When "Mad" Maitland coming home unexpectedly to his bachelor apartment after a long absence met a girl coming out of the front door of the building he was somewhat surprised. He was more surprised when he saw the impression of a woman's hand in the dust of his library table. To preserve the print for future reference, he inverted a brass bowl upon it, and gave strict instructions to his valet that the bowl should not be touched on any consideration. That evening Maitland dined at his club with his attorney. During their discussion of Maitland's suit against a man named Graeme the attorney strongly advised the young man to bring his jewels from his country house into the city. The impulsive Maitland decided to bring them in that very evening. On his way to his country place, Maitland came upon a stalled automobile containing the girl he had seen on his apartment house steps. He helped her start the machine, and discovered that she thought he was Handsome Dan Anisty, a notorious cracksman. When he arrived at his house, he found the girl engaged in opening his safe. Acting in the assumed role of Anisty, he offered to go halves with the girl. While they were talking, the real Anisty arrived. Maitland overpowered him and fled with the girl, who insisted that he should keep the booty. On the strength of his remarkable resemblance to Maitland, Anisty escaped from the former's servants, came to the city, knocked Maitland unconscious, and dressed in .Maitland's clothes, kept his luncheon engagement with the girl. Fearing arrest, he gave the girl the jewels which he had taken from the unconscious Maitland. The girl, suspecting the truth, took the jewels back to Maitland's apartment instead of keeping an appointment with Anisty. Maitland called from his club by a cry across the telephone wire, came home in time to save the girl from the enraged Anisty. He allowed them both to escape, and owing to his resemblance of Anisty, was nearly arrested by the police. The story concludes with a sensational fight in an office building wherein Anisty is killed. Maitland discovers that the girl, instead of being an ordinary thief, is Sylvia Graeme, daughter of the man he is suing. When he learns that all she wanted has been a certain paper, Maitland burns the paper and begins the one real romance of his life.
