Synopsis

Soon after discovering gold in a mine which he has worked for many years, Thomas Ogden is killed in an explosion set by his former partner who sold his own interests in the claim just before the strike. Ogden's daughter Helen, now wealthy, moves to New York and becomes a busy socialite, until Reverend Granger, a minister from the Lower East Side, interests her in working for the city's poor. When she meets Jack Burton, a young reporter, the two fall in love, but he will not marry Helen because of her wealth. When crooks try to rob Helen of her gold mine, however, Jack helps her regain possession, and in the end, Jack realizes his true love for her and they are reconciled.
