Synopsis: [Variety, 16 March 1927, page 19] Johnnie Walker is two people in this picture. The odd man is his bearded brother, killed early by a human vulture who preys on luckless prospectors . . . . Scene switches to the city, where the smooth-shaven twin tracks down the murderers through the discovery of a mating glove by Silverstreak in the home of the gal’s guardian. Walker stages a night club scrap with Wheeler Oakman, assistant villain.
