THE WHITE CAPS,

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 6.-Attorney Gener-
al Michner, who was deputized by the gov
ernor to visit Crawford county and inves-
tigate the white cap outrages. has made a
report in which he states that the condi-
ton of affairs is not only deplorable. but
alarming, and that the local courts and
officers seem to be terrorized or in sympa-
thy with the criminals. The attorney
general says that as result of the terror
existing in Crawford county there has
been recently organized a body known
as "Black Caps,' and it is said they
placed armed men each night on the
In the region most infested by the white
caps, with instructions to fire up the latter.
He concluded his report by suggesting
that the governor appoint assistant coun-
sci to prosecute the cases and that such
counsel should be present with the prose
cutting attorney in the grand jury room
when the witnesses are eXamlnedi that If
possible the newspapers in Crawford
county be induced to denounce the
white cap outrages and demand the
enforcement of the law. He also
suggests that the governor attend In per
son the October term of the Crawford cir
cult court while the grand jury Is IN SEES
sion and thus give the people to under
stand and realize that there is force
outside of that county which can be used
if necessary, to insure the enforcement OF
the law.

Pneumonia and Kindred Diseases.

The strong presumption is that much
of the affection is caused by what are
called modern Improvements in heating
houses. Nothing has taken adequately
the place Of the chimney as ventilator.
Open flues have grown fewer and fewer,
and the oven principle has been substi-
tuted in the balls as well as the rooms of
the average i'll ventilated household. To
walk outdoors is to suddenly transfer
the individual to another climate. The
over or i'll regulated heating has been ac-
companied by an increase of closet and
other drains that the utmost care ap-
parently cannot prevent from affecting
the interior atmosphere. Our people
have been made physically more tender
in various ways. They ride in warm
cars more and walk less than formerly.
The elevator has robbed them of salutary
exercise they used to take. Modern COM
forts, so called, and conveGiences are
probably being bought too dear. They
should either be made better or used less.
