Washington," he is stunned as the maid replies that none one of that name has ever lived there. Dejected, Ice makes his way to the water front, where he stands watching the ships. He is approached by Moose Holloran and Squint McGann, confederates of "Admiral" Bates, and engaged in the very lucrative business of shanghaing. They are affable, and have no trouble in persuading Ice to accompany them to Bates' resort on the Barbary Coast. Arrived, however, they fail to get Ice drunk, and finally leave him in the little back room of the "honky-tonk" while they enter the dance hall and solicit the aid of Betty. She makes her way to the back room where Ice sits. There is a tragio meeting between Ice and Betty, in which Ice bitterly denounces her and tells her that if she is not good no one is. Refusing to listen to her pleas. Ice throws her from him and enters the dance hall. After a terrific fight with Squint and Moose, Ice finally leaves the place, and, his faith in women shattered, returns to the mountains. How he again meets with Betty, and forgives her; how she learns he was a bandit, and forgives him, is told in thrilling detail. A cowboy race, one of the most spectacular scenes ever filmed, is the finish to the picture. It wins Ice an honest stake and the girl he loves. 20
