SCR00007.184The Evening News AND TELEPHONE MONDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1887. The American Exhibition, and with it Buffalo Bill's "Wild West" Show, will close its long and brilliant season to-night. The popularity of Colonel Cody's graphic entertainment has been almost unprecedented, and that astute Westerner and his partner, Mr. Nate Salsbury, have managed to make a smart "pile" out of the enterprise. Well, no one begrudges them that, for they have given the Britishers good and full value for their money up to the last. The Wild West will make tracks to-morrow for Birmingham, and afterwards go on to Manchester. By the way, the show, when it winds up its career at Brompton to-night, will lose one of its principal attractions in the person of Miss Annie Oakley, who severs her connection with the Wild West voluntarily. Miss Oakley means to go in for a somewhat prolonged rest, after which we shall probably see her in London again in a different kind of entertainment. This week she goes down to Shropshire to join a shooting and hunting party at the house of a country magnate. Afterwards she intends visiting various places on the Continent. Little Sure Shot's personal urbanity, as well as her wonderful skill in her profession, will ensure her a warm welcome whenever she may decide to turn her footsteps Londonwards once more. Her loss to the Wild West Show will be a serious one. | SCR00007.184The Evening News AND TELEPHONE MONDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1887.
