Buffalo Bill.

Buffalo Bill and his splendid combination
appeared last night at Rouse's opera
house, showing to a $400 house, which is a
fair sample of how Buffalo Bill is appreciated
in Peoria. The night was dark and
damp. It had rained all day, and the
streets were so muddy that pedestrianism
was anything but pleasant. Bill is the
same grand, noble man he always was,
and plays his part as only Wm. F. Cody
could play it. His leading lady, Miss
Jennie Gilbert, acts up to life, and appears
as though she was on the real
theater of action in the western wilds. She
is artless without being affected, saucy
without being hoydenish, and accepts
Bill's love with such charming simplicity,
that it seems real, and did not fail to bring
down the house.
