from Chicago in the evening, which will
bring parties into Nev Orleans 10 the morn
ing. On account Of the heavy trains that
are now run II is almost impossible to reach
! eating stations on time, and for this reason
IL is well for all to take well flied lunch bas-
kets, besides this is not only necessary to
comfort but IS 4 wise stroke OF economy, no
less economical, though probably more fash
iouable, because enforced.
on arriving In New Orleans It Is not we'll
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 canvlssed their city
and arranged for cutertliumrut at reason
able rates, and unless you have friends In
the city with whom you intrnd to stop, IL is
Just a. we'll to wait u.til YOU can visit tue
headquarters Of the committee on entertain
men;. Each person must regulate Bis own
expenses. On account VI The crowded cen
ditaou of the roads south of CHICAGO, WASH
ingtpn aud - Louis, the southern roads
found It impossible 10 extend those cuurtc-
sles which they would otherwise gladly have
rendered to tue editors of the north, but Ihe
person who would becrulgc dfteen or twenty
dollars railroad fare 10 visit New Orleans and
tue great WORLDS exposition would be 1u-
grateful indeed.
