In the meanwhile, the sheriff had offered a big reward for two desperate, masked bandits, and Tom and Dick, thinking to make Fatty ridiculous forever in Lucy's eyes, persuades him to start out to capture the bandits. Fatty was not inclined to undertake the mission, until he heard the boys describing how they would make-up as the bandits, and run Fatty ragged. Changing the revolvers filled with blank cartridges to real ones, Fatty set out, but instead of overtaking the boys, he came upon the real bandits and thinking them the boys, boldly captured them and marched them off, just as they were about to hold up the ranchman. The boys, in the meanwhile, were captured by the sheriff and his posse, and it was not until Fatty identified them at the ranch, much to his secret terror and astonishment, that Tom and Dick were permitted to go, while the sheriff led off the real article. The ranchman was so delighted with Fatty's bravery and the saving of his gold, that he promptly handed Lucy over to the hero, while his rivals slunk away in disgrace.
