Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? When a lady beau of the present century leaves her defenseless lover piled high with bundles on the park bench and a bully boy appears with a timorous Lady Rose, complications are bound to arise. There he left her with the defenseless one while Bud and Bessie proceeded to compromise the honor of both. The sheriff was out posting the Mayor’s edict, “No flirting allowed in this town,” when Bud and Bessie appropriated his shackles and bound the timid two. It started something, as any spectator will soon see.
