CAST Westcott Jack Perrin Stella Kathleen O'Connor Enright Henry Barrows Lacey Leonard Clapham Celeste _ Gertrude Astor Lion Man Mack Wright WESTCOTT and Stella, caught in the explosion in the mine, are rescued by the Lion Man. In leaving the tunnel they come across the mother lode that has been opened up by the explosion, and realize that they must go to the land office at Quartzite at once and record the mine. But Enright, Lacey and Celeste also discover the lode, put up their notices and hastily ride for the land office. Some of their men they despatch to prevent Westcott and Stella from reaching Quartzite. Westcott and Stella are leaving by auto as these men ride up, open fire on them, and in so doing puncture their gasoline tank. Running out of gasoline, Westcott leaves to obtain some from a ranch house, and Stella is made a captive by the men, who have followed them. Westcott, returning, outwits them by a ruse, frees Stella, and they proceed on. The Lion Man, who has overheard Enright, Lacey and Celeste planning to beat Westcott and Stella to the land office, comes to Quartzite, and determining to hold the land agent until Westcott and Stella arrive, he goes to his cabin and makes him a prisoner. Enright, Lacey and Celeste hide as they see Westcott and Stella approaching. Finding that the land office will not open for another half hour, Westcott and Stella decide to have a bite to eat. Enright and Celeste decide to go to the land agent's home and return to the office with him. Lacey is despatched to get rid of Westcott. He manages to lure him from the restaurant to which he and Stella had gone, knocks him senseless and throws him into the yard of an alligator farm. Enright and Celeste arrive at the land agent's cabin, and succeed in cornering the Lion Man. Lacey, having gotten rid of Westcott, decides to put Stella out of the way as well. As she is seated by an open window, he tosses in his rope, managing to get it over her shoulders. The other end of the rope is tied to a horse, which is frightened and dashes off, dragging Stella from the restaurant window. Making the Big Guns for General Pershing. — Watertown, Mass.
