1t has been decided to give a second
performance of the two farces, "A
Proposal Under Difficulties" and 1.-THE
Bicyclers," on Tuesday evening, since
so many people have asked to be al
lowed to attend on the first evening,
and it being feared that the capacity
of the Kilohana Art League hall will
! be insufficient to accommodate all. 1t
has been deemed best to charge an adj
mission fee of 80 cents for the second
performance, which will be to the pub
lie in general. The proceeds will go
toward defraying the expenses of the
league, and it is believed that suf-
fcient amount will be CLEANED to leave
I tAe art organization free of debt.
