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."
From the Jnmel house John Burns
! drove to Trinity church nnd. entering
; the churchyard, went to the momitiivnt
