DIED FOR LOVE.
And now Her Grave is Always Cor
ered With Flowers.
A few days ago passers-by in
Broadway, looking through the
high fence that surrounds Trinity
Churchyard, saw a slender, black
gowned girl kneeling by the grave
of Charlott Temple. Her head was
, bowed in her hands, and she seem
ed utterly lost to her surroundings.
After a while she arose with a
very pale face, walked swiftly
through the gates and disappeared
, in the crowd. She was only one of
many devotees at the shrine of the
poor girl who died for love. No
body ever visits Trinity Church
yard without pausing for a few
moments before the big brown slab
that bears only the name, “Char
lotte Temple.”
Oh, yes! said the gray-haired
old man whose duty it is t) see
that the ancient tombs are kept
inorder, It is the most popular
grave in the yard. I have been
here going on 17 years now, and
have been very few days in good
weather when the grave has not
had a visitor. Several times I have
seen women come here and stand
in the cold sleet and snow looking
at the tomb. Somehow they al
ways look as if they were in trou
ble.
Seven or eight years ago I be
gan to put {lotted Howers, gerani
ums and the like, on the grave,
and I have kept it up ever since.
It is mainly to mark the grave, so
that visitors can find it. It is the
only grave in the yard that has
flowers on it. Otherwise the peo
ple would bother me to dearh.
When they ask where the grave of
Charlotte Temple is now, I simply
tell them that it is over on the
West side with some potted flow
ers on it. That saves me a deal of
trouble.
Several of the gravestones ’ are
crumbling badly and will have to
je repaired if th* descendants of
the dead want to perpetuate their
memory. See here is the oldest
in the place.
Then the old man swept away a
ayer of dust from a crumbling
gray stone and showed the date 16-
31. We have aeverarthat date al
most as far back, aaid he, but none
of them is so popular as that of
Charlotte Temple.
Then the ancient aittendant
bucked his broom under hie arm,
licked up his wheelbarrow and
trundled away among the graves.

thing About his life. An
Enterprising man.
Mr. W, T. McWilliams died at
• his home on Second Avenue Fri
, day afternoon at 4o’clock. At his
bedsides was his wife and children,
and the ®nd come as peacefully and
. quietly as a child falling asleep.
( Mr. McWilliams has been seri
ously ill for some months, and
though all that medical skill and
tender hands could do was done for
him, the family were fully cogniz
ant that deatn was sure and cer
tain. An extremely difficult sur
gical operation was performed on
him last May, and since that time
he has been confined to his room (
though able to ait up much of
the time.
For the past week he had began
to grow steadily weaker, and the
end was expected at anytime,
though it was no less a shock to
his friends and relatives,
Since last year Mr. McWilliams
had been the leading fator in t’ e
Rome Furniture Factory, and by
his energy and business qualities
he brought it an era of prosperity,
hitherto unknown in its history.
It is today one of the most stable
enterprises of the city and furnish
es employment for a large number
of men.
Besides the furniture factory he
was identified with other enter
prises. that were conducive to the
Upbuilding of the city he lived in.
By economy and thrift he had
amassed a comfortable fortune.
He is a native Georgian, though
h-is boyhood and considerable of
his early life wae spent in Ala
bama. He was born in Greenville
in 1842, and lived there until
three years of age.
In 1845 his father moved to We
tumpka, Ala., where Mr. McWil
liams grew to manhood. He was
engaged in business thsre both be
fore aud after the war. Wheu the
South seceded he at once inlisted
and served valliantly through the
war.
He moved to Rome in 1873 and
went into the wholesale dry goods
business with Mr. J. L. Camp,
aud Capt. R. G. Clark. In 1875

