Charles' came back up street Saturday night and came in the store. After being cornered about the matter, and finding that he was getting in a close place, Tie took to his heels, through the back lots. He was pursued and was shot at with a pistol once or twice, the purpose being to scare and not to hit him. He was caught and held until Chief Boger 1 came and' took charge'of him: He was tried before Eq. Pitts and found guilty. In default of a $50 bond he now lies in jail awaiting the coming term of court. This negro is no stranger on the chain gang, having been on there several timbS. I THE BOMBAEDMENT ON.

It waJ kroed 'that it wonld hrW at t terms bombarding a city might be spared, bat it failed. Gen. Toral, now in command since Gen. Linares was wounded offered to eyacuate San tiago and retreat across the country to the west but such terms are not acceptable and are not entertained at all. Nothing but unconditional sur render will be accepted.

Shatter nonv thinks that he can prevent Gen. Toral from escaping. With 50 siege guns, a goodly and field batteries beside Samp- son s fleet, which is to join, it is not believed that Gen. Toral will hold out long. " 7 7 TTT The Southern is still on the line of improvement. She has already equipped two of her engines with electric headlights. To see the' engine coming at a distance it iooks exactly like an arc light, Ihe two engines already equipped are Nos. 319 and 324. Engine No. 319 was in the Harrisburg wreck over a year ago. . - -p .

In some jrespects this is well: It is looking after the public better, and they are the ones to cater to .The opposing team will consist of Charlotte players mostly, though Charlotte and Concord both want to see Mountain Island furnish the battery for the Charlotte boys, tfhis promises to be an interesting game land our boys are just aching to get a whack at the boys, A large crowd is expected to go from here and do the grand stand playing. ' We Dredict ho thine? to onr born but a victory, and probably it will be a big one similar to the One that Cheraw won from Charlotte; Another reason why our bo. s could not plav Monroe tomorrow was that they failed to make the triP tbey ha in view- hey were expecting this week to malcd a tour, PlaS Wadesboro. and ments could not be made with the - .

The team and our people will go over to Ohariotte on train No. 11 which comes at 11.15 .v As the team goes on a partv ticket thev can return on the vestibule that night, but Agent Dusenbery asks us to Ltate for the benefit of thJ people that none except the team can res turn on that train. The game will a very probably not be ended m time for the train leaving there about 6,30 bat if there is a tolerably Urge crowd the railroad comnanv will likely provide a passenger car or two and send them back by a freight dat leaves there that night Agent Dusenbury has applied for rates for the crowd going from, here. At the time of going to press he I had not received an answer to the telegram, but it is almost certain that they can make the round trip for 70 cents. The Southern had granted nermission to sell ticket at that rate last Friday, which was postponed, and for the same reason it is very probable that we will get the same rate again. Masonlo Notice.
