The same day comes a message from the president of that South American republic, asking their aid in crushing the revolution. As quickly as preparations can be made, they are off on a steamer bound for the South American port. Aboard ship, they meet Mary and Alice Bruce, the two daughters of Stephen Bruce, who happens to be the American backer of the president of the republic. It is a case of love at first sight with the young men. Arrived in the capital of Panzuelo, they at once place themselves at the president's disposal. Following their meeting with the president and his staff, they receive a warning message to the effect that if they do not leave the country at once they will never do so alive. The boys laugh at the sinister message and make further preparations to aid the existing government. General Villanza, the rebel leader, consults with his officers, and it is agreed that since Mr. Bruce is backing the president, the revolutionists will win a big point if they can capture Bruce's two daughters and hold them as hostages, threatening to kill them if their father does not withdraw his aid from the president and transfer it to General Villanza. After careful planning, the girls are captured while out riding, and are placed under guard in a tent of the rebel camp. Learning of this, Reynolds and Drew immediately make plans to rescue the girls. From that point on to the end of the story startling events follow each other thick and fast until, finally, the boys not only rescue their sweethearts but effect the capture of General Villanza himself. The rebel leader is given his choice of being put to death or of giving up the fight and inducing his followers to surrender. He finally capitulates and peace is restored. The boys are given a handsome reward by the president and the last chapter of the story is reached when Mr. Bruce and his wife give their consent to the marriage of their daughters with the two young men.
