HODCFSSWILL NOTsTAKE
PRESIDENCY OF VILLIGE

John b. Hodges, who has served as
president of the village of Hubbell for
the past four years and who was NOM
mated to succeed himself at the eau
Gus this week, declares emphatically
that he does not want the office and
if elected will tender his resignation
Immediately. Mr.. Hodges stated his
position about three weeks ago, but
despite this fact his friends nominat-
ed him at the caucus without his con-
sent. +. X. Gillet, who was a recep-
tive candidate for the office, withdrew
when the name of Mr.. Hodges was adj
vanced and subsequently was nomin-
ated for the Office of trustee. The
latest announcement by Mr. Hodges
makes the situation a complicated one,
and it is likely that another caucus
will be held soon to place a new ticket
i'm the field Mr.. Gillet probably will
be persuaded To head the new ticket.
Mr. Hodges has made a very efficient
president and as he had no opposition,
would have no trouble securing the Of
flee again. However he stated TO a
representative of The News this morn
ing that his decision is final and un-
less residents of the village act ac-
cordingly. IL is likely that Hubbell will
be without a president after the COM
ing election. In that event an appoint
ment would have to be made by the
council, and there is little doubt that

AFTER The TEMPEST.

school in Long Island village. All
the young fellows for miles around
were mad about her. but the school
ma'am was proud. aud none OF the

chance.

was the best looking chap IN the
town, and Jim probably loved the
schoolma'am more than any of her
other SWANS. but he never had the
pluck TO declare himself. He felt too
small and mean before the beauty and
learning of the schoolma'am. But one
day. the schoolma'am being away on
visit in New York state, Jim asked
advice OF the editor. The editor said:
"Take the bull by the horns and in.
sert an announcement of your forth.
coming marriage in my society col
umn. 1t will cost you only 80 cents"
So Jim inserted an announcement 10
the effect that the schoolma'am and
he would be married the next month
and would spend their honeymoon at
Atlantic City.
Well. short time after this an.
nouncement appeared the schoolma'am
came back home. Jim heard on all
sides how furious she was. For sew
eral days he kept away from her
Then oae afternoon as she was com
Ing home from school he ran plump
into her In the lane.
She let him know mt once what she
thought of him and his outrageous
conduct she stormed and raved. and
her pretty eyes flashed fire. Jim stood

"Well, If you don't like it can have
the announcement contradicted."
