His wife insists that he offer a reward for the return of it. Bobo, a hobo, finds the wallet, and afraid to examine its contents in the open, he hides in a dog kennel. The kennel is the residence of Mr. Wallack's great Dane, and at about this time Mr. Wallack decides to tie his dog up for the night. Bobo is forced to remain in his hiding place. In the morning Genevieve, a lady hobo, dismounts from a freight train She sees a man tacking up the reward signs in reference to Mr. Wallack's wallet. To avoid a passing policeman, Genevieve ducks down an alley just in time to see Bobo come from the dog kennel, Mr. Wallack having taken his dog for a morning stroll. Genevieve finds an empty wallet in the kennel, and comparing the name on it with that mentioned in the reward signs, she decides that she is on the trail of the thief. She follows Bobo. The enterprising policeman has followed Genevieve as a suspicious character. Genevieve traces Bobo to Mr. Wallack's woodshed. She succeeds in recovering the money and locking Bobo in an empty trunk. The policeman catches Genevieve with the wallet and the money and immediately takes her off to jail where Genevieve explains to the captain that she has locked the real thief in the trunk. The captain takes Genevieve back to catch Bobo in the trunk. It happens that Mr. Wallack and his gardener already found Bobo in his hiding place and they have started for the police station. It looks bad for Genevieve when she and the officer arrive at the woodshed and find no trunk. Things are straightened out when they go back to the station, where they find Mr. Wallack and the police opening the trunk. Genevieve gets the reward.
