Rose angrily resents his actions, whereupon he becomes more insistent and Rose's lover. Lieutenant King, of the U.S. Cavalry, arrives upon the scene in time to witness the annoyance that his sweetheart is being subject to. It doesn't take long for the lieutenant to interpose and he sends Pedro upon his way with a warning that any repetition of this action will result disastrously for him. The Mexican determines to get even. He follows the lieutenant and his sweetheart, witnesses the presentation by the lieutenant to his sweetheart of a medallion portrait, and as they separate, mounts his horse and follows the officer, who is homeward bound. Stealthily creeping up, Pedro takes advantage of the officer's mental abstraction to lasso him and drag him from his horse. He quickly proceeds to tie the unconscious man with his lariat and to drag him along the ground. Arriving upon the edge of a precipice overlooking a ravine, Pedro takes the unconscious man and hurls him over the brink. Fearful of intervention, he hurries from the scene of his crime, but fortune seemed to have favored the victim, for as he is hurled over the edge of the chasm the lariat with which he was bound wraps itself about a projecting stump, which stops his fall. In the meantime the American camp is startled to see the lieutenant's horse dash into camp riderless. The intelligent animal indicated his desire that someone accompany him back, and the commanding officer accordingly leads a column of troops after the horse, which takes them back to the point where Pedro lassoed the lieutenant. Finding his hat, it is an easy matter for them to trace the crime, and they arrive at the cliff just in time to rescue the lieutenant. Pedro, feeling that his hated rival was put out of his way, hurries back to the ranch house with the intention of inflicting further revenge upon Rose. His diabolical intentions are frustrated by the unexpected appearance of the rescuing party of the lieutenant whose life was saved.

- It often happens that very loving wives are also very jealous of the objects of their affections. A young salesman in a dry goods house often heard this statement made, but laughed it to scorn. His wife was devoted to him and to their little daughter, and as far as jealousy was concerned, why, she was incapable of so base an impulse. His opinion was put to the test. The head of his firm detailed him to entertain a lady buyer from an out-of-town concern. He took the customer to the theater, and to dinner at a high-priced restaurant. His wife happened to see him with the woman, at once arrived at the wrong conclusion, and was jealous. When the salesman arrived home there was a quarrel.

- Bessie Barton, a young girl of the Kentucky Mountains, is loved and courted by Robert Clayton, a wealthy young man from the blue-grass district. Jack Martin, a mountaineer, is also in love with Bessie and resents Clayton's attention to the girl. The girl lives alone in a cabin situated on a high crag in the mountains, and for her protection there is a small drawbridge suspended from a sturdy oak, in front of her door, which, when raised, makes her home inaccessible. Here the orphan girl grows into magnificent womanhood. Clayton is proud of his sweetheart and decides to introduce her to his blue-grass friends. He prevails upon a number of them to accompany him to the girl's lonely home and publicly invite her to a May Day party which he is going to give on the lawn in front of his beautiful country home. Martin, the jealous mountaineer, determines to kill his rival. As Clayton and his friends are leaving, he appears with murder in his heart: but, in his blind rage, he falls to notice that Bessie is watching him in her anxiety and hope for the safe departure of her sweetheart and his friends. The villain raises his rifle to bring his rival to the earth, but the girl springs against him and diverts his aim; then severely upbraids him, disowns his acquaintance, and bids him leave her. On her way to the party, Martin halts the girl and tries to prevent her going. She lashes her horse and leaves him muttering bitter curses. When Bessie arrives at the party, Clayton introduces her to his aristocratic friends. The ladies laugh at her rustic apparel and decline to recognize her. The scene closes with Clayton's assertion that an insult to the lady is an insult to him; for she is to be his wife; which he reveals by comforting the abused girl. We next see a gang of laborers carrying dynamite from a shed to a nearby cut, preparatory to blasting the way for a new railroad. With jealous rage still smoldering in his heart, Martin comes upon the scene, steals one of the bombs and departs with the intention of destroying his rival's property. We see Bessie return to her mountain home, to again find her unwelcomed mountain lover waiting to make a last appeal. She tells him she does not and never could love him. He threatens to make her do so. She flees across the drawbridge and raises it barely in time to prevent his pursuit. He sees his successful rival approaching and prepares to kill him. Clayton arrives and climbs the rock steps toward his sweetheart's cabin. Martin approaches and covers him with his gun; ordering him to throw up his hands and say his prayers. Young Clayton, though facing sure death, tells Martin he is a coward to shoot an unarmed man. Martin's better nature gets the upper hand of his jealousy; he lays aside his gun and knife, declaring they are now equal. It is two hundred feet to the rocks below, and may the best man win. After a fierce struggle, his superior strength gives him the advantage and Clayton is knocked down, falling insensible at his rival's feet. Martin calls to mind the dynamite bomb he has stolen and decides it will be better to destroy the man himself than his property. He lights the fuse and lays the dynamite stick by his enemy. But the girl might rescue him or be hurled to death with him. His rifle! the rope! It is an easy matter with his deadly aim to remove that possibility. The bridge fails, the bomb is fusing, and Martin quickly departs, satisfied that the dynamite will remove all trace of the crime he intends to commit. The report of his rifle brings Bessie to the door, she takes in the situation at a glance, starts to let down the bridge to go to her lover's assistance. It is gone; but the rope is there. Must she see him die? No: the rope! to grasp it! swing across to the ledge, run to the helpless man, and throw the hissing stick of dynamite into the ravine far below. Just in the nick of time, this thrilling rescue is accomplished by the brave girl, and, with her sweetheart's unconscious head pillowed in her arms and as a great smoke rises from the chasm below, we leave them to that future that is always kind to brave and true hearts.
