Ihe editors or Dakota, Montana, Iowa,
Minnesota and of the remainder of the north
west are offered such a chance to visit New
Orleans, the Worlds exposition, and witness
the great annual Mardi Gras as will never
| occur again in life time. All the roads of
the northwest tender to the editors the cour-
tesies OF their roads to Chicago, Washington
and st. Louis and the round trip will cost
only $50 for railroad fare.

once to the general passenger agents of the
different roads, the letters should be written
so as to reach the general offices not later
than February 2, SO that passes can be re-
turned.

either the Chicago * Northwestern or Mil
waukee & st. Paul. should start on or before
the evening of Monday, February 9, so as to
leave Chicago the evening Of the 10th, and be
10 New Orleans the morning of the 18th at 8
a. m. 1t is suggested that those intending
to start from Chicago Tuesday evening, the

Palmer house at 3 O'Clock in the afternoon,
TO talk over further arrangements.

Messing the ceremonies with world renowned
New Orleans Marii GraS. On the evening
of the 18th those wishing 10 attend the ex-
ereises connected with the dedication OF the
Washington monument will start on
the return 10 be at Washington city, Satur-
day, February 81. and from thence home,
making n two weeks trip. The tickets viii
be good for forty days, so that all who wish
NAV remain longer at New Orleans or re-
main in Washington to be present at the In
auguration OF President Cleveland will have
the opportunity OF so doing. Those who have
visited New Orleans recommend starting
! from Chicago in the evening, which will
bring parties into New Orleans in the morn
| ing. On account OF the heavy trains that
| are now run IL Is almost impossible to reach
eating stations on time, and for this reason
it Is well for all 10 take we'll flied lunch bas-
kets, besides this is not only necessary to
/ comfort but Is a wise stroke OF economy, no
less economical, hlGgh probably more fash
/ iouable, because enforced.
On arriving Ia New Orleans Il Is not well
/ TO be in too great rush in securing lodg-
/ ings. Keep cool and maintain serene dis
position. The hospitable people of New
/ Orleans have thoroughly cauvassed their city
/ aud arranged FOR entertainment at reason
/ able rates, and unless YOU have friends in
/ the city With whom you intend to stop. it is
/ Just as well % wait ultil YOU can visit ths.
/ headquarters of the committee on entertain
meut. Each person must regulate his own
I expenses. On account OF the crowded con-
/ ditiou OF the roads south OF Chicago. Wash
| inEtun aud 81 Louis, the southern roads
! found il impossible 70 extend those courte-
/ sizes which they would otherwise gladly have
I rendered 70 the editors Of the north, but The
person who would begrudge fifteen or twenty
| dollars railroad fare 10 visit New Orleans and
/ the great worlds exposition would be IN
/ grateful indeed.
| Those wishing TO take In Washington
I should apply at once to C. X. Lord, general
l passenger agent Of the Baltimore Is Ohio
I railroad. az Baltimore. MARYLAND.
