ENTERTAINMENTS.

FULLERS ENTERTAINERS, Fullers' Vaudeville Company had all overflowing house on Saturday night, when a change of the week's programme was made. Will James, the banjo executant, was greeted with applause thai proved his popularity to be well maintained, while Professor Davy's clever and comical entermainment with the Royal Marionettes kept the. audience in good humour. Charles C. Ward's comic songs were favourably leceived, and similar approval was given to Fred Bransgrove — the double-voiced vocalist. A horizontal bar display by The Vantells was neat and clever; and 'the double somersault by Ernest Vantell — from No. 1 bar, across No. 2, and oa to No. 3 — drew forth a salvo of .applause from tha onlookers. The distance covered in thi3 leap is eighteea f©2t. Denis Carney, Bonelta and Williams, A. L. Cropp, Brighlie Smith, and Malvona Moore, were other successful contributors. '10-night an old and popular vocalist, Mr. John Fuller, senior, will make a reappearance with the company, for a season of four nights. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. There was, standing room only oa Saturday night, vrhen a complete series of new pictures was shown. A noticeably good and instructive one showed the operations of a Salmon Fishing Fleet from tho departure from to their return to port. Another excellent picture was that taken of the Harvard and Cambridgo eigths practicing. There are many other films which help to make an attractive- exhibition. The results of the fourth Limerick competition will be announced this evening. CLARA BUTT-RUMFORD. The reappearance to-morrow evening in Wellington of Madame Clara Butt and Mr. Kennerlcy Rumford is being awaited with keen interest, particularly in view of the fact that it, will be ths last opportunity but, one of hearing the singers before they finally lake- their departure ior Australia and England oa Friday next.
