The girl was looking with tear dim
med eyes across the river to where the
lights Of West Point could be seen on
top Of the Palisades
The mans glance followed hers. Nei-
Their spoke for moment, and then,
with an effort which he hoped was not
visible to the girl, the man said:

Thanks. I fancy my dancing days

The girl stepped in through one Of
the open windows, and the man lit a
cigar.
Perhaps it was the moonlight on the
water, perhaps 1t was the old waltz
tune which foated out Of the windows
Of the house, perhaps the old memo
ries were brought up 80 keenly by the
story he had told the girl on the piaz-
"a. Whatever the cause, the effect was
to carry the mind Of the man back to
another time and another scene.
The Hudson became another river,
the Palisades on the farther side be-
came low, wooded shore. The breeze
which came from the river seemed
heavy with scent Of magnolia. The
man who paced slowly up and down
the piazza was young again.
At his side there seemed to walk q
woman as beautiful and as young az
the girl who had just left him. But the
beauty of this woman was Of the
south, and her dress was Of the fash
ion Of forty years ago. The measure
of fOrgetfulness which time had grant
ed the man slipped away, and the old
keen heartache woke once again to
poignant life.
And the man walking with memOriei
and ghosts in the pure. calm moonligh,
thanked God that the heartache wal
alive once more.

BURNS ACQUITTED.
Menomonie Civil War Veteran De-
clared not Guilty of Murder.

Menomonie, Wis, March 20.-Eli
Burns, the civil war veteran held on
the charge of the murder of AL Rose
Turner, a farmer. has been acquitted.
The jury after beins closeted four
hours, returned verdict Of not guilty.
Burns was defended by Attorney J. B.
Mathews, who in his argument, made
a plea for self defense. The shooting
of Turner occurred on the evening of
February 90. The testimony during
the trial brought cut the fact that Tur-
ner had called at the Burns home and
inquired for Minnie Rice. He was told
that she was not there and Burns or
dered Turner from the premises. An
alteration followed, Burns following
Turner as he left the house. 1t was
after Turner had got into the sleigh
that the shot was fred, which struck
him in the forehead, causing instant
death. Burns, it appears, thought Tur-
ner was about to shoot him.
