sIon's RepOTt-Judge Bughess Views
The Governor Yesterday received letter
from Iieutenant-GOvernOrJ j. Hoge 1yleri
of Pulaski. stating that az tar as he could
learn the people of his section heartily. ap-
prove the action OF the debt commission.
Nothing has been heard by his Exceuency
from the Olcott committee SINCE they letI'
and il is hardly 20 be expected that much
will be heard until all the details OF the
action of the conference have been com
municated to the London committee:
However, as stated in the DIsPATcH or
Friday. no doubt "a entertained by tho
Olcott men that the bondbOlders Will ratl-
fy the agreement. That was considered by
Mr. Olcott and Captain Garnder, who signed
for the committee, foregone CONCLUSION.
Delegate W. d. Dabney will write the re-
port Of the Virginia commission 10 the Le-
gislature.
JUDGE HUGHEs's VIEWS.
Judge Robert w. Hughes was in the
city Yesterday, and in speaking OF the
agreement reached by the debt conference
said that in his opinion the basis OF settle
1nent was much more favorable than that
provided for IN the Kiddleberger bill.
Continuing, Judge Hughes said that about
1885 or 1856 he was asked by prominent
gentleman Of this city, who was gong 70
London 10 write out his views OF the deot
settlement question. lie gave that gentti,e-
man a private letter to be shown to the
bondholders, in winch he stated that the
people Of Virginia would never accept a
decision in one coupon case az establish
ing a principal, but would insist upon
suit in every case. and therefore 1t was
preposterous to think Of gaining anything
by coupon litigation.
ADVISED THRM TO SETTLE.
He therefore advised the bondholders
10 settle under the Riddleberger act.
"Why." added Judge Hughes, the
coupon matter IS like indlcting whole
nation"
Ia conclusion Judge Hughes said he
thought settlement under the Olcott
agreement and the subsequent final dispo-
sition of the debt problem would be
grand thing for Virginia.

A Model Husband will Overcome a
Pussy Wife.

Editor of the Columbia Herald.
1 CHANGED to meet one day Model
Husband, as he proved to be in the
future. He was at school; nice
looking boy. And there was girl
there he admired very much. Glass
that their love grew stronger and
confidence more implicit. 1t was al
most June; days and months have
rolled away on the wheels of time.
And a serpent has entered the gar
den so lately trOdden by "our two
friends" "Whisporing tongues can
poison truth" And so they have
ceased to speak to each other.
But little they knew the sequel to
this episode of school life. "deaVen
from all hides the book of fate and we
cannot see what is before u.s." School
closed and ere week had passed
away; the boy wrote to the girl for an
explanation OF the -estraneement; but
not even a word Of reply was ever
written.
If we did not follow this boy any
farther, this willingness to ask for an
explanation would show a noble
heart that would make him Model
Husband; but we will follow this boy
still farther. He in year from this
married a nice young lady. And he
was everything in my mind to her
Model Husband is to his wife. She
never had any trouble, but to him
she would go; and he would always
try to show her the bright side of the
picture. He was generous hearted;
but not too much so; Kind to her III
every respect. Never Tumbled when
she wanted to go to Sc ,her mother or
said Lets not go to church to-day"
but always went and took great
delight in pleasing her. 1t seemed
he never thought that she put
on" when she was sick; or went
into business transactions without
saying Myrtle, what do you think
about this?" Nor never went to the
saloon at evening, as he came from
his business, aud drank to his hearts
content, till the last nickel in his
pocket was gone; and come home at
night and his footsteps on the door
make his wife shudder. He did not
make vows at the altar he did not try
to fulfill; but did everything for his
wife's comfort he could; did not
''IaZy around" and see her do the
work to earn their bread; but put his
own shoulder to the wheel. Never
come In at night with harsh word
to speak as soon as his wife looked at
him; but always greeted her with
broad smile; as much as to say II
have done my part to-day and you
have done yours.
This is Model Husband in the
true sense of the word. But some
husbands would be model husbands
but for the wife they have; it takes
Uery VERY good hearted husband to
endure a cold stern hearted woman,
that is forever fussing and trying to
boss him; but this model husband
will overcome. MINNIE.

