BlaisdelI, violin; Rudolph Schiller, viola;
Geo. c. Jones, cello; assisted by Mrs. j. M.
Blake, soloist, to furnish music for con-
cert in Seaver's opera hall on Friday eve
ming, April %. This will be rare oppor-
tunitv for all lovers of fine music. The
musical ability of both the quartette and
soloist are too we'll known to need any
comment. Immediately following the
concert, members OF the quartette will fur
nish music for ball. A cordial invitation
is extended to all. The balcony will be
opened to those attending the concert at
35 cents a seat. Admission to floor for

have in part the support of the reading
room and in the course Of the club year
give two red letter evenings, one of which
is given to their friends and the other one
at the close of the year as means of rails
ing money for the maintenance of the
reading room. The ladies have spared no
pains to make it a success and it is hoped
all will avail themselves of the opportunity
of listening to fine concert together with
the pleasure of social evening, besides
helping a worthy cause.
