day or night, nnd ho did not leave ft watch
with mo at that time ; ho never left a gold
watch with mo ntall; I was hauling lum
ber that day, and I recollect Tully and
McIIugh being to dinner with me, along
with others; John Dooly, Barney Connor,
James Downing were tho other persons who
wcro at dinner ; McIIugh went for his pay
and Tully stayed with mo; McIIugh came
back about eight o'clock in tho evening ;
we remained thero until 10 o'clock in the cv'g;
McIIugh was tight when he camo back ;
there were eight or nino men present; he
called for, drinks nil around ; he laid down
and went to sleep; ho was asleep about half
an hour; when ho nwoke he ordereil drinks
for tho crowd ; but on going to pay for them
ho found that his pocket-book was missing ;
he swore that no one should leavo tho bar
room until tho pocket-book was returned ;
my wifo afterwards found it on tho floor,
and I called him nut into the kitchen and
gave it to him ; McIIugh had been board
ing with mo for some four or five months bo
foro ; when McIIugh was going away ho
, told me that he was gofng to Wilkes-Barre ;
I bought his gun when he left, as ho said he
did not want to carry it with him; I paid
him fifteen dollars for it ; Tully, AIcAigh
and Kelly did not leavo my house together ;
I did not see Patrick Hester the day Ilea
was murdered, or for a week beforo that
day.
Crsss-examination :
I first saw Tully and McIIugh on Octo
her 17tb, beforo dinner; they were helping
me beforo dinner; they began work at about
seven o'clock in tho morning ; I do not re
member whether they were at breakfast or
not ; cannot tell where they were tho night
before; can't remember scoing them on
Friday; they wcro at breakfast on Friday
morning; on Saturday morning McIIugh
helped mo to haul lumber ; Dooly, Con
nor and Downing wero also working with
me ; I used a two horso team ; tho lumber
camo from an old pieco of trestling at ono of
tho breakers, which 1 had bought for fit
tecu dollars ; tho men worked for their
board : do not know why.
Tully and M'Hugh wero not at work in
tho mines; do not remember any poster
that day ; do not remember of any poster
wagon being at my tavern that day; do not
believo that I had a rattle at my house that
night; I shut up my house at nino or ten
o'clock that night ; Thomas Bradley, -Mar
tin Bailey were among the men that
McIIugh treated ; did not know that Tully
and McIIugh went to Shamokin after tney
left me ; I gavo him fifteen dollars for his
gun; my wile owed him five dollars, which
was also paid to him ; McIIugh boarded
with mo from the day Rea was murdered
until tho day ho was paid the twenty dol
lars ; when McIIugh left ho told mo that
he was going to Wilkes-Barre to work ;
Tully did not go away with him as I re
member; I never belonged to tho Molly
Maguires ; but I belonged to what was call
ed tho Hibernian society ; they were not
called the Ancient Order of Hibernians; I
joined it in the summer of 1807; I left in
the spring of 1SG8 ; Griffiin was a member ;
do not remember who was the Body Master;
saw Hester and McIIugh nttho meetings,
but I do not remember ever seeing Kelly
and Skiverton at tho meetings; I do not
know whether Tully was a member or not;
do not know who was tho secretary ; Mc
IIugh and Tully boarded with mo about a
month or so after Rea's murder ; I cannot
tell whether they went away two weeks af
ter tho murder or not ; think they were at
work on the day before the murder.
Never saw or heard of Kelly's having a
gold watch ; cannot tell when I first heard
of Ilea's murder, but it was iato 011 Satur
day night or on Sunday morniug; I was ar
rested as an accessory after the crime ; I
was released a week ago last Saturday; I
was placed in tho jail about two weeks be
fore ; when I was brought from tho Potts-
illo jail with Hester, Tully, McIIugh and
Kelly.
uy me ueicnse : 1 was arretted in my
bar-room upon a charge of being an acces
sory after the fact ; I was arrested by Offi
cers Bridge and Buch tier, of tho Coal and
Iron Police ; they kept me all night in an
office in Shamokin, nnd the next morning
took mo to Pottsville; I had a hearing be
foro 'Squire Reed and was then placed in jail;
by Mr, Linden's talk it was Daniel Kelly's
talk that was tho cause of ray being arrested.
Tho defense then offered to prove by the
witness, Michael Graham, that Kelly was
around Locust Gap until about Juno, lSG'J,
when he ran away to avoid arrest; that
when he left, Graham had been assisting iu
trying to cflect his arrest, and Kelly made
threats against Graham,
The couusel for the prosecution objected
to the otter, as whatever feeling Kelly had
against tho witness had nothing to do with
this trial, The Judgo decidrdto admit
evidence as far as showing what threats
Kelly made against tho witness.
Upon being questioned Mr, Graham sta
ted that Kelly had never used any threats
to him,, but other persons had told him.
Peter Luby recalled: Knew Hester in
18C8 ; saw him tho night before Ilea was

