Pedro's old sweetheart, Juanita, becomes very jealous. Jim Carson, a dashing easterner, comes to the Colonel's ranch with a letter of introduction and soon occupies the biggest corner in Helen's heart, much to Pedro's displeasure. The foreman attempts to undermine Jim by letting him ride Buck, an unmanageable bucking horse. Jim keeps his seat and, on dismounting, knocks the Mexican down. A fight follows, with victory going to the easterner, which fact makes Jim popular with the boys and gains him the enmity of Pedro, who vows to be revenged. At the first opportunity he seriously wounds young Carson and carries Helen to a deserted shack. Jealous Juanita has not been idle. She follows the couple and lies in wait, Helen is soon left alone, a prisoner in the shack, to which Juanita fiendishly sets fire. She then overtakes Pedro and pleads with him. Meanwhile Jim has managed to ride back to the ranch and gives the alarm. Col. Person, his cowboys and the wounded man, ride hard, bent on capturing the villain. They come upon Pedro and Juanita, but the wily Mexican gives them the slip and is only caught after a most thrilling chase. At the point of a gun, he is forced to tell of Helen's hiding-place. The girl is saved in the nick of time and the Mexican is left to the tender mercy of the boys. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
