Buffalo Bill Last Evening---Pinafore and
Other Engagements.

The house that greeted the appearance of
Buffalo Bill last evening was a large one. Although
very little was good in "Prairie Waif"
as a play, yet the enthusiasm of the audience
was unbounded, particularly in the galleries.
The fancy shooting of Buffalo Bill, from frequent
repetition at former entertainments, has
become quite ordinary, and has lost much of
its interest, Notwithstanding this and the defects
that abounded in the play, however, to the
lovers of the thunder and lightening style of
drama, Buffalo Bill will remain for many seasons
yet the attraction to those who turned out so
largely last evening to greet him. He leaves
the city well pleased with the results of his visit.

This evening the Juvenile Opera Company
will give "Pinafore." Former visits by this
troupe of juvenile artists have been successful
ones, and as months have elapsed since the
opera of "Pinafore" has been sung, the managers
have every reason to hope for the same
favorable reception this evening. There will
be forty voices in the chorus, with other attractions
to accord. The troupe is made of the
superior artists of three throupes which traveled
last season.
