Desc: A Prince in a Pawnshop: Directed by Paul Scardon. With Barney Bernard, Garry McGarry, Bobby Connelly, Charlotte Ives. David Solomon, a wealthy banker, is merciless in his dealings with his rich clients, from whom he exacts the highest interest. He aids the poor as much as possible. To facilitate his kindness among the people of the Ghetto, he runs there a pawnshop, unlike all others, for to the needy he measures out money, not according to the value of the articles they offer, but according to their needs. David's son, Maurice, is given to high living. It grieves his father, who is, however, consoled by the fact that his daughter, Ethel, seconds her father's charities by maintaining a day nursery for the children of the poor. One day David sees a young girl fall unconscious in the street. He takes her to the hospital where the doctor tells him that the girl, Mary, is suffering from exhaustion. David's heart is touched and he resolves to make Mary's future his own care. When she has regained her strength he finds her a position as a model in a dress house of a friend, Silver. Ethel visits the dress house to buy gowns, bringing Maurice with her. He sees Mary for the second time, having noticed her upon the street. Maurice arranges to meet Mary under an assumed name, and pursues his courtship with all seeming love. She so learns to worship Maurice that she gives him all, not stopping to count the cost, nor to demand the wedding ring. For a brief while Mary tastes of a great happiness, but Stevins, the man for whom she once worked, and who, because she would not encourage his advances, drove her from every honest position, naming her as a thief, visits the dress house to get gowns for "The Bunch of Flowers," a set of girls so termed by Maurice who has been much in their company. He recognizes Mary, repeats the accusation, and her employer discharges her. Mary returns to the little flat supported by Maurice, where she tells her story. Maurice has begun to tire of her. He seeks Stevins, who tells a seemingly truthful story. Maurice believes it and leaves Mary, writing to this effect. He, however, does not know that the girl he has wronged is about to become a mother. Six years elapse, and we find Mary and her little son, living in poverty. Again she is rescued by David Soloman, who has called to see a deserving case next door to Mary, the object of his charity being Mrs. Payne, the landlady who drove Mary from her door, and who is now a paralytic. Mary tells David her story, showing him the letter from her lover. He recognizes the writing of his own son. He takes his grandson home with him where the child is seen by Maurice, who is conscience stricken. Heinstitutes a search for Mary. Stevins, the man who hounded Mary, needs a further extension of his loan from David. But David, having learned what he has done, Mary forces him to the wall and ruins him. Goldstein, who has been a faithful secretary to David, resigns. He loves the daughter of David, but being a poor man does not declare his love and so decides to leave for other parts of the country. David has watched the love which has existed between Ethel and Goldstein, and gives Goldstein a check for a large amount, quite sufficient to start them on their honeymoon. David informs Maurice by telegraph, not signing his name, where Mary may he found. He then goes to her with her little son. Maurice arrives, and makes reparation by marrying Mary.
