BUFFALO BILL'S DRAMA. - Hon. W. F. Cody,
(Buffalo Bill) and his dramatic company arrived
in town early this morning, and are making
arrangements for the presentation of the new
drama, "May Cody," at the theatre, this evening
and tomorrow night. The play is founded
on incidents connected with the Mountain
Meadow Massacre, and was written by Major
Burt of the regular army, an officer familiar
with the border wars in general, and the
massacre in particular. The Company
includes several Sioux Indians, who are
to appear upon the stage during the
presentation of the drama. The Austin
Brothers, already well known here as "cracks"
in the use of the rifle, are also of the company.
It will be remembered that Buffalo Bill is to be
credited with having drawn the largest house
ever at the theatre, and with a new and better
play there is every reason to expect that his
present visit will be marked by a repetition of
former successes.
