RICHIE'S WIFE
BY ETTIE ROGERS.
?
Richie Leo hail been a " gcoa fe'iow "
from his bu-fh, in fcchool and co. ige,
and B?jo ?tl and business lifo afterward.
He was thoroughly honest, and he was
neither a drunkard nor a spendthrift?
and ho attained a salary of t\ro thousand
a year?still he was always in debt ?nd
alwayn harassed with dan?.
Richie Lee was thirty-one wr.iil his
father died, devising him a tine luildinj?
and the control of the prosperous
grocery trade that was established in
the rather pretentions basement store.
"I ofvei brw a more convenient
housw," he said to his wife, as they were
about to move to the new habitation.
" Iliy dear, our parlor, dinin/z-rocm,
iitchco, scullery and closets wj]i sll be
nn th? ftppimt) tlour with ft funnlv M5
trance on the cross street. 'Iho sforo
will seem entirely separate, ana ws can
miko a line prolit by letting tlie third
floor and attics. And then you and our
bovs will have a charming space of
back yard lull of flowers."
This lair, gentle-eyed wife smiled an
aniiable acquiescence to all his plans,
and his two rosy boys were jubilantly
noisy in tLteir delight.
Two months passed.
It was then that Richie Lee discovered
that bis 6tock was not quite
adequate to the demands of his customers,
and that his private expenses exceeded
his profits.
He never once imagined that his inattention
to business had brought about
this dubious state of affairs.
"I wish I could raise five hundred
dollars to buy a stock of holiday goods,"
he said to his wife one night. " I could
make a double profit, and clear myself
of some of these harassing debtors."
" It would be better to save than to
borrow, Richie," replied his pretty
spouse.
" How, pet?" he laughed, as if she
bad uttered an amusing jest instead of
K bit of wisdom.
' "You will be angry if I tell you."
" Not I, Susie. Tell me, if you can,
bow I can save that amount in five
weeks."
"Well," began the little woman,
nervously, "give up your parties, billiards,
the theater, smoke five cigars
less a day, discharge the man in the
Bfeore, who, I am sure, is not honest,
and sell your goods yourself. I will
dispense with my servant and do my
own work, beside helping you when you
require assistance."
?* - ? ? l-'iii _ ?-i 19 1
" wnai a wise liiue Kin Biie iu, uu ;
returned, playiully. " I will think of
your advice, Susie."
But it was long after before he thought
of it seriously.
In the meantime he had borrowed the
five hundred dollars, and several more
hundreds beside, bought largely on
credit, and lived just as extravagantly
as before.
As an inevitable consequence, before
the end of three years n crowd of clamorous
creditors pounoed upon his comfortable
property, and everything was
sold to satisfy their just demands.
"Never mind, Susie," this unfortunate
" good fellow" said to his wife,
*' I can go back to my old employment,
and two thousand dollars a year will i
give us a reasonably fair living." j
"It will be difficult, I fear, for you
to get suoh a situation and salary these
times," answered the more wise and reflective
Susie.
" Oh, well, I have a jolly good lot of
friend?, and they will lot me hav6 something
now and then until I get a position.
" You will find, Richie, that these
jolly good friends who helped you spend
your money, will treat you as Timon, of
Athens, was treated."
Richard Lee did not answer. He began
to vaguely fear the future, and to
wish that in his prosperous days he had
heeded the oounsel of this little woman.
Two months went by.
"Ho came in one evening more
weary and harassed than he had ever
been in his life before.
" This is rough, Susie," he exclaimed,
hotly. (It is astonishing how easily
these <4 good fellows " lose their courj
age, patience and temper.) "I have
advertised and answered advertisements
until I am tired of it. I have made personal
applications at hundreds of stores,
until I am disgusted with myself and
the whole thing."
ti C7 ?:n ?
i.uur uiu euiyiujcr wut give juu i*
position as salesman at twelve dollars a
week, you say. Take it, Bichie, until
you are euje of something better."
411 would sooner beg!" he answered,
angrily.
His wife flushed, and said no more.
" To-morrow is rert day," he went on,
after a pause; " snd I'd like to know
where I will get the money."
"Perhaps you can borrow it," answered
Susie, suspiciously demure.
^ He looked at hor a moment and then
laughed bitterly.
"Ism another Timon, just as you
Sredicted," he Baid, "By the way,
on't you think you could dispense with
your diamond set for a while ? We
must pawn them, you know."
" I would never pawn anything," answered
Susie, impatiently, not at all
pleased with the manner in which her
"good fellow" was dealing with his
troubles ; " and I have already sold the
diamonds."
" The douce you have !" muttered
her lord.
* "The boys needed overcoats; and,
. Bichie, have von never wondered where |
y. the rent and food came from these two
months back ? "
t \ "I have had something else to think
^of," was the un racious response.
Susie watched him with deep anxiety
." in her pretty blue eyes.
Poor Susie I She had a secret in her
tender heart that it w&3 very hard to
withhold from the husband whom she
. devotedly loved in spite of his grievous
. faults.
Bichie had never suspected that this
wise little woman had a handsome sum
laid away that he and his bright bojs
might not know actual privation. He
never guessed that she had a large class
of pupils in music, nor that the exquisite
embroidery wrought night" after
night by her tireless fingers was work !
for which she was handsomely paid.
/ " Bichie will never be prudent until!
? ?' he has had a hard lesson," she rightly i

