CHAPTER VII.

Jonesville was in mourning. Broad
ways departed uncle had inspired not
much affection; he had not been one
to are to-; but for many years, to the
workers in the factory, he had been a
sort Of business deity-the semi-provi-
dental head of the great enterprise
through which they gained their liveli-
hood.
The folk Of Jonesville had neither
loved him nor revered him; he had
been a sort of elemental necessity to
their peace Of mind; they had, so to
speak, leaned with q feeling Of secur
ity upon his stubbornness, knowing he
would never sell out to the gum trust;
II he did not sell out to the gum trust
the factory would operate; II the fac
tory kept running Jonesville would
continue to eat, drink, and. in its
crude, u~ndevolped way, be merry. Now
that he was dead, a feeling Of uncer-
tainty spread a mild panic through the
little town.
The Judge was waiting for the two
men In the hotel corridor. His worry
over what the new owner OF the fac
tory might decide to do about the per
fectly we'll known trust plans was
quite as keen as anyone's, but his dig
nifty forbade that he should make dis
play Of 1t.
1t was something Of a relief to him
when Broadway hurried to him from
the hotel Office and held out his hand,
although the boys appearance was a
shock to him. He remembered him as
Higgins mother had described him
and as the dapper. boyish youth who
had aroused the wonder Of the town
with patent-leather shoes and new
dance steps. This pale, extremely
urban man, young still, naturally, with

meant to stay in Jonesville till tomor-

of warning.

that If Broadway really came back to

him to, some changes should be made
in the hotel.

NEW CUSTOMS SYSTEM.

A Government publication in Wednesdays
I1DENDE announced that from the 1st Of
April 4 new system of bookkeeping will be
introduced at the Custom House; a similar
announcement from Collector of Customs
Cartensen has also beeu made.
On learning of the reform we made en-
quiries OF Toldcontrolieur Bey and ascer-
tanned that the changes were necessitated
by the new law, and for the better adniuis-
tratlon of this important branch of the pub
lie service. 1t should be stated, however, that
while the new system will ensure order and
strict compliance with the prescribed rules
1t will III no way hamper or Inconvenience
business people or others having to do with
the Custom House; on the contrary, the new
arrangement is expected to be an improve
ment by facilitating access to aud inter-
course with the department and replacing
the Old and IN some respects rather loose
method by one more effective and thorough.
Like I'll changes aiming at proper control,
the system cells into use many new ideas for
the carrying out IF which different forms
and quite a set of office books are required.
The forms, plainly prepared, are of various
sizes, printed on tinted paper, each having
q distinguishing colonr. There are some 20
altogether, each in Danish and English, and
intended for al purposes, entering and clear
ing Of vessels, clearance Of merchandise (also
for further repor), for shipping Of goods,
depositing in and shipment from BONDED
warehouse, transhippins from ship to ship
and from S. S. Cos warehouses, aud for
passengers luggage. To facilitate the pub
lie . large amount Of these blanks has been
imported 10y the Custom House, which viii
be supplied in blocks of 80, cheap and with
out profit, Should any one wish to see the
forms We have a set at our Office, and those
who may want to know more about them
may apply to the Controller, who will be
glad to give all Information.
There need be 40 doubt that the sys-
tenn will work well and give satisfaction, for
as we have said, the new arrangement has
been devised IN the interest of all con-
cerned.-N. IhoD@ Ijdende, March 8lSt.
