His neighbor and landlord, Singleton, is at the saime time presented with twin daughters. A deputy sheriff comes to the house of Haskins, while the wife is still in a nervous state, and demands the rent, or their ejection. The farmer asks for time, pointing to the condition of his wife. The deputy reports to Single ton who sends him back to put Has kins out. He enlists the aid of two other deputies and goes to the house to put Mrs. Haskins out. Silas arrives in vhe midst of the confusion and throws the deputies out. While doing this, Mrs. Haskins temporarily con fused, hides the baby in a bureau drawer. The child suffocates. When Haskins returned and found out what what had been done he decides to bury the child to shield his wife from her insane act. When he was doing so Singleton’s nurse appeared at the top of the hill with a. baby carriage, and owing to her carelessness the carriage escapes from her and plunges over a rocky precipice and falls at Haskins’ feet. The babies are unhurt, so Has kins finds. He determines to substi tute the dead for one in the carriage in order to save his wife’s reason. The deception works. Shortly after he de cides to go West and start life anew. Twenty years pass and the twin sis ters, ignorant of their relations, grow to womanhood. Alice has become an orphan and is employed as stenograph er by a young business man whom she soon marries. Mary tends bar for her father at a little saloon in the West. High-hat Harry, “good-fellow” gamb ler is insulted in the bar by cow punchers and throws them out. He tells Mary he will stay as the town is nice and quiet. He proposes to Mary, she tells him that If he will stop gambling and go to some big city and live a year she will marry him. He resistors at a hotel, sees Alice, the twin, and thinks it is Mary. He goes up to her and of course she does not recog nize him. He writes a letter to her recalling the past. Her husband see ing it and thinking that she is unture orders her from the house. The hus band and wife, Harry and Mary are all re-united when the truth is re vealed. It’s all interesting.
