COLORADO DEPUTY's SHOT
Sheriff's Aid Who Could Do Wonder
full Things with His
Revolver.

While Deputy Sheriff William Ron.
aldson was in the once dad" town OF
Coffeyville, Kan, he got some of the
Dalton spirit in his veins and listened
to the stories of how four of the Dali
tons met death at the hands of one
man stationed in a shed and shooting
through knothole, relates the Denver
Times. They told Mr. Ronaldson
stories of what crack shots the Dali
tons were and how they picked OFF
every man that appeared on the streets
with a gun.
When the Denver deputy was on the
train some stranger entered into con-
versation about what crack shooters
there were in Kansas about the time
the Daltons blew into Coffeyville and
secured several thousand dollars from
a bank.
Ronaldson said Eyes, there were
some good marksmen there, but 1t is
easy to hit a man with a Winchester.
In Colorado we use Colt almost ex-
clusively. OF course, we have no crack
marksmen, but I believe might pick
off a prairie dog there while the train
is moving"
The stranger flashed a five-spot In
Deputy Ronaldson's face and 1t was
covered. Ronaldson snapped out his
3S-caliber Colt and without much de-
liberation, and while the train was In
rapid motion, sent one Kansas prai'
rio dog IN the eternal sleep.
Deputy Sheriff William Ronaldson,
of Denver, was Ave dollars to the good
and friends on the sheriff's force say
they would take a hundred similar
bets that Ronaldson could do the same
nine times out of ten.
