Playboy Teddy Ward wants to marry Jeannie King, an artist, but his father wants him to marry Loris Lane, but tells Teddy he can marry whom he pleases if he will make the Mountain Inn a profitable operation.

山姆·伍德
来自于艾芜南行记原序言： 新闻记者爱一名舞i女，在美国经过一些惨痛的波折，都未达到成功。随后舞女到中国卖艺，新闻记者打听得这个消息，便远远地尾着追来。恰碰着辛亥革命之秋，正是中国大动乱的年头，这一对年轻的恋人，刚要会在一块儿互道思念之苦的时候，突然在人间失踪，关进黑暗的狱里去了。然而，事情又凑巧得很，两人居住的囚室，只仅仅隔了一层墙壁，彼此可以听着声音，而且，两人的手，只要各从室门的洞上，伸了出来，就能够互相热烈地握着。但是，老使他们俩都感着痛苦而又伤心的，便是现已手握在一块了，却还不能面对面地相看一眼。关于犯罪的事实，且单举舞女来说吧。她在一位清朝大员的府上卖艺，适值当地民军起事，将那大官杀在后花园里，舞女恰来碰见了这样流血的惨剧，人几乎吓昏了。那时，大概又是正当清廷和民军议和的消息传来了吧，民军的领袖，便趁此机会，把杀死清朝大员的罪名，轻轻地加在舞女的身上。 当舞女将要拉出去砍头的那一天，新闻记者似乎买通了看守，逃出监狱，便飞奔到电报局去，向美国发出求救的急电。于是，太平洋上的美国军舰，马上乘风破浪，向中国驶来，且放出飞机，挟着炸弹，飞往求救的地方。正当撕衣上绑的舞女跪在断头台上，让万众参观，给两位屠牛大汉挥刀要砍的时候，美国的飞机到了，轰然一声，炸弹从空投下。
