He writes a note to his sweetheart. Ellen, requesting her to meet him. Steve comes upon a Moqui funeral canoe bearing the body of White Cloud, Chief Big Elk's squaw. He finds that the woman is not dead, but in a comatose state. Steve revives her and takes her back to her people. The Moquis hail Steve as a miracle worker and make him Medicine Man. Later, when he wishes to meet Ellen, the Indians refuse to let him depart. White Cloud goes to the rendezvous and informs Ellen of Steve's predicament. Ellen returns to the settlement and persuades the miners to go to the rescue. Binfield and Wetlock, the men who stole the miner's gold, arrive at the Moqui village with their loot. They are discovered by Steve. The rescue party appears and Steve's innocence is established. The robbers are placed under arrest. The Moqui Medicine Man. fearing Steve's hold upon the Indians, poisons him with the juice of the loco weed, a drug which causes temporary insanity. Steve loses his mind and wanders aimlessly about. He is found by White Cloud, who stops a party of miners on their way to town for machinery. She and Steve are placed in one of the wagons. They are seen by the Moqui Medicine Man, who informs Big Elk that White Cloud is eloping with Steve. Binfield and Wetlock escape. Hastening to the Indian village they urge Big Elk to attack the miners. In the battle which follows, the miners are slain. The renegades also perish. Steve, however, escapes. To punish White Cloud for her supposed unfaithfulness, Big Elk places her against a wagon and by means of poisoned arrows shot into her hands, transfixes his squaw to the wood. Steve recovers. He comes upon Big Elk gloating over the body of White Cloud. Horror-stricken, Steve sends a bullet through the murderer's heart. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