Tho popular belief that tho moon's rays
will cause madness in any person who sleeps
exposed to them has long been felt to bo
absurd, and yet It lias appeared to havo Its
sotireo in undoubted facts. Some .deleteri
ous influence is experienced by thoserlio
rashly court slumber in full moonshine, and
probably there is no superstition to which
the well-to-do pay moro attention. Win
dows aro often carefully covered to keep the
moonbeams from entering sleeping rooms,
A gentleman living in India furnishes "Na
ture" with an explanation of this phe
nomenon which is at least plausible. Ho
says : "It has often been observed that when
tho moon is full, or near its full time, there
aro rarely any clouds nbout ; nnd if there be
clouds beforo tho full moon rises, thoy aro
soon dissipated ; and therefore a perfectly
clear sky, with a bright full mocn, is fre
quently observed. A clear sky admits of
rapid radiutlon of heat from tho surface of
tho earth, and any person who is exposed
to such radiation is euro to bo chilled by
rapid loss of heat. Thero is reason to be
lloyo that, under the circumstances, paraly
sis ot one sldo of the ft.ee is sometimes like
ly to occur when tho sky is perfectly clear.
I have often slept in the open air in India
on a clear summer night, when there was no
moon ; and although the first part of the
night may have been hot, yet toward two or
three o'clock in tho morning, tho chill has
been so great that I have often been awak
cued by an ache in my forehead, which I as
often have counteracted by wrapping a
handkerchief round my head, and drawing
the blanket over my face. As tho chill is
likely to be greatest on a very clear night,
and tho clearest nights are likely to be thoso
on which thero is a bright moonshine, it is
very possible that neuralgia, paralysis, or
other similar injury caused by sleeping in
tho open air, has been attributed to tho
moon, when the proximate causo may really
havo been the chill, and the moon only a re
muto cause acting by dissipating tho clouds
aud haze (if it do so), nnd leaving a perfect
ly clesr sky for tho play of radiation info
space." Scientific Mitcellany in the Galaxy

A Story About Eggs.
A tr.iveler in Sicily paid his bill at an inn
and found out, after ho had gone somo dis-tanc-
on the road, that ho had ntyt betn
charged for a couple of hard-boiled eggs.
He was a very honest man ; but had press
ing business. So, instead of going back to
pay then and there, he waited till he came
round ncain. This was not till ten years af
ter. No wonder therefore, when he asked
the innkeeper, "Do you know mri?" tho man
said: "Not I, indeed 1" "Well," replied the
traveler, "teu years ago I ate two hard boiled

the Court sustained the objection.
Michael Graham was then placed upon
the stand to contradict Mr. Bridge. Two or
three witnesses testified as to Peter Luby's
good character. A motion was made to
strike out tho evidence of Mr. Ikcler but tho
Court refused to do so. This closed the ev
idence and the winesses subpoenaed were all
discharged.

if I give you fifty pieces, (twelve shillings)
that will fairly represent what the price of
the eggs havo gained in my hands." But
tho landlord was a fraud : so ho said : "Fif
