THE OLD STORY.

They stood beside ne fence that ran
Between their fathers farms.
He leaned upon the topmost rail
His strong and brawny arms.
Her shoulder just came up to them.
A slender maid was she,
Yet that she ruled that stalwart youth
Was very plain to see.
All, earnestly he spoke to her.
The burning words he said
She seemed to hear and heed, and yet
She lifted not her head,
For on some daisies in her hand
Her eyes were fixed, and these
She -plucked to pieces one by one
And cast upon the breeze.
AS the last leaf she pluclzed and flung
It on the wind, she turned
Her eyes to his and saw the love
Within their depths that burned.
And then at last she seemed to cast
All doubt, all fear aside.
Her love she did confess and gave
Her troth to be his bride.
Over the fence he lightly leaped
And clasped her to his breast,
And to her cheek, that brightly burned.
His glowing lips he pressed.
Then, as the sunsets rosy glow
Frightened the peaceful land,
With happy hearts toward her home
They wandered hand in hand
Her father in the doorway stood
As they came up the walk,
Indifferent to all around,
Absorbed in sweetest talk.
He knew what suit his neighbours son
Would make to him and smiled.
For ever had he wished that he
Should wed his darling child.
And when the young man, stammering,
asked
II he might wed the maid
The old man in her lovers hand
His daughter gently laid.
The kindly words he uttered filled
With Joy the lovers heart,
And to each other pledged two lives
That only death could part.

BARNES COMPROMISES.
Mcgowan Pays Him a Small
Sum for Mrs. Barnes At
fections : Rumors Of
Reconciliation.
speeta1 to the yerseu cxsp Nsacs.

TRENTON, Jan. Is, 1S97.-Another chap
| ter was added yesterday to the notorious
Magowan-Barnes controversy, when Mr..
J.. Albert Barnes compromised his big
damage suit against ex-Mayor Frank A.
Mcgowan for alternating the affections of
Mrs. Barnes.
The settlement is the outcome of a
three days conference between Mr.. Ma
| sowan and Mr.. Barnes. with their respec-
tive counsel, which resulted in Mcgowan
paying to Barnes a cash consideration
for the latters wounded feelings.
Last evening 1t was rumored On the
street that Mr.. and Mrs. Mcgowan had
again entered the state of connubiality
and that the marital troubles of Mr.. and
Mrs. Barnes were at an end, and they,
too. would once more live together as
man and wife.
Toaaseertain the correctness of the ru-
mors a reporter called upon ex-Judge
Chauncey H. Beasley, who was counse
for Mr.. Barnes. In reply to a query,
Mr.. Beasley said:
"The suit of Mr.. Barnes against Mr..
Mcgowan has been settled to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned. Mcgowan
gave Barnes a cash consideration and no.
thing further is to be done in the mat
ter"
To the reporters questions as to
whether Barnes and his wife had become
reconciled. he said:
That report is absolutely false. Mr.;
with the suit which he has Instituted IN
this State for divorce from his wife.
This suit has not been pushed on ac-
has just been settled
Later the reporter called on Edwin Rob-
ert Walker, counsel for Mcgowan. Mr..
give any particulars of the settlement,
but stated that 1t was quite satisfactory.
The amount of damages named by Nh.
understood that the compromise was
made for a comparatively small sum.
FORMER Mayor Mcgowan could not be
found In Trenton last evening. The ru-
NOR that he will again take up his resi-
dence with his former wife is not ooked
upon with much favor. Mcgowan, it is
said, started this rumor himself.
The Magowan-Barnes story is still quite
fresh in the minds of T~rentonians.
