Herman, through his connection with the
Empire circuit, has placed his playhouse on
a firm footing. 1t Is with one of the best
or the new shows that he inaugurates his
season, and this, coupled with the i'm
provements that have been made during
the vacation, gives assurance that he has
neglected nothing calculated to please and
add to the comfort of his patrons. The
opening attraction possesses all the ad-
vantages of experienced management and
one stroke Of policy which Butler, Jacobs
and Lowry have attempted Is the introduc-
ton In the east of artists who have won
their laurels in the west but who are
calculated to vary the monotony OF old
faces. There Is something beside the
stereotyped wording in the statement that
scenic and electrical effects and handsome
costumes, as in point Of capital no oraan-
ization ever put forth in the realm Of bur
lesque has had more at its command. Its
first part, "A Night Off,'' Is a musical trav-
esty in which the policy OF new faces will
be seen to have extended to the chorus.
The extravaganza, '"Topsey Turvey," depicts
a sea voyage to the Philippines and a ship
wreck, which results in the loss of all the
baggage except one trunk. from which the
survivors are compelled to select wardrobes
