A change takes place when Alice Redmond comes from the east with her father, and Bradford gambles no more. Alice falls in love with him at first sight, and her love grows stronger when Bradford saves her from the cowardly assault of Lister, the bad man of the district. One morning Bradford decides to sell out his gambling outfit, and his old friend Jess, the dancing girl, seeing that her chances of winning his affection are no more, goes off into the woods to hide her sorrow. There she sees Lister attempting to run away with Alice Redmond, who is in his power, having been surprised by him upon a lonely road. Jess rushes back to the saloon and tells Bradford, who, with the aid of the boys, dashes after Lister, and finally catches him. This paves the way for an introduction to Alice's father, and finally to a happy marriage, and Bradford is known as "The Gambler" no more. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
