HOOSIER WHITECAPS
Make an Outrageous Attack on
Observation-Disclosures WhipDeI

Make an Outrageous Attack on
Observation-Disclosures Whipped.
MUNCIE, Ind, Feb. 27.-Today
Judge Behymer issued warrants for
the arrest of Arthur Shroy, Walter
Berry, Elmer Balg and Rolley Wright.
This is the outcome of a sensational
Whitecap attack last night at Gran
vile, ten miles northeast, upon Mrs.
Amanda Hamilton, a widow, aged
thirty-five years; her mother, Mrs.
Elisa Graham, aged sixty-five, and
very feeble, and her two sons, Warren
and Clay Hamilton. Late at night
four men called and demanded that
they be admitted. The door was open
ed and they entered. The mob wore
maskes. They knocked Mrs. Hamilton
down and kicked her in a frightful
manner. She is injured internally and
may not recover. The old mother was
next attacked, and she was insensible
before the men stopped their work.
She is also in a critical condition.
The two sons jumped from the bed
and attempted to protect their mother
and grandmother, but were soon over
powered and received a severe beating.
Lewis Reese, a neighbor, heard the
screams of the woman and FASTENED
to the house, and was also treated
to a sound beating. He is now con-
fined to his home. The four men then
left the house. Mrs. Hamilton and
Reese claim they recognized the men
as the ones above namd. Berry is
justice of the peace, and the other
three are prominent residents of that
city and vicinity
The reason of the attack is not
known. 1t was rumored that Mrs
Hamilton was a questionable char
acter, and the residents wanted her
to leave the city. Other residents say
that Mrs. Hamilton's character cannot
be questioned and will assist Mrs.
Hamilton in having the men punished
This is the first Whitecap case for
this county, and the people con-
cerned being prominent, it has caused
great excitement. Further trouble is
expected.

and when the flames from the Kaest-
ner building were seen, some one
sounded an alarm. A wild rush for
the exits followed, the children be-
coming crazed with terror. They
rushed down the StairWayS, tram
ping under foot those who had fall
en-, and several boys jumped from
second-story windows. Help was
summoned, and many children were
removed unconscious by the am
balances.
The injured, none of them fatally,

about head and face.

being trampled.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Feb. 27.-The train
from the south today brought fully
800 badly scared passengers from Hot
Springs, Ark, who left that popular
resort in a hurry yesterday to escape
the smallpox. They declared that the
disease is epidemic, and near neighbor-
ing towns have established a rigid
quarantine, the authorities at Malvern
compelling the trainmen to lock all
passengers from the springs in the
cars while trains are passing through
that town.
Among those who reached st. Louis
today were: M. Gates and wife, Chi
cago; E. F. Williams and wife, Duluth;
E. T. Brewer, Springfield, Ill; Mrs.
Thomas Lonergan, Chicago; Harry E.
Wiley and William j. Monkey and fam
lily, Chicago. They say rumors had
been circulating that smallpox was
increasing, but last Sunday when
many of the guests were getting ready
to leave an official bulletin was issued
by the health department that only
one case existed in the city. This
Gained their fears for a while but
yesterday it was learned that at the
time the health department was pre-
pairing the bulletin there were thirty
five cases being treated in the pest
house.
Mr.. Brewer made the following state
ment: The people are pouring out
of Hot Springs panic stricken. Every
available seat was taken in the train
yesterday, and a great many more
would have left could they have got
away The visitors there are just be-
ginning to learn the truth l have in
side information and know that there
are not less than seventy-five cases of
the disease in Hot Springs, and about
half of them are in the midst of the
city" Harry Wiley said: II learned
last night from a member of the board
of health at Hot Springs that there
were forty-seven cases of smallpox IN
the pest house, and a number of cases
in the city that had not been re-
moved"

The fast friendship which was then
formed remained while Mr.. Cleveland
successfully stepped from the office
of mayor of Buffalo to the White

for the second time it was his personal

brightest and fullest of promise They are
taken away by the disease which causes
over one sixth of all the deaths in the
world-the disease which doctors call con.
sumption. Consumption has been consid-
cred incurable, and the medical profession
has never made greater mistake than this.
There is absolutely no reason in the world
why consumption should be fatal why It
should be even serious. 1t is disease of
the blood, and can be cured absolutely and
always by purifying and enriching the
blood The only exception to this IS the
case where the disease has been neglected
and improperly treated until it is stronger
than the body--until the body has become
so weak as to have lost the ability to recu-
perate DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure % per cent. of all cases of
consumption if used according to direc-

bronchial and throat affections. There
is no reason why the child of consump-
tive parents need ever have consunp-
ton if its blood and lungs are strength
ened by the proper use of the Discov-
eryp All who have any reason to tear

upon the condition of English defenses
and her assailability. AS matter of
fact, and we think all the American
people understand that fully, we will
not be able to meet England on the
high seas upon an equality, but we
assuredly are able to inf1ict upon her
commerce far more damage than she
can impose upon us, and damage is the
chief end of war. England cannot hope
to land forces and hold any considerable
portion of this country. Moreover, the
instant war is declared England will be
exposed to assault from other quar-
ters, a fact her statesmen certainly un-
derstand. In arms we are unprepared,
in a sense, it is true, but really in risks
disadvantage than the United States.
However, there is every reason to be-
lieve that there will be no war. The
tone of the English press is now more
conservative, ana close study OF the
situation discloses that it is possible
for England to consider measures for
adjustment without offending Eng
liSh pride, and upon a level on which
the United States can afford to meet
her without receding from our propo-
sitions concerning the Monroe doc
trine. We look to some such outcome
of this whole matter.
