The first release Of the great Uni.
/ Vetsal Trey O. Hearts" serial is in
three reels. The first reel Of this in.
stallment is taken up by the prologue,
which gives the motive for all the sub.
sequent exciting, heartrending and ro-
mantle Incidents. Seneca Urine. mid
dleaged and powerful in the financial
[ world, had married a girl much younger
| than himself. This girl was forced in
TO the marriage through circumstances
rather than through love she felt to-
ward Irine. In fact, she had loved
another, Wellington Law. At the
opening Of the prologue We find Trine s
wife the mother of twin girls, unhappy
m the thoughts which still haunt her
OF her old sweetheart, Law. Law, on
the other hand, is married to a cool,
calculating woman and is the father of
a boy.
In the course Of time Trine begins
to suspect the affection that his wife
still feels for Law, and with a bitter
heart, he undertakes a scheme to ruin
his wife's sweetheart. At a ball one
evening he secures definite proof of his
wlfe's attitude toward him and his de-
termination to ruin Law crystallizes
into dentiite action. A month later his
plans Of revenge against the man
whom he believes has robbed him of
his wife's love, are carried to compile
tion; Law is ruined.
Desperate and desiring fresh air,
Law drives into the country in his au.
tOmObile. As fate would have it, he
accidently runs down Trine; discover
ing the identity of the wounded man,
he fees. Trine recOvers, but is left a
paralytic for life. 1t is following this
that Trlne plans to kill Law, and he
writes him to this effect. Law is al.
ready broken down, mentally and phys
ically, and when he begins to find here
and there trey O. heart card-Trne' s
sign of approaching revenge he takes
the easiest way out by killing himself,
after sending his boy to Europe.
At the opening of the play proper,
Law, Jr., is prosperous young bust
ness man in London. Trine, still in
America, has not forgotten his plan of
revenge he awaits the time when Law,
Jr., is the happest to strike him down.
Rose, one of the twin daughters, he
sends to Europe for the purpose of
meeting and securing Laws love.
Rose, however, is unaware of her
fathers intentions; she has high ideals
and a tender heart, while her sister,
Judith, is hard and revengeful, the
prototype of her father. Law meets
Rose at watering place, and it is
case of love at first sight with both.
1t is at this point that Rose receives
the first strange letter from her father,
limiting at her love and assuring her
that she will never marry Law that
he will die before that. Law, for the
first time, finds trey O. hearts, and,
acquaintance of the feud, suspects its
meaning. Rose, fearful for Laws life,
departs, telling her sweetheart that
she will send him a rose-a token of
love-if she ever needs him.
Through his agents Trine is informed
of the complete affair. Through him
rose is sent from America to Law he
hopes to get Law into America the
better to kill him. Law receives the
rose and leaves London. intending to
go by way of Canada to his sweet
heart. Informed of this Trine sends
his daughter, Judith, into Canada to
met Law and bring him back, dead or
alive.
Once in Canada, Judith surrounds
herself with bribed half-breeds and
to carry out her fathers
wishes. She follows Law into the
and captures. him. He be-
leves he stands before Rose, but is in
formed otherwise he is left to die, tied
hand and foot in forest fire.
Law manages to break his bonds and
escape to the river bank. Far out in
the stream he observes Judith depart,
ing, with her guide, in a canoe. He
shoots and kills the guide. Judith in
the canoe without an oar, floats toward
the rapids and wicked falls below.
Law, realizing her plight, rushes to a
log spanning the rapids, leans far
down, and in spectacular manner,
drags the girl out of the onrushing
canoe.
What with his wounds, Law is ex-
hausted after this. Judith helps him
to a clearing in the woods and holds
his head while he falls into deep
sleep; and to Judith, the wicked, comes
the first awakening of love. For the
man who has risked his life to save
hers after she has sought his. she ex-
periences tenderness foreign to any,
thing she had known before. But she
leaves the man sleeping; and the man,
when he awakens, finds on his breast a
rose, where he expected to find trey
O. hearts.
