The sole support of her mother, her heart is filled with fear lest she be dismissed. The proprietor of the store seeks the assistance of Leonore, in his effort to solve the mysterious thefts which cost him thousands of dollars annually. The special investigator, aided by Talcott, a headquarters man, tackles the ease. They speedily discover a weak spot in Harris. The sleuths learn that the general manager has compelled Frances to promise to attend a stag party he is to give that evening. Calling upon the girl at her boarding house, Leonore finds her clad in a gown which Harris had taken from the store's stock and sent to her. Fearing dismissal, Frances turns a deaf ear to Leonore's plea not to attend the affair. In the meantime, Talcott has succeeded in winning Harris' friendship. The sleuth is invited to the stag party. He finds a gay crowd of men and women present. At the proper moment, the attendants enter bearing a huge urn. This is placed on the table. When opened, Frances is found within. The leering eyes bent upon her, frighten the girl. Evading Harris' outstretched hands she rushes from the place. Talcott helps her escape. Back home the girl goes, humiliated at what has occurred. Frances attempts to slay herself. Leonore saves her in the nick of time. Filled with indignation, the sleuths lay a trap for Harris. As the result, Leonore catches him in the act of rifling the safe late next night. The thief turns the tables upon her and locks the girl in the safe, but the timely arrival of Talcott saves Leonore's life and results in Harris' capture.
