THE PRINTERS' PENSION, ALMSHOUSE, AND ORPHAN ASYLUM CORPORATION.
[TO THIS EDITOR OP THE " SPECTATOR:1
SIR,—May I draw the attention of your readers to the fact that a special matinee under the immediate patronage of H.R.H. Princess Louise (Duchess of Argyll) in aid of the Printers' Pension, .Almshouse, and Orphan Asylum Corpora- tion will be given, under the direction of Mr. Holmes Kingston, in the Adelphi Theatre on Thursday afternoon, June 18th, at 2 o'clock ? As Madame Sarah Bernhardt has most kindly agreed to take part in the performance, the event should be one of great interest to playgoers, while at the same time help- ing one of the most deserving of charities. Seats may now be booked at the Adelphi Theatre, and at the usual agents, or may be obtained from the members of the Ladies' Committee, and from Mr. Holmes Kingston, 33 Great Pulteney Street, W. Stalls, £1 ls. ; dress circle, 108. 61; upper circle, 7s. 6d. (two first rows), and 5s. ; pit stalls, numbered and reserved, 4s.; pit, 2s. 6d. ; gallery, ls. For private boxes offers are invited.— Feeling that a printers' charity must necessarily interest you,
The charity is, we believe, an excellent one, and we there- fore relax our rule against inserting such appeals and publish our correspondent's letter, and trust that the Committee of Ladies who have organised the matinee will obtain the success that their kindly efforts most certainly deserve.—ED. Spectator.]
