For the last two years there have been stories of outrages committed by lawless persons in the towns of Rock- . land and Fremont under the guise of White CapS. The recent tarring and feathering of Charles Berry and his wife in the moun- tains north of the little town of Acidalia, was the most brutally conducted of many outrages by White caps in either Sullivan or Delaware county. Berry had by hard work accumulated a small sum of money, and was very religious. These were offences in the eyes of some of the rougher element of' the neighborhood, and consequently they undertook to punish him. Mrs. Berry became the mother of a. child about a month ago. A week after- ward the baby died. .The old women of the neighborhood, who filled the house of the Berrys shortly after, found a mark on the dead infant, and :pronounccd it a witch’s mark, and the story was speedily spread that a witch had caused its death. This was made the pretext for the visit ' of six men to the Berry home. They took Mr. Berry from his bed and dumped him in the snow, stripped him of his gar- ments, and while- he bagged and prayed for deliverance ey daubed him from head to foot with tar. One went into the house. ripped open a feather bed, and the ruflians covered their victim with (the feathers. They then re-entered the house and tore the clothing frOm Mrs. Berry, and despite her screams and pleadings for mercy they smeared her with tar and sprinkled herwlth feathers. When the story was first made public it found few believers. but those who live in Long Eddy, a station on the Erie Rail‘ way, about ten miles distant, declare that all that has been told of this bar- barous treatment of the Berrys is true. In one instance they broke up a religious meeting out of sheer wantonness. In another they took umbrage because the teacher of the public school refused to drink and carouse with them and they succeeded in greatly demoralizing the school. At Livingston Manor, a station on the Ontario and Western Railroad, about been several White Cap outrages. Samuel Landau, a New York clothing dealer, was one of the first victims- He started a. June and undersold the local merchants. skull and cross bones, and his house was finally bombarded with heavy timber by masked men until the annoyance be- came so great that he had to return to the city. Theny followed the persecution of John Carl, :1 music teacher, who was ducked in the'mill pond one night by \Vhite Caps for being drunk. Upon promising '« to reform he escaped further moles- tation. Patrick Edwards was ducked in the VVillowemoc for a similar .oflense. :and told to leave town, which he did. Next 1 was Benjamin Hitt, a. farm ‘hand. He Caps and was notified to leave. He took ' the advice. At Kingsbury Hill, just over the Sulli- van county border, in Delaware, the White Caps appeared on October5 before , the house of Emmet Morse and threat- ened to blow up the building with dyna- mite. Morse, it was charged, had taken seventeen year old Mary Boot from her husband, to whom she had been married less than a year. Morse barricaded his house and armed himself and Mary with shotguns, and bade defiance to the band. They held a council of war and decided to retreat. Another White Cap outrage has been reported from Wolf Hollow, 8, little place in the mountains of Monroe county, Pa. ., near Stroudsburg. “Ike" Brewer, with his family, lives in \Volf Hollow. In the summer he peddles blackberries, corn and vegetables, and is known by almost every man, woman and child in the two Stroudsburgs. He is said to possess a snug little competence. His home was visited on Saturday night by a band of White Caps. They wore white pillow cases over their heads. They surrounded the house about midnight and woke up Brewer, who appeared at the second story window. \Vhen he saw their masks he sprang from the window, and ran to his brother’s house, a half mile away, attired onlyin his night garments. HOW TO BUY A HORSE. Don't Trust Even Your Brother’s Honesty in a Horse Trade. An old horseman says: “If you want to buy a. horse, don’t believe your Own brother. Take no man’s word for it; Your eye is your market. Don’t buy a horse in harness. Unhitch him and take everything off but his halter, and lead him around. If he has a corn or is stiff or has any failing, you can see it. Let, him go by himself. and if he walks right into anything, you know he' is blind. No matter how clear and bright his eyes are, he can’t see any more than a bat Back him, too. Some horses show their weaknessess or tricks in that way when they don’t in any other. But be as smart as you can, you’ll get caught sometimes. Eyen the expert gets stuck. A horse maylook ever so nice and go a great pace, and yet have fits. There isn’t a man who could tell it until something happens. Or he may haveaweak back. Give him the whip and off he goes for a mile or two, then all of a. sudden he stops on the road. After a rest he starts again, but he soon stops for good, and nothing but a derrick can start him. If a horse stands with his feet spread apart or straddles with his hind legs, there is a weakness in his loins and the kidneys are disordered. Heavy pulling . bends the knees Bluish, milky cast eyes in horses indicate moon blindness or something else. A bad tempered one keeps his ears thrown back; a stumbling horse has blemished knees. When the skin is rough and harsh and does not move easily to the touch, the horse is a. heavy enter and digestion bad. Never buy a horse whose breathing organs are at all impaired Place your car at the heart, and if a wheezing sound is heard it is an indication of troublarScientiflc American.
