BANK ROBBER Cashier Carlisle of Harrisburg Makes a Neat Capture THEY GOT COLD LEAD, NOT GOLD Harrisburg, Neb., Oct 21.--(Special)-- A bold attempt was made today to rob the Banner county bank of this town. About 4 o'clock p.m. a masked man entered the bank and ordered Mr. Carlisle, the cashier, to throw up his hands. Mr. Carlisle stepped through a side door through his residence and out of doors, and securing the robber's horse, raised the alarm. In a few minutes a dozen armed men were on the streets and the bank was surrounded. The robber secured what money was in sight, threw it in a sack and came out. After the exchange of a dozen shots or so the robber started to run, and was finally brought down, shot through the leg. Fortunately no one was shot but the thief. It is not known whether he had any pals or not. It turned out to be a man by the name of Graham, a rancher living in the edge of Scotts Bluff county. His wound is not dangerous. All the money was recovered and the thief captured.
