PIKE's oPERA-HoUsE.
The Pat Rooney Combination appeared
at Pixies Opera-house last evening. 1t
drew good house and the audience seemed
well pleased with the performance. The
show has the advantage of greatly varied
programme, every part of which is good III
its way. Pat Rooney, who is whole host
of himself, appears in number of special
ties giving full scope for his great ability as
an impersonator of the rollcking Irish char
acter.
To fail seeing this company will be to
miss one of the really good things of the
season.
