Luke’s has been unfortunate, financially, Ita wards have not been eltogetlier tragrant with the per- fumne of the luxurles of this life, and now and ngain the patients have wanted for deifeacles. AL the anniversary, when the reports came n, thiey were poctieally despondent {n thelr melan- clioly relation of monetary deficiencies. Yetall demonatrated that 8t. Luke's had &ttil a chance, and euch prociaimed that 8t. Luke's must and shall be preserved. Aund soclety re-cehoed the cryy and gatfering its forees stepped forward to the preservation, Money must be ralsed. One young Indy st the example. By her unalded efforts shie aecured enough cash to palnt the institutlon inslde and out.

Bouth SIde socicty, besides charftable fn- atincts, possesses much hlstrionlc talent. So a theatrical entertainment was aceepted as the sole rnd avniy means fn which soclety could all participate, part Lo play and the balance to ap- plund. Standara Ilall was chosen as the theatre, and last night and to-night fixed upon for the presentation of the play, A PRENUIT COMEDY, in thrce nscts, cntitled “The Widow,” and translated by Mr. Herbert Ayer, clalmed the studious attention of the pluyers, and to thelr credit be §t recorded they departed from the time-honored custom of ninateurs, and—jearned their lines. It bas always heen deemed the espeelal proviuce of nou-professfonal actors and actresses to unload the speaking parts upon the prompter, while " the people of the stuge exchangend courtasles with such of thetr unfortunate friends as huppened to b be- trayed Into forming a purt of the sudience. The play last night wus n warked departure from this clever und euturu\lnln‘gl custum, and the cast stuck well to Its text and business, vegard- less of everything save n ereditable performunce for those who pald thelr money.
