MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.
How a Whole Neighb0rhOOd Was
Thrown into a State Of
Excitement through
Dream.

There was lively time Thursday night il
one of our First Dictrict residences. It seems
that gentleman, who for the present shall be
nameless, suffers greatly with nightmare, and
last night visit of unusual severity was paid
to our friend by that obstreperous nocturnal
animal.
The gentleman imagined he was being MUIR
dered, and yelled Justify for help, frightening
his poor wife almost out of her wits. He
jumped up in bed, and in his frantic endeav-
ors to Illustrate the murderous intent of his
imaginary assailant, he tore his night gar
ments to tatters, and bruised his arms and
knees severely.
His wife, becoming terrified, screamed out
for assistance, and the little child in the room
set up series of errible cries. This united
noise aroused all the neighbors, and served
to bring the police to the spot The officers
attempting in vain to open the front door,
went around to the rear and effected an en-
trance in that way to the house.
The noise they made, together with the
shreiks of the wife, caused the sleeper to
awake from his dream, and after few mo-
ments he understood the situation, and an
swering the calls of the officers. who were
then on the lower floor, he told them all was
right. This, however, did not satisfy them,
and he was compelled to dress himself and
60 down stairs to interview them.
His wife was then called for. and was COM
PEELED to dress herself AID come down stairs,
bringing with her the child in order to assure
the officers that all was indeed Fright" Thus
quiet was restored and the officers left the
house muttering their disappointment The
neighbors who had gathered in numbers
about the house withdrew in good order, and
the disturbed and disturbing family were
soon off again to the land of Nod.
The gentleman who was the innocent cause
of all the excitement is somewhat annoyed
about the matter, and is prepared to do battle
with any curious searchers after further par
ticulars. This visit of the nocturnal equine
will long be remembered by those residing in
the neighborhood, and will doubtless do good
service as an anecdote for some time to come
