It is clear that business is meant at Santiago and while the grand battle is probably several days or a week off minor engagements may be expected almost daily. One occurred Friday that was fcr tho time sharp and sanguinary. A dispatch from the Associated r-BS says : 'This morniug (Friday) lour troops of the First Cavalry and eight troops of Roosevelt's Rouh Riders, less than a thousand men, dismounted and attacked 2,000 Spanish soldiers in the thickets within 5 miles of Santiago de Cuba- The Americans beat the enemy back into the city, but they left the following dead upon the field: Rough Riders Capt. Allyn K Capron, of Troop L; Sergeant Hamilton Fish, Jr ; Priyates Till man and Dawson, both of Troop L; Private Dougherty, of Troop ' A.; Private W T Erwin, ot Troop F. First Cavalry Privates Dix York, Bojork, Kolbe, Berlin and Lcnmock. Tenth Cavalry Cor poral White. At least 50 Ameri cans were wounded, including six officers. Soveral of the wounded will die. Twelve dead Spaniards were foirnd in the bush after the fight, but their loss was doubt Jess far in excess of that. The Americans dow hold the position at the threshhold of Santiago de Cuba, with more troops goiDg forward con stantly and they are prepare ing for a final assault upon the city." Through Hag of truce inter course it is learned that Lieu tenant Hobson and ti? men are in the city safe. Morro Castle is therefore not pro tected by their presence and it need be no surprise if Samp son tnes its strength very soon. The probability is that if Morro can be reduced and the Merrimac is not too much in the way Admiral Sampson will thrust in some of his war vessels to engage Ceivera's fleet and draw the fire from our soldieis. There U IjO loitt ring to rest, it seemp, but Gen. Shifter i pressing on as fast it seems a? the quaitermaster and the ord nance depaitments can follow. As the Spaniards hare re treated they hav. bfen de stroying block homes and vil lager, but at Juraga Gen. Li nares "with 1,2(0 men were driven out in such haste that the town was spired from the flames. It is now said that Gen. Miles v. ill procet d in person and will take command at Santiago. Camara'j fleet is t-aid to have been sighted in the Med iterranean Sea, with the ap pearauca of heading for the Suez Canal and; the Philip pines. This Rives little un easiness to the government, as it is felt that Dewey will be master of the situation How )ver, it is entirely probable that when the Santiago matter is closed a ileet will be sent to Spain to destroy the corns merce and even bom' ard the ports of Spain. The govern ment now feels that it will take some hard knocks to bring Spain to terms.

The cable is now connected and there is direct communication be tween our army and navy at San tiago and the government at Wash ington.

Documentary and proprietary stamps will beou sale at the Collecs tors office, all branch iflices Bird other places. They, may be sold to any person whether for use or re sale, and when purchased in qianti ti'S of $100 or mnr in vilue at on time, a discount of one per cent, will be allowed, All tbe e stumps will ba ou sale on and after July 1, 1898, they day they go into effect.

IIaiikins, Collector. Mlud Your Mluinpa. The s't-mp taxes proeided in the war revenue bill will go into tHoCt July 1, and it would be well for everybody to become familiar with them bt fore that time, as penalties are provided for failure to affix tbe proper stamp to papers and docu ments which are to be taxed under the new law. Let it be remembered that each bank check or draft must ber a stamp. So must every bill of lading mortgages, conveyance?, leases, pow- e s of attorney, warehouse receipt? eiegrnpn messages and x press packages. Jn every case tbe stamp must be tiflixed and the person affix ng it must cancel it by writing arroes its face bis initials and the e. The tax act provide that if any inslrua.ent or document tpecified Kd er.bj 'Ct to a tax stamp is left un- s'smped "with intent to evade tbe provisions of this act,'' the offender shall be deemed guilty of a ni if de meanor, ard upon conviction, shall be'0ned not exceeding $50, or im prisoned not excudirtg eix months, or both. It will bo difficult to prove tbat thj ttunip was left off with inten ' i n to evade the law, but failure to -fill the s amp will in many caees lead to antoyance by the authorities, nd may involve costs in a United S utcs commissioner's court. Another provision cf the law is that "such instrument, document or paper not being stamp d according to law shall be der mod invalid and of no effect." Ibis provision is especially im portant in real estate transactions, A deed to real es'ate for which the consideration exceeds $100 and does oot exceed $500 mutt bear a 50 cent stump, and there must be a similar stamp for each additional $500 The failure to dllx the prop?r number of stamps will invalidate the deed . Each promissory nolo for nicro than $100 must beir. a 50 cent stamp, and without it there might b? some d.fliculty in collection. The government hns wisely given tho people towitks in which to become fumi:iar with tie various provisions of the tax ac', and by July 1st every intelligent citizen ought to know ;'uet vilmt is rf quired of him under 'his law.

