MUCH WANTED MAN
 AT LAST CAUGHT Joseph Weatherford Captured Near DadeviIIe for Mail
 Robbery in Kansas

Opelika, February 26.-(Special. )-After trailing his man for thousands of miles through many states, James s. Stice, a United States postoffice inspector, caught he will now answer for his alleged crimes. Young Joseph w. Weatherford of Eureka Kan, was a telegraph operator at that place, and 1t was a part of his duty to assist in handling some of the mail. Yielding to temptation one night it is said, he robbed a pouch, securing nearly a thousand dollars and fled. The earth seemed to have swallowed him up that December night and no trace of him could be found. The inspectors wearied, and a day or two ago located him at Waverly, in this county.
 Coming here to secure a warrant the official returned to find that he was gone. He followed him up the Central of Geor- gia Railway and captured him near Dadeville yesterday and brought him here. where he was tried this evening before Commissioner Thompson and placed under 5000 bond. which he could not give, and he will be taken back to Fort Scott Ark, for trial. The evidence against him Is conclusive. His wife. a frail little wiman, came here in the hope of aiding him, though he had cruelty wronged her. The catch is one of the shrewdest in the postoffice records of Alabama.
