Joe, the tramp, known as the beast, commenced teasing the Saint, known to all as the Kid, and would not permit him to eat any of their food. The glutton and the indifferent one objected, ruling the beast out of camp. The beast goes to the end of a division, and, knowing the good-heartedness of railroad men, asks for money. His appearance is against him and he is refused. He strikes the man down and takes what is not his own. The indifferent one, the glutton and the kiddie have gone on their way and arrive in the railroad yards in time to see the beast struck down while attempting to get away with his ill-gotten gains. The little Saint induces his pals to give succor to the beast. He is taken to an old hut and there nursed back to health by the child tramp, after being deserted by the others. The child later reveals to the beast the man within and secures from him a sacred promise through which the beast is regenerated and caused to turn to the love of God.
