SEABOARD CONDUCTOR
GETS A BIG REWARD
Receives Check for Apprehension of
Robber Wanted in Kentucky.

Conductor H. E. Hurley of Ameri-
cut, was over in this city this week,
and while here informed the editor
that he had received check from the
postoffice department at Washington
to the amount of $3.50 for the cap
ture of James Wilson, white man,
wanted by the government for rob-
bling a postoffice at Corinth, Ky.
An amusing feature of the capture
made by Conductor Hurley was that
one of the policemen at Cordele as
sisted the man in catching the Sea-
board train, in order to get him out
of Cordele; and shortly after board
ing the train Conductor Hurley sus-
picioned the party as being criminal
and arrested him, taking from his
person two large pistols and several
books of stamps. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Hurley also assisted
in the capture of four bandits last
year at Montgomery, for which he re-
ceived the sum of $500.

observed that the men usually gather
in groups at public centers conven-

gathering. Around busy corners, at
