They are unconsciously forestalled, however, by a regular hobo who arrives at the depot and, after stealing Doom the drummer's satchel, is seized and borne off by the delegates of the Royal Order to the banquet hall. A little later the actor tramp and his actress partner reach the depot, where they are grabbed by the constable summoned by Doom. On investigating the satchel Mills carries, though, they fail to find anything but September Morn's little union suit. The vaudeville tramp and his companion arrive at the hall just in time to see the hobo being presented with the loving cup. They expose the impostor, who is driven from the hall. Then the Royal Order showers his money and flowers upon the delighted comedian. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
