  We report on the abundance analysis of two red giants in the faint Hercules
dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy. These stars show a remarkable deficiency in the
neutron-capture elements, while the hydrostatic alpha-elements (O, Mg) are
strongly enhanced. Our data indicate [Ba/Fe] and [Mg/Fe] abundance ratios of
<-2 dex and ~+0.8 dex, respectively, with essentially no detection of other
n-capture elements. In contrast to the only other dSph star with similar
abundance patterns, Dra 119, which has a very low metallicity at [Fe/H]=-2.95
dex, our objects, at [Fe/H]~-2.0 dex, are only moderately metal poor. The
measured ratio of hydrostatic/explosive alpha-elements indicates that high-mass
(~35 M_sun) Type II supernovae progenitors are the main, if not only,
contributors to the enrichment of this galaxy. This suggests that star
formation and chemical enrichment in the ultrafaint dSphs proceeds
stochastically and inhomogeneously on small scales, or that the IMF was
strongly skewed to high mass stars. The neutron capture deficiencies and the
[Co/Fe] and [Cr/Fe] abundance ratios in our stars are similar to those in the
extremely low metallicity Galactic halo. This suggests that either our stars
are composed mainly of the ejecta from the first, massive, population III stars
(but at moderately high [Fe/H]), or that SN ejecta in the Hercules galaxy were
diluted with ~30 times less hydrogen than typical for extreme metal-poor stars.
