slept last year In st. Bartholomew's
hospital, intends to sleep this year at
the Cock and Bottle In Little Britain"
Some further particulars OF this profess
sional somnolist are TO be found In the
Spectator for oct l OF that year. IL
appears that Hart was every year
seized with periodical At of sleeping
which began on Aug. 8 and ended on
the 11th. Its various stages are thus
described:
ION the lst OF that month he grew
dull; on the 2d, appeared drowsy; on
the Sd, fell a-yawning on the 4th. be
gan to nod; on the 9Th. dropped asleep;
on the 9th. was heard to snore; on the

Sth, recovered his former posture: on
the 9th, fell a-stretching; on the 10th.

The annual tryout of Division

took place in this city Friday even
ing. Four districts were repre-
sented as follows In school Dist.
No. 4, Miss Edith Wells, her selec-
ton being, "The First Settlers
Story" Waverly N. Miller, of Dist.
No. 10, had for his selection Lin
coins Gettysburg Speech. Dist.
No. IA was represented by Miss
Pattie Carratt who rendered, "The
Curfew shall not Ring tonight," "
while Misc Alice Dunn represented
Dist. No. Is and for her selection
chose 1.-THE Death OF Minnehaha."
The Judges having been pre-
viously chosen were w. S. Walker
Rev. J. l.. Moore and Mrs. Mike
Fitzpatrick were there with the
exception of the latter and Mr.. O.,
S. Davis was selected to fill the
vacancy.
The first honors were given TO
Miss Edith Wells with a pc, cent
age of SO and Waverly n. Miller
received second with a marking OF
S18 and the other two received S5a
each.
So far as the contest hetw the
three is considered it war very
close and very good, but Miss
Wells was from the first entirely
in 3 class separate and distinct
from the others. She has been
gifted by nature with a most ex-
cellent voice and the selection was
chosen to fit her voice and temper
ament.
Prof. Spoerry will continue to
perfect the few weak points in her
delivery and we predict here and
now that our school through the
efforts of Miss Wells, will bring
the Silver Loving Cup back with
her to Bonners Ferry.
Waverly Miller will also be drill
ed by Prof Spoerry and will go to
Standpoint to be ready in the event
