ENTERTAINMENTS.

FULLER'S VAUDEVILLE. The bright sotting of the fhst part of the programme at the Theatre Royal is only in keeping with -the faro provided. The company is strong all round, and not a dull moment is possible from the rise to the fall of the curtain. The merit of every performer was fully recognised at yesterday evening's performance, an encore being demanded in practically every instance.

HIS MAJESTYIS THEATRE. Tho new picture programme at His Majesty's Theatre, Courtenay Place, which was'so enthusiastically received by the large audience which attended the initial exhibition on Wednesday evening, drew another largo' and appreciative audience last evening. The new programme is an unusually fine one, representing a great variety of subjects. The' star items of the dramatiu group are "The Duke's Plan," "A Woman's Folly," "Tho Course of True Love," and "The Clown's Crime." Humour is represented by "Poolshead as Chief of Reporters," "Up-to-date Imps," and "That Skating Carnival." Ah excellent example of scenic kinematography are "Tho Lake of Lucerne." The programme will be repeated this evening, and for to-morrow •'the usual matinee and evening exhibitions aro announced.

THE KING'S THEATRE. The success which attended tho initial presentation of the new picture programme at the King's Theatre on Wednesday night was repeated last, evening, when the fine series of kinematograph films was shown to a very large and thoroughly appreciative audience. An excellent laughter-raiser, "That Skating Carnival," is the opening picture. Then follow pictures in great variety. Tlie finest of tho scenic 'pictures' aro: "The Lake of Brientz," and "The Volcanoes and Craters of the Oceanic Islands." Dramatic studies aro well represented by 'The Duke's Plan," and.
