ATTRACTIVE COMBINATION.
The News with Your Choice of Thrice.a.
Week World, or Tri-Weekly Tribune
at SI.75,

There are very few families
now a-days who do not take their
county newspaper, and keep
themselves in touch with the
movements of the world around
them. To attempt to raise a fam
lily without a newspaper, would
be like rearing them IN dark
cave Illuminated with tallow dip.
Forty-nlne out of every fifty fam.
lilies would no more think of get.
ting along without their county
newspaper than without bread
for they deem the feeding of the
mind of as great importance as
the feeding of the body; but, it is
to meet the demands of those
who want city paper that we
have made an arrangement that
will save them money.
/ For loug time we have been
in a position to furnish the New
York World three times week
in addition to the Fulton County
News for one dollar and seventy
five cents. This arrangement
suited our Democratic friends
and scores of them are to-day ia
king the ".lEwS" and Thrice a.
Week World together.
Owing to the fact that good
thrice-a-week Republican paper
came so high we have not been
able to offer one with the "News" "
to any advantage. Now, that diff
ticulty has been overcome to a
certain extent, and we are able to
announce that until further no
tlce we will furnish the New
York Thrice a.Week Tribune, the
leading Republican paper IN the
country and the Fulton COMFY y
News for Sl.75. The price of the
Tribune alone Is $3.50.

DIABOLICAL OUTRAGE.
Young Lady Assaulted on the Streets Of Nc
COnnellSburs, and Dragged Away
Into a Vacant Lot.
WHO WILL TELL US WHERE WE'RE AT =

WHU MILL IELL US "WHEkE ME- MI Al
One of the most diabolical out
RACES occurred in this borough
at an early hour last Wednesday
evening that has ever blacks sned
the fair name of McConnellsburg,
when Mss Mile Lynch. quiet,
modest, and highly respected
young girl of seventeen years of
age, was seized while passing
along the street at the Court
House by four tiends in human
form, two of whom stifled her
cries and dragged her by main
force back through the yard be.
tween the Court House and Jail
into vacant lot; and had it not
heeu for the prompt appearing
or the scene of one of our citizens
whose attention had been direct.
ed to the matter. causing the vii
lains to flee, an outrage would
have been com mitted more damn
able than any ever perpetrated
by an ignorant negro in the South.
While not succeeding 10 the ac-
com plishment of their helllsh
purpose on account OF the deter
mined struggle of the girl and
the appearance of the citizen, yet
the girls clothing was almost
torn off her.
What makes the crlme more
a.rocious Is the fact that Miss
Lynch is a young lady whose
character is above reproach, and
comes from highly respectable
family. She is daughter of the
late Monroe Lynch of Belfast
township, who was brave veter-
an of the Civil War, and served
many years a school director In
his township. After the fathers
death, the mother kept the chill
dren together, and has had the
satisfaction of seeing them grow
up in the enjoyment of the es-
TEEN and respect of the entire
community IN which they live.
Several weeks ago Millie came
up to the home of her cousin Ell
mer Peck, and took care of Ell
mer's wife during an illness; and
then about two weeks ago, went
to the Harris home in this place
to do general housework.
The young lady being stran-
ger here showed no disposition
to form acqualntances, and was
as careful and prudent in her con.
duct as the most exacting could
wish.
Early last Wednesday evening,
Miss Lynch was sent to tho store
on an errand with instructions to
call at the bakery on her return.
This she did promptly, and WAS
on her return home about hall
past seven o'clock under the full
glare of the street lights, when
she was assaulted as before stated
Miss Lynch being a stranger
here, did not know the names OF
her assaiiants, but thinks she
would recognize them ii she would
see them.
Nothing has been done to bring
the desperate characters to jus
tice.
For the sake of the honor o1
the town, and for the aafety N
her wome en-, 1t behoovcs the citi
zens Of the town not to let the
matter pass without some atten
ton; for there is no telling whose
daughter wall be the next victim
and it may not always happer
that some one will be able TO res
cue the victim iu as opportune
tim -, as was this.
Had those gentlemen tried th'
same game in many another towI
there would have been four youus
