Mrs. Scott-Siddons will give her elocu-
tionary entertainment and readings In the
new Y. NJ. c. A. hall. on Front street, be-
tween Union ard Pike. Tuesday evening.
April % Admission. 81, with no extra
charge for reserved seats. Tickets are for
sale at Yemen & vaughan's, in the Seattle
block. II was long ago discovered by
managers that readings were SLOW" and
that they did not draw" and as . rule
this is doubtless true; but fortunately for
reading rs q profession, there is at least
one exception to the long list of readers
whose performances do not prove pecuni-
arily successful, and il is quite unneces-
sary to tell the people of Seattle who the
exception is. OF course, unsuccessful
readers are very apt to say that il is public
opinion that is at fault. aad no doubt il is
so very often but after all, the public may
not be very much astray in the estimate OF
the value of an entertainment When a
reader attempts TO rival q good theatrical
performance he must remember that he is
not only pitting himself against fearful
odds in point of numbers, but in point
of surroundings as WELL The public
paw a certain sum for a certain amount of
enjoyment. which is made up In various
WAYS. 1t may be by moving them to mirth
or solemnity. or the stirring of emotions in
which pleasure and sorrow are so CON-
mingled that the one l, dependent upon the
other for existence. Beauty. too, is a rec.
ognized attraction on the stage, as the eve
demands IT'S share Of enjoyment. Now, in
spite of all that may be said to the con-
trary. acting and reading are intimately
associated in the minds of amusement
seekers, and what wonder is it, then. that
clever individuals fail when they enter the
lists against all companies of other people
who have the community OF the play and
all the stage accessories 10 help them
