THE 2:23 TBoT.
The first race was the 1923 trot, which
was fairly interesting, but too much
one-sided, Hermetc proving an easy
winner, in three consecutive heats.
FIRST HEAT-The horses got away
without much trouble in scoring, with
Nix in the lead. Ollie B. was closely
following, and when Nix broke at the
Quarter, passed up to the front, Nix
dropping back TO third place, and Her
metic bringing up the rear. Nix squirt
ed aud passed Frantic, but again broke
and dropped back. Frantic was work
ing well, but could not close the gap
which interviewed between the leader,
and came in about q length behind, In
2:271S. Paris mutuals paid SLIGO.
SECOND HEAr-Ollis B. was a slighl
favorite in the pools. The horses scored
half a dozen times before they finally
got away, aud in this manner con
sumed considerable time. The heat
was exciting. Ollie b. was in the lead
at the word "go." Nix broke badly
and dropped to the rear. At the first
quarter Frantic and Hermetic, who had
been trotting steadily, spurted and
passed Ollie b. in the order mentioned
At the half this position was an
changed. Ollie B. then spurted and
passed Frantic, but behaved badly, and
dropped back. She recovered, however,
and finished the heat in second place,
Hermetic coming under the wire fifteen
feet IN the lead. Frantic finished third

BONNIE B. WINS THE PACE.
Considerable interest was manifested
in the final heat OF the 2:24 pace, which

CURE FOR soMNAMeuLlsM.


After All Other Remedies Had Failed the
Lady Was Sewn Up In Bag.
A young lady at school became q
somnambulist. She arose from bed
and walked in her sleep. / was taken
into consultation and suggested various
expedients, such as sedatives, sleeping
draughts and network to put around
the bed at night All, however, had
been tried in this instance, and all in
vain. then thought for little, and
hit upon the following plan:
directed her night-dress to be sewed
up at the foot SO that it formed large
bag, and then ] had the sleeves length.
ened SO much that each sleeve, after
going round the body, reached the
front, where 1t met the other sleeve
and was securely fastened to it.
The whole dress was loose, but the
long sleeves prevented the hands from
being used to get rid of the dress; while
from the end being sewed up, the feet
could not be used in progression. AT
the same time the dress freely permit
ted the wearer to roll about from side
to side in her slumber.
Night came, and our charge retired
to bed in her new-fangled night-dress,
with which she was amused. The
usual hour for the night walk came.
Her attendants were strictly enjoinei
not to stir. She raised herself up Cd
usual in the sitting posture. then stood
upright and commenced to walk. The
second step was q trip, for the foot be-
hind held the bottom of the bag in
which she stood. She stumbled, fell
forward, and awolxe, and was put back
into bed, where she soon fell asleep.
And now came a curious change in
the phases of the afliction. She would
still rise from bed each night, but
made no further attempt to walk as
before. She would stand erect, and.
keeping the knees perfectly rigid,
spring straight upward from the floor,
and thus dance about the room. This
she would continue until thoroughly
fatigued and then retire quickly to
bed to sleep. I am glad to add, the
case ended in a perfect cure.-Pearson's
Weekly.

A RECENT cyclone in Iowa followed

Deliberation on this fact has convinced

they can do little harm, by having rail-
roads convenient for them to travel on.
MAKING q mountain stream run over

Pacific railroad is shortly to commence

EVERY railway should have its sur
geon. He is necessity as much rs it's

intendent. The professions OF both
law and medicine are now necessity

duct Of q railway. The railway sur
geon came, pdfhaps, last, but he has
come to stay, and no railway of any
importance can now dispense with this
officer.

CHICAGO, March SENATOR A. c.
Beckwith, of Wyoming, Adiutant Cen
eral Kabis, OF that State and A. l.. New,
Chairman of the State Democratic Com
mittee, left this evening for Washing
ton To attend the inauguration. Col.
John Atkins, OF Denver, Colo, and Col.
Goodall, Worlds Fair Commissioners, &C
companied the party.
The circumstances surrounding Sen
ator Beckwith's selection for the honor
which has Just been conferred upon him
are remarkable. He is the first Demo
cratic Senator FROM Wyoming and did
not seek the Office, but on the contrary
was an ardent supporter Of the candi-
dacy Of A. I. New, who by the way is a
cousin OF John c. New, present Consul
General at London.
After fight of forty days, however,
the Legislature, which was composed
OF 21 Democrats, % Republicans, and
five Populists, was unable 10 succeed iE
agreeing upon anyone OF the men who
went before 1t. An adjournment
sine NSe took place, and
the appointment fell TO the
hands Of the Governor. who had
Debu eIeCLtu Ou a 4uoiOh DOAHNNANN'
and Populist ticket. The Governor
thought IL wise to go outside OF the
regular candidates and chose Mr.. Beck
with. Mr.. Beckwith, while thorough
Democrat, is a free silver man, like
every other man of the Western Strtes.
This what be had TO say tonight on
the question:
Ninety per cent. of the people Of Wy
oming are in favor Of free and umlimit-
ed coinage OF silver, although we are
not yet silver producing center; and
by the way, Illinois, Indiana and neigh
boring States as much interested In the
silver matter as we are. AT least
they ought to be and would be II they

vinced that am in error. But l am not

10 recognize neither faction in his first
