Synopsis
Phil Burton, a farmer's son, attends Harvard College, training to be a mining engineer. While prospecting in the hills near his home, he meets an old prospector who dies and leaves his mine to Phil. The only other living heir is his long-lost niece. Back in New York, Phil meets Count Nicasio, his wife Claudia, and her sister Jean, with whom Phil falls in love. Devlin, a business associate, also is courting Jean. Phil's childhood friend Effie is discovered to be the mining heiress when Devlin tries to steal the property from her, and Devlin's dishonest character is exposed by Phil. Eventually, Phil and Jean marry and Effie receives her rightful fortune.
