Synopsis
Heeding the pleas of Bobbie Brown, Jimmie Jones packs his trunk full of liquor to present to his desperate friend and hops on a train. Upon his arrival, Jones discovers that his cargo has been purloined in transit, and while attempting to replenish his supplies by bargaining with the local bootlegger, is detected by the local sheriff. To escape arrest, Jones impersonates reformer Anthony Goodley but his ruse takes him out of the frying pan and places him in the fire when some troublemakers decide to disrupt his lecture on the evils of tobacco. Matters are further complicated when Goodley's old maid fiancée begins to focus her attentions on the disguised Jones. After several harrowing brushes with the crowd, Jones escapes with his fiancée, Cissy Smith, leaving the real Goodley behind to face the music.
