Mr Lincoln's Entertainment

(The following was issued as an " Extra" from this office yesterday morning.)

We need scarcely remind our readers of the exceptionally rare treat in store for all attendants at the Assembly Booms tomorrow evening, when " America's greatest humorist," Mr Frank Lincoln, will make his obeisance to the Feilding pnblic. We would, however, strongly advise those persons who wish to secure reserved seats to book without delay, and all others who would avoid disappointment to attend early. The force of these observations is shown by the following extract from an article in the Wellington Evening Press: —It were idle to go into detail over Mr Lincoln's entertainment, which is the funniest, the most refined, and at the same time to the,student of human nature the most instructive of its peculiar kind ever given in New Zealand. One and all should go and see it; we believe they will, and that being so the community here will be healthier, body and soul, for some time to come. Not the less an attraction is Mr Foster, Mr Lincoln's pianist and ] a companyist. This gentleman's splendid playing was rapturously applauded, and, an unusual compliment, his selection during the interval was enthusiastic illy encored. We have to thank the genial agent, Mr Lohr, for facilities placed at our comnand; the public have to thank him for giving us here in. Wellington the great treat of being the first to enjoy so rare an entertainer as Mr Frank Lincoln. We should add that early attendance is necessary to obtain seats, as fully 200 persons had to be turned away from the doors.
