Full Plot Details

Mr. Goodwin, head of the Crown Jewel Company, has poor health and consequently often transacts his business at home. He is a kind-hearted employer, and his two assistants, Rogers and Burton, have little to complain of. Burton is the father of a beautiful daughter, Marie, who is loved by Rogers. However, she rejects his suit, preferring charity work in the slums. Here she is known as "the little angel." Goodwin keeps in his private vault the famous Zuleika necklace, looked upon as the most valuable piece of jewelry in the world. Prof. Sanderson, learning of this, is seized with an uncontrollable desire to possess the jewel. Knowing its workmanship, he duplicates it in paste. Following this, by a clever ruse, he gains entrance to Goodwin's home as a doctor to attend the ailing jeweler. He succeeds in duplicating the paste for the genuine and making his escape without arousing suspicion. The next morning Rogers seizes an opportunity to steal the jewel, unaware that he is taking only a paste imitation. He drops in the vault a flower that was worn to the house that morning by Marie's father. When the loss of the jewel is discovered this flower and other circumstantial evidence succeeds in convicting Marie's father of the crime. As the story is developed from here on, we have Marie attempting to make her own living and finally seeking refuge in the slums among her only friends; the second meeting between herself and Prof. Sanderson, the desperate efforts to replace the jewel and the great sacrifice Sanderson makes to save Marie, whom he has unwittingly caused to suffer.
