AMUSEMENTS.

OPERA HOUSE. A Tairly good attendance at Fuller's Opera House last evening- thoroug-hly enjoyed a varied and well balanced programme. As a curtain-raiser, the musical turn provided by Jenny Roy was much above the average. Her songs were well sung-, and her dancing- and high kicking were exceptionally good. J. E. Sutton, the English entertainer. received much applause Tor his clever patter and his new monolog-ue, " The Borderline." The outstanding- item on the programme, however, was the rantastic dancing or Max Sandrisi and JUta Copelii. From the ordinary this couple qulcklv developed into the extraordinary, and the quaint antics introduced by both of them were so drolj that the audience roared with laug-hter, and clamoured for more and more. Amy Roehelle. billed as the girl with the milliondollar voice and the million-dollar smile, quickly won the hearts of everybody. She was able 10 impersonate the singringeffort? or juveniles with great success, and her efforts in that direction won her as much applause as her song-s rendered in her natural voice. OT her items the " House " could very well have done with a few encores. John Moore, the Scottish baritone, grave his clever impersonation of the Sandwich Man, and had a lot or new patter of the most amusing- sort. He pave liberally or his talents to an insistent audience that did not want him to Ir.ave the stag-e. isiblo and Doris, in their black and white eccentric comedy act. g/ot a pood reception. Eutrene Knoop, the. ambidextrous caligraphist. put on a novel turn, in which he wrote different words with his two hands simultaneously. His undoubted ability took the fancy of the audience, and his various achievements were greeted with applause. As acrobatics, the Foy Brothers put in some hard work on the horizontal bars, their efforts adding to the variety or the evening's entertainment.
