Chesapeake 4 Ohio Railway Notes.

A general change of schedule will take
place On the Chesapeake and Ohio railway
on the 18th of next month, by which the
time between Cincinnati and Washington
and Richmond will be reduced. The
change will not affect materially the local
schedules on the Eastern end of the line
All the trains on the line will then be fnr-
nished with dining cars. The cars of these
trains, sleepers and all, will be one color, a
bright yellow.
The business of the Chesapeake and Ohio
for April shows considerable Improvement.
There are three places on the Greenbrier
district Of the Chesapeake and Ohio Rail
road where lady operators are required
to attend to the switches. At Rockland,
one lever moves both switches of the
crossover and it is operated without any
effort. AT Wolf Greek one lever throws
two switches, two detector bars and two
locks; this lever is rather stiff on account
of not being used very frequently, but the
operator has no trouble in manipulating it
At Lowell the levers are not loaded at all
heavily and they work very easily. When
these machines are put in properly and kept
cleaned and well oiled, ladies have no
difficulty whatever in handling them very
SucceSSfully.

This circus besides having excellent ac-
commodations for the general audience,
sells reserved seats i'll Which one can be as
comfortable us at the Opera House. The
parade is made at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning, and our county friends and their
