proach.
Ha was a shining light in Hocioty.
AT Roggsville looked up to and
honored him.
Bn! a chiinga came, a fearful, Tiro
fill change.
In an evil hour Boggs aoeepted
tho noiniuulion for constable of his
native villiage.
Alas ! poor Boggs !
Lit tie did ho understand the de
ceit and treachery of .the wickod
world.
His eyes were soon opened, how
1 ever.
In loss than a week after 110 was
nominated Iho opposiliofj had fully
established the following damaging
charges against his character:
1. That ha was a free lover and an
in lid el.
2. That lie hail fed his neighbor’s
hens on poisonod corn.
3. That ho had broken his moth
er-in-law’s jaw with an iron boots
jack. #
4. That lie on one occasion gave a
whole wagon load of green water*
melons to an orphan assylhm.
5. That ho had sorvod a term in
the State Prison for horse stealing.
G. That ho had set. fire to his next
neighbor's burn; merely because he
refused to lend him a hoe.
7, That because he 110 had found
button oil' liis shirt, he tied his wife
to 111.1 bed-post and mashed m tnreo
of her litis with the stove poker.
8. That his cliii f Sunday amuse
ments were cook-lighting and card
playing.
!). That ho 8 till his vote every
year r.'gnluriy to the highest bidder.
10. That ho wasn't fit for tho place
anyhow.
These chargos, though without
tho slightest foundati in, wero religi
ously believe I by a majority of the
voters of B tggsvitlo.
And B eggs’ political goo.ie \y(‘s
coked.
Hi* chances for being elected wero
not worth three cent's on tho dollar.
When 15 iggs passed along tho
street, bis neighbors looked at him
with suspicion, and crossed over on
the other"Hide'.
Boggs was a miserable being.
Tiie day of h>wn-meeting canjo at
last and 15 ,g ;s’ opponent scooped in
the ocmstabieship hy a two-thirds
vote.
The anti Boggs party swept f heir
. candidate into office on the tidal
I iv. wool ; opn 11 rit y, and poor Boggs
[ 'is* 1 ft pels;had high Alp On tho
| spikc-aioiYnlefl picket-feTico of dt)*
[ sp-ir.
Boggs will never run for office
again, not even for President.
Ho says that it is too great a strain
on character.
II lie can regain the esteem of his
friends by grubbing along in the old
! wav.heintenilK to do it,* and leave
office six king to people of cast iron
reputation.
Boggs is just coming to his senses.
An iron firm at, Pbceuixville, Pa.,
has taken a contract for building
' three miles of bridges in the repub
| lie of Cbi.i.
