Synopsis

Phil Dolan, known as Black Jack because of his ability at cards, does a favor for Nancy Blake, a pretty girl in distress. She reciprocates by vamping the judge when Phil is brought before him for shiftlessness. Three pieces of a silver dollar on which is indented the map of a mine are held by the girl, Phil, and a rustler. Phil rescues her from the rustlers, and they visit the leader, from whom Phil obtains his portion of the coin. Subsequently, Phil and Nancy are captured by the gang, but they escape; holding off the rustlers, they make their way to the hidden ore mine, where, at the crucial moment, the sheriff's posse appears to capture the gang.
