About Alice in the Wooly West

Julius does rope tricks from horseback. Bandits stop a stagecoach and pin Alice between the leader and a cactus. He gets most of the passengers clear, but the leader rides off with her, and a fight on a rock drops both of them into the boulders. Julius sends his fur out as a decoy and clubs the man from behind. He hides to put the fur back on before he accepts her thanks.
