US. GOVERNMENT
GETS SETBACK IN

Justice Ilough Sustains Excep-
tons to the Seizure by
Customs Officials.

The Government received a serious
setback to-day In the effort made by
the Customs authorities to W. twenty
five packages OF Panama hats for
feitcd for differentiation. Judge Hough,
sitting In the Federal District Court,
sustined the exceptions taken In the in
terest o the importing firm of NJ. Cas-
tillo & co. Of No. 1870 Pearl street. He
held that the consignment seized while
under general orders" had not been
Introduced into the m of the
United States.
This ruling. II sustained by the higher
court, practically quashes similar liti-
CATION instituted by the Government,
against Cabailero & Blanco OF No. l.
Broadway; Isaac Brandon OF No. Il
Battery place and Albert Victor, doinf
business as Frederick Probst & Co., q
No, Sc Beaver street.
At the time OF the seizure OF IN,
shipments OF Panama hats by Specia
Treasury Agent Whestly it was reporte,
that the CONGRATULATIONS aggregate
100000. but the forfeiture suits did no
bear out the report, The consignment

duty OF s32, 29l. was released under bond

Judge Hough In his decision says /

II is therefore held that the mere ex,

The Crown for the Faithful.

The virtue of fidelity is not condi.
toned by great opportunities and re
sponsibilities. 1t has nothing to do
with splendor of circumstances. It
needs no broad arena. no crowd OF
spectators. "He that is faithful in
that which is least is faithful also In
much" The humblest task is to be
done as unto God. Our gift, our tai
ent, may be insignificant, but 1t is to
be used, not buried, What the world
calls success is often the shipwreck
of the soul The dominion Of Gods
world is the blessing of those who
are faithful in a very little." faith
full unto death" The crown is not
for success, not for genius. not for
position, not for greatness, but for
faithfulness. Lifes work and warfare
are to test and train our fidelity.
