A PREACHER WHITE-cAPPED.

The Reverend Gentleman was Mormon
istic in His Proclivities.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, April 28.-The
White Caps have broken out in Jetfer-
son county. A few nights ago band
of fifty or sixty surrounded the house of
Russell Jenkins, man who poses as a
preacher, broke into his room and gave
him a severe whipping. Jenkins is
nearly seventy years old. For long
while he has been living with two
buxom women about thirty-five years
of age. 1t was openly charged that
Jenkins, despite his profession of holi-
ness, had lived in open adultery with
these two women. Lately he was given
notice that he must leave the COM
munity. He refused to 80, and defied
those who warned him. He went so far
as to claim that he had the right to live
with all the women who would agree to
abide under his roof. He claimed that
the Bible allowed him all the rights and
privileges allowed the men of olden
times. When the crowd of White Caps
visited him they found him in bed with
the two women, one on either side. He
resisted and shot one seriously but not
fatally. He still refused to leave the
county.
Information from the scene of the
trouble says there is much excitement.
The majority of citizens, while con-
de1nning Jenkins life, are serious in
their denunciation of those who whip
ped so old a man. On the other hand a
minority element says the White Caps
did right, and that Jenkins must leave
the county or take the consequences.

MAY DAY IN BERLIN.
No Preparations Being Made to Prevent
an Outbreak.

BERLIN, April 29.-No preparations
of the military for May Day are ap-
parent and it is said that none will be
made. The Social Democratic leaders
have advised the party to exercise the
greatest care, for the good of the cause,
to abstain from all noisy demonstrations
and to celebrate the day only with pic
MICS and orderly meetings.
The police have been instructed in
conformity with the emperor's wish
communicated by him personally to
Baron Won Richthofen, that they must
exercise all their power to prevent
trouble which may lead to arrests, and
to show exceptional indulgence toward
all drunkards and other disorderly per-
sons. The emperor considered the
quietness of las May in Berlin, during
the blooshed in other European capital
to be vindic@ted of his political policy
toward the Social Democrats, and he is
anxious therefore, to score a similar
victory this year.
