THE TRADE EXHIBITION. 



Plats of the space allotted to the 

 trade exhibition at the San Francisco 

 convention, such as the one reproduced 

 herewith, are being sent out to intend- 

 ing exhibitors. The exhibition hall and 

 meeting rooms are on the fourth floor 

 of the Exposition Memorial Audito- 

 rium. If this hall should not prove 

 large enough, another hall, of 8,000 

 square feet, on the opposite side of 

 the building will be available. The 

 charge for space is 40 cents per square 

 foot, with a minimum charge of $20, 

 and the usual regulations obtain. 



Hotel headquarters, exhibition hall 

 and convention are not so conveniently 

 located as they have been at previous 

 conventions. The exhibition hall, which 



is on the exposition grounds, is about 

 two miles northwest of the Hotel St. 

 Francis, which, it is understood, is to 

 be convention headquarters. The con- 

 vention garden, in Golden Gate park, 

 is between two and three miles south- 

 west of the exposition grounds and 

 over three miles from the hotel. 



A CAIjL for GUARANTORS. 



In accordance with instructions of 

 the committee, April 2, Secretary John 

 Young, 53 West Twenty-eighth street, 

 New York, invites subscriptions to the 

 guarantee fund of $10,000 for the na- 

 tional flower show to be held at Phila- 

 delphia next March. Mr. Young says: 



"While the sum mentioned could, no 

 doubt, be raised in and around Phila- 

 delphia, it was the thought of the com- 

 mittee that the fund should be national 

 in character and represent every sec- 

 tion of the country. The forthcoming 

 show in Philadelphia promises to
