The closing entertainment in the
regular course of the Rock Island
Lecture association will be the con-
cert of the Mozart symphony club of
Brooklyn next Thursday evening.
The members of the club are Percy
Mitchell, violin soloist; Tn. Hoch,
violin; Richard Stoelzer, viola; Mario
Blodeck, violoncello; Miss Camille
Toulmin, harp; Karl Kraushaar,
flute, assisted by Miss Grace Milton,
prima donna soprano; Rich. Stoelzer,
viola d Amour soloist; Herr. Theo-
dor Hoch, cornet virtuoso; Mario
Blodeck, viol da gambia soloist. This
will doubtless be one of the most
pleasing entertainments in the
course, and different from any of the
others. BY request of a number of
patrons the reserving of seats will be
on same plan as for the Temple quar-
tet, the drawing of numbers by
chance, and reserving will begin at
1880 p. m. on Tuesday instead
of a. m. as heretofore. Seats
80 and IS cents. At 7:30 Tues
day evening number of checks
equal to number of persons waiting
to secure seats, will be thoroughly
mixed and passed by chance to those
present. Each check good for six
