Col. Cody and his variegated assembly of the
natives and beasts of the earth in their grand
entertainment at 63d street, opposite the World's
Fair grounds, are attracting almost as large
crowds, both afternoon and evening, as the
World's Fair. No other entertainment in the
city can show such popularity as to numbers in
attendance. Visitors should set to the grounds
as early as possible to enjoy a delightful walk
through the camp and see the various people in
their home life and pursuits. Then spend an
hour listening to the concert by the
Cowboy band before the performance.
The work of the Indians, cowboys, Mexicans,
Cossacks, Arabs and soldiers has
greatly improved since the opening and everything
now moves along as though on an oiled
track, and that too, with a swiftness and dash
that keeps the spectator busy wondering at the
great management that is able to produce such
results. The shooting by Col. Cody, Johnny
Baker and Miss Annie Oakley is a great feature
of the show and is always popular with the
audiences. The crowds during the week have
been immense, and every indication points to a
continuance of the big business all summer.
Every line of cars on the south side now lands
passengers directly at Buffalo Bill's grounds.
