His comrades are the husbands and fathers of Mrs. Van Vechten's guests. The women, on learning the state of affairs, determine to go on a hunting expedition of their own. Later we find them in camp all starting off on a hunting trip. Mrs. Van and her friend, Mrs. Morris, use an auto and penetrate well into the mountainous district, finally coming upon an Indian woman with a papoose laying on the ground beside her. The squaw leaves the papoose to return to her camp, and Mrs. Van determines to steal the baby and take it back and show it to the girls. Mrs. Morris, her friend, protests and refuses to have any hand in the matter whatever. Mrs. Van drives away alone with her spoils. Mrs. Morris returns to the camp of the white women and tells of Mrs. Van's act. The white women leave to search for Mrs. Van. In the interim the squaw, returning to the stream with more washing, misses her papoose and trails the guilty party. Mrs. Van in her haste and eagerness, drives her machine over a cliff, wrecking it, and she herself is found insensible by the squaw, who comes upon her after the accident. The Indian woman secures her babe and starts homeward. Mrs. Van recovers, follows, and takes from the squaw the second time her offspring. The Indian woman in her turn recovers from Mrs. Van's warlike blows, trails the white woman, coming upon her, chokes her insensible, secures her papoose and drags her natural enemy back to a camp of the Indians. The white women arriving at the camp the same moment, an awful hand-to-hand encounter ensues, the whites being victorious. A new day dawns and we find the inimitable Mrs. Van playing with her prize, which she didn't want. Looking up she sees the Indian women coming and she quickly hides the papoose and meets them with haughty mien. One old squaw steps forward and pleads, "White women please give back Indian babe." Mrs. Van finally succumbs and gives the papoose to the Indian mother. Who is the savage? Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
