DoRscHr CHARITY CONCERTS.
Sale of Seats for Subscribers Opens
 Monday Morning. ..l

The subscribers sale for the Dorscht charity concerts opens Monday morn- ing at steinert & Sons, TIT Chapel street.

The list of applications for subscribers seats this year is the. largest thus far in the history of the concerts, which is very gratifying to the managers of this worthy cause in behalf of aged nlusi- clans.
