One nmmer moonlight night I waa by the waves. 1 would rather be near them on moonlight nighta than at any other time, especially when broken Clauds give the sty and the waters variety. I never go to the hotels, u ' r away from them as I can. topplUi usually at some fisherman's On this occasion I - bad Ditched a tent on the beach and In habited It alone. I was lying undei my canopy, the flaps thrown aside so that from my bed blankets only I cnuld look out on the ocean. There was the aky. light clouds slowly drift- lnir across the face of the moon, the line of the horizon dividing the llghtet from the darker hemisphere. The ocean plane met the path of moonlight broad ening toward me from afar, the waves lazily rolling In and bursting on the shore. I have wondered since If the music of the waters put me to sleep and I awakened or whether ! did not sleep. At any rate, my attention was ar rested by something white, at least lighter than the sand, down near the verge. I watched it There was an occasional fluttering about It, like a woman's skirts gently moved by a breeze. It appeared to be about the height of a human figure, though really fa my perception, of It there was no such thing as size, and was gently swaying like a very young tree- shaken by tbr wind. Presently It moved. Then I was con scious1 that It was coming toward me. C had no superstitious fear. I was sim ply curious. As the thing approached It came' gradually out of nebula into the form' of a woman. There was a certain grace of movement, a lightness- which, mingled with a slight rising and falling, was confusing. Had the figure appeared on. the water surface t should bare- thought my eyes were- transflgurtng-.asall that was rising and. falling on the- waves. It was only when It came neaii that I distinguished the outline of a girl's figure not a summer visitor, one of plainer mold,, doubtless a fisher las sie. She stopped a few yards from me, turned unci looked out on the ocean. Then, turning again without appearing to notice or care who was in the tent, she askad: "Is that a boat ut there?" J "What are you doing ont here at this time of night?' Eto yon know what time It Is?" "No." I drew my wstch from my vest pocket I slept lhi my clothes. "It's half past 1." Is It 3" She manifested no Interest at the hour. , She stood looking out at sea, apparently watching for another light at the boat There It Is. Heavens, how they bend to the work IT 1 raised myself.' so. my elbows and strained my eyes to discern If I could what the glrl saw. Surely there was no boat out where she was look- tog. The dark face- of the ocean was ; expressionless except where the moon light trailed over It "I see no boat"" I said. '"It's In OQtrough- of the sea now." "There is but a. slight trough. Even ff a boat were lost to sight between. the waves It would reappear In n"few moments. She stood peering out on the ocean. A cloud lion ted over the moon. She- said with a moun, a note of despair. rather. It seemed to me: "(.Hi. how black!" The cloud was denser tloiu any that had obscured the moon before. The Inst words I heard spoken by the girl were. They're.-comlng." and she begiiu to move toward! the ocean, fading away lu tue shadow of the cloud. When it passed 1 looked for her, but she was nowhere to be seen. 1 lay thluklug. wotiileriiiB, for awhile, then, lulled bv the waves, Ml asleep. hen I asroke the sun was rlslnc out of the ocean, while the waves were plashing laaguidly. The first thing 1 thought ot was the girl of the night before. I drifted between many opin ions. Tosslbly I may have dreamed it all. But never before had I dreamed about ona-a stranger to mo-whose face and flg"re I could remember whn hers 1 remembered dlsttnctlv. Wna she not some girl who had been de mented: by misfortune? I went to breakfast ai a flshermnn'. cnbln. It was a rude place. th only decoration being a lithograph of th lrgin Mary, but I got there nlentv of sea food. The Usherman was prepar ing to go out in his boat while his wife waned on me. I wna full of mv ,irom or whatever It was. ami related It The man stopped his nrenarnrlnn. and llsteued with a look of horror, making the sign of the cross, while his wire turned and covered her er aritt. her hntids. I looked nt them wonderlngly It was plain that I had struck some blight In their lives. Should I probe It by questions or spare them? Whnt hnd I to gain by forcing a recital that would give them Infinite pain? If there was any connection between them and my apparition it needed no strong imagination to renlac. ir Lying In my tent during that day 1 wove the story. I saw a ship ont on the bar. the waves beating furlomlr against It. The shore was lined wlti, People. IVescntly a boat was lowered ' and a crey from the wn-ck made an atte:-.:nt f.-r their lives.
