OF a bet on CIR mt and Seymour, GEORGE w. Ken

y u than they would have done had not their at
m,iion been mainly tn ned to the next wheeling

!yed the ride, which Is more than we can say of
W. w. mar who was wheeling him, who went right

I'm, me other bet, the one in which great pnblic
huiHrest was manifested was that between Thos

Reduction of RniIroad Fares.

There has been, of course, a reduction of the
railroad fare from points in this State to stations
in other States. MS the Railroad Company refuses
longer to collect the State tax from each traveller
but there is also general reduction of all fares
on the Delaware Roud, without regard to the
State tax which Is still collected between stations
In the State.
We give the following table. which shows the
present prices between Philadelphia and Will
mington and various points, and for purposes of
comparison, we also give the old prices. The
same table also shows the difference between the
price Of tickets from stations down the Road to
Wilmington and Philadelphia 1t will also give

that passenger can go to Philadelphia for the
same price that he can 20 to Wilmington, a
chance to revise their opinions somewhat. The
difference, we believe, is in all cases, from As to
