came, and while nine Of them stood
on the porch, two others went into
the house after the mother and daugh-
ter Ropes were tied around their
necks and when their screams told the
boys what was going on they opened
fire at the gang on the porch. Six of
the nine were killed and two others
were terribly wounded. The few re-
naming fed in terror. The boys fled
TO Kentucky and have never been mo-
Tested.
This lesson was salutary one. Since
that time the Whitecaps have done
nothing but occasionally administer
the CAD to shady characters. Several
damage suits have resulted, but in no
instance has a plaintiff obtained judg-
ment. The last suit, which, like the
others. showed the mysterious hand
of the gang. was tried in Brown Coun-

THE
WHITE
CAPS.

| character was decidedly changed. Ed
ward Bingham, a constable who had
in some way incurred the ill-will OF
| the gang, was the first victim. He
was called out of his home at night,
| tied to a horse and carried into the
woods where he was stripped. He
was then bound to a tree and each
member of the gang took turns in APP
plying hickory switches until he be-
came unconscious. Then the man was
carried back to his home and thrown
brutally over the fence into the yard.
Bingham died next day and the COM
munity arose in rage against his MUIR
derers. Indictments were brought
against several men who were known
to be in the gang and three of them
were sentenced to imprisonment. The
Whitecaps had such powerful infu
ence that the convicted men served
but small part of their sentences.
From 1858 to 1874, there were occa-
sional whppings of both men and
women, but nothing of a nature as to
call for special action, but in the lat
ter year lynchlng by Whitecaps once
more drew attention to the organiZa
ton. Fear of the gang was so great,
however, that nothing was done. In
1876, the Whitecaps broke into Jail
and lynched a man awaiting trial on
charge of murder, of which his inno-
cpnce was later nrOVpn
In 1888 a prominent farmer was
whipped. He had the gang arrested,
but the jury disagreed and the men
escaped. From that time on for many
years Whitecap outrages were fire.
quent. They became SO common that
at last the people of both Indiana and
Ohio were aroused and an attempt was
made to root out the organization.
Whipping and tarring parties were Of
almost nightly occurrence, and the PEG
pie were worked in a perfect frenzy of
terror.
Members of the original gang of
were rarely arrested and
more rarely convicted. If White
capper fell into the hands of the law,
it was almost invariably because of
doing business independent of the or
iginal organization.
1t was in Harrison County, Ind. that

death blow. In the hills near Corydon
lived a family of poor whites from
kentucky father, mother, two sons
md a daughter. One day the father
was found dead in the woods and the
sons were arrested on the charge of
killing him. An examination showed
heir innocence and they returned
home. Soon came a warning telling
he family that unless they left the
county within ten days the Whtecaps
would visit them. The warning was
gnored and word was received that
IN a certain night the Whtecaps
would make their appearance. The
Boys got several shotguns, loaded them

THE LAST EQUALITY.

The rich man breathes the atmosphere
the same as you or /:
He cannot see deeper blue than We do
in the sky;
He hears the piping of the birds-a music
sweet and clear
But maybe money-cinking dulls the mu-
sic to his ear;
And yet he has some pleasures that pos
sess a tempting guise-
But he can't die any deader than the
poor man dies.
The rich man cannot eat more than
one meal at a time,
Nor more than his ten pennies will ex-
coed the poor mans dime;
One suit of clothes is all that may at
once his form adorn,
And he's just as homely as the poor
man, when he's born;
His truth is just as honest, and his false
hoods are plain lies
And he can't die any deader than the
poor man dies.
There may be some philosophy in lifting
up a moan
Because the rich man rides the while the
poor man walks alone;
Because the rich man has his gold to buy
his goodly cheer
And yet therell come a time when he
will have to leave it here.
Old Deaths a spirit level that will brook
no compromise,
And no one dies any deader than the
next man dies.
