" D0dge's Trip to New York"

On Wednesday. September LIST, Mana
ger G. E. Capron offers the theatre goers
Of this city novelty in the shape Of the
new musical farce comedy called "Dodge's
Trip to New York" which will be inter
preted by that prince of entertainers,
John E. Henshaw and the 20 other artists
who make up the Henshaw-Ten Brock
Comedy company.
The vehicle in which Mr.. Henshaw is
starring this season is g Dodge's Trip to

BILE to visit to the French ball in New
York City, by Howell l. Dodge bank
president from rural village in New Jer-
sey. There is said to be ample scope
afforded in the slight thread of story to
meet all the requirements of farce comedy
The piece has achieved decided success,
and'is, from all accounts, SO designed that
every moment of the time allotted to its
presentation is filled with something clever
enough to divert the mind OF the theatre
goer from business cares, and other wOr-
ries that induce people to seek recreation
in the theatre. The fact that it is simply
big entertainment in which no claim is
made for plot, and no effort aimed at
except to amuse for the time being, has
given MIR. Henshaw wide latitude for
improving on the authors original version
by the infusion of plenty of specially
features, and arranging a musical roper
toire that spalkles with the latest compost
| tons. There are more than two dozen
songs and choruses scattered throughout
the three acts and in the entire list it is
claimed there are but few that have done
service in any iarcical play that has been
presented here this season or last.
As the bucolic bank president Dodge,
Mr.. Henshaw is credited with making a
much more emphatic success than while be
