War&apos;s Havoc

News of Sumter's fall interrupts the wedding of Capt. Faulkner and Jennie McPherson. The ceremony is completed, however, and the dashing young Confederate leaves for the front. A year later Faulkner and his regiment are quartered near his old home. The Confederates are just making camp when word is received that the Federals are on their way by rail. Hundreds of bluecoats, loaded on flat cars, are speeding to attack the enemy, and the Southerners beat a hasty retreat. Mrs. Faulkner, by supreme strategy, secures information of value to her husband. Mammy Fanny, a faithful negro slave, succeeds in carrying the message by a clever ruse, and Faulkner arranges a code of signals with his wife. The daring woman is then able to inform Faulkner of the departure of the Federals. She cuts the wires and the Northern operator attempts to send his warning from an instrument which he carries to a tree, but a shot from Mrs. Faulkner's pistol brings him to the ground. The incomplete message, however, furnishes a clew to the operator up the line. He stops the engine, gives the warning and bids the Federals speed backwards on the train. When the brave wife finds her plans being frustrated, she decides to make a strenuous effort to prevent the arrival of the train load of Federals. She and Mammy Fanny come to the track, where another locomotive is standing. At the point of their pistols they force the fireman to take to the woods and the engineer is made to drive the engine ahead. Soon the locomotive dashes on to a high trestle. The oncoming train bearing the enemy is steaming toward them. The engineer is forced to leap for his life and the two women jump into the water, thirty feet below. With a crash the two locomotives come together and the brave women have saved the day. As the sun goes down, the victorious flag of the Confederates floats over the home and Faulkner is happily reunited with his wife.
