Author George w. Cable Coming.
The literary and social circles of Seattle are
enthusiastically engaged in an effort to make
the reception to Mr.. George W. Cable, the dis
tingulshed novelist and lecturer, in every way
creditable and satisfactory. The lectures are to
be given in the First Methodist Episcopal
church, corner of Third and Marion tomorrow
and Tuesday of this week. The sale of tickets
has been very large and already promises to in
sure Mr.. Cable two OF the largest audiences he
viii have in the Northwest. These lectures
have met with the most favorable reception
wherever given. They consist of readings and
dellneations of character as found in Mr. Cables
works, and he is pronounced by the general
verdict to be superior TO Charles Dickens in the
splendid manner with which he sustains the
undivided attention and sympathy of his audi
ence from the beginning to the close of the lee
ture, while his singing of Creole songs is ALWAYS
greeted with heartiest applause. 1t is crafty
ing to know that he will be so well received
here. Tickets are now on sale at the usual
places and are in the hands of the ladies of the
Aid Society of this popular church. To their
unuring efforts much credit is due for the
already assured success of Mr.. Cable in Seattle
