The nrcGtbsnx Concerts.

The McGibeny family have been before the
public since 1876, and have won an enviable
reputation. Mrs. McGibeny is vocalist who
possesses full, sweet voice and the faculty
and cultivation necessary to make it very eff
fective and pleasing. She is ably seconded
by Professor McGibeney, who has good
voice and the power to use it. The children
also sing with marked ability. Among the
strongest features of their programmes are
the band numbers, in which the eight chill
dren participate, even to the little tot, Flor
ence, who beats the bass drum like veteran.
The character sketches and comic selections
are pleasing alike to old and young. The
