RUNNING Down A RAPE F1END.-
Almost the whole state of Georgia has
been in high excitement during the
past week over the crimes of rape
fiend named Sam Hose. Hose, who is
a yellow negro, killed Farmer Alfred
Crawford, near Palmetto, Coweta coun-
@ty, on Wednesday, the 18th instant,
and assaulted Mrs. Crawford. AS soon
as the people of the country surround
ing got information of the crime, they
went in pursuit of Hose and ran him
into a swamp that is about II miles
square and there lost him. Thousands
of people joined in the chase. The
people of the town of Palmetto offered
a reward of $3.50 for the Negro, the
governor of Georgia offered $3.50, and
the Atlanta Constitution increased the
reward to $1,000. People of Atlanta
were at work on last Wednesday try
ing to get up an additional $1,000,
The rewards are conditional upon the
delivery of the Negro to any sheriff in
Georgia. 1t was not thought, how
ever, that if the Negro was captured
any sheriff would be troubled with his
custody.
