this the chairman Of the Republican State

A Funny New York Courtship.

A savings bank cashier OF New YORK city
is Low a happy husband. Only fe y months
ago he was the engaged OF a fascinating Wild
ow (his present wife), who is well kuo gn in
literary circles. and an attendant OF the
SOTosis reunions. During the engagement
an event occurred which made It necessary
for the widow 10 change the investment of
some OF her funds. Mutually, she sought the
advice OF her intended husband. lie has al
ways had a horror OF seeming To marry a
woman for money, and frankly said 10 her on
this occasion, that, as they were shortly to
be married and he had sufficient property for
both, she had better expend her funds In any
way that might please her. She disclaimed
any desire to do SO, and told him that the
money had been left her by her first hus-
band, and she did not care 10 expend IL fool
1shly. AT last happy thought occurred TO
The cashier, and he mentioned IL 10 the Wild
ow. AS the money came from her first hus-
band, why not eNpeDd ii In erecting a hand
some monument TO his memory? She eager
ly adopted the suggestion, and together they
Logan 10 plan how IL should be done. Toe
next day several marble workers were re-
quested 10 send in designs for a monument.
The cashier actually wrote the epitaph,
praising the virtues of the deceased, and ft
i low almost finished In a marble workers
shop on Thirty second street. Toe intention
was tohaVe the monument completed be-
fore the marriage, but unforeseen delays pre-
vented. The cashier has taken entire charge
Of the work, and doubtless the wife loves
him all the more for his disintsresteduess.
