The Gilmore Concert-Post-Lenten At
traction.

After the strict Lenten season, and in
the height OF the Easter gaielies, we are
TO be treated 10 a concert by the great
Pat Gilmore and his famous band. On
last Monday the enterprising firm of
Walter d. Moses & Co., which has been
highly instrumental in coaxing Mr. Gill
more TO Richmond, opened at their office
a subscription list for the seats valued at
81 each, and when we consulted this list
last evening we found the encouraging
showing of one hundred and twenty-five
subscribers representing four hundred
seats
Messrs. Moses & Co, the chosen repre-.
sentatives OF Mr.. Gilmore, are TO be
congratulated on the propitous opening
of the list, and We bespeak for their efforts
crowded and enthusiastic house on
April 9th at the Academy. But why
haven't you put your name down for the
number of seats you will need? Must
we warn you TO do so at once and thus
avoid the rush and clsmor Of both resi-
dents and non.residents
The concert Is an assured success, and
Mr.. Gilmore will certainly carry out all
he promises. We urge YOU 10 subscribe
simply as a matter Of your own personal
convenience. The list will remain open
ten DAYS or two weeks longer, and the
hox-sheet will open at the expiration OF
that time.
