Hardly a day passes that a wealthy society woman does not report the loss of her gems. At length the master detective, Blinn, is put on the case. Meanwhile, Judge Page, a wealthy jurist, enters the palatial store of Shaw, who is known as an exclusive jeweler for exclusive people. Judge Page's daughter, Adele, is with him. Adele sees a wonderful pendant and her indulgent father buys it for her. Adele is to be introduced to society and the event is to be marked by an ultra-fashionable ball. Meanwhile, by a clever ruse, Detective Blinn has worked himself into the good graces of a pair of men whom he knows to be crooks and whom he suspects are minor accomplices of the jewel thief. By great patience and diligence, Blinn becomes the criminals' confidant. At length his persistence is rewarded. The men of the underworld include him in "the gang," while plotting robbery at the Page ball. Blinn, himself, poses, by the way, as a crook from San Francisco, and is chosen to steal Adele's pendant. He does so artfully and then his pals lead him to the "fence" where he can get a good price for his booty. After this master stroke all is simple. One by one, Blinn takes his men in custody. The police, the whole city, in fact, is startled when jeweler Shaw is arrested and proved guilty of being the leader of the thieves. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
