When Nash, the crooked contractor, learns that the detective on the way to the Capitol with the evidence that will convict him must stop off at Lone Point to make train connections he determines to make use of the opportunity. He speeds in his automobile to the connecting point, and at the proper moment his aides set on Stanton and succeed in making way with the bag in which the documents are carried. Tom Arnold, a tramp who has earned Helen's gratitude by aiding her in preventing an attempted robbery of the station, comes to the detective's aid, but just in time to be arrested himself as one of the thieves. Helen, convinced of his innocence, sets out on a high-powered motorcycle after the automobile containing Nash and his aides. His perilous ride is the beginning of a pursuit which reaches the climax when Helen leaps from horse-back to the speeding Governor's Special, barely grasping the hand-rail and pulling herself aboard in time to escape injury: But she succeeds in bringing the real culprit to justice and setting Arnold on his feet again.
