Synopsis
After Bruce Burt and his partner, Slim Naudain, strike gold, Slim goes insane, and while trying to kill Bruce, falls on his own knife and dies. Then, concerned that Slim's family should get a fair share of the gold, Bruce locates Slim's sister Helen. Having heard of the fortune, however, J. Victor Sprudell determines to get it all for himself, and so decides that Bruce must be eliminated. As a result, Sprudell forges a diary and, showing it to Helen, claims that Slim wrote it. In the diary, Helen reads about Bruce's irrational behavior, and so comes to believe that it was Bruce who killed her brother. Before Bruce can be tried, however, a dance hall girl, whom he had once saved from being beaten up by a cowboy, decides to play the role of detective. She uncovers Sprudell's plot and forces him to confess, after which Bruce and Helen are married.
