Plot: Mike Callahan has but one collar, and that soiled, to attend the annual outing of the Bricklayers' Union with, so he sends it to Wing Lee, the Chinaman's, to have it done up in a rush. The boy loses the very important half-ticket; consequently when Mike calls for his collar he is told with many gestures, No tickee, no washee. Mike gets mad and gives battle to the Chinks, but they are too many for him and he has to run for his life, pursued by the whole crowd of Chinamen. An exciting chase follows, and the police force are dragged from their various pursuits of fishing, sleeping and guiding schooners over the bar to join in the chase, and they finally succeed in corralling the pursuers and the pursued. All march back to the laundry, where Mike, escorted by the police, searches until he finds his collar, just in time to join the Local Union in the parade.
