BIJOU THEATRE.

George II. Broadhurst's farce What Happened
to Jones was transferred last night from the
Manhattan Theatre to the Bijou. The change OF
place does not give rise TO any new thoughts In
regard 10 the play. The scheme Of II Is ingenious
and highly amusing and II Is written In bright
and attractive manner. In Its planning of Incl
dents II is recklessly farcical and the determine
ton to make the audience laugh overrides all
thought Of probability. even possibility. Miss
Matte Ferguson played the part OF the servant
last night and In other respects the cast was the
same as at the Manhattan Theatre.
