Every One Is a Jewel

The wisdom Of the aneients Is proven

that will stand the teeth of time:
Never tell all you know; for he that tells
everything lie knows often tells more than
he knows.
Never attempt all you can do; for he who
attempts everything he can do often at
tempts more than he can do.
Never believe all you may hear; for he
that believes all that he hears often be-
lieves more than he hears.
Never lay out all you can afford; for he
who lays out everything he can afford often
lays out more than ne can afford.
Never decide upon all YOU may see; for
he who decides upon all that lie sees often
decides on more than he sees.

oR. MOORE IN FEDERAL TolLs.

Dr. Nj. s Moore, who attained considerable noioristy in his city few months ago by reason of slls gad criminal carelessness, causing the desth of Mir. T. A. Keith, is sgain before the public. Federal officers arrived in the city yesterday and ar rested him on the charge of using the mails for fraudulent purpe ses. The charge is made by Dr. J. H. Waters, of Fordyce, Ark, Hho was recently indicted for selling liquor without license. He employed Moore to fix up the matter, snd gave him $50 to be used to the best advantage in bis cause. Waters now claims that Moore only used about $50 of the money in attending to the case, 3D. propriated the remainder to his own use, and positively refuses to refund. It is not known upon what ground Waters will make his charge Of illegal use of the mails, unless that he and Moore had some correspondence Cn the mstter, and in that way he founds his charge. Moore is now in Little Rock before the Federal court.
 We clipped the above from the Pine Bluff Commercial and submitted it to pr. J. A. Waters for his version of the sffsir, says the Fordyce Enter prise. pr. Waters stated that he had not been recently indicted for selling liquor without license nor for anything else, snd that he had not employed Moore to fix up any mat ter about any charge sgsinst him by the United States government; that about the 1st of August last Moore came to hiR and told him that there was sn accusation sgainst him st the United States revenue office for sell ing esTence of Jamaica ginger; that he (Moore) was & Re publican and stood in with the officers and could have the matter fixed up, and proposed to do so for S75. Wsters put him of. and after wards wrote to Henry Ii. Cooper 10 know if it was violation of the UGiled States law to sell essence of Jamaica ginger, snd received in re- ply letter informing him that it wss not. In the meantime Moore wrote Waters making by letter the same proposition that was made verbally ss above stated, and the letter forms the basis of the charge against Moore. Dr. Waters referred us to merchant of this place for information about S similar effort made by Moore to get money for fixing him up with the United States government.

Juggiery In India.

Sleight of-hsnd is spt to be sn hereditary talent, snd the cunning of the Hindoo coniurers is gift be- queathed with the secret of many tricks from generation to generstion. They still practice s gsinful profes- sion, which is very popular among sil classes of & superstitious race, who gre never prompted by scientific curiosity to find out how things gre done. Some of the surprising deeds of the jugglers have often, indeed, been imitsted by sleight of hand performers in the cities of the Occi- dent, smong them that of causing s plant or any other unexpected ob- iect 10 appear under basket or other cover, when it had not been there before the space wss covered Many of these tricks gre doubtless produced by dexierous manipulstions, while others cannot be explained in the same manner. It seems that hypnotism plays an important part iE these performances; the fakirs who do these feats gre generally gifted with extraordinary magnetic powers, snd by exerting their hypnotic influence over the audience they make the spectators believe thst they see things thst in reality do not exist, or witness proceedings that never have taken place.-From Frank Leslie's Weekly.

RAIkKAKER MELBOURNE.
Cold weathsr Causes His Experiments to
 Fail in Kansas.
THE PEOPLE CONFIDENT.
A Proposition Made to Water Two Million Acres of Cultivated Land Next
 Spring.

GooDLAsD, KAN, Oct. s-Frsnk Melbourne, the Australian rainmsker, closed his experiments st this place to committee of citizens, who had him under contract. He explained that the cold nights coun- teracted slI work he did during tho day, and it was useless for him to experiment further.
 Since the experimenting began, Northwestern Kansas received more rain thau ever fell before during the fall season. In this section of the state, whether or not the mysterious maghine brought the rains, the people have every confidence ia him.
 Yesterday msss meeting of citi- zens was held and Melbourne was asked to submit 6 proposition for watering forty counties of Western Kansas. The propo- sition was to water them at ten cents for each cultivated acre. There were this year ? 1000 ,000 scres under cult vstion in the counties which it Is proposed to water next spring. To raise tae amount the county commissioners will have to levy s tax. The opinions of leading attorneys in tsis state were resd showing that this could be done under the irrigs- ton law passed last winter.
 If Melbourne does not produce rain he will receive nothing. A con- vention Of counties interested will be called, st which the proposition will be submitted.

the government proclaimed the Land League to be sn illegal association, and Mir. Parneil issued No Rent'f manifesto. Parnell re- mained in the KiImamham jail until April, 1882, when he was released in order to attend the funeral of rela- tive. He was formally released May 3. Then followed the resignation of Mir. Forster and Lord Cowper, Phoenix Park murders aud stormy debates on the crimes bill. In these scenes, and the subse- quent organization of the National League in 1888 and parliament in 1ss4-5, Mir. Psrnell was the most conspicuous figure.
 On the dissolution of parliament he was returned, backed by eighty-sve members. It was to meet this situs- ton that Gladstone proposed the Home Rule, in which he was sup- ported by Mr. Parnell and the whole strength ol his party.
 The sensation growing out of the Psrnell commission and Times libel suit are of too recent occurrence to need special mention here.
 Misfortune overlook Mir. Par nell in public notice in his relation to Mrs. O'Shea, whom he recently married. The attitude of Mir. Gladstone snd the Irifh bishops compelled his deposition ss the Irish leader.
 In Dublin the late Irish leaders, supporters are in great consternation.
 A meeting Of these friends of Par nell was hastily called ss soon as the news of his desth was known, and st the meeting, which was preliminary gathering, it was decided that & meeting of sl' PsrnelIs followers of that city be called this evening. The object of this last meeting will be to consider what steps to take in the face of what msy be termed the most disastrous event for their party.
