THE CAST.
THE TIGER FACE.
Fifteenth Episode.)

Belle watches the burning shack
crash down the steep mountain-side,
carrying with it to his death, as she
believes, her lover Jack Randall. She
has signed away her right to the Cor
don millions on condition that Ran
dolph will let her save Jack, but it
was too late. Gordon now holds the
fortune and the Tiger Idol. Randolph
and Hilda, who is seeking to marry
her, start down the mountain, and
meet Jack, the man they thought dead
in the cabin. He is with Tiger Face.
Jack is tied to the pommel of Hilda's
saddle and dragged away. Randolph
offers Tiger Face the Idol in return
for the "Pact of Three but is told the
Idol must be given to Salonga, the
High Priest of the Tiger Worshipers,
and starts for the underground temple.
Jack cuts the rope binding him to
Hilda's saddle and rejoins Tiger Face.
The two meet Belle, who is heartbrok-
en- over the supposed death of her low
er, and, going to the ruined cabin,
show her the victim is Shotwell, the
bandit. Randolph and Hilda are being
pursued by Sheriff Strong, when Ran
dolph's horse loses it's footing and
throws him. He losses the Idol to
Hilda who rides on with it. When
Strong encounters Randolph they fight,
and Strong searches him for the Idol,
but finds the paper Belle signed giving
Randolph her share in the Past of
Three" Randolph escapes, catches up
with Hilda and proceeds to the Tenn
pie. Sheriff Strong destroys the paper

are suspicious of the friendship be-
tween Strong and Tiger Face. Ran
dolph has returned the Tiger Idol to
the Hindus and is about to burn the
Pact of Three when Belle and Jack
arrive and take it from him. He es-
capes from the Temple, aided by
Hilda. In accordance with their agree
ment, the Hindus remove the ~tattooing
from the face of Tiger Face, and he is
disclosed as Peter Strong, father of
the sheriff. Strong, ST., was one of the
two adventures who accompanied
Bellies father to the East Indian island
in search of treasure, and was cap
tured by the natives after the Tiger
Idol was stolen from them. He was
tattooed on the face and told the
marks would not be removed until the
Idol had been returned. Strong, Sr.,
tells Belle that today marks the time
limit set for the filing of the pact of
Three" in the courts. They hurry
away to the lawyer who is acting as
administrator, but Randolph has brib-
ed the lawyer and when Belle reaches
out the Pact, Randolph grabs it and
throws it in the fire where it is de-
stroyed. But Tiger Face Immediately
produces a Photographic copy of the
Pact which the lawyer is forced to
file, thus saving the fortune for Belle.
Later Jake and Belle are found riding
by Randolph and Hilda. Jack is knock
ed out and Belle is bound to a tree
neal which the Tiger Worshipers have
stopped with their tiger on the way to
a seaport from which they plan to re-

Randolph and leaps at Belle, but Tiger
Face helps her elude the beast. Tiger
Face meets Randolph and during the
fight which ensues, the tiger leaps at
the two and claws them to death.
Hilda, captured by Sheriff Strong, is
set free by Belle with the plea to go
straight thereafter. Belle and Strong,
Sr., formerly Tiger Face, are now own
ers of the Gordon fortune. A double
wedding follows, Belle and Jack, and
Sheriff Strong and Pauline Holiday,
Bellies house guest, and all ends happi-
