The law savs : No officer of the army on the active list shall hold any civil of fice whether by election or ap point ment," and any officer "who accepts or authorizes tne junc tions of a civil office shall thereby cease to be an oflicer of the army, and his commission shall thereby be vacated." This appears on the surface to require persons holding civil office to resign the same when they ac cept an army commission. How ever, there is yet standing room for both positions according to the decision of the Attorney General. He says this law refers to regular army officer's holding civil offices and that in the case ot a civil of ficers going temporarily at his country's call to fill a commis sioned office - expecting to lay aside the military office and rb-j turn before the expiration of the term it does not apply, and that if tae office is satisfactorily filled in his temporary absence the intents of the law are met. This seems to be -a relief in instances like Gen- Wheeler's case where he leaves his seat in congress to ac cept the commission of Maj. Gen eral of volunteers, though the case in point was that of Col. Melvih Grigsby, who holds the Attorney Ger oralship of South Dakota with his Colonelcy of volunteers. V Jbey'll Be Good Ones. A circular issued by Secretary Long gives some interesting details of the plans for the three new bat tleships recently authorized by Con grees. They are to be 368 feet in length, 72 feet beam, mean draft 23J feet, and displacement 11,500 tons. While not so large as some of the :new European ships of their class, they will surpass any of them in fighting capacity. Their side armor, of Harveyiz9d nickel steel, will be inches thick, the barbettes of i&e main battery armor 15 inches, and the turret armor 14 inches'. The armament will include four IS -inch turret guns and 14 6 inch broadside guns, while the secondary battery will contain 24 rapid-fire &ad machine guns. The maximum speed will be 17 knots. Atlanta Journal. We see that the Charlotte banks h ave issued notice that they will e&sn no checks or drafts and accept ncme as deposits after July 1st without the stamp affixed and cans celed according to law. The stamp fm checks and sight drafts is 2 cents, bat on notes and time bills of ex change it is 2 cents for every $100. The stamp to be used at present wilt be just like the common postage Et&mp, withthe letters "I. R. (in ternal revenue) added. I jro-Toxin inWilh. The Charlotte Observer, speak of the death of Mrs. Monteith from poison taken in ice cream, says : s " "The techrical name of the poison from which Mm, Montietb died is ivro-toxin. It was for a long time thought that such poison j was due to cbemical sunstances formed by the metal of the freezer in contact with milk. However, it is now known to scientists that this poison is the sole product of milk which has undergooe a chemical change through the ac tion of germs. These germs in milk often produce ehdlera infan tum in children, and the sickness known as cheese poisoning. Tyro toxin, the poison which ended Mrs. Mcntieth's life, is one of the most deadly poisons known. It sometimes destroys infants in a tew hours and adults in a day. It is likely to exist in any milk or) t L Til i iruztm cream. jLuurt; nro uu kuovvu means of detecting this poison in advance of the effects produced, except bv a chemical analysis. The tyro-toxin germs are gen erally associated with conditions of putrefaction or uncleanliness in the milk supply. The symp toms produced by this poison are very similiar to those which de velop in Asiatic cholera or arseni cal . poison. A collapse of the phvsical frame, or general exhans- tion, follows the taking of this' poison into the stomach of the human being. In view of all these facts, and they are given on the authority of an eminent physician, it would be well for everybody to haye a care as 10 me conaition oi cream or) milk which is used for food." Milk always has been drunk and always will be and it is used ten thousand times with good re sults to one Of evil and yet no one feels safe to be eatiag ice cream or drinking unboiled milk while there is a possibility of deadly poison in it. It is to be hoped that no etiort will be spared here in Concord to guard against this evil. Several cases ot milk poison ing have occurred recently. Too much caution cannot be exercised.

Four of the inmates of the jail, Bill Boyd, Sam Garmon, Dan Moore and Jno. Plunkett, came! near making their escape last Saturday. They had succeeded in filing several small bars, had taken out one large bar and had another one of the large ones nearly filed apart. Very probably they would have j made their escape Saturday night but Jailer Hill detected it and went up and attended to the matter. They had used the steel spring from one of their shoes, and by the assistance of a file they had made teeth in it. It is very probable that a negro here in town had given them the file! Mr. Hill found their ; string, which he thinks brought the file up to the .window. Taken to Morgan ton. Mr. Will Barringer, of No.' 5 township, whose application to the insane asylum was sent in last week, was taken to that place Saturday morning. He will not talk to any body, and had nothing to say in regard to leaving, home. He was taken by Mr. Nelson Earnhardt keeper of the county home. ' THE BATTLE OF LaQUASINA - rinm Atnfricans Killed! lAlcru " ana 60 WoundeU-THe Spaniards L.eave39 Iead-Tlielr Defeat IVa Dlscourasrlntf. The battle on last Friday n the way to Santiago will probably be known as the battle of L&Quasina, and will long be spoken and written of bsfore the stones of heroism, will do justice to the participants The ambuscade was well laid, ahc the Rough Riders walked right int it Nothing but the inviDcibl courage that always weakens ai. enemy, saved them from defeat and disaster. It is painful to report, though, that there were sixteen, probably more, instead of twelve of our brave warriors lost on the field, and as many as 60 were wounded. While no number of slain Span iards can compensate for these precious lives, the Spaniards can take no comfort from the battle, for with a superior force and on their own chosen field, where nature was made to contribute to our fatalities, they were driven and routed with at least 39 left dead on the field. There can be no fair estimate of the killed and wounded removed. Victory for the Americana was com plete and the defeat for the Span iards was humiliating and discour aging. It is now said that no attempt will be made to take Havana until next fall. This will infurate the ferocious editors and politicians who keep up the cry, lOn to Havana !" If they are not able to brook the delay they may find re lief by organizing an army of their own and capturing Havana at once. Atlanta Journal. No. 10 Township Among tbe First. We are informed that Mr. Frank Harfeeli, ofv.Np. 10 township, was d9 early as any 'of them in having a cotton bloom. , He had sent it to Concord for fhe people to see it. but it got lost However, he was amoDg the firs'. , Leiter lost 65,000,000 of his own and his daddy's money after all his brilliant success in the wheat pit. Nobody cares what Leiter lost. He cost the people of this country many millions more than his losses, and they are delighted that he has been knocked out. Atlanta Journal. Heroism and cowardice are not synonymous with fearlessness and fear. A hero fears to do wrong; a coward fears to do right. Ex. There has not baen any special war developments in the war field since Saturday. Announcement.
