- On his wedding day, Antoine falls madly in love with Léa, his mother-in-law.
- "Black Nissen" is one of the "boys" of a western mining camp. He is known as "Black Nissen" because of his surly and disagreeable character. As usual, when pay day arrives he has nothing coming to him, as his bad habits keep him constantly in debt. The rest of the boys, enriched by the dollars handed to them by their chief, make off for the saloon to gamble and make merry. "Black Nissen" cannot join them as he is absolutely broke. While slouching away, an attractive woman, named Margaret, crosses his path. She is under his influence and he forces her to give up all the money in her possession. He saunters off to the saloon to be with the rest. At the table a heated argument comes up and guns are quickly drawn. "Black Nissen" recognizing discretion as the better part of valor, beats a hasty retreat. Still faced with the need for money, he plans to rob the chief, whom he has seen hide some cans in a box beneath the bed of his cabin. He awaits a favorable opportunity, and then forces Margaret, his unwilling slave, to climb through the cabin window to secure the box. The chief, with his Chinese servant, returns just at this moment and captures Margaret. Because she is a woman, the rough justice meted out to the thief in the west is tempered by mercy. She is set upon a horse and expelled from camp. From fear of "Black Nissen," Margaret keeps her actions secret and does not expose the bully. When the hubbub is quieted down, "Black Nissen" endeavors to rob the chief himself.With the stolen plans he goes to Europe, and by constant study succeeds in perfecting the dynamite motor which is destined to revolutionize motor boat propulsion. He carries off a valuable trophy at a big regatta, winning at the same time large sums in wages. Subsequently he ingratiates himself in the favor of Col. von Wentheim, President of the Motor Boat Club, and immediately lays siege to the affections of his charming daughter Ellen. One day while out sailing with Ellen, a sudden squall overturns their yacht, and the pair are soon struggling for life in the water. "Black Nissen" swims ashore and gives the alarm. A search party is organized, but they find no trace of the girl. Ellen is rescued, however, by William, son of an old barger. His sweetheart is a charming girl, who happens to be none other than Margaret. This being one of those coincidences which everyday life reveals as stranger than fiction. Margaret discovers that a reward of $5,000 is offered by von Wentheim for news of his daughter, and is fortunate enough to be the lucky recipient of same. After giving the colonel the information he desires, to her surprise she finds that "Black Nissen" is commissioned to bring Ellen home. Under the name of Evinrude, he has outwardly acquired the semblance of a gentleman, but his innate brutality is once again betrayed. Incensed by Margaret's slow progress with the oars, he strikes her viciously. Reaching the barge and finding no one on deck. In a fit of rage he thrusts an oar through the bottom of the tiny craft and with a push of the foot sends the rapidly foundering boat adrift. Ellen, much against her will, returns home under the escort of "Black Nissen."
