The young men are good friends, though both love Marcia, the daughter of their chief. Not until Lieutenant Lydell saves Marcia's baby sister from drowning, does the girl realize that it is Lydell whom she really loves. Selbert, quick to see that she has made up her mind, casts about for means to win Marcia for himself. He overhears Lydell indignantly refusing to sell certain newly completed plans to Paul Zare, who offers him a handsome bribe. Selbert is greatly in need of funds to cover his gambling debts. He steals the plans, barters them to the spy, and then sets about to fasten the crime upon his rival. This is nearly accomplished when, to the astonishment of both Lydell and Selbert, the "spy," Zare, appears, salutes the Major, and returns into his keeping the stolen papers. Zare is an employee in the secret service. The guilty officer is brought to justice, and Lydell is rewarded with promotion and the girl he loves. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
