Lancaster Daily Intelligencer. (Lancaster, Pa.) January 23, 1880

The public should not forget that the entertainment for the benefit of the free soup
fund comes off in the opera house to-morrow evening. Apart from the fact that
entertainment is given in the interest of a most worthy charity, and should for that
reason alone receive a liberal patronage, it should also be remembered that the
entertainment itself is well worth the price charged for admission tickets. The
first part of the performance will consist of an exhibition of the wonderful powers
of Edison's phonograph or speaking machine, and an explanatory lecture on the same
by J. J. Sprenger, who has exhibited it in many prominent cities in Europe. The
second and concluding part of the entertainment will be a variety performance
conducted by Mr. Dan. Clemmens, Jr., assisted by the best talent in Lancaster. Let
there be a large turnout to-morrow evening, that the receipts may add handsomely to
the soup house company.
