A BENEFIT PROMOTER
Charity Gets What Is Left After He Is
Paid
New York Sun.


The activity of benefit promoter
has not once this season disturbed the
easy flow Of such pleasant benevol ences
and it seems now as if this functionary
was not to take any permanent place in
New York. He-sometimes She
originated in the west, where their
operations met with degree Of succ ess
that has never been duplicated here.
For a share of the receipts or a fixed
sum over the expenses, the benefit pro-
moter offered to organize any enterta in
ment which the women of the charity
should boom. Then the profits went to
the charity after certain sum had
been deducted for the organizer. It
very freqently happened that there
were no profits and the only person who
really benefited by the undertaking was
the promoter, who got his share from
the first money that came in.
After several noted failures Of this
kind the promoter disappeared and has
not been seen since. Charities, even
when the subscribers are wealthy, find
that benefit is necessary occasional
ly, as persons are much more willing to
give when there is some inducement.
The general public, on the other hand,
has ceased to be interested in benefits;
and even that of the actors fund will
probably be discontinued. .s-
