When Marietta, an old maid, displays her hosiery in going upstairs, she innocently gives Jim an idea. Charlie Jones, one of the bell boys, peers into Jim's room via the keyhole. He sees a pair of legs sticking out of the hosiery salesman's sample trunk. A slight jar causes the legs to move. The hose on the legs is similar to that worn by Marietta. Charlie promptly speeds down to the hotel clerk and declares that Jim had slain the old maid and was hiding her body in his sample trunk. The clerk takes a peek to satisfy himself and then summons the entire village police force. His alarm also brings out the fire department. With considerable trepidation, the men approach Jim's room. They finally muster up sufficient courage to smash the door. They come just in time to see the salesman reach into his trunk and pull out a pair of leg dummies such as are used for the purpose of displaying stockings in show windows. With one accord, the intruders turn upon the clerk and the bellboy and kick them from the room. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
