Shot In the. revolver hand and disarmed by an Intended victim more dexterous than he, Herbert Dlckout. the "early bird rob ber," met defeat and capture In Council Bluffs Friday - morning after a series of daring operations In that city and Omaha. The robber's Identity became known only through his own statements. A. Rn'rlirht, pronvletor of the "K. C." saloon, 1509 South Main street,, was behind tne bar preparing his plac for the day's business, when a man, wearing a mask, stepped Into the door.' "Hands up!" commanded the robber In his customary tone of self-assurance. Burrlght's hand went up and the gleam ing little automata pistol gave answer. The bandit's revolver went spinning to the floor, and, .with a bullet hole through his right hand, he swerved with stagger rg steps toward the door. The second shot followed the first with equal accuraoy and tha''eariy bird" 'was laid low with another .wound, this time in his shoulder. v- ' .- . ; Stands Orer His Victim.- - ' Burright followed up his -vantage and, leaping over the bar,. .he stood over his captive. ' ' . . - , : "One move ahd you're a dead man' the saloon keeper shouted, at the man' on the floor. "Don't even wltjk.'.' , - "All right, pard, I'm it' this time," re plied the robber as he struggled to hold his bleeding shoulder Still.. . . The sound of the shots brought others to the saloon and the police took , charge of the prisoner. He was. removed to Mercy honpltal, where his wounds were dressed. Unless Infection should result from tho wounds of the spiteful little. .35-aUber au tomatic the robber will recover without difficulty. - . . V "Frank Nixon Is the '.ame I've been going under.'V said the wounded man In hospital. "I've a sister.. Mrs, Bertha Metx ger. She lives In Clinton, la. .' .'' "My real name Is Herbert 'Dickout.' , . "I'm a cook, but I ain't been working re cently and I Viaven't got any; home.' Just book me from anywhere-.' J ' 'Robber Is n Kiev Boy.' The robber Is a mere- boy ; of .13 yners. The police are positive- that.be Is Identical with the man who held up .the Emmet house saloon on January 29,, when Chris Kretschner, the bartender, .was locked in a Icebox while the bold robber went through the cash register. They find his description tallies with that" of the man who held lip E. J. Kelly, operator at the Rock Island offlce,: In the same vicinity, taking $17 from the cash drawer. ) The trembling youth on that Occasion pushed his watch to the bandit, who, smiling, handed it back. "Tou need this worse than I do, kid," was his comment. He ordered the boy to open the safe, but seeing that he was not familiar with the combination excused him and rauntered off. A number of Omaha holdups have been attributed to the same man who seemingly preferred to operate Just at dawn, gain ing for. him the appellation of the "early bird" robber.
