She meets Captain Davis, a young officer of the Engineer Corps, who is in the confidence of the general staff of the army, and soon wins his love. Learning that the plans of the fortifications must be secured at once, Valerie, by a clever ruse, secures possession of the plans through Davis. A secret service man is suspicious and warns the captain that Valerie is a foreign spy, but the captain, madly in love, indignantly denies it. Valerie, who overhears this conversation, is shamed by the fact that her companion is the man she has betrayed. A dummy envelope which Valerie has substituted for the one containing the real papers is then in the possession of Captain Davis. Determined to make amends, however, Valerie makes a second substitution, placing in the captain's pocket the envelope containing the real papers. Thus the career of the man she loves is saved, although for the first and last time of her life she has disobeyed the orders of her Emperor. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
