decided 90 discontinue the series.
The disappointment among ticket pur-
Chasers last night was great, and some
surprise was expressed over the fact that
q series of guaranteed concerts should be
abandoned, but naturally those VINO had
pledged themselves Co cover a possible
deficit did not desire TO continue in the
face Of certain failure. The usual genev-
Gus response on the part Of the Wash

lacking, and just what the reason was is
not known
There has been an abundance Of music
