An old locomotive en- gineer, seeing a young blood running on a smooth pavement with a fast car at railroad speed with nothing to hold him true, remarked, ve kept ‘the rails hot for forty years, but that business is too risky for me.” ‘Rea- sonable spead” is exceeded every day in Norwich and the people kmow it, but it would lkely cost a thousand dollars to get a legal definition of this phrase. QUICKER TRAVELING. Those who feel the need of more rapid transit will be pleased to learn that the time between points in east- ern Connecticut and Washingion, D. C., is to be shortened a half-hour. A change of time is to be made on June 6th, when the Colonial express will leave Boston at § a. m., an hour earlier than at present. The running time to New London will be reduced fifteen minutes with an additional stop at Kingston. The train will arrive at the Harlem station in New York, 135th street, at 118 p. m. instead of 2.37 p. m., and from there passengers can complete the journey to New York on joi= elevated. This gives the public early and fast train to New York t the regular rate of fare. The time of arrival in Washington will be 8.05 p. m., instead of 9.44 p. m. The ride to Washington thus is shortened from twelve hours and forty-four minutes to twelve hours and five minutes. The eaving time at Washington is to be changed from 7.30 3. m. to 9.45 a. m., and the time is cut from twelve hours and rifty minutes to twelve hours and ve minutes, an appreciable saving to through travelers. . his change will be appreciated by all Connectiout people who count time 15 money and slow coaches as relics the past.
