"THE SPOILERS” AT THE DIXIE FRIDAY Synopsis of The Play Glenister and Dextry, co-own ers of the “Midas.” the richest mine in Alaska, after celebrating their good fortune, leave Nome to spend the winter in the but before leaving Glenister arrives at an under standing with and bids good-bye to Cherry Malotte, a dance-hall girl who has become interested in him. Before their return to Alas ka in the following spring a plot is hatched in Washington, D. C., to juggle the Alaskan land laws in such a manner as to rob all the rich miners of their property, and to that end a corrupt judge is ap pointed with instructions to obey the orders of Alex McNamara, the genius of the entire conspi racy. The judge is dispatched to Nome at once, but on the eve of sailing from Seattle he is taken ill and is forced to entrust certain important documents to his niece, Helen Chester, who thus becomes the innocent agent of the conspi rators. Helen sails, but enroute to Nome smallpox breaks out on theshipand she is threatened with thirty days’ quarantine. She es capes with the assistance of Glen ister and Dextry. The two men are ignorant of the nature of Hel ens’ errand, and gallantly fight and defeat her pursuers, then smuggle her on board their own ship and protect her until she ar rives at Nome. In due time, Judge Stillman and McNamara arrive in Nome and with the help of Struve’s rascally firm begih their machinations. The new faction shortly assumes control of all the mines, including the “Midas,*’ and Glenister, be cause of his loye for Helen, pre vents the miners from using vio lence against Judge Stillman and prevails upon them to let the law take its course. Cherry Malotte. the beautifnl dance-hall girl, re turns from Dawson City, discov ers Glenister’s love for Helen and determines to combat it. In this she is assisted by the Broncho Kid, a gambler and an outcast, who has recognized in Helen Chester his own sister, whom he had not seen since boyhood, and who misinterprets Glenister’s feeling for Helen. Glenister and Dextry find that the Nome court will grant them no relief and de cide to send their lawyer. Bill Wheaton, hack to San Francisco with an appeal to the Federal courts. To secure money for this purpose they arrange to rob the sluices of their own mine, which they succeed in doing, but are saved from capture by Helen. Wheaton returns from San Francisco with a writ from the Federal Court which Stillman re fuses to recognize, thus making plain the nature of the conspira cy. Becoming fearful of outright violence, McNamara undertakes to remove the gold dust taken from the “Midas” and other mines to a place of greater safe ty, but Glenister and his friends storm the bank and are prevented from taking forcible possession of the gold only by the timely ar rival of troops. The miners dynamite the “Midas” anddefeat their enemies when Glenister hears of Helen’s danger and rides headlong to her rescue. He arrives only to find Struve badly wounded and to hear that Helen has gone away with the Broncho Kid. Heedless now of all save Helen’s safety, Glenister rides into town and there encounters McNamara at Struve’s office. The two men fight a terrific hand-to-hahd bat tle, in which Glenister triumphs. Wheaton arrives in time to effect the arrest of the conspira tors on instructions from the Fed eral Court and Helen produces the proofs of guilt which she se cured from Struve. Justice is done and Helen confesses her love for the man she had helped to wrong.
