ing important to threaten his rear while
marching in west Tennessee. Under the
belief that Rosecrans had been weakened
by loss of detachments sent TO Buell., he
attacked the works around the town on
Oct. 3 and biyouacked that night within an
easy rifle range of the citadel. Zone hour
of daylight" he said would have given
him victory. He ordered the attack re-
newed on the morning of the 4th, but ow-
ing to the sickness of Gen. Hebert, one of
his division leaders, the fighting was de-
layed until Rosecrans got his troops in
hand at the threatened points and saved
the day. by n narrow chance. Van Dorm
retreated, and west Tennessee was safe for
a time.
Van Dorm fell into temporary disfavor on
account of his failure at Corinth, but he
had friend at court who was no less per
sonagc than Jefferson Davis himself. Davis
had really brought about the Corinth affair
by ordering that Van Dorm should control
all the troops in Mississippi. But for that
Van Dorm would have been less presump-
tuous. After Corinth he was superseded by
Gen Pemberton and took command Of a
corps. Neither failure nor loss of prestige,
however, could dampen his ardor. and after
the excitement over Bragg's invasion had
subsidized and Gen. Grant had resumed tho
forward movement down the Mississippi
overland, the long exposed line of Union
communications in northern Mississippi
and west Tennessee invited such attacks
as Van Dorm had heretofore planned but
had not been able to carry out. The supply
depot of Grants land column was Mt Holly
Springs, Miss, on the Mississippi Central.
After Bragg's failure in the Kentucky
invasion he had settled his army down
at Murfreesboro, in the central part OF
the state, TO cover Chattanooga, Grants
threatening movement toward Vicksburg
was so alarming in the eyes Of the Rich
mond people that Bragg was called upon
to send troops back TO Mississippi. Feel
ing that he had enough TO do at home &c
take care of tho Army of the Cumberland
that had bounded him out of Kentucky
and was still hot on the trail he sent Gen
Forrest to raid west Tennessee and, Il
possible, defeat Grants plans. Forrest die

did not strike below jackson, Tenn, sew

One form Of nervous headache, which Is
unmistakable, though not always under
stood as such, says Good Housekeeping,
consists Of dull, grinding pain at the
back Of the head near the base OF the brain,
where the nerves Of the spinal cord enlarge
and ramify for the formation Of the brain.
Pain in this locality, frequently extending
down the neck, is a sure indication OF inn
paired nervous action, and should be
treated accordingly. In another direction
nervous trouble produces violent head
ache-that Is from the medium OF the
stomach. With many people any deep OF
sudden emotion, such as grief, fear or even
Joy, may partially or entirely paralyze the
action OF the stomach; there is an utter alb
sence Of appetite, and the serious headache
which results is simply the indication o.
the trouble When it is removed, and th'
stomach resumes its accustomed action
the headache will disappear

COMMON MISTAKES.

Some Lapses In Politeness Not unknown
Even In the Well Bred.
A common lapse in good breeding, noted
by Marion Harland in The Housekeepers'
Weekly, is the habit Of reluctantly accept
ing an invitation. II a friend or acquaint-
ance invites you to her house she is be-
slowing a compliment upon you, and you,
as the honored person, should consider 1t
as such.
II you can accept, do so gracefully, not
condescendingly. One young man, whose
youth must be his only excuse, told an
elderly lady that he would like to dine
with her, as she wished him 10 do, but that
"business detained him so late at the Office
that he would have to disappoint her." She
manifested her genuine ladyhood by not
smiling Mt the patronizing declinature.
When forced 10 refuse an invitation do so

authority quoted, sis that Of undue Ia

Hot Drink for Thirst.

Il is a mistake TO suppose that cold drinks
are necessary TO relieve thirst. Very cold
drinks, as "A rule, increase the feverish con
dition OF the mouth and stomach and so
create thirst Experience shows IL TO be n
fact that hot drinks relieve the thirst and
"cool Off" the body when it Is in an abnor-
mally heated condition better than ice cold
drinks IL is far better and safer to avoid
the use OF drinks below 60 dogs; in tct, a
higher temperature is TO be preferred, and
those who are much troubled with thirst
will do well TO try the advantages to be de
rived from hot drinks, instead Of cold fluids
towhich they have been accustomed, advises
The Bakers Helper. Hot drinks also hav,
the advantage Of aiding digestion, instead
Of causing debility Of the stomach and
bowels.

