Synopsis

Cyrus Higgins, a minister, and Johnathon [sic] Moses Chi Wu Lung, his Chinese servant, arrive in a rough Southern town intent on converting the populace. Higgins makes an enemy of deputy sheriff Jasper Stone when he makes the brute apologize for trying to attack and insult the town belle, Sally Phillips. Higgins defeats Stone in a fist fight, thus winning the admiration of the townspeople and the nickname "Cyclone." Sally is sent to school under Cyclone's sister Mary's protection, and when she returns, she and Cyclone confess their mutual love.
