of creation and revelation and then
to instruct Him in the events of the

Beating tho Soalners.


Before and since the New Orleans ex-
position opened, the question of reduced
rates over the various railways through
out the state, and in fact throughout the
Union, has been vexed one. The REQ
pie clamored for reduction, and while
the roads were, as it now appears, al
ways willing to give it, yet they were
not ready, as they had to de-
wise some means by which
they could protect themselves from
ticket scalpers. They have, by COM
Dination OF all the roads in the state and
the adoption of uniform excursion
ucket to Now Orleans, good for Is or 30
uays, with proviso, succeeded in re-
uuclng the fare from this point to SIS for
10 days and $22 81 for 80, round trip tick
ets. The ticket, the body of which
reads the same on all roads, binds the
purchaser to conform to certain condi-
ions which prevents the purchaser
from transferring or disposing of it to
TO another party. When he purchases
tho ticket as an eXcursionist to the ex-
signs tho agreement embracing these
points. II he returns before
the expiration of the fifteen days he is
required to go before joint agent of
The roads at New Orleans, and In the
presence of witnesses sign it again to
the effect that he is returning home. If
he arrives within fifteen DAYS from the
day the ticket was issued he gets a re-
bate ON it according to tho fare from the
point he purchased it. From here, for
instance, If lie returns within that
time he gets a rebate Of $7.3j on the
S2S.35 he paid for it, but if ho STAYS
longer, the limit being thirty days, he
gets no rebate. The agent who issues the
ticket compares tho signature of the
purchaser, given when the ticket is
sold, with that signed at New Orleans.
ana II they are the same and he has re,
turned within theprescribed fifteen days
ne gets his rebate. This is death blow
to the scalpers, who expected to reap
harvest out OF travel to New Orleans.
