JITJDDERSFIELD BELLRINGERS BAND. A unique musical event will 'be the visit of the above hand, who show at the Theatre Royal to-night. The band numbers twelve, several of whom have been ringing for twenty-five years. All the visitors are trained artists, and the manipulation of their instruments is said to be marvellous even to those who are acquainted with the technical intricacies of handbell tune ringing. The band controls from 200 to 225 bells, weighing from 2oz. to 201b., each of the treble ringers being responsible for twenty and the bass ringers for fifteen. The band started their Australasian season six weeks ago, audi from reports to hand are meeting with great success, so a packed house should greet them here. Several English artists assist the bond, including Miss Ella Airlic, the charming young pianoloquist, mimic xylophonist, who is spoken of as one of England's most popular artists. The plan is at Collier's.
