Representative Payne's bill to extend
the customs and international revenue

introduction Of Porto Rico win be con-

on the Dill fayorably. 1t is not certain
however, that the report will be made

tending the revenue laws over Hawaii

possible.

A GOOD MAN PASSES TO HIS
REWARD.

RE ARD.
Greenville, N. c.. May 4-Mr. Thos.
j. Sheppard, of Carolina township, this
county, died Thursday morning. He
was within fourteen days Of being 80
years old. A week before his death he
had his measure taken and a coffin
made out OF lumber that he had sawed
forty years ago at his own mill for that
purpose. His wife died few years ago
and they had no children. He was a
man of great energy and was possessed
OF n snug fortune at the time of his
death. He owned much real estate, a
large water mill and had several thous-
and dollars III cash. He always kept
his money At home, lived plainly and
was never known to buy anything on
credit. He kept an itemized account of
even the smallest transaction and was
scrupulously honest. In his last sick
ness he sometimes had as many as
four physicians with him and settled
wit hthem on every visit. Your cor
respondent learns that he left no will
and it is reported that distant relatives
from all quarters are flocking to his
late home to look after u division OF
the property. Doubtless there is q
harvest in prospect for the lawyers in
dispcsing of the estate.

I'm return for the treatment accorded

morning. They threatened to burn the
town also. and about fifty of our citi
zens remained UP all night guarding the
town.
No attempt in any way was made,
after the whites turned out armed. The
town was guarded again tonight. AS
one of our prominent citizens went on
guard last night he said: Let them at
tempt anything and there will be seve-
raj voters against the amendment
hunting seats in hades." This is only
another instance to show the nature OF
the negro as a dangerous element in
our midst

which emptied the treasury, and made
1t necessary to issue an enormous
amount Of irreleemnble paper, which
Is now practically worthless, to pay
the salaries Of the officials and other

closed because there were no funds to
pay the salaries Of the judges, the fees
