Bronco and Locomotive in Colltsiot

A balky bronco tried to dispute the
right of way on the Santa Fe tracks
with a locomotive, OF rather with two
locomotives, for there were two OF
them coming into town together from
Palmer Lake. The bronco had crossed
the track, but considering the railroad
more to his liking returned to the
track and took up a position between
the rails. This position was assaulted
by the two locomotives, but the bronco
bravely stuck to his post until it was
too late to retreat. He was knocked
