things which they are striving to ac-
compiish and they need help, finan-
cial help. They expect the musically
inclined people Of the city to help in
this undertaking, not only by attend
ing the concert themselves but by
urging their friends and acquaint-
| ences oattend.
The concert will be given in the
opera house, beginning promptly at
$3.50 o'clock. The prices Of admission
Will be very reasonable. Inside the
railing downstairs, where seats will
be reserved, the price will be $1.O0.
Behind the railing will be rs cents
and the gallery will be SO cents. A
partition is in the gallery separating
the races.
Particular pains have been taken by
the ladies in charge Of the concert to
have the ticket sale conducted so that
none may be disappointed in secur-
ing tickets. They have had reserved
and general admission tickets print
ed to be sold on the streets. Those
purchasing these reserved seat tickets
can carry them to the Palmetto Drug
store on the 10th and have them ex-
changed for numbered reserved seats
or coupons. Me,l orders received up
until that date will also be taken care
of on the same day. Purchasers of
reserved seat tickets on the streets
are expected to have them exchanged
for the coupons on that day. Then,
on the next day or thereafter the gem
eral sale Of reserved seats will take
place, when anyone can buy tickets
and coupons at the drug store. Of
course, anyone buying tickets on the
streets can have them redeemed at
the drug store even after the 10Th,
though it will be best to secure the
coupons in exchange for the tickets
on the 18th so as to be sure OF secur-
Ing seat This plan was hit upon
by the ladies to ensure everyone Sc
curing a reserved seat who purchased
ticket before the 10Th This also
gives the early purchaser the advan-
tage Of the purchaser who delays, be-
cause the holders Of the street sale
tickets have the first chance at the
reserved seats. As the number OF
reserved seats is limited, it will be
safest to buy at the first opportunity.
