To save her father's honor from tarnish, Lucille Love, tho General's daughter, under takes to regain possession of the documents single-handed. After series of thrilling chases over land and sea and after she has regained tho papers, Lucille is picked up from one of the South Sea islands by i sailing vessel. Little does she renl lze, however, that the vessel is owned iy her enemy, Hugo Loubeque, and that l.e is aboard the, same vessel. As soon as Loubeque discovers that Lucille is aboard the boat, with; the coveted documents, ho disguises :is a Chinese mandarin to further his plans in regaining the papers. Mean- wheli Lucille is impressed by two members of the crew. The first is the captain, who is not long in showing her that ho has evil designs upon her. The escond is the first mate, a gruff old tar, with whom she makes friends. One night the captain at tackes Lucille, and she is only saved from his brutality by the timely in torference of Loubeque. The girl recognizes the spy despite his dis guise, and puts herself on guard against him. Knowing that the na- pers must be valuable, the caotain steals them from Lucille's cahin gain the captain attacks her. This time the girl draws a revolver, forces the captain to the deck and shows him up to the crew as a coward. By this time there is a general feeling of un rest among the members of the crew. Tho time comes however, when the ulors divide and carry on an armed mutiny. A few cast their lot with Lucille and the rest side with the captain. A fierce battle between con tending forces is then waged upon the deck of the ship. At a critical moment when Lucille and her follow ers seem doomed, Loubeque comes unexpectedly to tho girls aid and for an instant the danger is passed. But only, for nn instant because in the thick of the fray a battleship is sighted. Realizing that the boat is carrying contraband arms' to China and that ctfpturq will mean impris onment, those of the crew who were Lucille's friends tun against her and oin the captain. Again in command the cap'tain has Lobeque thrown over board and. for Lucille he has even a worse fate planned. She is placed in row boat with a jug of water and cast adrift on. the South Seas. When she has drifted some distance from the ship, she rescues Lobeque from the water. In the small boat there is but sufficient water to last a few lays. Lobeque, however, shows the greatest consideration for the help less girl and when tho chill of night comes ho covers her with 4iis own coat. They are alone, adrift uoon the South Seas and neither has the doc uments, the quest of which has ceus- ed them to face sa many dangers.
