BETWEEN SCENES. -Buffalo Bill
spent last evening at the Depot Hotel,
and since his troupe could give no
entertainment in Reno, he was kind
enough to give a private show himself.
His agent complained of Bill's conduct,
and accused him quite wrongfully.
He also being one of the sharpers
attempted to swindle the celebrated
out of $200. Words passed, and Bill
playing the agent was an Indian, went
for his scalp. Parties interfered and
prevented an interesting performance.
