chester wants to be Port Of Entry.

A special from Chester, Pa, to the
Philadelphia Press Of to day says; "A
movement is now being quietly made to
have Chester constituted a port Of entry,
the same as Wilmington, with a collector
appointed by the President at a salary Of
$4,000. Elk Congressman William Ward
has visited Washington in reference TO
this change. During last year
$43S, 490 in duties, collected from three
industrial concerns alone, was paid into
the United States treasury. The Chester
Rolling Mills imported so, 900 tons of iron
ore, the Tidewater Steel and Iron Works
imported 40, 800 tons Of steel blooms, the
Chester Oil Company paid 500, 600 on til
plate, lead, nails and lumber. All these
importations were unloaded on Chester
docks and the duties collected by thu
Chester deputy collectors. The number
of vessels from foreign ports landing her,
last year was go, representing a tota
tonnage of 54,99S, and the number o
coastwise vessels was 1OG.

oAicer BurIeigh Threatens to Arrest One
of the mouIders.
The difficulty between the Mslleable
Iron Com pany and their former employees
shows no signs of settlement. The men
watch every train that arrives and seem
to be able in some myrterious way to tell
a moulder as soon as they see him. Four
men arrived in this city Saturday evening
having been hired by agents of the com
pany. Two of the men were from Tren-
ton, and the other two were German
emigrants from Castle Garden. The men
went to the clearinghouse, at No. 412
King street. The locked-out men waited
upon the non. union men and explained
to them the condition of affairs. The two
men who could not speak English
stated that they had been de-
ceived and would not work. While the
men were comforting together, Thomson,
the foreman, and a clerk of the iron
company came along and hurried the men
into the Clayton House.
The two Germans, who were rather
seedy.looking, were escorted afterwards
by the Messrs. Bailey, Thompson and
Carten TO the Western Hotel, Fourth and
Orange streets. Officer Burleigh is sta
toned at the foundry gate and Officer
Hanna stands guard on a neighboring
corner Officer Burleigh and James
Brophy, one of the union men, had some
pretty plain talk this morning.
Burleigh told the moulder that the
company had right to hire whom they
pleased and bring them to the shop il
whatever way they pleased.
"That is true, replied Brophy, "anC
we have a right to ask those men not t
work
IF you accost them while going vi
the street in crowd you viii be ar
rested, said the officer
u viii accost them in gentleman,
way whenever see them and no matte
who they are with, and viii run the risl
of arrest, answered Brophy.
Well said the officer, you shall b
arrested.
''We have had advice" replied tn
molder, "and know how far we can go.

"But suppose | do know about agricllt-
ure and can wrte?" Jack asked.
Even then" the editor said, 1--WE could
not find place for you"
Jacks supply of money was now nearly
exhausted, and he was low indeed in his
mind. Il shall take a laborer's place
rather than go home" he said to himself
twenty times a day; and As he was strong
and accustomed to work this would not
have been such hardship if he could have
left his ambition out of the account.
Old Mr.. Hartford knew very little of city
HE, but he had not passed all his years
without learning that the percentage of
those who found failure instead of success
in the struggle in New York was very
large, and that therefore the chaIces
against his boy were much greater tam
those in his favor. IF he gets the worst
of it," he continually said to himself ''he
will come home, and may be then it won't
seem so hard to help us here"
When church was over one SUNDAY
morning about this time the old nan
waited for Emma Rogers at the door and
approached her with some timidity when
she appeared To his invitation to 90
home to dinner with him she was obliged
to decline, but she volunteered to drive
part of the way with him and walk lack
She knew by intuition that he wantei to
say something about Jack.
Have you heard from Jack, Mr.. dar

YES, we had line saying that he had
found IA boarding house. Has he written

only to say that he would not writ till
he had found something to do"

Jack at home; he cares more for you han

girl, blushing prettily, but looking con

"Oh, ! haven't been looking on aithe

But | did not want him to st& at

so the old place is not good enougl for

"Mr, Hartford, it is not kind of y,u u

did not understand each other, lie ould

"do you suppose should have taken the
trouble to speak to you as have done2"
Harfords anger was at once appeased,
and he took her hand and would have put
his arm around her had she not moved
back step.
"Oh Emma" ne said, eff you would
only love me and be good to me, and let
me feel that was working for you as well
as myself, should go away much more
bravely than do. Won't you promise to
marry me when I have made a stake?"
Come and see after you have made the
stake" she said with a smile, as she Olsen
gagged her hand.
"That's the best you can do for me9" he
persisted
"You have no right to ask more at pres
mt" she said, and he was forced to be
content. They resumed their seats and
spent the evening in discussing the very
vague plans for the future which Jack
Hartford had formed.
BY hard work and many privations the
son had managed to prepare himself for
college and to get through the course. At
twenty-five he returned to the farm and
with the zeal of youth desired to reform its
management. lie might as well have tried
to move the high hills from their firm
foundations. Emma ROGERS was the dau-'h-
ter of the Nearbye doctor. who had Gicl a
few years before this story begins and left
his only child with no more valuable prop
erty than the little cottage in which he
had lived and lot of uncolected and un-
collectabe bills for his services She was
the teacher of the Nearbye school, and man
aged it with much tact and skill Her
clear, blue eyes would have made any face
pretty, but as all her features were straight
and regular, like those we are accus coined
to see in the ancient sculptures of Greece
she was a radiant beauty and would have
seemed out of place in her homely sur
roundings had the brilliancy of her beauty
not been tempered by great sobriety Of
speech and directneSs of manner.
Jack Hartford and Emma Rogers had
been companions since childhood, and as
he had done nothing to disguise his affec-
ton the relations of the two AS lover and
loved were well known about. Among
the young men in the Nearbye neighbor-
hood he was the only one fit by education
to consort with her, and he was therefore
permitted to pursue his suit without the
vexation of rivalry. He was "A strong,
good looking fellow, and with much less
of the rustic appearance than any of the
other farmers sons whereabouts. He had
made persistent love to Emma for two
years, but they had never become for
mally engaged. She had not declined to
marry him, and he had always feared to
insist on final decision.
| Early Sunday morning Jack announced
to his father that he was going away the
next morning to seek his fortune. The
old man sighed sadly when he heard what
his son had to say in eXtenuation of his
resolution to give up his home, but made
