Synopsis

Dr. Cecil James and his daughter, Grace, accompanied by her maid, Mira, journey to Africa to investigate Jack Woods, manager of the Consolidated Diamond Mining Co., who has used the excuse of a native plague to close the mine and hold up shipments. Being advised by his men of the doctor's visit, he has the party waylaid by Swahili; the two girls flee and Jack "rescues" them, taking them to the mine dwelling. Fearing for their safety, Sir Henry Blake sends his son, Art, after them, and he succeeds in eluding the gang at the mine. Art sneaks into the Swahili village and frees the doctor but is himself captured and thrown in a lions' den, from which, however, he escapes. Jack forces Grace to accompany him in a getaway by air. Art pursues in another plane and in an air battle subdues the villain, who falls to his death.
