Arery and Hart quitted the Albambra after one week. Wby they closed I am at a loss to know as their act went very strong the nlebt I saw them. One of the most pleasing features at tbe London Hlppodfome at the present time la contriDtited by Maccart'a monkeys. The act Is a little away from the customary one of this kind snd there la one big laugh from the itsrt to the finish. The monkeys are working In tbe ring, which Is something new for them, but despite the strange surroundings they teem to work better. Since I saw the act In America several new monkeys have been idded and the whole performance greatly im- proved.
