THE BIGGEST THING OF THE SEASON
A Prospective Thousand Dollars Promised
for the Poor.

Prospective Thousand Dollars Promised
for the Poor.
The hearts of the people are in it. There
are gentlemen who have voluntarily paid
as much as five dollars for single seat,
and hundreds of tickets besides have been
sold for the grand charity concert. At
least one thousand additional tickets
should be bought. 1t will be brilliant
assembiage and delightful entertain
ment. Many express the hope that the
opera house will be fuller than ever in its
history, and others say that they do not
doubt it. 1t is already certain that the
parquet, family circle and the balcony and
boxes will all be filled. The gallery will
hold hundreds more, and there will
be mo hoodlums permitted up there.
Next Friday night is the time
and the singers, players. actors
and speakers are all mp in their parts.
From the time the curtain goes up until
the close of Meyerbeer's Hugenot grand
concert march every minute will be
crowded with music and pastimes. AS
soon as one number is rung off another
will be rushed on. Every cent paid in,
c<ery dollar realized, over and above q
minimum cost for the hall, will be eX
pended by committee of gentlemen,
whom everybody trusts, to help those
through the winter who otherwise must
inevitably suffer- The following is the
varied. artistic and interesting program,
as banded in by Mrs. Walden last evening:
