Buffalo Bill Tonight.

This noted scout arrived in this city this morning together with his large company, including Sioux chiefs and interpreters direct from the plains of the far west, in a drama especially written for Bill, by Maj. A. S. Burt, of the regular army and a participant with him in several expeditons. It treats mainly of the great Mormon war, in which Cody (though but a mere boy) was a participant. The most interesting scenes of the play, are initiating ceremony or marriage in the endowment chamber of Brigham Young's Temple, and the camping scene in Echo canon - which introduces the Sioux Indians, Interpreters, and the renowned Austin Bros. who give various exhibitions of the habits and vocations of the western men, cracking bull-whacking whips, marksmanship with rifles, shooting objects from each other's heads, &c., &c. It is unnecessary to say tha they will be greeted with a full house, for the name Buffalo Bill is always a guarantee for that.

Buffalo Bill was greeted by a full house again on Saturday evening. The most remarkable feature, we consider the shooting of the Austin Brothers, whose accuracy of aim was wonderful to behold

Buffalo Bill.

The celebrated hunter and scout, Buffalo Bill, with a combination consiting of all the old favorites who have in times past appeared here, and in addition the wonderful crack rifle shots, the Austin Brothers, the Sioux warriors, Two Bears and Cha-sha-cha-o-pogeo, will all take part in the thrilling drama of "May Cody, or Lost and Won," in Smyth's Hall Friday and Saturday evenings of this week. This play was written especially for Buffalo Bill by Major A. S. Burt, U. S. A., and like all the plays in which this famous scout takes part, it is full of hairbreadth escapes and curdling scenes that are sure of filling Smyth's Hall with people to its utmost capacity. There is something strangely fascinating about Buffalo Bill and his troupe, and people in this city will go time and again to witness their performances. The combination peforms here two nights, and we predict at each entertainment a crowded house.