Model Husbands Make Model Wives

Editor Columbia Herald.
Entering the arena against our
better-half is serious business.
They can pay us back when they
take up the theme of "a Model
Wife"
If it were not the virtues, and not
the number, that constitute model
husband, the editor need not have
limited us as to space. They are
scarce commodity. We are surprised
to know of the little thought they
give this valuable accomplishment
When they shall have educated them
selves In this, the millennium will
have come.
Woman is a peculiar being; intui-
ton ia a part OF her nature. She may
not know a Latin I.oun from Greek
verb; she may not understand the
Tariff or the Silver bill; she may
have never heard of the MayflOwer
that came over from the Mother
Country" bringing the Pilgrim faith
ers, the brave Capt. Standish, his fair
sweet Rose, and Priscilla the Puritan
maiden, She may be ignorant of
many things, but she reads her hus-
band most accurately. Love is the
capstone of her life. "LOVe hides a
multitude of sins" Nay, nay! 1t
only makes her keenly alive TO every
one of them. She hides them in her
heart that the world may see them
not.
A model husband will purify his
heart, and make it fit temple for the
| indwelling of his wife. In a mans
! household wife is slave, but in
his heart she is Queen.
A model husbands wife never
bankrupts him. He cOnfides in her,
keeps her informed as to his condi-
ton financially. If in an evil hour
he is led into temptation, stakes and
| losses all, where should he go but to
| his wife, with n confession as deep as
his contritiOn? 1t is the man who is
husband only in name that ignores
his wife's counsel, simply because she
| help him in a disaster.
A model husbands wife is not in
| sympathy with "WOman's Suffrage"
| She has no desire to lecture from city
to city, She does not want to rule in
the household; she safely trusts in
her husband,
A model husband does not sit ON
the street corners and discuss woman.
He throws the mantel of charity over
her faults. He helps to brighten the
home for "wee wivie" by cheerful
words of commentator. He is brave,
tender and true, patient with her
faults, gently but friendly helping
her to overcome them. He Is q man
az God planned he should be.

Wayside Gatherings.

The prime minister of death has tOlled
the bell in the tower of another life, and
the solemn sound strikes knell to our
last departing hope as we see the mol
ten clods pile up above the smiling face
of dear Annie; the light of life flashed
low to CLEAN along the river of hope no
more and she softly whispered to the
world her last farewell-for she with US
will ningle never more, She passed
away while life to her seemed to wear
its sunniest smiles; she was a devout
christian, a model in the church and to
society. All who knew her intimately
will love her memory and lament their
loss There should be stronger word
than sadness to express all that we feel
we will miss when we meet amid scenes
she used to love in days gone by. Nov,
1890, she was married to A. j. Fly, and
March the 7th 1891, she was called TO her
eternal home-Heaven. Besides host
of relatives and friends, she leaves a
noble and true hearted husband to
mourn her loss. How my heart goes out
in loving sympathy to him in this hour
of deepest sorrow, for to him the skies
will not seem so bright as they have in
days gone by, nor flowers bloom, nor
music sound, any more. But we must
first mourn and feel before we can know
and think; the deeper we go into the
depths below, the higher shall we as
send into the nights above. The path Of
life lneanders through q bright and
beautiful world, where the fragrant

Must Treat his Wife with Pride and
Honor.

Editor of the COLUMBIA HERALD:
Allow me to enlist a letter on the
subject of a "MOdeI Husband" L
think q Model Husband can in no
way contribute 50 much to the happi-
ness of home and a cOntiding wife,
than always act deVOut with pride
and honor, expressing feelings of pro-
found affection and veneratiOn for
her. A Model Husband should strive
to live so as to leave q name, spoken
Of as a perfect model, and one of de-
vine truth, that leads to the brightest
happiness, with memory sacred while
he lives, letting the image of great
model be mirrOred upon back retiec-
ton of such life, so that it may be-
come a perpetual inspiration even
when the flowers bloom above his
sleeping dust, for others to emulate.
4 Model Husband should let his
virtues and attainments make room
in society, drawing around him con
fidence, and respect, of all that Is
worthy, and good, that will cause
others to measure his own life by
your model; though we should re-
member those models whose MEM

or by a single leap. but rose by sue
cessive single degrees each which was
wrought out by sweating brow and
aching muscle. A Model Husband Is
one we should speak of as one whose
name was heard and reverenced in
every home, whose image was en-
shrine6 within every heart, possessing
a life filled with grandeur and great
ness, striving to lead judicious life,
worthy the Imitation of all with in-
tegrity and honesty that may become
prOverbial, so pure in life, worthy of
trusts great and small. A Model
Asband should never visit the
bathrooms, card tables, theaters, or
use any Intoxicating drinks. A Model
Husband of genius and goodness is
always sure to dwell with men and
nature. Aud they are men of firm, de
cided principles, of fair open conduct,
of strict honesty, with noble I'M
bending regard to truth and duty.

the characters whom all model men
