MOZART HALL-To a crowd of a newsboy, Exposition visitors, and lovers of the grape and canister drama, Buffalo Bill and his well heard of companions, Texas Jack and Wild BIIL, made their first bow for a brief Cincinnati season last night. The orchestra was crowded, and the galleries jammed. Long before the performance began the gallery patrons, reversing their chronic evening yells of Times chronic leallabouts- fire," with the wildest of whistling and stamping, called, "0, Jack! "0, Bill!" "Hoora!" "Bully for you!" "Set 'em up again!" "Gov. Allen forever," &c' For a while pandemonium prevailed. The windows rattled, and the old walls of Mozart fairly creaked. The first act was grand success, and a host of people were entertained. The first scene in which Morlacchi was to be introduced was not presented, for Morlacchi was not in Cincinnati to receive, an introduction. Cars behind time. The advertised fares. Thetes Married, in which Morlacchi figure conspicuously and sings will without fail, be presented to-night, The appearance of two Bills and Jacl himself and the mad Indians thrilled through and through the galleries, which had only just emerged from their pandemonium, and madder cheers than ever pierced the air and pierced the ears of the nervous spectators. The braves and border men who again and again sunk under the ruthless tomahawk and by the blank cartridge unerringly aimed, and who pluckily wouldn't die, made hit upon hit. Tableaux were uniformly. Buffalo Bill was a success and wild Bill a successor. The same entertainment to-night, with Thetes Married, added, and crowds and enthusiasm expected.
