the way the Milwaukee Sentinel ex-
pressed itself regarding the famous
cartoon musical farce, 'Henpecked
Henry" which will be seen at the
Robinson Grand Thursday, February
%.
Henry" Is one OF the most original
characters everp resented upon the
stage. You see him in the placid
humility of domineered husband one
moment and the gay and festive fol-
lower Of chorus girls and buyer OF
champagne the next. He often breaks
into song, as do his companions, and
there is not dull moment in the en-
tire entertainment. One scene in par
1ticular Is claimed by the management
to be the most amusing ever con-
ceived. 1t is where the shrewish wife
finds the old sport in gross iniquity
and funeral procession marches
around him TO the music of dirge.
