Lumberton, \. c., July 23.-(Special.,-
Judge Sutton's court has been in session
this week. No cases of Importance were
tried except one or two murder cases
among negroes. The grand jury was
well mixed with whites, negroes anu
Croatans. but there is now being held to-
rether the most remarkable jury ever
constituted in North Carolina. 1t IS
sitting on murder case. and is composed
of six white men. three negroes ana
three Croatans. When the deputy takes
them out to meals. the six white men 80
by twos. the three negroes march to-
gether. and the three Croatans go by
themselves. They eat supper at the
Central Hotel, but sit at different tables,
but last night no hotel or boarding house
would furnish sleeping quarters for the
jury, for the reason they did not care
to furnish beds for negroes. Hence the
jury had to stay in the court house. Some
of the boys talk of getting snap ut this
jury and then enlarge the picture and
carry it around on the campaign to show
the results of fusion.
1t is said that a negro is taking the
census of white children in Back Swamp
man teacher had to go to Il negro com
mitteeman the other day to get her
voucher signed. There is no question
that Populists are getting disgusted with
this thing. A leading Populist was on the
jury this week, and when he saw that
the jury was one-third colored. and it
is said that one or two of the negro jury
men have been convicted Of crime in
previous courts, he became fully dis
gusted. and went about declaring his
purpose to work for the success of the
Democratic ticket.
There will be a big Democratic picnic
at Welle's Mineral Spring. about ten
miles north of Lumberton and six miles
from Rennert, and seven from Lumber
Bridge. on the Both. Ex-Governor Jar
Wis and other speakers are expected. This
picnic was arranged before the grand
rally for the Bird was published. so the
executive committee decided to have the
meeting on the Both. and have another
in Lumberton about the 10th of August.

and gratitied to see Democrats, mer-

places of business, urging the people

LYNCHING IN HALIFAX
A NEGRO FOUND TIED TO A PINE TREE
NEAR SCOTLAND NECK.
The People Greatly DepIore the Occurrence.
The Coroner has not Yet Held an In
quest--Bapiist Chautauqua
a Big Success.

Scotland Neck \. c., July 23.-The
people of this community were shocked
early this morning to learn that a col
ored man named Joe Williams had been
was found tied to a pine tree near the
railroad a mile from town on the road
leading to Tarboro. There was Il bul-
let hole in the back of the head, show
ing that it entered near the base of the
brain. There was also II bullet hole in
his back. Coroner Branch has been sent
for from Weldon, but can not reach here
before 5 o'clock. so the body will re
main untouched until the coroner comes.
Sometime last year there was some
trouble between the colored man and Mr..
w. Il. Vaughan, a farmer who lives
about two miles from town. and later the
colored man sent Mr.. Vaughan's son &,
very insulting letter. Sometime after
wards Williams was said to have been
whipped severely. He left the commune
ty at the suggestion Of some good white
men. who furnished him some money to
go on. Later he returned. Recently he
has been advised in friendly way to
leave the community. But he remained
with the result as stated above. The
good people of this community greatly
deplOre the occurrence.
The Baptist District Sunday school
chatauqua, held at Littleton this week
was Il great success. 1t opened Tues
day night and closed last night The adj
dresses were Of "A very high order and
the entire meeting was on a high plane.

MANHOOD ABOVE MONEY.
High Point EntrrDri.sa i

During Mr.. Ay2ock's spccc': at Thorn
asville last Wednesday, he said that
there was something better in this life
than money. The point was made ut
II climax in his speech which was very
effective. He gave as an illustration the
return of Hobson to the American ship
after his Imprisonment. He was accom-
panied by his friend Mr.. Astor. Il multi
millionaire. The first thing Hobson tried
to do was to introduce his friend Mr.. AS
tor. but the American seamen would not
listen to anything until their strong arms
had lifted the hero of the Merrimac
above their heads, and had done him all
the homage in their power. The deed of
Hobson was greater than anything that
money could buy.

Fowler: "Johnnie. you advise us fell

consistency in such proceedings. and that
he will hereafter vote the Democratic
