OPERA HOUSE
There was another large audience at the Opera House last evening, when Fullers \ Entertainers presented the week's programme for the second time. The " star " turn" was that of the Reggiardos, who gave an exhibition of 6word-swallowing and juggling that met with insistent applause. Mr Regfiardo's final feat of driving a bayonet own his throat by the recoil of a gun was a remarkable one, and the ease with which electric bulbs were -wallowed by his sister elicited prolonged applause. Watte and Lucas again gave their clever boxing burlesque, and Madame Blanche Carelli's ballads were received with encores. Miss Brightie Smith, the Lucas Sisters, and Mr Tom Bryant were very successful in their turns, and the Marlowe Sisters again earned hearty plaudits. A series of bioscope pictures was shown by Mr Will Cochrane in a clever manner, a film entitled "When the Devil Drives " being especially well received. The programme will be repeated this evening.
