Buffalo Bill in his new play, "Twenty Days, or Buffalo Bill's Pledge," at Green's Opera House, next Wednesday night, Oct. 25th. Mr. Cody, (Buffalo Bill,) is making his eleventh consecutive tour, and brings with him a strong company, composing twenty-five first class artists. Of these, five are Indian chiefs from the Winnebago, Sioux and Pawnee tribes. Also the handsomest Indian Princess in the world, He-nukaw, (the first born) especially engaged to intensify the interest in the play by the representation of war dances, and the frontier frolics of the Aborigines. Cincinnati Enquirer: "Heuck's Opera House was crowded, last night, with an intelligent audience, who were delighted with Mr. Cody's new play, Twenty Days, or Buffalo Bill's Pledge.

Hon. W. F. Cody went out with some of the boys to the practice grounds of the Glass Ball Club, yesterday afternoon, but none of them would enter the lists with him. He took John Kirk's Winchester rifle and broke glass balls as fast as they could be thrown into the air.

Buffalo Bill celebrated his fifth anniversary in Vincennes, last night, to his usual good house, which included many of the best people of the city. The Border attraction does not pale in the "Old Post," and the average Hoosier bosom still loves to "thrill." The new play of Mr. Cody, "Twenty Day's or Buffalo Bill's Pledge," exactly suits his peculiar talent and afforded ample scope for heroic display. The support was fully as good as it ever was, and the audience seemed to be delighted -- especially with "Jerry" and "Boomblebeck." If we might be permitted to make a remark, we should say that the plot of the play lies too near the surface.
