THE STORY OF THE KELLY GANG
It is announced in another column that Messrs. J. and N. Tait, the wellknown Australian entrepreneurs, whose introduction of the famous Besses o’ th’ Barn Band is still vividly recollected by Gisborne residents, wili present on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings next their latest bioscope venture, entitled “The Story of the Kelly Gang,” at His Majesty’s Theatre, Gisborne. This picture, which is stated to be the finest animated picture ever produced in Australia, has been shown to immense audiences in Australia, and is pronounced by gentlemen who have been actively engaged in the chase and capture of this notorious gang of lawbreakers true to facts. It has taken Messrs. Tait’s operators over six months to complete the picture, and its cost is said to exceed the sum of £IOOO. At times over fifty people were engaged thereon, and the Victorian Government hired a special train to Messrs. Tait to give a realistic representation of an attempt to wreck a train at Glenrwoan. Seats can now be booked at Miller’s.
