I'VE have received from tramp CON-
nnnication respecting the '.tramp question, y

which we cannot publish entire at any time,

The Hutchinson Family John w. J, sang
at Lyceum Hail. for the benefit of the Re
form Club, on last Wednesday evening. 1t
was an excellent concert. Very naturally
people compared the singing of this family
with that of Asa's, that sang here few weeks
ago III some respects each exce,s the other.
It was very unfortunate that so many pieces
ou the programme were the same as those
sung at Asa's concerts. After hearing these
sung each time in the three concerts
given lefe 10y Asa Hutchinson, the audience
would have preferred to hear something not
quite so well worn. The concert was poorly
advertised, and as a consequence, it was poor
ly attended.
