4219 Police 2 Reels
Released from gaol Charlie starts life afresh — by being robbed of his last dollar. He is a magnet for trouble as usual, but treats all fate's rebuffs with impudent optimism.

The final scene, however, shows a policeman in pursuit as usual ; for though he is never wicked there is no rest for the little tramp.
