A strong film, but not too dramatic. A young woman has a great affection for a man residing in the same hotel. Her affection is much misplaced, however, for the feeling is not returned. Thinking he has been playing with her, she determines to revenge herself, and finds for this a ready helper in a man also staying at the hotel. He places in the young fellow's pocket some playing cards, and that same evening at the casino, when these two are playing cards with a party, the young fellow is accused by the man of cheating, and the cards being found on his person, he is shown out. From that date his life is a misery, but his uncle, certain of his innocence, offers a reward for information as to who placed the cards in his nephew's pocket. The real culprit being in want of cash comes forward, gets the money, and confesses his guilt, and is compelled by the angry old man to accompany him to the casino, and publicly announce the fact.
