The complaining lodgers left, and in two or three davs twoVtlieP'V.licti were put into the vacant bed. Bullard made short work of them ; one night let thorn out. The landlord sought un interview with Bullard, and remon strated, Bullnrd ..toutly assorted that ho did not snore had never, been known to snore. Tho landlord found men to take tho beds, but again BuK lurd-cleaned.them out in a single night. Growing desperate, the landlord again went to Bollard.

The fourth morning after th ship had changed her course, tho cricket, which knew what) she was about, set up her bhrillest noto.
