Business Cha nge.

Mr.. Z. c. Vaudenburgh, SO long rep
resentative of the North Western rail
way company's interests at this place
and who was recently transferred to
the Denis0n station, has returned to
Audubon and purchased the interest
of Willard Ii. Jones in the Upper
Broadway hardware store. AT the di-
rection of his company Mr.. Fanden-
burgh removed from Audubon with
reluctance, and thus improves the first
opportunity to return. He has been a
resident of Audubon since its earliest
years, and having cultivated extensive
and agreeable acquaintanceS, and know
ing the many good qualities of the town
ne prefers to launch in an independent
line of business rather than continue in
a capacity where he is subject to the
beck and call of others. The new firm
Messrs. McKarahan & Vandenburgh
is a strong one and will command a
large patronage, as both members pos
sess good business ability and are
genial gentlemen. The invoice is COM
pleted and they are now ready to re-
ceive customers. Mr. Jones is not yet
determined as to future movements.
He has been in Audubon's business
circle since its organization. However,
should he determine to move elsewhere,
we have reasonable assurance that
like all discreet business men who move
away he viii return.

the books Wednesday night it was
learned that more than six hundred en-
tries had been made. AS will be in
ton of the County's crops and indus

large, as about $500 other than that re-
ceived at the gate that day. Thursday
