An Indian girl of the Yaqui tribe, by name Silver Arrow, is fascinated by the handsome Mexican. She follows him when he goes to play in front of the old convent, and is delighted when he exchanges a few words with her. Passing a flower seller, she buys a bunch of roses, and proceeding to the cottage where the handsome Pedro is sitting in the garden, she watches her opportunity when he goes inside for a minute, to lay the flowers, tied with a hand taken front her hair, on his chair. Watching from behind a wall, she sees him take a rose and pin it on his coat. She then sees his sweetheart Marguerita come up and kiss him, and seeing the flower, she accuses him of deceiving her. She soon forgives Pedro and vents her jealousy by trampling on the flowers. Silver Arrow is morose, and seeing that she is not preferred to Marguerita, swears vengeance. A few days later the Indian maid is up in a tree recovering a bird she has shot with her arrow, when Pedro comes along disguised as a cowboy. Keeping quiet, she sees him hold up the express messenger as he rides along, and taking the booty, hide it among some shrubs. Stealing up to the cottage, she is about to stab Marguerita with a dagger when Pedro in the nick of time shoots it out of her hand. She denounces Pedro as a bandit and goes on her way. Marguerita ascertains from Pedro that the Yaqui girl's words are true, and insists that they must prevent the girl from informing the authorities. They follow after her, and scion catching up, overpower her and bind her on the back of a large white horse without bridle or saddle. They send him with his burden towards the boundless prairie. An Indian on a hill sees the horse and rushes to a nearby camp and obtains the aid of the cowboys, who are celebrating a roundup. They all mount and after a long chase one of the boys manages to lasso the white horse. Unbound, Silver Arrow tells her story and they all proceed to the Mexican's cottage. He sees them coming, led by the Indian girl, and knows that all is up. Shots are exchanged, but with so many against him, Pedro is soon riddled with bullets. Marguerita falls and weeps over his body and as she turns and sees Silver Arrow, says: "This is your work: see what you have done." But the Indian girl, satisfied at her revenge, without a tremor replies: "I swore if I no have him, you no have him." Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
