tB- The abduction of women at mid
night seems to be a growing pastime in the
country towns of Connecticut. AT Dur
ham the other night, woman, whose
husband is at sea, found herself suddenly
snatched out of bed by the side of AN un-
married sister, and in process of being
carried off by strange man. But she
soon made such vigorous resistance that
the fellow was glad to drop her and run.
GB- Burr Cox was one of the wickedest
men in Elliston, Ohio He was drunkard,
gambler, and fighter, but he had re-
spectacle family, whom he abused. A few
days ago he went home half drunk and
maddened by gambling losses, and declar-
ed that he would kill his wife. He ground
hatchet for the purpose, he said, of
chopping her head of, but when he made
the attempt his son, aged fifteen, bravely
grappled with him. The woman tainted
from fright but the boy fought despera-
tely, and finally killed his father by stabbing
him with knife.

Two Men Killed.

About half-past eight O'Clock yester-
day morning Henry Stout, the crossing
watchman for the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad at Wallace street, no
ticed man standing on the track APP
parently intoxicated. A Germantown
and Norristown passenger train was
backing out of the depot at the time and
the stranger did not see it, his back be-
ing to the cars. Stout shouted and mo-
toned for him to get out of the way, but
the man paid no heed. Then scene
occurred that Mortified the spectators.
Stout sprang to the mans assistance, in
his bravery giving no heed to his own
danger, seized him and attempted to
drag him from the track, but the stran-
ger grappled with him, and being the
larger and stronger of the two, held him
and both fell to the ground as the cars
reached them. There was a sickening
sound of crushing bones and the mutila-
ted bodies were seen covered with blood.
The flagman had both legs cut off, and
the stranger, who it was afterward ascer-
tanned is r. Link, of No. 6 Hunter St.,
had one arm severed from his body and
his right leg crushed almost its entire
length; his head was also badly injured.
They were picked up, placed in wagon
and taken to the Pennsylvania Hospital.
They were so frightfully injured they
could not speak. They received every
attention, but Stout, the courageous flag
man, died at twenty-five minutes past
ten O'Clock, and at eleven o'clock Link
expired. Stout, who was only twenty
seven years old, lived at 1886 Manor
street, and has been in the employ of
the railroad company for some time. He
was considered very reliable and wor-
thy man, and the manner of his death
shows his courage. Links name was
ascertained from pawn ticket on his
person. He is 49 years old.-PhiI. North

Western Justice.

On Sunday evening the 10Th inst Bill
Scroggs, a worthless fellow living near
Oak Hills, Kas., shot and instantly
killed Mr.. j. Olyphant, an old and
prominent citizen. Three years ago
Scroggs eloped with and married a
daughter of Olyphant, and subsequently
abused her. She left him, returning to
her fathers house, where she has since
lived. Sunday evening Scroggs asked
to see his wife, but was refused, when
he drew pistol and shot Olyphant. The
assailant started to Oak Hills, but was
overtaken by party of four men who
attempted to arrest him. He fired on
the party, ball striking John Grogg,
killing him instantly. The murderer
then went to the residence of justice
of the peace and surrendered himself
The next day mob of men went to
Waddell's where Scroggs was confined,
took him out among the hills and
hanged him.

A Good Idea.

The Indianapolis Neacs says -
There is hardly State in the South or
West that is not daily offering induce
ments for settlers. Even Kentucky,
within a stones throw of Indiana's idle
people, wants settlers for her cheap un-
occupied lands. Trade unions, which
lay away money to support their men,
bers when out of work, could not use
their funds in a wiser way than ad-
vancing sufficient to their idle members
to enable them to cut loose from pre-
carious condition of existence and make
start in one which, whatever it may
lack in their eyes, gives health and food
and clothes.

POSTMASTER GENERAL KEY has got
himself into extremely hot water be-
cause at Bennington he referred to " our
erring southern brethren" His old
friends in the late rebellious States dis
like the phrase. They call it eating
tumble pie" to an unwarranted extent.
Then again he is styled a veritable 'Uriah
Heep,' and "a trick MULE" etc., etc.
This is all foolishness but still it lets the
animus Of some southern editors crop out
to delight the unreconstructed rea ders
of their journals and enlighten people
in the north as to the fact that the ad-
mirers of the {" Lost Cause" are not all
