Buffalo Bill.
Garrett's Hall last night was as full as it could well be with an audience eager to take in the "Knight of the Plains," and the attendant blood and thunder. The curtain rose on an opening farce, which being of the roaring nature, wrought the audience up to a good pitch, and when the Knight appeared soon after the second rising of the curtain, the building shook with the applause. The play passed off smoothly and everybody was satisfied, all the actors doing very creditably, the Indians being well up in their parts, as was also Buttermilk and his donkey. Buffalo Bill is undoubtedly a very handsome man, and his remarkable history throws a glamour of romance about him with powerful effect. His rifle shooting was good. Wild Nellie played a good hand, and Miss Nellie Jones as Rose Melton is the handsomest lady who has appeared on the stage in this city in a long while.

Buffalo Bill says Steubenville has more children in proportion to population than any other place on his route between Maine and California.
