The time table of the Monon Route appears this week corrected up to date. It will be seen that the new accommodation train, which passes this place at 8:46 a. m., going towards Chicago, stops at all stations in the county, either regularly or upon being flagged. The flag stations being Marlboro and Surrey. The train reaches Chicago at 11:45 a. m. and returning leaves there at 4:50 p. m., thus enabling persons to spend five hours in the city and yet reach home in good season. The train will be a great convenience to the people along the line and we hope that it may receive sufficient patronage to justify the managers of the company in continuing it as it now runs.