This took place a month before the bat
tie of Shiloh, on the east side Of the Missis-
zippi. and at that very time Gen. Halleck
was sending troops down the country to
attack Beauregard at Corinth. Van Dorm
was ordered by his superiors TO place his
army within supporting distance of Beau
regard. He answered the instructions by
SAYING that he would relieve BeaureRard
BY giving battle TO the enemy at New
Madrid" ION the Mississippi, or by march
ing boldly and rapidly toward st. Louis"
Either Of these moves would have been
blow I'm the rear Of Grant, who was strug-
Cling on toward Shiloh, and had they been
made the history Of the war in the Mlssis-
sippi valley would doubtless have been
changed. But while on the march toward
the Mississippi Van Dorm was suddenly or
dered TO take his command as quickly as
possible to Memphis. He did 50, but too late
TO save Beauregard at Shiloh, and his OPP
portunity to strike blow in Grants rear
on the upper Mississippi had passed.
After the Confederates abandoned Cor
inth and the new commander Bragg, had
transferred the bulk Of the forces TO Chat

LIGHT AND VISION.
Hygienio Qualities of the Three Princi
pal Sources of Light.

Hygienio Qualities OF the Three Princi-
pal Sources of Light.
A German physician has investigated the
influence upon acuteness Of vision OF the
three principal sources OF light-daylig
gaslight and the electric light-as well as
their hygienic qualities. He finds that by
gaslight the acuteness of vision Is lessened
by about one-tenth as against daylight,
while it is increased with the electric light,
especially as regards the distinction OF col
ors The effectiveness of the electric light,
however, is much diminished by fogs, but
this can be easily offset by increasing tho
intensity Of the light,
The glare of the electric light finds many
directors, but this can be avoided by means
OF a glass ball, lessening the brightness OF
the light about 20 per cent The bright
ness OF the white and violet rays OF the
electric light Is best overcome by yellow
shade; the yellow and red Of gasllght, by q
blue shade. In using gaslight It must DO
kept at certain distance, on account OF
the immense amount OF heat evolved
while In using the electric light 1t may be
brought near by, the disagreeable intensity
OF the light being lessened as much as nee
essary. According TO the investigations OF
Renk, a gas Jet furnishing rs much light
as an Edison burner will give off twenty
times as much heat as the latter.
The Munich Court theater was the scene
OF some interesting experiments TO prove
this point The theater, while empty, was
lit up with gas, and in an hour the tenn
perature in the gallery was raised from
l6 degs to "a dogs. r.. with electric lights
Of the same power the change was from
l6 degs. to II degs. When the house was
filled the difference was not so great, fol
human beings also produce great deal Of
warmth; with gas the final temperature
was 22s dogs. R.-a distressingly warn

THE PINE STREET TROUBLE.

Patrick and Mrs. Spellman Stand Trial
for Abuse.
Patrick Spellman and his wife, Mary
Spellman, appeared in Judge Janders' court
yesterday to answe the charge of abusing
Mrs. Mary Strawn. The story of the
trouble has already been told. Briefly
stated, it is that the Spellman hydrant
froze up during the late cold snap, and
they we're advised to get water from the
Morans. Not being on good terms with
the Morans, they went to Mrs. Mary
Strawn's where they were accommodated.
Mrs. Strawn subsequently revoked the
privilege. As to what occurred after that
the evidence was contradictory. The
witnesses on Zone side said Mrs.
Strawn struck the little Spellman
girl with a stick called her and her mother
bad names and knocked her down: and also
denied that the Spellmans abused Mrs.
strswn. spellman himself, in his evidence,
said, maybe my Irish brogue may have
been taken for abuse" Mrs. strawn's Wit
nesses denied that she struck the little
Speiiman girl, but were positive the elder
Spellmanns used very abusive language
toward Mr.. Strawn. The Spellmans were
represented by counsel, II. g. Davies, who
claimed that parents were justified in de-
Tending their children either by word or
act. Judge Sanders withheld his decision
until to-day. Martin Moran was an inter-
ested spectator at the trial.

From all the testimony which was given
at the court house yesterday before the
~coroner's jury q verdict was rendered to
the effect that Alfred McCarter came to his
death through accident. Thomas Jones
testified that he was in the saloon opposite
the hay market OH Main street last Friday
night when McCarter and John Larson
came in. McCarter had a ring which he
was showing to Larson and the latter wore
it until the two got ready to start for their
homes on the west side, when Larson re-
turned it. Jones saw McCarter get into hia
cart and helped to unhitch the horse, and
heard the cart drive over the electric motor
track. He says Larson did not get in the
the cart with McCarter. Larson says he
did. One theory about the bloody finger
marks o n the telegraph pole on Park ave-
nue. is that they we're made by Larson. II
is supposed that Larson m have come
back from the point whore McCarter was
found and got as far as the pole and cried
out for help: that he was the man

evidence threw no light on the mystery of

Reduction In tn. Price Of sugar.

April l that section of the McKinlev bill
referring to the abolition of the duty on
sugar goes into effect. In preparation for
this change, merchants all over the country
