Sale of Seats Assures Capacity
Audience and Brilliant Assemblage to Hear Lecture by
Rev. Dr. Riley.

The sale of seats is conclusive evidence that the audience at the illustrated lecture on the Passion Play tonight at the Elks' theater will fill the house to its capacity. The interest in the event, the proceeds of which are to go to the Sisters' hospital, in society circles, insures, moreover, that the audience will be an exceptionally brilliant one.

The sacred concert, which accompanies the lecture and pictures, will be taken part in by the leading musical talent of the city, and will be a treat.

Dr. Riley, who tells the story of the world's greatest tragedy as he shows the wonderful lantern slides depicting the Passion Play at Oberammergau, is a powerful and silver tongued orator, who adds to his native eloquence and magnetism a remarkable polish and culture and who has the added advantage of having been twice an eye-witness of the spectacle in the Bavarian Alps.
