One for the Lawyer.

When youth and inexperience pits it
self against age and wisdom, it gen.
orally gets the worst of it. Some years
ago many farmers along the line g s
large railway brought suits against it,
and engaged a young lawyer named
Brown. The Judge who was presiding
was compelled to throw many of the
cases out of court because they were
improperly brought, at which the law
yer became angry. Swelling with In
dignatiOn, he arose and said:
'Your honor. will you please tell me
how it is possible in this court to get
justice against a railway company
The court quietly ignored the con.
tempt of court shown by the lawyer
and asked:
do you want an answer to that ques
ton, Mr.. Brown?'
Yes, sir" was the defiant reply
Eyes, sir, and l want to know how &
farmer can get his case into this cour
so that it will be heard"
The Judge smiled and said:
"Well, first, Mr.. Brown, I'd advis,
the farmer to employ a lawyer"
Mr. Brown had nothing more to say

Origin of the White Caps.
The beginning of the institution dates
back many years to the early settle
ment of Indiana, at time when the
State was overrun with desperate
characters who had fed from Ohio and
Kentucky the southern part from its
contiguity to the Ohio, being especial
ly the haunt of horse thieves, robbers
and counterfeiters. In the river coun-
ties of Indiana there was for years a
continuous reign of terror. When the
residents Of these counties finally band

THE LAST EQUALITY.
The rich man breathes the atmosphe

The rich man breathes the atmosphere
the same as you or l.
He cannct see a deeper blue than we do
in the sky;
He hears the piping of the birds--a music
sweet and clear
But maybe money-clinking 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 time when he
will have to leave it here.
Old Deaths spirit level that will brook
no compromise,
And no one dies any deader than the
next man dies.

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 10 a horse and carried into the
woods. where he was stripped. He
was then bound to "A tree and each

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
Whtecaps had such powerful inhu-
ence that the convicted men served
but a small part of their sentences.
From 1888 to 1874 there were occa-
sional whippings of both men and
women, but nothing of nature as to
call for special action. but in the lat
ter year lynching 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 Whtecaps broke into jail
and lynched a man awaiting trial on
charge of murder, OF which his limo
cence was later proven.
In 1888 a prominent farmer was
whipped. He had the gang arrested
but the jury disagreed and the mer
escaped. From that time on for many
years Whitecap Outrages were FIRE
quent. They became so common thai
at last the people of both Indiana ant
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 perfect frenzy Of
terror.
Members of the original gang ot
Whitecaps were rarely arrested an(
more rarely convicted. If a White
capper fell into the hands of the law
it was almost invariably because o
