On September nth. in letter to Early
General Lee suggested that he might
draw Sheridan up the Valley. and then
turn on him. kershaw was then on the
march 10 Richmond. General Lee always
wanted 10 lie on the offensive. On Sep
TENDER 18th Early was defeated at Win
chester in a battle on an open plain
which, Sheridan's report says, lasted
from early in the morning until o'clock
IN the evening. He adrTts that the issue
was at one time doubtful; that his centre
was broken, and that he had to put in
the last OF his reserves TO restore his
line and retrieve his fortune. No battle
Of the war was more stubborny con-
tested. The South lost the field but not
It's honor. The setting sun still shone
with its morning splendor.
II Is clear that Sheridan had not in
tended to attack Early. but to move
round his flank and push him south. so as
10 relieve the railroad and canal, and then
return. He determined on the attack OH
hearing that Early, on the 18TH, mad
marched two divisions over twenty miles
away 10 Mart!nsbcrs. But for that move
ment there would have been no battle.
Early had not heard then or Grants visit
TO the Valley. On the l7th Grant teie-
graphed Halleck from Harpers Ferry 10

ington. as Sheridan might want 10 throw
a force into Hagerstown. On the 2lst he
again said to HallecS:
Il thought 1t possible. though not proba-
Bile. that Early might turn north or send
his cavalry north. wnen Sheridan COM
menced his movement. and in that case
wanted troops In Washington, so that a
force might be thrown suddenly into Ha-
gerstown to head them on"
On the 18th Sheridan told Stevenson;

THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIZAN.

THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIZAH.
Bowler, a writer OF high authority,
says:
The partisan leader commands a corps
whose object is to injure the enemy by
action separate from that of his own
main army; the partisan acts chiefly
upon the enemy's lines OF communication
and connection, and outside of and be-
You'd the lines of operation OF his own
army, in the rear of and on the TANKS OF
an enemy. But he Is part and parcel of
The army, and as such considered en-
titled 10 the privileges of the law of war

In his work from which | have before
quoted. General Hamley says: Nothing
but the disabling of the enemy by heavy
defeats can prevent these enterprises
against the communications"

my command was smply an auxiliary
OF the main Confederate army. The lost
wagon train was a ghost that would not
down. on the 18th Halleck reminded
Sheridan OF 1t in telegram;
"A scout says that Mosby told him that
he captured one OF your trains, OF seventy
or eighty wagons. Is that true?"
Answer:
"Mosby captured about forty wagons
from one OF my trains. The train was

had selected this scorching day to shop
was incomprehensible-a least to the
finite masculine mind. But the big
shop was packed and jammed with
Them. They all looked utterly tagged
cut and many showed signs of growing
irritation.
Two women of widely contrasting
types paused for moment on the OUT
skirts of this human vortex. They
stood at opposite points, equally dis
slant from that portion of the long
counter dedicated to Remnants.
Neither was young. The one, evident
ly q country woman, had the placidly
stupid gaze of a Illuminating cow. the
other was distinctly product of New
York. She was dressed in rusty black.
Bits of crepe were pinned at uncertain
intervals upon her costume. Her shabby
bonnet. with its drunken plu me, was
very much over one ear. She wore the

living eight miles east of Toqeka, has
been arrested. The murdered is also a
boy, being only Is years old. His name

Justice MARBLE and made confession.
He was bound over to the district court,

IllSton said that the killing was acci-
