- DirectorArthur MarvinStarsAnonymousSherlock Holmes enters his drawing room to find it being burgled, but on confronting the villain is surprised when the latter disappears. Holmes initially attempts to ignore the event by lighting a cigar, but upon the thief's reappearance, Holmes tries to reclaim the sack of stolen goods, drawing a pistol from his dressing gown pocket and firing it at the intruder, who disappears.

- DirectorEdwin S. PorterStarsLois WeberHelen AndersonLittle Sherlock Holmes, Jr., reads the doughty doings of his hero-god, and at once determines to become a detective himself. Providence at once favors him by giving him a mystery to solve. His father has noticed that in some weird, unaccountable fashion the whiskey in the decanter is ever vanishing, and father swears he drink it as fast as all that. So Sherlock Holmes, Jr. assigns himself the task of discovering who tampers with his father's soothing beverage. Concealed behind a table, he sees Bridget, the cook, come in and at once proceed to get on the outside of a man's size pull on the flask. At once the embryo detective makes his report to his father, with the astounding solution of the mystery. The father decides to use Dr. Brown's Sure Cure for the Liquor Habit on the cook, and obtains a bottle of the fluid. This he puts in the room near the whiskey, intending to pour some in the bottle a little later. Sherlock Holmes, Jr., discovers the bottle and follows the 'Do it Now' maxim. There are friends visiting the house at the time, who are sitting on the lawn with his parents, awaiting tea, which the maid is going to bring them. Sherlock Holmes, Jr. pours a goodly amount of the fluid into the tea. One of the results of taking the liquid is falling into a deep slumber, and in a few moments the host, the hostess, and the guests are fast asleep. Then happen's along Bridget's beau, the policeman, for whose particular benefit Bridget essays to go inside and procure a glass of 'buttermilk.' After imbibing, the policeman forgets all about everything except that he is awful drowsy, and the next thing, he, too, is asleep. It must have been contagious - or could Bridget not have forgotten herself? - but at any rate, she, too, wanders off into the Land of Nod. Then Sherlock dons the policeman's clothes and club, and marches through the house, monarch of all he surveys. At this opportune moment, two burglars arrive at the scene, and seeking the sleepers, think they have been transferred to Burglar's Paradise. They sneak upstairs, fill their bags with silverware and then fall for the whiskey on the table, little Sherlock watching eagerly. At last they get themselves off, followed by the creator of all the mischief, but they have not gone far when they are overcome by the liquor cure and fall in their tracks to sleep. Little Sherlock now takes the manacles from the policeman's coat pocket, and ties both legs of the burglars together. In due time the household awakes, they seek the boy, and eventually find him covering the two burglars, prisoners of Sherlock Holmes, Jr.
- Brewster, a millionaire, and his daughter, Ruth, were out for a walk. Brewster stopped to shake hands with a friend, while Ruth loitered behind and played with her dog. The millionaire turned just in time to see his daughter driven away in an automobile. Hailing another he gave chase, but in vain. He engages Detective Byrnes, and shows him an anonymous letter he has received. The captors of Ruth learn of Byrnes' connection with the case, and devise a plan to capture him. Later three men in a car are detected watching Byrnes' house, and the detective suspects a trap. By a clever ruse he captures two of the crooks, and forces them to tell him the location of their den. He advises Brewster to meet the crooks at the place named in their letter. Disguised as one of the crooks Byrnes is successful in entering their den, but they were warned to be on the lookout by one of the crooks who escaped capture by the detective. As the daring detective enters the room a man springs from behind a door. The detective, on the alert, jumps back, only to fall into a trap. Leaving him, the crooks go to the appointed meeting place with Brewster. By means of a small pocket mirror the detective reflects the sun's rays and attracts the attention of two of his men waiting outside. At the meeting place Brewster is induced by the crooks to enter their car. As they are about to drive away a motorcycle with a chair attachment passes. As it passes the man in the chair, unnoticed by the crooks, drops a mysterious looking bag, from which a dwarf of a man wriggles, and climbs onto the back of the car. At the end of the ride the dwarf sends a note to the detective by means of a carrier pigeon. In the house where they take Brewster his daughter is shown to him, imprisoned in a small cell-like room. The crooks demand $10,000 for her release. Just as Brewster delivers the money, the detective and his men break into the room. In the scuffle which follows Barney Lee, the Master Crook, escapes. A thrilling chase ensues between the crook in his auto, and the detective on his motorcycle. A clever scheme to elude the detective fails. By means of a rope, which his chauffeur lowers from a high bridge, Barney Lee escapes from a motor boat. The detective arrives on the bridge and cuts the rope, and so foils the escape of one of Lee's accomplices. He then follows Barney Lee, who seeks refuge in the Eiffel Tower." The chase up the tower, and the crook, in desperation, climbing out onto the beams, is intensely thrilling, and then, retribution is meted out to the Master Crook, when his foot slips, and his body falls from the dizzy height. The detective recovers the money and restores it to Brewster. Ruth is delighted when Byrnes hands her the beautiful carrier pigeon which enacted such an important part in this thrilling adventure.
- DirectorGeorge PearsonStarsJames BragingtonFred PaulAgnes GlynneSherlock Holmes solves a murder rooted in the Mormon trek of 1850.
- DirectorRudolf MeinertStarsAlwin NeußFriedrich KühneHanni WeisseIn this early version the classic "Hound of the Baskervilles" mystery is not faithfully adapted, Watson's character is absent and there are two Holmes. Holmes' foe is called Stapleton and he menaces Holmes' client Lord Henry and his fiancée, Laura Lyons, masquerading himself as Holmes. Hidden passages, hand bombs and mechanical devices abound, reminding more of a serial than of a Conan Doyle story.
