Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? As bootblacks Ham and Bud incur the ire of Royal Flush, the gambling prince. But later when Roy finds himself in jail Ham and Bud get their chance for revenge by securing jobs as jailers.

Ham's weakness for a pair of pretty eyes almost allows the scheme to go through, but vigilant Bud is on hand and the scheme is frustrated.
