The Sheriff&apos;s Girl

Ben Thompson is the Sheriff of Loredo County, Arizona. Ben and fear have never been on speaking terms. Ben is visiting his sweetheart, Belle Gordon. Sandy Jones, who runs the poker games at the Horseshoe Gambling Saloon, rushes up and informs the Sheriff that he is wanted in a hurry, our first scene has shown the interior of the Horseshoe gambling room. Bad Bill and his gang have entered and held up Sandy Jones, have taken all of his money and jewelry and have abducted "Big Lizzie," one of the dancing girls. The Sheriff bids his sweetheart good-bye and after a brief investigation at the Horseshoe, he dashes off, accompanied by a trusty lieutenant, in pursuit of the bad man. An exciting chase on horseback follows, and we show real riding of a kind that makes one hold his breath as the Sheriff and his man follow the trail of the four outlaws. The bad men catch sight of the Sheriff following them, and, leaving the girl beside the road, they double back, hoping to catch the Sheriff and finish him. Ben is as tricky as a fox. Making a detour, he gets behind the outlaws, finds the girl, and conceives a bold plan for capturing Bill. He hides the girl and his horse in the woods, then, disguised in the girl's mantilla, he seats himself at the roadside and awaits the coming of Bill. Bill returns, places him arm affectionately around what he supposes to be the girl, and the next instant he is startled to see Ben Thompson's six-shooter shoved into his face and to hear the command "Hands Up!" Ben takes the girl and Bad Bill back to town and deposits Bill in the county jail. Bad Bill's accomplices abduct Belle, the Sheriff's girl, carry her off and tie her to an old post on the bank of the river. Then they send a note to the Sheriff, in which they inform him that if he does not release Bad Bill within three hours, the rising tide of the river will drown his sweetheart. The Sheriff determines to be faithful to his duly as Sheriff and also to save his girl. A wild ride brings him up to where the outlaws are resting. Here follows a thrilling revolver fight, three men on horseback dashing down a steep hill against the plucky Sheriff. Two of the outlaws are killed, and the Sheriff pursuing the third one comes to the point on the river bank where his girl is waiting in agony a fearful death. He dashes into the water, unties the girl and lifts her head, just in time to rescue her from a watery grave.
