Comstock's Opera House.

Buffalo BIll--This old time favorite will
appear with his specially selected company
at Comstock's to-night in Prairie Waif.
The cast is a large and strong one, and it
is supplemented with a band of Indians in
scalp and war dances, and a trained donkey.
The Cleveland Herald says: "The
play is a new one for this season, and has
some very pretty scenes. There is less
blood letting, fewer scalps taken and not
so many Indian forays as have occured in
pieces of this sort presented before. The
second act contains a love making scene
which Bill plays with a naturalness that
suggests great experience in younger days.
His fancy shooting is admirable. He has
a very good support, especially in Miss
Fletcher as Onita, Mr. Keene as Hans and
Mr. Charles as Captain Russell. The rest
of the support is good, and the Indians
add a most attractive picture.
