Franklin Ritchie, Jack Drumier, Louise Vale, Kate Bruce, Irene Howley, George Morgan, Charles Mailes
A four-part production with a strong cast. The action starts in a moonshiner's cabin in the mountains, and leads through the slums of city life up to the district attorney's and governor's office. The unjustly convicted victim is to be electrocuted at daybreak. A violent storm breaks the telephone communications, fells a tree across the railroad which stops the messenger, kills a carrier pigeon bearing the message, which is relayed by wireless from a military post, and finally reaches the prison, while the victim is in the chair and the electrician's hand upon the deadly lever.

A beautiful modern European court drama, in which the real prince and princess prefer to remain incognito and each deputizes another to officially represent them. In the end, both the real prince and princess and their substitutes participate in a double wedding, but not before there has been some romantic love-making and heroic hand to hand fighting.
