"The Temple of David.'' a' ieu of the vilest character, is shown iu tlio first aor. It is the rendezvous of a band of desperadoes, headed by the villainous Martin Maaon. The victims of treachery and crime are in breathless suspense until the rescue by the undaunted "Dynamite Ann," aided by Joe Mayfield. The daring of ihe Bloux, Wakeiah. who swing s out over a yawuiug canyon and little Tattoo, is only paralleled by the aaving of Belle Gordon by Joe Mayfield, the owner of the Last Dollar mine. Bright and sparkling bits of comedy light up ihe rough, homeless camp gife. Novel and startling Mage ota add to the picturesque environment of the plot.
