The usual railroad story

Eighth of the "Hazards of Helen" series, embracing the usual railroad story. While it cannot be denied that it is full of inconsistencies, this story makes people sit up and take notice. The director has handled his principals in scenes which makes the average spectator gasp, and Miss Holmes takes her hazardous chances in working out the offering to its usual ending.
