queer Things About sleep-walkers.
From the Hartford courant.

From the Hartford Courant.
The mention of a sleep-wallSer standing
upon the street railway track the other
night and barely escaping being run down
has brought TO the minds of many people
incidents in this line that have come
under their observation, and it Is simply
astonishing how general is this singular
habit. One person mentions the case of a
member of the household who was found
wandering about on the housetop, all
unmindful of his danger, while the OBJ
server was at his wits ends to know how
to get him in before he could make mis-
step and fall TO the ground Usually the
eyes of the somnambuhst are wide open,
and now and then a story indicates that
the vision must be fairly good at times.
For instance, gentleman remembers
that when he was a young man an ac-
quantance was badly given TO the habit
and he would often go out into the yard
and wander about One night a number
of them lay in ambush for him just to
watch his operations. By and by the
door opened in a business-lke way, and
out came the young man. He went
straightway across the street into a lot
where there was a nut tree, and proceeded
to pick up nuts and put them into pile.
A few moments at his task, then he
started to the house. In spanning the
fence he made misstep and fell This
awakened him, and while he was in the
first act Of collecting his thoughts he saw
in the darkness the young men who were
watching him. Just at that time their
appearance so startled him that he fled
like deer. The circumstance was so inn
pressed upon his mind that he never af-
forwards INDUCED in the habit.
A gentleman ted an amusing incident
that happened in his early life He was
sure that he could nOt have been rnOrn
than five or six years old at the time
Tie often found himself at the far end
of the long, unfinished chamber where he
slept, and usually he could not awake
sufficiently to find his way to bed again
so one or the other of his parents would
hear him crying and come to his rescue.
Naturally, they got a little tired of the
bother and no one should be blamed for
what followed. AS stated, the chamber
was AN unfinished one. and in place of the
guardrai at the danger end of the stair
way a number of barrels had been placed.
When the nights somnambulistic tour
eliminated that left a lasting impression
on his mind. as well as his body, he was
near those barrels, and il seemed had
been struggling to get through them
when he must surely have been killed by
falling down the stairs. The noise
aroused his parents. and on this memora-
BILE occasion the father visited the cham
Der. and Just in time TO save the lad from
getting through. He was on his hands
and knees. pushing through and the op-
portunity for administering the usual pun
ishment of those DAYS could not have
been better arranged TO order Talk
about spankingsp said the relator "Why.
that must have been forty years and more
ago, but / can feel that sting as If it
