transact here. Norfolk people who
are in the habit of going down to Mad

change differently, some saying that
the additional time in Madison is de-
sirable, others that it brings the two
Madison trains too close together and
m. might as well go at IL a. m. The
change especially Inconvenience those
who come in at the Junction at noon
and seek to go south A Battle Creek
