The Coquette Synopsis

Knowing that the examination about to be made of his books will reveal his peculations, Cadwell confesses to his daughter. Enlisting the aid of Don, her sweetheart, who is employed in the same office, Doris saves her father from disgrace. As the result, however, the crime is shifted to Don's shoulders and the boy is sent to prison. This, although Hall, his employer, believes him innocent. Later, Cadwell compels Doris to become engaged to Lane, a man of wealth. Determined to wed no one but Don, Doris fascinates Harris, one of the prison guards, and induces him to aid her in her plan to free Don. In turn, she promises to become Harris's wife. Don escapes from jail, aided by the keeper. The two are joined by Doris and make a break for liberty in the girl's auto. The pursuit is taken up and in the running fight which ensues, Harris meets his death. Cadwell learns of the escape and does all he can to bring about the capture of the fugitives. Don and Doris are wed. Hunted, the two are on the verge of desperation when they accidentally meet Hall. Resolved to shield her father no longer, Doris tells Hall the truth. The latter promptly takes the girl and the escaped prisoner to see his friend, the Governor. Cadwell is present during this interview. The father denounces Doris's story, but a slip of the tongue reveals the truth, the real culprit is overtaken by the retribution while Doris and Don know happiness once more.

A Trip to the Wonderland of America Synopsis

This fascinating region was set apart as a Government Reservation, to be known as Yellowstone Park, in 1S72. The park proper is about 62 miles long, from north to south, and 54 miles wide. While the tourist may reach the park entrance by rail, it has been decreed by Uncle Sam that beyond the Great Lava Arch Gateway the iron horse shall not trespass. So here leaving the pathway of steel we take our place on one of the six-horse coaches that run from Gardiner up to Mammoth Hot Springs. Coaching, Troops, Morris Basin, Great Fountain, Pack mules, Riverside Geyser, Old Faithful, Deer and Bear, Upper Falls, Canyon, Field Glasses. Standing on a balcony at Artist's Point we take up the field glass to have a tele-photo panorama of these weird walls with their clinging pine trees. We look down the Great Gorge. On either side walls of exquisite color rise with here and there pinnacle-like great church spires. Above our heads fly eagles who build their nests and raise their young on the top of these lofty peaks. The scene is a powerful one and beyond words, but the Great Falls add force and quality of action which tempers and dignities the whole scene. This enormous volume of water that looks like a curtain of lace, tumbles over a cliff of volcanic rock 310 feet. Here the traveler finds himself spellbound, held by the pure beauty of the scene. In turning away he pauses to marvel at the wonders of nature and the beauties of our great national playground.
