tells of the love affairs of the king
of Hamburg and the Princess Of Be-
roma, young couple, who, for reasons
of state are about to be married and
join their kingdoms together. Gustavus
Venner, young American on trip of
adventure around the world, happens
upon the borders of the kings domain
and is arrested as a spy and brought
before the proper authorities. These
same authorities are in plot to de-
throne the king and place themselves
in control. Gustavus Venner so re-
sembles the king that he could scarcely
be told from the reigning monarch.
This remarkable resemblance suggests
q plan to the conspirators, and they
imprison Venner until such time as
they may dispose of the king, which
is done in due time, and Venner
mounts the throne as king, to do the
bidding Of the powers" behind the
throne He meets and falls deeply in
love with the Princess of Berona, who
comes to his court to see the kind of

manner and will allow of a forceful
cast and a magnificent scenic equip
