The Schneider Trip

To the Editor, Hongkong --

Telegraph,]

Sir,-At rather short notica we learn thut the Schneider Trio is again giving a concert here, on Tuesday, February 28, at 9.15 pini. at the Helena May Institute.

Owing to the difficulty of obtain- ing a full hall on their previous visits, we are trying the experi- ment. of reducing prices to $130 and $2.20, and hope this will prove successful. Tickets are now ob tainable at Andërson's.

Advertisements will appear this week, but in the meantime I shall be glad if you will give publicity, to this advance intimation.

Hon. Secretary,

Hongkong Musical.
