England's Curse.

From the Milan Seeolo.
Betting has become the curse of England
The Neapolitan passion for the lottery is
nothing compared with the English horse
racing fever, TO which sovereigns, lords,
members of parliament, workmen, ladies,
old men and children succumb. 1t is
criminal frenzy.

THE WINTER SCHEDULE
For Maine Central is Highly Satisfac
tory to This City.

The people of this vicinity are GER
tainly delighted with the recently is
sued winter schedule of passenger
train service of the Maine Central
Railroad. The trains running through
Waterville are to be continued, prac-
tically unchanged, through the winter
months with the exception of a few
which will be named. The Knicker-
booker Express running through here
from Bar Harbor to Portland will he
the new time card, Oct g. 1t will con-
tirue to run from Portland to New
York, however, until Oct. 2S
The most important changes TO be
noted are concerning trains No. 2. liz,
127 and No. 20, East bound via Lewis
ton. No. 2, the evening train which has
for many years left this station short
ly before or after 10 p. NJ, will leave
about an hour later instead of being
changed to an earlier time as would
naturally be expected on the winter
change.
Train 127 which arrives at this sta
ton at 1926 at the present time, will
be continued through the winter, con-
trary to past custom.
Train 30, the Bar Harbor Express
which has hitherto been summer
train, will also be at the service of the
public. 1t will leave Waterville at
I.20 instead of 1.30 P NJ as at pres
cnt.
The morning train for Portland, No.
81 will leave according 10 its regular
winter time, 9.15 and the usual changes
have been made on the other trains,
the afternoon trains leaving later. as q
general thing and the morning trains
earlier.
The most complete passenger ser
vice which tie Maine Central Railroad
has ever yet offered will be appreciat-
cd this winter as a result of the con-
stantly increasing patronage of past
years.
