HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

The weekly change of programme at His Majesty's Theatre last evening provided a delightful collection of bright items that were thoroughly appreciated by a large audience. Miss Eenda Iludd opened the bill with a collection of monologues, and then danced delightfully, using a skipping rope at the- same time. Cardini provided new fare, and juggled with some plates and a golden ball with a- master hand, as well as doing all sorts of things with a pack of cards. In a very line baritone voice, Victor Burke sang "Friend o' Mine," "Yesterday and You," and "I Doii't Care What lou 'Used To Be." The first act was completed with the appearance of the eleven juveniles who have been so popular during the past couple of weeks with audiences at this theatre. In the second half, Keith Wilbur mimicked all sorts of sounds with good effect, but the finest of his attempts was the hushing of a crying child of tender 'months. Miss Estelle Rose told stories, sang, laughed, and had the house with her from the moment of her appearance. Willie Lancet and company repeated the item which they showed last week, and will this evening present a new piece entitled "Willies Birthday," in which Willie is reported to be"more of a scoundrel than ever." He is the cleverest juvenile comedian Wellington has seen. Maxwell Carew, the versatile English entertainer, was at his best, and the performance was completed with clever work by Frances and Clifton, a pair of acrobats who did things in the air that'left the audience gasping.
