Special. Details of a desperate attempt at white capping have been receivod as having been made at Eranchville, Terry county, but the out laws seem to have received the hot end of the poker this time. Kobert Underhill, who is deaf, was attacked by five masked men. The assailant took tho man from his bed. and whilo he held on to the bed with a death grip, the women secured alats from the bed and beat his assailants. At last they secured an ax, with which they chopped one of the mob almost to death, while the assailants fired through the window and lodged more than one hundred pbpts ia Underbill's head. The wounded

white cap is supposed to be Otto Faulkenburger of notorious reputation. Faulkenbnrger is missing. A white felt hat, known to be his, is in the Underbills possession. The entire county, it is reported, has been aroused by this apparently inexcuable attempt to outrage a man against whom no charges had been made.

Ey the aid of his wife and sister the 'assailants were fought off till he secured an axe, with which he executed damages yet unknown.

J.ewis Falkenburg, another young man who was suspected by Underhill, ia lying in bed, badly wounded in the s toulder blade. Ho says he was kicked by a horde, though others think it might haue been made with an axe. Underhill in badly wounded on the head, face and neck with shot. He will probably die. Falkenburg will be crippled for life. Later A man from Eranchville corroborates previous dispatches. Louis Alkenburg's shoulder is split and he lies in a dangerous condition. Nothing has yet been heart! of Keef, whom Underbill thinks be recoznized as the man whom he struck with an axe. The supposition is that these would-be white caps merely intended to have soix.e sport with Underhill, who is not above par in intelligence. Keef is about twenty years of age. He was a waif, taken from tho Yincennes orphan asylum, to be raised by charity, but has always proved intractable. Falkenburg is about twenty-two years old, married, and oi first class family.
