WILD WEST.

The completeness of detail and the genuine
historic and educational realism of
Buffalo Bill's Wild West have made the
exhibition a pronounced success. It is now
no uncommon thing to see the vast covered
grand stand, which seats 18,000 people,
taxed to its capacity to accommodate the
enthusiastic audiences which attend the
picturesque performances. Every day,
Sundays included, and rain or shine, two
performances are given, afternoon and
evening. The Wild West is a most exhilarating
and enjoyable exhibition. Led
by the famous scout, Colonel W. F. Cody
(Buffalo Bill) in person, the representatives
of the rough riders of the world, the
most celebrated cavalry detachments, and
the picturesque Indians combine to give a
performance as novel as it is gratifying to
pleasure-seekers.