all the money, which he would be sure j
to do jif he knew about it?the poor, J
dear, 4 good fellow.'"
One Kleety, biting night, Richie came
home Bhivering with cold, and with an
odd, abashed look on his handsome
face. *"
" Why, my dear, where is your overooat
?" inquired Susie.
"Well, lovo, yon won't be hard on
me if I tell you ?" he answered,coaxingly,
caressing her pretty brown head.
44 You see I met an old friend, and I
had to bo civil to him. Of course I
could not ask him home in our reduoed
state of circumstances, so I got a little
money on my coat and took him to a cosy
dinner."
"Private room in hotel?oysters,
turtle soup," observed Susie, in dismay.
44How much did it coatvou?"
44 Never mind the coaCjpussy. It will
be all right when I get something to do."
Susie felt her angry tears coming
fast, but she kept Ihern back, and said
nStfeing.

?.-will nevdr be sensible," she thought;
"poor, poor, 4 good' Richie."
* ? ijalf a year went by and still no eirgovment
of his own choosing could
iobavd Lee fiDd.
" I cannot live this way any longer,
? Susie," he declared one day to his patient
wife. "Look at these rooms!?
only fit for a pauper."
" I think they are very nice," replied
thecbeerfnl little woman, glancing at
tbo bright carpet, the exquisite and
Bpirited cbromos on the pretty tinted
? walls, and tbe large stand of blooming
flowers at the window. Susie did not
. know that her own brave and comely
ftic* would have made even a darksome
cell a place of brightness.
"And ( ur food is simply execrable,"
' went on the dissatisfied man, remember~
ing the luxurious table to whioh he had
always been accustomed.
"We have a wholesome plenty," returned
Susie, losing for an instant her
divine sweetnew of temper. -
Instantly the "good fellow" became Fj
amiable, for daring this trying time he
had begun to oomprehend that this gentle
creature had a stronger will and better
brain than his own, and that it C
might be good for him to bend come- al
times to her wishee. so
"There, pnBsy," he said, lovingly, tb
" I did not mean to anger yon; but tb
thiB trouble is mighty rough, you
know." ar
"Richard, do you love me?" asked it
Susie, abruptly. fl<
He opened his big, handsome eyes and cl
glared at her in amazement. tli
41 Love you, Susie ? I would die for ; di
you, my darling?gladly, willingly, if j
by that you and our boys might be ; fl(
happy. Susie, when I married you, I 1 fcj,
had but one purpose for our future. I

He bowed his head upon Susie's er
knees, and she could feel the passiouate j w
quivering of bis frame and his hot tears j
on l<er hands. | ^
After a moment he raised his head I
and continued: j
" You may blame me for much, Susie; | ftr
but believe me, my greatest grief is for ^
you and the boys. Wuat you think
of my fatal fondness for the luxuries j c
and refinements of life wna taught me .,
by my father, whom I believed to be |
exceedingly wealthy, although he required
mo to support myself when my
college cays were over. I knew noth- | *.
ing of a grocer's business?why should I '
not have failed f I ought to have been I JT
satisfied with the rent of the place, and j
retained my position and salary." !
" Yes," assented SuBie. j fll
"Susie, I believe if you would think | 01
about it, you oould suggest some means I ?r
by which we might get out of tbis ;
trouble." jo{
Think about it! What a blind, |
stupid, "good fellow" he was, to be |
sure ! Had she not thought about it in ! J5.1

" If I should suggest something not j
agreeable to your desire, would you do I
as I wished you?for love of our boys j
and me. Richard ?" j fri
"I will, Susie," he answered, earn- j bi
eetly. "What is it I shall do?" i an
" First, then, go at once to your old j fo
employer and accept hiB offer. Steady or

And then, Richie (you won't, be hurt, j m
dear), deny yourself a luxury until you ;
enjoy it without debt. I will help you, i of
my husband, heart, hand and soul." lii
Fur a moment he sat silent. Then he ?
took her in his arms and kissed her th

