away to safety in. In making a landing he accidentally comes upon the head examiner whom he holds up at the point of a gun and marches to the police station. Confident that his capture of the spy will result in his own pardon, Jerry boldly enters the stronghold of his enemies, only to be pounced upon and thrown into a cell.
- As Tetona sat before the camp-fire gazing at the sweet fact of the white woman in her locket, she pondered for the millionth time as to the owner of that face. Her foster-father, the old chief, professed total ignorance on the subject, but Tetona found that her skin was only darkened when exposed to the sun, and that, together with the locket and apparent inborn abhorrence for some of the Indian customs, caused her to sometimes question whether, after all, she was a real Indian Princess. Since Tetona, then Elletta Barnett, had been carried off during the attack on the prairie schooner, nine years ago, the chief bad been kindness itself to the "Princess Tetona." Only now he commanded her to wed the Prince, his son, creeping cautiously from her tent. Tetona stole quietly toward the woods. She could not, she would not marry the young brave. Fate favored her, for, ere the pursuing Indians could drag her back, Dick Morley galloped past and seeing the maiden in distress, caught her up on his horse and made a mad dash for the Barnett Ranch. The mother's instinct, Tetona's face, and locket thoroughly convinced Mrs. Barnett that at last she had found their long-lost daughter, and, overjoyed at the wonderful discovery, she went to call her husband. The Indians, however, had followed close upon the cowboy's heels, and the instant they observed their Princess alone, crept softly behind her and throwing a blanket over her head, bore her hastily outside. Here again Dick might have saved her had not the crafty Prince attacked him from the rear. He revived sufficiently, however, to tell the distracted father and mother which way the Indians had taken their daughter, but as Barnett ran to get the cowboys to rescue Tetona, the Indians surrounded him, and taking him captive, hurried him before their chief. To vent his wrath upon the maiden would have been unbecoming his dignity, but when the chief found Barnett in his power, his anger burst forth. Tetona, seeing the tribe engaged in a war dance around the unfortunate man, mounted the horse they had taken as they returned with her to the camp, and galloped back to the ranch. Luckily the cowboys lost not a moment in responding to her call, for the infuriated chief had stripped Barnett to the waist, painted a target on his breast, and had his braves drawn up to take aim, when they dashed to the rescue, and would gladly have placed the chief in his place, had not the girl told them of his unvarying kindness to her, and insisted upon giving him his freedom.
- Flirtatious Jerry "makes a mash on" pretty Gladys while both are viewing a billboard displaying handsome posters of Julius Caesar, advertised for production in a ten-twent'-thirt' house.

Agreeing to meet again, they separate, Gladys for home, Jerry for a nap, which he proceeds to enjoy in a straw-filled packing case he finds in a nearby alley and (as it must happen for always-getting-into-trouble Jerry) alongside the cache of a lot of loot hidden there by a couple of burglars. Jerry dreams he is a Roman emperor and that he and Gladys are having a great time, winding up with his slaves putting him to bed in the royal chamber.
