In a notice of Henshaw and Ten Broeck and a strong specialty company in "The Nabobs," a play that will be given in Batavia next Monday night, the Kansas City Times says: "These stars have an undoubted success in their new piece. They have struck the popular vein and will doubtless win many dollars. 'The Nabobs' is made up of bright comedy work, many pretty songs, dances, and other specialties, while the people are clever and attractively dressed. Some of the costumes are quite elegant.
