Plot

Everybody enjoys playing pranks on Littleton Looney, so when he wins a voyage on a luxury liner, word is mischievously sent ahead to the captain that Looney is a rich and famous mining engineer.

Aboard ship, Looney makes the acquaintance of Ellen Saunders, who is being followed by two strangers trying to steal her money. Befriended by kindly Senator Powell, he comes up with a suggestion that saves a company a considerable amount of time and money, impressing both Ellen and the senator, who turns out to be the famed engineer, traveling incognito.
