- Peggy Martin and her father need mortgage money from the oil well leased to a shady promoter, Brill, who receives a bribe from the foreclosing landlord to suspend the working, and also, by faking the well, which he knows is barren, scoops a profit on the shares. Peggy has a madcap girl friend, Tex, who goes to "vamp" Brill in order to save the Martins. Tex is saved from Brill's clutches by Billy, a young man whom Peggy knows by correspondence only. The landlord fires the well out of revenge, and Peggy is saved from its summit by a rope from an airplane containing Billy and a friend. The land is bought by a company, and the lovers come together.
- Andy Walker, a gold prospector in Hell's Gap, Arizona, time and again gambles away the money he needs to bring his daughter Madge to live with him. Lone Hand Wilson, a solitary fellow who shuns the company of women, helps Andy win the thousand dollars he needs, but soon afterwards Andy is murdered. The orphaned Madge finally arrives in Hell's Gap and falls in love with Wilson, who helps to defend her interests. Wilson is charged with Andy's murder, however, and only clears himself after considerable effort. He and Madge then are reconciled.
