PARADE - Don't forget the great: Indian parade Friday.

BUFFALO BILL - Last week was devoted to that remarkable shooter, Buffalo Bill, in a melo-drama, entitled, "The Prairie Waif." Matt Snyder as Buffalo Bill, is so handsome and gentlemanly a fellow that it is hard to believe that he passes so much time among the Indians. The "most beautiful Indian maiden" is as beautiful as we had hoped. The prin cipal character in "The Prairie Waif" is Bill's rifle, which taken very distinctly. - [Philadelphia Times. Don't fail to see them at City Opera House Friday evening.

BUFFALO BILL'S DUTCHMAN.--The story of Monday night at the Academy was repeated last night. A house so crowed that hundreds failed to gain admittance, and an audience wholly captured by the remarkably effective performance, attested the hold it has acquired upon the affections of Cleveland theater-goers.--[Cleveland Herald. At Opera House, Friday night.

Buffalo Bill's Dutchman and Prairie Waif will delight the frequenters of "goose heaven" to-night. The downstairs audience never grows tired of the noble red skin and fire of the same color, either.

The attendants at the Opera House on Friday night were agreeably surprised. The "Prairie Waif" is a very pleasing rep resentation of life on the frontier and was well put on the stage. The scenic effects, of which not much had been said, were first class, the prairie scene and Buffalo Bill's home being as fine speciments of stage setting as one would wish to see, and ranking with any heretofore given in this place, Mr. Pendy as Hans was immense and it is needless to say was popular with his audience. The songs by Mr. and Mis Pendy were also good. Pawnee Bill gave some fine examples of target shooting. The rattle of musketry in the last act, and the Indians were sufficien to excite the ambition of the most torpid small boy. It is a stirring drama, and one which should be a favorite with all who desire to witness pictures of a time and race fast vanishing. The orchestra was exceptionally good and Mr. Hazel's cortet solo deservedly applauded.