The game Thurs !ay evening was much better for the reason that not so many runs were made, and occas sionaily neither team would score in ai inning. Mr. K ates, of Greensboro, was selected as umpire with Mr. Wil liamson Morris assistant. The bat tery for the opposing team wa Tate aud Crutcbfield, while Joe Fieher and Dolph Mamum did our pitch ing and Oldham caught behind the bat. Some excellent plajs were made by both teams, but there was not a home r..n or 'over-the fence" bit made, Joe Fisher struck out 3 mou and Mangutn also struck out 3, while Tate, their sole pitcher for the game, only struck out 3. At the beiuninj of tbe last half of tbe ninth iuning, Concord's score stood 7 to 0, but by some means Greensloro gotons run. This last inning was more inter. eting than any part of the Rams, This was the only time that the crowd could not be kept bthind the lines. The root ers got in their wora here eepecittl'y.

We must say, as it 's nothing more than just, that Greensboro certainly sent a nice crowd of young men in tl eir baseball team. We don't think that there was an enemy made by the game and all seemed to be conserya- tive as to the game. The fact tha' Concord beat them playing ball did not cause them to be lowered in anyone's estimation, and our boys became somewhat attached to some of them during tbe two days' stay. LAID TO RES V.

AN UNKNOWN NEGRO Found floating In Rorky Klver t'uilcr the Railroad Rrldice A 1'tiro-ncr-a lninMt Held No fine Able to Identity Him A Midnight IihiuonI- Late Thursday evening Rti'road Sup rvisor HiuJtrlite brought word to Coucoid that he found a dead nsgro floating in Rocky R ver under the railr ad bride, which ia abon a mile an J a half on this side of llarrieburg. Coroner Deneon Caldwell at o ice summoned part of his jury here an J the crowd, which consisted of Sher iff Buchanan, Deputy Will Props', Jailer Hill, J L Brown, Frank Mor rison and a Standard reporter, at once It ft for R GKy River to Lold the icques' . Arriving at the place of the scene, several citizms from Harrisburg were waiting. The coroner then ad ministered tbe oath to the follow ing jury: Messrs. Frank Morrison, J L Brown, C L Erwin, Will Propst, Rufus A Dry and J F Alexander. The body was found floating in the wa'er near the bank. They at last succeeded in getting the body out on the bink and commenced tbe inquest . It was found to be the body of a large negro, looking to be about 35 years of age. Bis right leg was broken both above and be low the kcee from his fall. The back of bis head was burstcd open, and one eye was completely knocked out. Ihe skull over the eve was also broken. He was a wd! devel oped negro. He wore a small checked shirt with separate cuds witlt link cuff buttons had on no vest, but wore a nice pair of shoes with pecadilla toes. He has two very large upper teeth and are to erably wide apart. Beverai tnings, sucn as a pnrs", empty pocket book, match safe, smoking tobacco, collar, handkers chief, fo.ir. in-hand tie, pip, etc., were found in hie pockets, aho two photographs of colored women, but nothing could be found on his per son that would help to identify him. Sheriff. Buchanan has the two pho tographs and will try and find some thing out by them if poasib'e. The jury, after examining bim thoroughly, made out their formal report, stating that they euppoaed tbat he came to his death either by falling off of the train or by being knocked off by an engine. The re port was signed up at 11 30 that flight. The body was tolerably badly decomposed, making it very offensive for holding an inquest. As a ccflin could not be obtained yet that night, the body was left lying on tbe bank . There is, of course, different sup positions as to bow be was killed. It is probib'e tbat he was killed by standing on the steps of the moving train and was looking towards tbe rear of tbe train when he was struck by tbe side frames of tbe bridge. It is very probable that his body had been in the water at least three days. The body was buried on the river bank this (Friday) morning at the expense ot the county, il n'e a number of our people conjecture that the negro was Knocked from the excursion train on Monday night. The excuraion was from Winston to Charlotte. When they left Charlotte tbat night the train was very much crowded, soma hang ing on the eitai and eome even on top of the train. He could have vt-ry easily been k locked off suddenly and the others not hare kuown it. Charlotte WanlN tu See l'w I'lay.

Garcia and llabbi, about &,UU m number, greeted the Americans with warmth and were of material aid in deploying in the van and secunug them from sudden attacks. It has been ascertained that the fortifications around Santiago are drawn into a circle where the heavy guns of Cervera's fleet can be available and there will hardly be any seri ous fighting beyond that line, Some of the guns are said to have been taken from the fleet to the laud fortifications.
