......The
Buffalo Bill Combination opened on Feb. 26 at Martin Hall for a three night's stay. Route: Schenectady, March 2, Utica 3, 4, Oswego 5, Syracuse 6, 7, Auburn 9, Rochester 10, 11."

The Buffalo Bill Combination gave performances at the Griswald Opera-house, Troy, N.Y., on Feb. 24, 25, to packed houses. The play "Life on the Plains" has been entirely rewritten, and exhibits a great improvement. The principal characters were sustained by Buffalo Bill, Texas Jack, Wild Bill, the new attraction, and a recent addition to the troupe, is a tall, fine-looking man, straight as an arrow, and looks like a genuine Indian fighter. Mlle. Morlacchi as Pale Dove received considerable applause. She also appeared to excellent advantage in the comedietta "Thrice Married," and sang admirably a cavitina from " Ernani." The company supporting the scouts is made up if good material. The receipts of the two performances amounted to over $1,900. J. B. Omohumdro (Texas Jack) while in Troy, bought a fine thoroughbred colt, very fast and promising, of J. A. Morrison.
