HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
The new programm'o at His Majesty's Theatre last, evening served to introduce several new ar„_ts. Will J. Saunders, billed as a chalk camouflage artist, made a number of sketches in surprisingly quick time, including a good likeness of the Prime Minister of tho Commonr wealth. Kit Toms and Roma presented a musical .comedy turn, which comprised songs and patter of a fairly, amusing nature. Daring feats on the trapeze were performed by Mdlle. Dolinda, whose act proved to be one of the most popplar of the evening. The 'artist twisted and turned in every way imaginable, and concluded the turn by performing a number of evolutions round the bar. Pagden and Stanley won a great deal of approbation for their songs and patter. Tom liughes, the Scotch comedian, sang a number of songs about the kilts and the lassies. Miss Etta Field, the New Zealand soprano, was again in good voice, and sang several songs in fine style. These included " From the Land of the Sky Blue Water," "Farewell." " Sing, Sing, Black Bird," and Tosti's " Good-bye," tho latter being a particularly fine effort. Beresford and Rennie sang songs, Jack Brichley (the contortionist) made himself look lilo. everything else but a man, and Victor the Great, and Co. concluded the performance with a ventriloquist act. The programme vyill be repeated throughout tho week.
