THE EVENING GALL. ?01. x. No. 193 A large reward. $1,250 Awaits the Person Who Deliv ers Sam Hose to the Authorities. jt been <'ue week tonight fir.ee Siirr Hose committed bis horrible crime in Campbell county, and he is e iill at large. Governor Candler first < fit-red a re ward ot $250 for theatrestand delivery of Hose to the officers, and yesterday increased the reward to SSOO. The citiz ns of Palmetto have added $250 to this, and the Atlanta Constitution today offers an additional reward of SSOO. The reward is an unusually large one, and may induce some of the finesbdetectives in the country to take up the case. The liberal reward offered by the Constitution will be duly appreciated by the people of Georgia. But long after that is forgotten the women’of the South will bold in greatful remern brance the vigorous defense thatpaper has made of those who are hunting the black demon with the avowed in tention of burning him when he is captured. The Constitution in speak ing of the reward in a long editorial, says ■ “The Constitution makes this offer, fully convinced of the fact that we have reached a critical period—one in which the safety of the home must be measured against the chances for criminals to escape The people of Georgia are orderly and conservative, the descendants of ancestors who have been trained in American methods for 150 years They are a people intense ly religious, home living and just. There is among them no foreign or lawless element. When, therefore, a lynching occurs among such a people, it has connected with it premeditation and purpose, and it follows that when such a people can be so moved, be hind it there is a motive so strong and overpowering that all the bonds of conservatism have been broken. “Georgia is an agricultural state. Her people are forced to the isolated life of the farm, and as the farmer goes about bis daily labor, he must leave mother, wife or daughter in the lonely cabin to await his home-coming. Are they safe? The answer comes from the humble home in Campbell county, where an industrious citiz. an who bore hie part toward family and state was brutally murdered by the negro to whom he had given food and employ ment. “The search for Sam Hose should be kept up, and his punishment should be made summary enough to serve notice upon those who sympa thize with him that there is protec tion in Georgia for women and chil dren/’ Thought It Was Holt. Milner, April 19—Early last night a coal black negro was captured on J. H Wilson’s place by our vigilant marshall, E. W. Wilson, and brought to town and locked up for Sam Holt. At dawn this morning it was discover ed that toe captured negro was rather too shady for Holt and he was given a good breakfast and quietly conducted out of town. We trust this little incident will only spur our young men to renewed effort to apprehend the monster Holt. Death of Mrs. Patterson- Mrs. H.T.

In the case of Cunningham vs. City of Griffin, decided yesterday, the Sus i preme Court sustains Judge Reagan in holding that the act of the legisla ture constituting and establishing the Crininal Court of Griffin is constitu tional. The defendants in a jjreat many cases have attacked the court as being unconstitutional but the question was finally decided against their conten" tiori in the case above referred to. They also decided that the “blind tiger” ordinance was valid. This or dinance passed in February of last year, prohibits the keeping of a 'blind tiger” or keeping for sale or exchange any various spirituous or malt liquors in the city of Griffin. The Supieme Court holds that it is a valid police regulation, and the Mayor and Council have power to adopt the ordinance under the general welfare clause of the city charter. There were other points in 'he case decided, but not of general interest, but the city was sustained on every point. A Narrow Escape. Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada E Hart, of Groton, S I).

CAPTURED BY FILIPINOS Lieut- Gilmore and Party of Fourteen Captured or Killed- Washington, April 19—A dispatch received from Admiral Dewey said : “The Yorktown visited Baler, Luzon, April 12, for the purpose of rescuing and bringing away a Spanish force consisting of 30 soldiers, three officers and two priests, which was surround ed by 400 insurgents. Lieutenant Gilmore and a party of bluejackets were ambushed, fired upon by the re bels and captured. Their fate is un known, as the insurgents refused to communicate afterwards ” Admiral Dewey gives a list of fifteen missing, including besides Lieut. Gil more, Chief Quartermaster Walton, ; Coxswain Ellswor.b, Gunners Mate Myers and Sailmaker’s Mate Vendgia. Concern is manifested at the navy department over the news sent by Ad miral Dewey Knowing something of the cruelty of the Filipinos towards prisoners, the officials can only hope for the best. They are encouraged by the fact that the three American sol diers captured before Maloios were, at last accounts, being treated with con sideration. Instructions have been sent Admiral Dewey to use every effort to secure the release of Lieut. Gilmore and the fourteen missing men, either by ran som or in exchange. Gen Otis and Admiral Dewey have about 16,000 Filipino soldiers as prisoners and President. McKinley has three million dollars fi.r extraordinary expenses. , Already the suggestion his been made , that - me of this three million might , beu-ed to persuade Aguinaldo that his cause is hopeless, but the authori ties poi-phooh the idea, though thev . are exceedingly reticent in discussing it.
