The White and Black Caps.

While the Republican papers have
had a great deal to say about the re-
gulators in the South, and have de-
nounced their whippings and orders to
people to leave the country, we have
seen no emphatic denunciations in
them ofthe Indiana White Caps, who
are doing the same thing, attempting
to regulate the morals of community,
but in tar more cruel manner, since
not men alone, but women, young and
delicate, are whipped nearly to death.
They have run" a number of people
out of the country, and there have
been not few killings to complete
the tragic record.
Yet when the Governor investigated
the matter the other day, or rather had
the Attorney General to do so, the lat.
ter reported that nothing can be done
against the White Caps; that they
have the support of the local press, of
the county officers and others. A
number Of White Caps have been tried
but it has been impossible to secure
conviction, and Attorney General
Kitchener is convinced that this will
continne to be the case until public
sentiment charges in Indiana and or.
ganizes to suppress these lawbreakers.
"Unless it occurs" he reports to Gov.
Gray, "a general insurrection is likely
to follow, and YOU will be compelled
to suppress it with military power"
In the meantime, however, coun.
ter organization, the Black Caps, has
sprung into existence, which places
armed men each night in the roads, in
the region most infested by the White
Caps, with instructions to fire on the
latter.
Indiana is Northern State, is Har.
rlson's own home, and is counted on
to help him into the presidential chair.
While discussing the Southern regu.
lators, the Northern Republican pa.
pers might draw comparison between
them and "the White Caps" and see
which is the greater, the mote in the
Southern eye or the beam in that of
the North.-Times Democrat.

An Alligator out Visiting.

On Saturday night last, just after
midnight, lad about twelve years of
age, while coming up town, saw some.
thing in gutter on Benville street,
near Chartres, which at first blush he
fancied was drowned dog. STOPPING
down to examine the object he was
not little startled by being viciously
snapped at. Upon closer inspection
he discovered that the creature was
nothing more nor less than young
alligator, but fully three feet in length.
Procuring strong cord the youth
formed a moose at one end of it, by
means OF which after lively struggle,
he managed to secure a firm hold
about the alligator's neck. Hauling
his prize out upon the pavement the
youth started homeward with his cap.

SOME BIG FEES ASKED.

The demand is so great that popular
singers and players ask largo rates. A
woman who tried tosarrange programme
the other day found that she could not
obtain a single favorite or star" singer for
her tea for less than 500 for two or three
songs. Ordinarily good singers asked S25,
and all the good pianlsts required similar
fee. There was no arguing or haggling,
either. The artist said that their service
We're in constant demand, and that if this
particular hostess could not see her way to
retaining them for her some richer one
would be likely to step in and secure them,
perhaps, on the same afternoon. Besides,
said one of the artists, she didn't care to
sing at teas, anyhow 1t was only good,
big fee that could tempt her, because, as a
rule, the people did not listen to more than
one song, and always talked through the
rest. AT one notable tea the artist declined
to sing until the murmur of voices of some
$50 guests ceased absolutely. She stood at
the piano immovable for nearly ten minutes
until silence was obtained. Musical odd
tiles have been giving chic also to some
recent fashionable teas. At one,ia group of
fashionable women were apparently
charmed by musical eccentricities of a
player upon a concertlna. The performer
extracted music out of the instrument by
fiipging it out at arms length, throwing it
round his neck and by gently pressing it
with one foot. The performances were de-
manded again and again by the auditors,
and when at last the artist ceased. one
fashionable woman murmured i'll inetfable
delight, "Well, | never saw anything like
that before" She probably never had.

How 10 Enrich Poor Land Without
Stable Manure.

A North Carolina farmer, writing to
the Progressive Farmer on the method of
making poor lands rich, has this to say {:
Prepare any poor old land, plow we'll
and cross-plow and SOW down to rye in
the month of August. Then about the
last of May plow under nicely with a
good two.horse plow, level it with har-
row and SOW two bushels Of peas to the
acre and put them under we'll. Then
abou, the 18th of August turn your peas
nicely and level the ground with har-
row again; now SOW three bushels OF
buckwheat to the acre and put under
we'll. When your buckwheat is podding
pretty we'll, turn under and harrow your
ground we'll and cross harrow, and SOW to
wheat and clover, and let it rest for two
years, and take through the same process
again. Farmers, try this !; it will beat
your fertilizers, and is cheaper than
stable manure, and will bring your poor
land up.
