The Payne Family.
« Our readers will be pleased to see by the advertisement elsewhere, that the celebrated Payne Family will appear at the Public hall next Saturday. The last time we had a visit from these talented artistes was two years ago, when they performed to a packed house. , / Referring to their present tour the Hobart Mercury says : — There was no mistaking the welcome accorded the Payne Family at the Town Hall last evening. Every part of the , building was crowded, and nearly all the 2s seats had been secured at Miller's before the doors . opened. This in itself speaks well Jor the popularity of the singers, W* was sufficient to re-assure them before they came out to sing the firsft number. Since they were last here they have not in any way deteriorated; on the contrary, we noticed improvements in some of the instrumental items, and there were also additions. The hand bells which last evening formed such a prominent feature of the entertainment have beeu studied, and the way they were handled showed that diligence has boon the companion of skill ever since they were obtained. It is some time since the bellringers have been heard here, but the Payne Family gave a capitai demonstration of the music that can be got Out of them, and pleased their hearers very much indeed. ..', » '■
