. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. 294 The National Convention for 1879. The annual convention of the North Amer- ican Bee-Keepers' Society will be held in the Globe Theater, Des Plaines St., Chicago, 111., commencing at 10 a. m. on Tuesday, Oct. 21st, 1879. Arrangements have been made with the Washington Hotel and Gault House (near to the Theater) for board and lodging of those attending the convention, at $ per day. Cheap round-trip tickets can be procured on almost all the railroads centering in Chicago. The Executive Committee have made ar- rangements with the Great Western Rail- way of Canada to carry those coming to the convention, on a return ticket, at one and one-third fare; the Chicago, Pekin & South- eastern Railway at one and one-fifth fare ; the Chicago & Lake Huron Railway at 2c. per mile each way ; the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railway, between Chicago and Evansville, Chicago and Lafayette, via Hoopestou and Chicago & Indianapolis, at one and one-fifth fare. Those intending to avail themselves of these reduced rates must procure, from the office of the Bee Journal, in Chicago, a printed certificate that they are entitled to such reduced fare, to present to the ticket- office when purchasing their tickets. If enough are coming over the Pennsylvania Central Railway, the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne & Chicago, and the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Railways to warrant it, we can procure tickets specially printed, for 2c. per mile each way. It will be necessary for those coming over these roads to send their names to the Chairman of the Executive Committee, who will then forward the nec- essary orders on the local ticket-offices. All are invited. Present indications point to a very large and enthusiastic meeting. Thomas G. Newman, Chairman Executive Committee. E. Parmly, Sec.