; AN OVERSIGHT.
- The Purchaser of a House Forgot
to Buy the Front Door.
“It is not often thataman neg
| lecta to buy the front entrance
when he buys himself a home.”
said ex-Judge Dittenhcefer last
• Wednesday to a little group of le
gal friends who were retailing pro
fessional ane- o es. “but that is
precisely what a friend of mine
did— and he paid dearly for that
front door when he did acquire it.
“I was in my office one after
noon, when my friend B. came in,
and after the exchange of the com
j pliments of the day he remarked:
“ ‘Judge, I’ve bought me a new
home out on West One Hundred
and Twenty-third street. ”
“ ‘That’s good,’ I replied. ‘Did
you get a bargain?’
“ ‘Oh. pretty fair! At least I
thought I had ; but I’m not so sure
now. I don’t get in the frontdoor.’
“ ‘What do you mean?’
“ ‘The man I bought from refus
es to give me the key to the front
1 door, and I can get in and out on
ly by the back way.’
“ ‘What reason does he give for
acting in that manner?’
“ ‘He says I didn’t buy the front
of the house, and he is not going
to let me in that way.’
“ ‘Have you got your deed all
right,’ I asked.
“ ‘Oh, yes! That’s all right.”
“ Well, you bring it down to
morrow and let me look it over.
“The next morning B. appeared
with the deed, which, to a casual
glance, appeared to he in correct
form, But on examining the de
sciption of the property by metes
and bonds. I discovered a curious
omission. The-point of beginning
was at the junction of the street
line and the westerly boundary
line, running thenee to the north
boundary, to the east boundary
and then to the street and slopped
there. Hence, the frontage, or
casement, not being described, was
not conveyed.
“And thus, while B. was the le
gal owner of rest of house, the
frontage was technically the prop
erty of the other fellow, and he
had a right to carry the latch key,
smoke his pipe on the front stoop
and put on all the airs of master of
the house, while B. could only
sneak in through the back door.
“Whether the omission was in
tentional or not w -.-i impossible to
find out. But it v. as quickly made
plain that the technical owner of
the front stoop meant to profit by
the accident, if accident it was.
On interviewing him he calmly re
marked that the frontage was his
and he meant to claim it. £*nig I
threatened with :i suit, and the as
surance that a Court of equity
would compel the correction of the
deed, he repiled, ‘Fire away!’
“Finally, rather than to have
the property tied up in the Courts
possibly for two years, I advised B,
to compromise the mat'er if he
could, and by the payment of SSOO
he acquired i u loubted right to ti e
latch key of his own front door.’

A gentleman in Piscataquis
County who likes a joke, althongh
he has no purpose of making light
of serious things, tells a story of
an old character in his neighbor
hood who mixed up eccentricity,
religious fervor and profanity as er
a most singular fashion.
One fall when the snow was too
thin for snow-shoeing, the “char
acter” got very uneasy, as he was
anxious to go hunting. He fussed
about for several days, and at last
fell to praying fervently. “Snow,
Lord ; send snow ! Send five dol
lars’ worth,” was the burden of
bis supplication.
That very night the storm struck
a regular blizzard, and before it
was over the snow lay three feet
deep everywhere. As it was as
• light as feathers, it was no better
. for snow-shoeing than when there
i was none, and the disgusted hunt
r er looked out of doors ruefully.
1 “If I had known the blamec
• stuff was so thundering cheap,”

Nothing in This World
Is so cheap as a newspaper, whether it be
measured by the cost of its production or by its
value to the consumer. We are talking about
an American, metropolitan, daily paper of the
first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. IV sso
cheap and so good you can’t afford in this day
of progress to be without it. There are other
papers possibly as good, but none better, and
none just like it. It prints all the real news of
the world—the news you care sor —every day,
and prints it in the shortest possible space. You ...
can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a day's
work too. It is an independent paper and gives
all political news free from the taint of party
bias. In a word—it’s a complete, condensed,
clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the .
largest morning circulation in Chicago or the
west—l2s,ooo to 140,000 a day.
Prof. J. T. Hatfield of the Northwestern
University says: *‘THE CHICAGO RECORD
comes as near being the ideal daily jour
nal as we are for some time likely to find
on these mortal shores. ”
