satisfied the audience
as
to their
skill in the

ete.,
and
none
would
be
averse
to seeing
them
again.
It
is tu
be
regretted,
however,
that their
performances
formed
only
a
part of the programme
the half of which
wlis
made
up
of moving
pictures
of
a
tame
sort that appearedto disappoint
the
house,
a
large
number
of the
audience
leaving
when
they
came
on.
With all
due respect
to the
management
which it
is believed had
the public entertainment
in mind when arranging
the
programme,
it is suggested
that
the Gilmore perform-
ers
be
asked
to give
an
exhibition' of
their
own
exclusive
acts
whieh
being
rare
in this
island
will be
more
