The desperado robs the bank and takes to the open country. The banker and the sheriff's posse give chase. After many amusing incidents the robber eludes them, and taking them unawares, sweeps them off a cliff with a big boulder. Unknown to him, a construction gang has mined the cliff with dynamite. As he is gloating over his coup, the blast goes off, and he is literally blown into the arms of the posse.
