SIX CENTS WEEK.-The election OF Mr..
Mckinley was the occasion of the most
rapid and widespread business revival ever
known in this country. There is certainty
that good times will prevail and that peo-
pie will earn money aud have money to
spend. The independent of New York was
foremost in upholding the principles for
which Mr.. Mckinley stands, and rejoices
in the better outlook for every man, woman
and child in the country. Forforty- years
The Independent has held the first position
among the great religious, literary and fam
lily weeklies of this country, and it proposes
to fill that position in the future. 1t has
adopted several new, interesting and i'm
portant features, two of which are 1.-THE
Survey of the World" which gives in a
concise form all the important events that
have happened in the world during the
week, and "Work Indoors and Out" which
tells men, women, boys and girls how to
earn money in variety of ways. In gen.
eral the paper is particularly fitted for pro-
fessional men, merchants business men,
farmers and families. 1t costs but six cents

any part OF year A specimen copy will

Rockville, Md, July 5.-The excite
ment caused by the lynching of the
negro, Sydney Randolph, on Friday
night, was stirred to high pitch tonight
when it was rumored that the cOlored
people in the vicinity of Gaithersburg
had organized party and were coming
to Rockville to lynch R. L. Buxton, the
father of the Buxton family that was
assaulted, and of which crime Randolph
was accused and for which he was
lvnched. AS soon as the authorities
here were apprised of this rumor steps
were at once taken to prevent a recur-
renee of the events of Friday night.
The deputy quickly informed number
of itizens that their services might be
needed and then told Buxton of his
danger, advising him TO leave Oh the
next train for Washington. Buxton
seemed quite nervous and excited, but
protested against leaving. Arrivals from
Gaithersburg stated that the rumor OF
the irtended outbreak among the ne
groes had reached them and that
party of two hundred men had been
armed and put on their guard. They
informed Buxton that if he would ac
them back to Gaithersburg
they would guarantee to protect him.
Buxton went to Gaithersburg, where he
will spend the night with friends, guard
ed by several able bodied men. There
is no doubt that that the colored people |
