Residing near the Mexican border, Hiram, John and Eddie, the suitors, start immediately for a Mexican. Eddie is the first to come near one, but when he gets a good look at him he turns and sees with the Mexican close upon him. Finally Eddie is caught by the Mexican, who asks him for a match. As he is lighting his cigar, Eddie covers the Mexican, who proves to be a general, with his guns and makes the prisoner change clothes with him. Dressed in this fashion Eddie leaves the Mexican behind the bushes and proceeds, only to come upon a band of Mexicans dragging a Gatling gun, who, thinking him a general, salute him. As Eddie is examining the Gatling gun the disrobed Mexican comes upon the party, who, seeing the true state of affairs, are about to turn upon him, when Eddie orders them to march before the gun. In the meantime, John has arrived at Alice's home with a tramp dressed in a Mexican uniform whom he had captured going with the salt to the real Mexican general. He succeeds in making a deep impression upon Alice and is about to be married when he discovers Eddie and the Mexicans coming up the road. With a few leaps he is out of sight and Eddie is given the hand of Alice. Much the same fate happened to Hiram before be discovered John coming up the road.
