OPERA HOUSE.
New faces and new items attracted : a large audience to the Opera.. House on ; Saturday evening, when Fuller's Entertainers submitted a bright and interesting programme. Chief amongst those who made their first'appearance was Mr Frank Harwood, who gave several descriptive tongs with excellent effect. The descriptive sccna, "Looking' Glass," was especially well rendered, the different characters who poured out their souls' secrets before the mirror being realistically pourtrayed. Mr Harwood's other items, and notably the fiscal song, "One Good Turn Deserves Another, John Bull," were very appreciatively received. Mr Sam Wilson, anotlier new arrival, scored a decided success hv his character and humorous songs. Miss< Florrie Leigh, another new performer, was ,successful in her vocal item.'" Tho Bertotos, Misses Rosio and Millie, increased their already great popularity, and Miss Edith Burke, Sliss Barbara Ren ton, and Miss Tillie Dunbar were all well received. The humorous songs given by Messrs Chas. Moody, Will Dy.«jon, and Aubrey Douglass evoked considerable applause, and each performer was encored. Zamoni's conjuring feats were interesting and cleverly done. To-night the company will repeat the programme.
