HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
Vaudeville at its best aply describes the new bill presented at His Majesty's Theatre last evening. An original turn is put on by Leg Bau Malagas, who appear in Spanish song and dance, and are well received. Ths senorita's rendering of French songs, with accompani-, ment on the madolin, is delightful. Hawaiian melodies and dancing are provided by the Hilo Trio, who are encored again and again. There is something in Hawaiian music which arouses most people to admiration, and when accompanied by " hula " dancing it is irresistible. Ruth Bucknall's soprano voice is well suited to the operatic airs she sings, and her " Annie Laurie" brings down the house. " The Androu, ventriloquist and comedian, appear in some really clever turns, in which, an almost' human doll plays a prominent part. The second half of the programme is occupied by Walter George and his Sunshine Players, who present an original playlet, " The Scarab." George Storey handles most of the comedy work, and his sallies'never fail to elicit a roar from the audience. The play concerns the doings of a party of tourist; in Egypt, <and provides plenty of scope for clever dialogue and skilful daivinS. It may be said that this week's programme is one of the best that has yet appeared at His Majesty's Theatre.