and cheek, and then, without a word, 8n
left the house. m
He kept his promise faithfully, and an I ni
monthB went on, began to wonder if toil j ye
were not Bweoter than idleness, after | in
all. ac
" How much have we to spend for a
Christmas dinner, pussy?" he asked bl
Susie on Christmas eve. I?
" Plenty, and quite er>ough besides
for gifts for the boys and their father
too," returned Susie, with an odd little 1 &
smile. j n*
"My dear wife," he said, as he sat i 2*
down to that Christmas dinner, " never |
hllow anybody to call me a ' good fellow' ; aE
again. The term is synonymous with a j ?a
sort of life I should never care to live ; b.r
agfiin. Even should I have as large a j
fortune as I once expected to receive ! f?:
from my father, I should be just what |
you have taught me to be, Susie?a | b
busy, saving, prudent man."
"And here is a slight acknowledge- P1
meat, of my appreciation of your efforts," ?a
said Susie. tu
And standing there behind with her
arms about his neck, Susie laid the gift
before him?a check for more than the ?n
amount of four thousand dollars, pay- "c
able to his own astonished self. '?
" You never received all this for those Kr
diamonds, Susie ?" ^
" No, nor tho fourth part of it. Those 18
arc my savings for a few years." j cr'
" Then why did you dispose of your ?1'
ornaments, dear?" a
" They were too grand and fine for a de
music teacher and needle woman, ec]
Richie." av
He understood then what those daily ar
absences, and long night hours of BP
ceaseless needle-work had meant, and If
he was glad of heart that he had made rn
himself more worthy of that brave and ds
devoted wife.
" And hero is a present from your be
employer, dear." eE
It was a brief note. le:
"Mr. Richard Lee," it ran, "is ten- aE
dered a week of^rest, and for his com- flt
! mendable services and conduct will be, th
with the beginning of the new year,
| given his old position and old salary." P(
" I don't deserve so many blessings," j
murmured the man brokenly, agitated j Wi'
to tears. I ?
I Co arose and clasped Susie in his
arma.
" My wife is the gift whom God gave
me, and the most precious possession I
have." H
That Christmas day was but the first gi
of a life-long season of happiness and ye
prosperity. A year later he learned in
that his father did possess a large for- pe
tune, and that, knowing Riohie's pro- lei
clivitiea for a spendthrift life, had with- de
held it from him by will until he should Sc
learn by bitter experience the lesson : te>
that Snsie so lovingly and effectively j an
taught him. Richard Lee's unexpected j lot
weaith was not detrimental to his j co
moral welfare. He had reaped the j
whirlwind once, and had no intention j he
of sowing the wind again. And Susie j

May, 1762, a weaver of Nottingham ,
brought home a loin of veal and told his j th
wife to cook it for dinner. As he did not j 11

aside untouched. In the evening he j I ^

The Senate Election Inquiry. t
The following is the full text, ub
imended and passed by the Senate, of *
Jenator Blaine's resolution, providing
or an inquiry as to whether any citizen
pas deprived of his constitutional rights ,
luring the recent election : i
Resolved, That a committee, to consist of t
line Senators, be appointed by the chair to in- <
|uire and report to tbo 8enate whether at the
eoent election the constitutional rights of citi- i
ens were violated in any of the St&teB of the ]
inion; whether the right of suffrage of citi- a
ens of the United States or any olass of such \
itizens was denied or abridgod by the action |
f the election officers of any State or of the
Jnited States, in refusing to reoeive their '
otes, in falling to connt them, or in receiving
nd counting fraudulent ballots in pursuance
f a conspiracy to make the lawful votes of ,
uch citizens of non-efTeot; and whether such
itizens were prevented from exercising j
be elective franchise or forced to use it i
gainst their wishes by violence, or threats,
r hostile demonstrations of armed men, or S
ther organizations, or by any unlawful means jr
practice. The committee "shall also inquire j
whether any citizen of any State has been disaissod
or threatened with dismissal from em- g
iloyment, or deprivation of anyrigbt or privi?ge
by reason of his vote or intention to vote at E
be recent eleotion, or haa been otherwise in- {
erfered w th; and to inquire whether in *
tie year 1878 money was raised by assessment ^
r otherwise unon federal office holders, or r
mployees, for eleotion purposes, and under g
'hat .circumstances and by what means ; and E
' so, what amouDt was ho raised and bow tbe C
ome was expended ; and further, whether J
noh assessments were or were not' in viola- e
Ion of law ; and shall further inquire into the
ction and conduct of United StateB
upervisors of elections in the several States, e
nd as to the number of marshals, deputy- ?
larshals and others employed to take part in
be conduct of tho said election ; in whac State i
r [city appointed, the amount of money paid .
r promised to be paid to them, and how or by {
rhom, and under what law authorized.

Iruc.ted to inquire and reuort whether it is ?rithin
the competency of Congress to provide
y additional legislation for the more perfoct
Bcurity of the right of suffrage to citizons of

Resolved, That in prosecuting these inquiries, *

While D. H. Patterson, of Colt's staion,
Ohio, was going home from Oleveind,
an attempt was made to rob him.
!he roads were very mnddy, in consonance
of whioh he drove slowly,
faen in a secluded spot, a man suddeny
appeared by his buggy, in the darkess,
and aBked : " CJan I ride with
on ?" Mr. Patterson did not like the
one in whioh this was uttered, but an*
wered : "Yes, sir; if you behave yourelf."
At this the fellow said with an
ath: " What do you say ?" Then Mr.
'atterson began to realize what might
ie coming, and at once put the whip on
lis horse. A* he did this the would-berarderer
fired, the ball lodging in Mr.
'atterson's person ; but he did not stop
o ascertain its locality till he reaohed
ome, when he found that the ball had
penetrated several letters in his coat
iocket and had lodged in a small book
?hich he had there. Mr. Patterson I
ow shows the bnll, and is convinced
bat the book saved his life. 1
