''The Spirit Of the Times Shall Teacl
Me SDeed.o

The demand Of the public for faster train
service to the north met its first response when
the schedule Of the B. 4 o. R. R., on the 18th
of last month, reduced the running time be-
tween Washington and Philadelphia to three
hours and fifteen minutes. This stroke of en-
terprise on the part Of the B. 4 o. aroused the
the people to the fact that the traffic could no
longer be held as a monopoly by one line and
they forced to accept such train service as it
chose to give. The business men and resi-
dents OF this city are therefore being again
benefited by the competition which it was pre-
dicted would follow the entrance of the b. &
U. into Philadelphia. The number of trains
run daily between here and PHILADELPHIA is
now about double what it was four years ago,
before the Philadelphia Division of the b. 4
o. was built
The precision and ease with which the fast
schedule on the D. and o. has been maintained
has demonstrated to its management the entire
feasibility Of still further reducing the time
with absolute safety. They have decided,
therefore, to cut fifteen minutes from the pres
ent schedule, and, commencing December 9th.
will run their Limited Express trains between
Washington and Philadelphia III three hours
This speed is entirely compatible with prudent
management, being at the rate of about 46
miles per hour, rate easy to maintain with
the powerful engines of the B. and o. and over
delphia
The avowed policy of the B. 4 o. to give the
public all the benefits Of fast time and i'm
proved train facilities will be rigidly adhered
70, and no extra fare tribute will be levied upon
ITS patrons using these trains.
Inc high standard of the equipment will be
maintained and the finest Pullman Parlor Cars
ever constructed will be kept in service.
IL goes without saying that the American
pubic, always prompt to recognize and re-
ward enterprise and merit, will bestow upon
the new aaDiraut for "a %. !. Eh...I-I
patronage. " .''

A Hard.Headed Mule.

COMPLAINT OF CRUELTY WHICH AGENT KEY rs
INVESTIGATING.
Agent Key, Of the Humane society, is invcs-
tigating the killing Of a mule in East Washing
ton Wednesday afternoon. The animal was
killed on a vacant lot in square between 9Th
and 9th and and b streets northeast Mr..
Key yesterday received q communication
from one of the residents of that locality, COM
planning Of the manner in which the killing
was done. The complaint states that the mule
was led to the vacant lot at lilo o'clock One
man held the animal by a halter. while the
other fired five shots at it, each shot taking
effect in the animals head. The animal did
not even fall, but was tied to the fence and
permitted to remain there in agony until 2:25
o'clock, when the man returned and fred three
more shots at the animal, which caused its
death. The shooting. the complaint states.
was done in view of thirty or forty windows
The complaint suggests that the person who did
the shooting be prosecuted. Agent Key will
probably swear out warrant in the case.

The Prohibition Vote.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
In your paper of Tuesday evening, the 4th
inst, under the head Of political Notes." you
state that the decline of the prohibition vote.
az compared with that of 1884, is ''strikingly"
shown by the New York Independent and give
that journals figures, by which it would appear
that in several important states there has been
large falling off. Since you have kindly
given the vote by states, it is deemed not alto
gether out of place to invite a comparison of
the independents figures with those published
yesterday by you, and comparison of the
latter with the returns for 1884, when it will be
found that the most striking" feature of the
independents exhibit, is a most striking dis
regard for the truth. In three of the states
named the alleged decline is more than
double the vote of those states in 1884 and lust
how such a decline" could be figured out
passes my comprehension. The truth is that
the seven states named show, in the aggregate,
a gain of more than 1900, or nearly As per
cent, and in three of them the gain exceeds 100
per cent over the vote OF 1884 With the In
dependents facilities for obtaining information
such statements Cor mis-statements) can
scarcely be charged to ignorance. 1t is a fact
worthy Of note that the same journals most
active in misrepresenting the prohibition party
during the campaign are the ones now labor
ing most assiduously to rob the party of the
fruits Of its labors by classifying the result Be-
lieving that no honest journalist will decline to
right wrong when pointed out, remain,
