Thru friendship with Katharine O'Neil, Helen Allen gets a position on the paper, where she makes friends with Kirk Connelly, a young and ambitious reporter. Shortly afterwards, Connelly gets a scoop on the suicide >f a local millionaire. He knows his story is exclusive. Carrying out his plans to injure the standing of the paper, Gordon arranges with the press foreman to break the press in order to prevent an extra edition. In addition Gordon telephones the story to the rival newspaper. The result is that again Katherine O'Neil's newspaper is made the butt of much local ridicule. Connelly is angry and expresses the, belief that Gordon is crooked.' "}* ' Helen is assigned to interview Doctor Ord, famous scientist, on the question of the substitution of new glands for old ones in an effort to prolong life indefinitely. Helen previously knew Dr. Ord in the European battlefields and her friendship leads him to grant her an interview on a startling experiment he is about to perform. The interview takes place in a subterranean chamber next door to a prison and the doctor tells Helen that a prisoner has deeded over his body to Dr. Ord after death for the sum of $5,000. The next day's newspaper tells of the death of the prosecuting attorney and judge. Helen reveals information about the secret chamber and her interview with the doctor Connelly and Helen investigate, finding a diary belonging to Dr. Ord and in which details involving the transplanting of the brain of a criminal into the skull of a gorilla. Looking over the files. Connelly finds where this convict had made threats against the murdered men during the trial. In order to strengthen his theory It is necessary for Connelly to locate an Algerian servant of Dr. Ord's. Using an airplane he boards a train in motion, does not find the servant, uses- a seaplane and reaches thO steamer on which the Algerian is traveling. There he locates the servant who states that when the doctor placed the brain of Hogan in the skull of the gorilla, the gorilla carried out the threats of Hogan before th® latter s death. Connelly writes the lead on his story and shoots it in the office. Gordon tips off the story to the other paper. Rival reporters and subsidized detectives plan to trap Connelly and Dinty--both of whom are waiting at the home of Hogan's brother for the arrival of the gorilla. Connelly gets the scoop, also promotion and a bride--but in getting them he has some thrills v that have never before been pasted on celluloid Mrs. Alvin Boorheen of Beloit, Wis., was a gUest in the home of Mrs. Eliza Parker the latter part of last week.
