PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEM. BLY AT LOS ANGELES NEXT YEAR.

The Chicago ft North-Western Ry. announces that all lines have agreed to a rate of $60.00 for the round trip from Chicago for the next general assembly of the Presbyterian Church which will meet at Los Angeles in May. The Knights of Pythias, Federation of Women's Clubs and quite a number of other national conventions found the Coast a very desirable meeting place during the season just closed, and there is no doubt but that the assembly will be likewise well pleased with its selection of Los Angeles for 1903. The rapid growth of western travel has been largely due to the splendid facilities offered by Chicago ft NorthWestern and other transcontinental railway lines and tpe low rates that have been made by them for meetings of this kind. The result is a volume of migration to the west that makes Horace Greeley’s famous piece of advice to young mien seem quite needless in this present day.
