CRIMINAL CoURT Yesterday, Frank Roche
was placed on trial on charge Of assault and bat
terry on VIM. I'll. Wigles. This charge grew out
OF visit by the defendant to the lager beer house
of Joseph Gerhardt, on the 18th of March inst to
collect a bill. Gerhardt denied that he owed the
money, and ordered the defendant to leave his
house, and caught hold Of him and pushed him
into the street, where a number Of members of
the German Rifles, taking sides with Gerhardt,
pitched into Wigles and beat him pretty severely.
He finally ran, the crowd being too numerous for
him, and meeting an officer claimed his protec-
ton. He was pursued by r oche and others, and
turning round he dealt Roche blow az he met
the officer The jury brought in a verdict Of
simple assault.
ii Holshur was tried on a charge of partici-
patton In the above assault and acquitted.
Jos. Gerhardt was also placed on trial on the
same accusation. After several witnesses had
been examined, IL was ascertained that the in
dictment was faulty in that the defendants name
had been spelled wrong. The case was ac-
cordingly postponed.
The court then adjourned till Tuesday, April
I'd next on account Of sickness In the family Of
Hon. Judge Crawford.

SKETCH OF GEN. REAUREeARD.-Gen. P. G.
Toutant Beauregard, the Commander in Chief
at Charleston, was born on his fathers planta-
ton. near New Orleans. He is descendant of
the most aristocratic Southern families His
father was wealthy and influential Louisiana
planter. His mother was of Italian origin, and
descended from the ducal Reggie family of Italy
Gen. Beauregard entered the United States Mil
itary Academy at West Point, at an early age,
where he graduated in 1888, taking the second
honors in class of forty five graduates and was
appointed to the corps of engineers. He was
promoted to First Leutenancy in June, 1910,
and in that capacity served with great distinction
during the Mexican war. He was twice brevet
ted ,sfor gallant aod merisorous conduct" 10 the
field the first time As Captain for The battles OF
Centreas and Churubosco, to date from August
20, 1847; aud again as Major for the battle OF
Cleoultepec To date from the 18th ofSeptember
Of that year Gen. Beauregard is about forty
three years of age, 10 prime of life and vigorous
health, erect as soldier well made aud remark
ably active There is greas spifir and dsterrni =
nation in his look, and he evidently possesses
great muscular power. The great characteristic
of the General is perfect method in all bis plans
He is regarded Que of the abest officers that ev-.
er was in the American army tA isad

How TO TAKE CARE OF THE HAIR.-As to
men, we may say, !, when the hair begins to fall
out, the best plan is to have it cut short; give
it a good brushing with moderately stiff brush,
while the hair is dry; then wash it we'll with
warm soap suds; then rub into the scalp, about
the roots of the hair, with little bay rum, BRAN
DIV, or camphor water. Do these things twice a
month--the brushing of the scalp may be profit
ably done twice week. Damp the hair with
water every time the toilet is made. Nothing
ever made is better for the hair than pure soft
water, if the scalp is kept clean in the way we
have named The use Of oils or pomatums, or
grease of any kind, is ruinous to the hair OF
man or woman. We consider it filthy practice,
almost universal though it be, for it gathers dust
and dirt. and soils whenever it touches. Moth
ing but pure soft water should ever be allowed
on the heads of children. 1t is a different prac-
tice that robs our women of their most beautiful
ornament long before their prime; the hair OF
our daughters should be kept within two inches,
until their twelfth year.-[HafPs Journal OF
