PHONE 115 Juku Hurn. tuxknb driver, was nod nliitf behind the meeting wheel of lih vehicle on one of the prinripiil street! of New York. It vus nearly mldnfcht and a line ulcet watt falling about Liliu But John Hums wun fur more Inter ested In catching u imp thiiu in lookluj. upon the marvelous electric dlapluy Hut soon he heard bis cab door open and shut and a man's voice nay: "Wake up!" John Burns turned and looked through the gins behind htm upon the features of a very old man. The onlj part of his apparel that was not cov ered by his cloak was his hat. which struck the eabmau as something re unirkable. It was what is called be! crown, with a lurse curled brim nnc covered with a short fur. The chnng In? electric display lighted the wear er's face, showing a couuteuai.ee not only old. but there was un evil twlnklt lu the eye. ".Northwnrd." mild the passenger. "On what street?" "The Bloomlugdale road." "The what?" "That oue." The speaker pointed to Broadway. Cubby put on the powei nnd. turning nt the corner, entered that part of Hrondwuy lying north ol Forty -second street nnd now the live liest part of upper New York. Aftei reaching a less crowded portion of the thoroughfare he asked the old gen tleninn behind htm Just where he should take him and received order to turn into One Hundred nnd Fortieth street. From that time the passenei kept pointing out the way til) he pull ed up before an old fashioned bouse situated among modem edllices. The "fare" opened the cub door nnd, sup porting himself with a stuff, tottered up the walk to the front door. From this point John Burns in tell ing the story appears confused. He doesn't remember whether the house was lighted or In darkness. lie can't my that he saw the old man go into the house. Ills Impression Is that there were no lights in the windows, unci If his fare went inside he must have gone right in through the closed door. The only thing John Rums re members distinctly Is tiiat tiie wind blew uslde the man's clonk, which reached to his nnkles and exposed a pair of legs no bigger than those of a skeleton. However this may be. the cabman, who. It has been snM. was In need of r"Ht. soon began to doze In his seal iie was awakened by a blaze of light coming through the doorway of the house before which he was stopping and saw distinctly two persons there. The ono wnjj bis passenger, the other n lady. Tho hitler was dressed very much In the present mode of high waist, panniers and clinging skirts. The man who was Ixtwing himself out nourished bis bell crown hat, bowed very low and scraped excessively wllh his feet. After a number of such en per lugs, which made John Burns wonder, ho came down tho wnlk, turn ing to throw n kiss to tho lady who still stood iu the doorway. Then the illumination seemed to go out nil of n sudden, and the passenger stepped into tho cab, closed the door and said: "Down the Bloomingdale road." Having learned that the Blooming dale road meant Broadway, cnbby nsk ed no questions, but motored south ward. He received no order to leave the thoroughfare or to go to any pur tleulur place, so he drove on past the junction at Broad way nnd Thirty third street nnd Madison and Union s(iiares and thence straight south ward through what is uow lower Broadway. The life of the city grew less nnd less as ho proceeded till It became the midnight of a great city. It livened up as they passed the City Hall pnrk, adjoining which most of the newspaper olhces linger, but died out as they npproacbed Trinity church, ot the head of Wall street Burns was directed to turn Into Hector street, bordering the churchyard on tho south. "Stop: said the stranger. John Bums drew up to the curb. "I nm under deep obligations to yon." said t he passenger lu a tone t hat sounded to John Burns very pompous. "You have taken me to cnll ou my wife at her residence, and I am now going to pay a visit to a gentleman whom 1 was reluctantly obliged to punish for some annoying remarks he made about me. (iood evening.' With a nourish of the bell crown hat. In lieu of a fore, the strange mnn seemed to (lit up the side of n stone wall, through nn Iron railing, nnd dis appeared beneath a monument located hut a few feet beyond the rati. Whether John Burns awoke from a dream or was so astonished that he didn't know whether he was n sloop or awnke ho falls to make It appear As to what he did the next day to clear up the matter he Is explicit He motored up to the dwelling where he had taken the stranger nnd asked of me passing who lived there. "Pou t know." wnt the reply. "That's the Juuiel house. She lived In the early part of tho last century and mar ried Aaron Burr in his old age." "Who was Aaron Burr" "Former vice president of the t'nlted States. He killed his political rtvnl In a duel."
