He entered into the narrow street of gold without fear and made many of the "wise" ones snort with rage. But one day this engineer from the west peeved a "great" man with many millions more than he could control. The result was inevitable; the "big fellows" relieved the young engineer of his money, and of all the many friends he had there remained none. One, who had never spoken, came forward with sincere and earnest words, begging him to return to his home in Arizona. A western friend, learning of his calamity, offered him a position as engineer in his construction camp out where the boy belonged. The boy subconsciously following the dictates of his former stenographer returns to his home. After many lonesome periods, the face of his former helper appears before him and in her eyes he reads her secret. He returns east in search of this little helper, not knowing the west was also her home. He goes back dejectedly to his toils and tasks after his search in the east has been in vain, only to run upon by accident that which he had been searching for, she to whom he had been most cruel by his indifference. While out riding Agnes hears the click of the keys of a typewriter in an isolated desert adobe shack. Inquisitive as to who the operator might be, she learns that it is her old employer and the man whom she loves and in his absent hours she stealthily does his work for him. Finally he recognizes the many artful tricks and touches of "her," whom he has learned to appreciate. Later, two detectives, who had been sent upon his trail by men of the east (who feared him), secured their just deserts, and Mr. Carlson of Arizona is relieved from a very unpleasant situation through the love and bravery of his little helper, and he asks her to return as his stenographer, to which she shakes her head. Then he speaks two words, with a smile, "MY WIFE," she nods, and he, who is handcuffed, asks her to unlock them. She does so and he in turn embraces her, putting one handcuff upon her wrist.
