Rumors of war are in the air, hut Dixie insists upon going and her parents finally consent. The American girl finds a great deal to interest her in Cuba and spends many happy hours at the elegant Dias estate. One day a party of Cuban refugees dash into the house with the alarming news that they are pursued by Spanish soldiers. The pursuers, headed by a tyrant, Don Miguel, arrive and take possession of the Dias home. Don Miguel begins a series of persecutions and Dias determines upon a daring dash for liberty. He and the two girls disguise themselves as Cuban servants and steal from the house under the cover of darkness, only to be captured and led to prison. Meanwhile American troops arrive on the island and Dixie's brother, Capt. James Hardie, is a member of the expedition. Don Miguel taunts his prisoners and offers them liberty if Dixie will consent to become his bride. The girl recoils in dismay and the hot-blooded Dias makes matters worse by attacking the tyrant. That night the three captives succeed in removing the bars from the tower window. Dixie dives into the water below and swims across to the American camp, where she finds her brother. The next day Capt. Hardie's troops attack the prison and capture the infamous Don Miguel. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
